DATE: THURSDAY 17TH NOVEMBER 2022

TOPIC: PRAYERS FOR OUR CHILDREN

MEMORISE:
“Behold, I and the children whom the LORD hath given me are for signs and wonders in Israel from the LORD of hosts, which dwelleth in mount Zion.” Isaiah 8:18 (KJV)

READ: PSALM 127:3-5
3 Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.

4 As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth.

5 Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate.

PRAYERS:
1. Thank You Jesus for Your mercy and favour that has kept our children; I return all the glory to You, Lord.

2. Father, I pray that Your great mercy will single out our children for good in their generation in Jesus’ name.

3. Father, please let Your voice guide our children in all that they do. Let no voice lead them astray, in Jesus’ name.

4. Father, let it be well with our children’s future. Make them great men and women in Jesus’ name.

5. Father, by Your mercy, please prosper our children greatly. Prosper them so they never lack any good thing.

6. Father, as You caused Samuel to hear Your voice, please let all our children hear and know Your voice clearly from today, in Jesus’ name.

7. Father, I decree that no weapon formed against our children will prosper in Jesus’ name. Our children will not be victims of evil people in Jesus’ name.

8. Father, give our children a deep passion for soul-winning in Jesus’ name. Teach them how to be fishers of men in Jesus’ name.

9. Father, please let Your face shine upon our children. Be gracious unto them in Jesus’ name.

10. Father, cause our children to find unlimited favour before You and everyone in Jesus’ name.

11. My Father, the Great Way Maker, please continue to make a way for our children in all their endeavours in Jesus’ name. Our children will never know shame because of Your love in Jesus’ name.

12. Your special prayer requests for all the children around you and in your local assembly.

HYMNAL: 22 – SWEET HOUR OF PRAYER! SWEET HOUR OF PRAYER!

1 Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer!
that calls me from a world of care,
and bids me at my Father’s throne
make all my wants and wishes known.
In seasons of distress and grief,
my soul has often found relief,
and oft escaped the tempter’s snare
by thy return, sweet hour of prayer!

2 Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer!
the joys I feel, the bliss I share
of those whose anxious spirits burn
with strong desires for thy return!
With such I hasten to the place
where God my Savior shows his face,
and gladly take my station there,
and wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer!

3 Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer!
thy wings shall my petition bear
to him whose truth and faithfulness
engage the waiting soul to bless.
And since he bids me seek his face,
believe his word, and trust his grace,
I’ll cast on him my every care,
and wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer!
