Prayers for the youth and marriages ~ 14 Aug 2009 1 Corinthians 12:26 If one suffers, every part suffers with it; if one part is honoured, every part rejoices with it.

We pray for our children and the importance in building strong values, today we focus our prayers on what it means to honour our parents. Lord, it disgusts me how many children and youth do not respect their parents and those who are older. It is time we discipline our children O Lord. In the name of Jesus we pray right now that You would bestow on every parent, father, mother, the ability to correct our children. Lord, the longer we prolong discipline the hard it will be for our children in the future. It is time O Lord! It is time the next generation begin to change. Open their eyes! May they begin to see what is of You and what is not. In Jesus name we pray, amen. � 2009 Lee Shaun Tzen

Father, we thank you right now for every marriage. We pray for those that are currently facing separation. Lord, help us to remember the Word of God through these times. We pray for open hearts. Hearts willing to listen and accept wise counsel from You O Lord. In the name of Jesus, we pray You would send angels to guard and protect every marriage. Even for couples that do not know You as their Lord and saviour. Today, we pray that many will come to know You through the pains of divorce. Lord we claim every life, every marriage, and every family Yours. In Jesus name, open our eyes, hearts, mind, soul, and senses. We need to be consumed by You in order to love our spouses. We thank You right now for the many miracles going to take place right now. In Jesus name we pray, amen.
