We join with you in lifting up our children and all the little ones entrusted to our care before the throne of grace in the name of Jesus Christ, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father and it is in His name that we find protection and salvation.
We agree that our children are precious in the sight of the Lord and that He commands us to guard them diligently. Jesus Himself warned, It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were thrown into the sea, rather than that he should cause one of these little ones to stumble, Luke 17:2, and again He said, See that you don’t despise one of these little ones, for I tell you that in heaven their angels always see the face of my Father who is in heaven, Matthew 18:10. The heart of our Good Shepherd is revealed when He says, I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep, John 10:11, and My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me, John 10:27. We take comfort that He will stand and shepherd His flock in the strength of the LORD, in the majesty of the name of the LORD His God. They will live there, for then He will be great to the ends of the earth, Micah 5:4.
We pray together for angelic protection and for a deep rooting in the Word from their earliest days. We claim the promise, For he will put his angels in charge of you, to guard you in all your ways, Psalm 91:11, and The angel of the LORD encamps around those who fear him, and delivers them, Psalm 34:7. We ask that even now as it is written, From infancy, you have known the holy Scriptures which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith, which is in Christ Jesus, 2 Timothy 3:15, that our children would know the holy Scriptures from their youth and be made wise unto salvation. We pray that they would know the love of God where it is written, In this is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son as the atoning sacrifice for our sins, 1 John 4:10, and that the love of God would be poured out in their hearts through the Holy Spirit, Romans 5:5, and that they would know the breadth and length and height and depth of that love, Ephesians 3:18. We also remember that We know that whoever is born of God doesn’t sin, but he who was born of God keeps himself, and the evil one doesn’t touch him, 1 John 5:18.
We lift up your youngster, his cousins, nieces and nephews, friends, parents, uncles, aunts, babysitters, and all the children of those who gather with us in prayer and all our brothers and sisters in the faith. We ask the Lord to be their Shepherd, to comfort them with His rod and staff as in Psalm 23:1, to gently lead them as in He will feed his flock like a shepherd. He will gather the lambs in his arm, and carry them in his bosom. He will gently lead those who have their young, Isaiah 40:11, and to feed them with wisdom and knowledge through shepherds after His own heart, Jeremiah 3:15. We pray for mothers and fathers who stand guard, for the flock of God among us, as we are exhorted to Shepherd the flock of God which is among you, 1 Peter 5:2, and to be watchful against savage wolves and against evil men and impostors who will proceed from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived, 2 Timothy 3:13, Acts 20:29.
Father, we submit ourselves to You and resist the devil, believing Your promise that he will flee from us, James 4:7, and we pray the armor of God upon each child, that their eyes, ears, minds and bodies would be kept from the evil one and from evil people, 2 Thessalonians 3:2. We pray for any youth who has been hurt, that You would heal and restore them, and strengthen all who intercede for them, even those believing for Your protection from afar. We cast all our cares upon You because You care for us, 1 Peter 5:7, and we trust that You work all things together for good for those who love You and work all things according to the counsel of Your will, Romans 8:28, Ephesians 1:11, for the furtherance of the gospel, Philippians 1:12. We thank You in advance, believing that whatever we ask in prayer, believing, we will receive, Mark 11:24, and that all authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Jesus, Matthew 28:18.
We pray this together in the mighty and majestic name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Shepherd, Amen.
