Protect Our Little Ones, Lk 17:2, Matt 18:10, Know The Holy Scriptures from Their Youth, 2 Tim 3:15, Your Love, 1 Jn 4:10

[Nochaeld]

Father, we thank You AGAIN for Christ Our Good Shepherd, The Lord Jesus, John 10:11. We ask PROTECTION for them, thank You for these precious youngsters, that You care for us, even ALL OUR CHILDREN and EXTENDED FAMILY, Ps 23:3 Isa 40:11, Ezek 34:15, Rev 7:17. JESUS, Take care of tour little ones, comfort and feed them and us, for You have given us a Shepherd after Our Father's Heart, even Jesus, so kindly FEED THEM on wisdom and knowledge, Jer 3:15.

Give Your angels charge over my youngster, his cousins, and the family's "nieces and nephews," friends, parents, uncles, aunts and babysitters -- even all the children of those that congregate here and our fellow believers in spiritual battles, Ps 91:9-16, Heb 1:14. Strengthen our children, our brothers and sisters, even shepherd the entire flock of God among us, 1 Pet 5:2, Acts 20:28. Thank You for "mothers in Israel," and dads on here, who are on guard for not only themselves, but especially for the young ones from evil and warped wolves, Acts 20:28-29, evil people and imposters, 2 Tim 3:13, even if they are "clergy" or "ministers," Strengthen and heal any hurt youth, and give them all in the faith needed for intercession long-term (some of us are believing for YOUR protection remotely for OUR little ones) with power and might through the Holy Spirit to know the dimensions of Your love, Eph 3:14-18, even NOW shed the love of God abroad in their hearts by The Holy Spirit, Rom 5:5.

Be near (ALL AROUND) the little ones AND bind those wicked people in evil who are in need of deliverance, binding the enemy NOW, in the AUTHORITY of JESUS, Matt 28:18, until the proper time of deliverance by just saying the Word, Matt 8:8, and draw them, us and all around us to Jesus. Especially draw those weary and heavy laden, that You might give them rest, Your yoke is easy and burden is light, so they find rest for their souls, Matt 11:28-30.

Work everything out for the furtherance of the gospel, Phil 1:12, work EVERYTHING together for good, Rom 8:28, according to the counsel of YOUR WILL, Eph 1:11. We submit to GOD, resist the devil and it is written, "He will flee from us," James 4:7, 1 Peter 5:9, from demoniacs, Mark 16:15-17, from all, since the church YOU built on WHO YOU ARE AS THE MESSIAH will always prevail over the gates of hell, Matt 16:17-18. We pray the armor of God on this one, even now, keep their eyes from seeing, hearing or speaking evil, and their minds AND bodies to be KEPT FROM THE EVIL ONE AND EVIL PEOPLE, 2 Tim 3:13, 2 Thes 3:2, "See to it you do not cause one of these little ones to stumble for it would be better to be drowned with a millstone," Matt 10:42, Mk 9:42, Lk 17:2, "SEE TO IT YOU DO NOT DESPISE even ONE of these LITTLE ONES, for I (Jesus The Risen King) say to you their angels ALWAYS see the Face of Our Father," Matt 18:10. We thank You in advance, Mk 11:23-24, in Jesus' Name, Matt 28:18, Amen.

We join with you in lifting up the precious little ones to our Heavenly Father, the Good Shepherd, who lays down His life for His sheep (John 10:11). It is a sacred trust to guard and nurture the children He has entrusted to us, and we take this responsibility with the utmost seriousness. The Scriptures warn us clearly: "It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were thrown into the sea, than that he should cause one of these little ones to stumble" (Luke 17:2). This is not a light matter, it is a divine command to protect their innocence, their faith, and their very souls from the snares of the enemy.

We declare the promise of Psalm 91 over every child mentioned here: "For he will put his angels in charge of you, to guard you in all your ways. They will bear you up in their hands, so that you won’t dash your foot against a stone" (Psalm 91:11-12). Heavenly Father, dispatch Your angels to encamp around these little ones, their families, and all who care for them. Shield them from every form of evil, physical harm, spiritual deception, and the corrupting influences of this world. Let no weapon formed against them prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and let every plan of the enemy be thwarted in the mighty name of Jesus.

We also recognize the critical role of parents, guardians, and the body of Christ in this spiritual battle. The Scriptures charge us: "Shepherd the flock of God which is among you, serving as overseers, not by compulsion but willingly, not for dishonest gain but eagerly" (1 Peter 5:2). Fathers and mothers, we pray for divine wisdom and strength to raise these children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord (Ephesians 6:4). May they be like Timothy, who from childhood knew the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make one wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus (2 Timothy 3:15). Let the Word of God be the foundation of their lives, shaping their minds, hearts, and decisions.

We rebuke every spirit of deception, perversion, and violence that seeks to harm our children. The world grows increasingly dark, and the wolves are many, even disguised as shepherds (Acts 20:29). But we stand firm in the authority of Jesus Christ, who has given us power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy (Luke 10:19). We bind every evil influence, every corrupting voice, and every scheme of the devil that would seek to steal, kill, or destroy these young lives (John 10:10). In the name of Jesus, we command every lying spirit to flee, every plan of darkness to be exposed, and every stronghold to be torn down.

Father, we ask that You would surround these children with godly influences, mentors, teachers, and friends who will point them to You. Let them grow in wisdom, stature, and favor with God and man, just as Jesus did (Luke 2:52). Pour out Your Holy Spirit upon them, filling them with Your love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Galatians 5:22-23). May they come to know You intimately, walking in Your ways all the days of their lives.

We also pray for the parents and caregivers, strengthen them, Lord. Parenting is a high calling, and the pressures of this world can be overwhelming. Give them endurance, patience, and unwavering faith. Remind them that You are their source of strength and that Your grace is sufficient for every challenge (2 Corinthians 12:9). Let them lead by example, demonstrating a life of prayer, integrity, and devotion to You.

For those children who have already been wounded or led astray, we ask for Your healing touch. Restore what has been broken, mend what has been torn, and bring them back into the safety of Your fold. Let them experience the depth of Your love, which surpasss all understanding (Ephesians 3:18-19). Draw them close to You, Lord, and let them find their identity, worth, and purpose in Christ alone.

We declare that no weapon formed against Your children shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against them in judgment, You shall condemn (Isaiah 54:17). We stand on the promise that all things work together for good to those who love You and are called according to Your purpose (Romans 8:28). Even in the midst of spiritual battles, we trust that You are working all things for the advancement of the gospel and the glory of Your name.

Heavenly Father, we put on the full armor of God (Ephesians 6:10-18) and stand firm against the schemes of the devil. We take up the shield of faith, the helmet of salvation, the sword of the Spirit, and the belt of truth. We pray without ceasing, watching and praying lest we fall into temptation (Matthew 26:41). Strengthen us, Lord, for the battle is Yours, and the victory is already won through the blood of Jesus Christ.

We thank You, Father, for hearing our prayers. We trust in Your faithfulness and Your unfailing love. May these little ones grow up to be mighty men and women of God, shining as lights in this dark world. Keep them pure, keep them holy, and keep them wholly Yours. In the precious and powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, we pray. Amen.
