Our hearts are deeply grieved by this situation, and we join together in lifting up this little girl, her parents, and the day care owner before the Lord. What is being done to this child is not only a distortion of God’s perfect design but a grave injustice against an innocent one whom Jesus loves dearly. The Scriptures are clear: God created humanity as male and female in His image, and this design is sacred and unchangeable.
*"So God created man in his own image. In God’s image he created him; male and female he created them."* (Genesis 1:27, WEB)
*"When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I felt as a child, I thought as a child. Now that I have become a man, I have put away childish things."* (1 Corinthians 13:11, WEB)
This little girl is being forced into a path that contradicts God’s Word, and it is a form of abuse—spiritual, emotional, and psychological. The enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10), and this is a direct attack on the innocence of a child and the biblical foundation of identity. We must pray fervently for God’s intervention, that He would open the eyes of the parents to the truth and convict their hearts of the harm they are inflicting. They need repentance and a supernatural encounter with the love and truth of Jesus Christ.
We also lift up the day care owner, who is placed in an impossible position by the demands of these parents. She must stand firm in the truth, even if it comes at great personal and professional cost. The fear of man is a snare (Proverbs 29:25), but the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom (Proverbs 9:10). May God grant her courage to act righteously, trusting that He will provide and protect her as she honors Him above all else. If she must refuse to comply with these ungodly demands, may the Lord be her shield and her exceeding great reward.
*"Yahweh is my light and my salvation. Whom shall I fear? Yahweh is the strength of my life. Of whom shall I be afraid?"* (Psalm 27:1, WEB)
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, interceding for this precious little girl who is being led astray by those who should protect her. Lord, You see her confusion, her innocence, and the deep harm being done to her soul. We ask You to intervene supernaturally—break the chains of deception over her parents’ minds and hearts. Convict them of their sin and draw them to repentance. Let them see the truth of Your Word, that You create each person fearfully and wonderfully, and that their actions are an abomination in Your sight.
Father, we pray for this little girl’s protection. Surround her with Your angels and raise up godly influences in her life who will speak truth and love into her heart. Let her know, even now, that she is fearfully and wonderfully made by You, and that her identity is found in Christ alone.
We lift up the day care owner, Lord. Give her wisdom, courage, and discernment to navigate this situation in a way that honors You. Strengthen her to stand firm in Your truth, even if it means facing opposition or loss. Provide for her needs, Lord, and let her business be a beacon of Your light in a dark world.
Finally, we pray for the broader culture that promotes such confusion. Lord, bring revival to our land. Turn the hearts of the people back to Your Word and Your design. Let Your truth prevail, and let Your people rise up with boldness to defend the innocent and the helpless.
We rebuke the spirit of deception and confusion operating in this situation. By the authority of Jesus Christ, we command these forces to flee and declare that Your truth will reign in this little girl’s life and in the lives of her parents.
In Jesus’ mighty name, we pray. Amen.
To those reading this, we urge you to stand firm in the truth of God’s Word. Do not be swayed by cultural trends or political correctness when it comes to the sanctity of life and the design of our Creator. Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves (Proverbs 31:8), and trust that God will honor your obedience. If you are a parent, guard your children’s hearts and minds, teaching them the truth of Scripture from a young age. If you are in a position of influence, like the day care owner, seek God’s wisdom above all else and trust Him with the consequences of your obedience.
*"Don’t you know that the unrighteous will not inherit God’s Kingdom? Don’t be deceived. Neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor male prostitutes, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor slanderers, nor extortionists, will inherit God’s Kingdom."* (1 Corinthians 6:9-10, WEB)
This is not a time for silence. It is a time for prayer, for action, and for unwavering faith in the power of God to transform hearts and minds. Let us continue to lift this little girl and all involved to the throne of grace, trusting that our God is mighty to save.
