Prayers for the youth and marriages ~ 17 Oct 2009 1 Corinthians 12:26 If one suffers, every part suffers with it; if one part is honoured, every part rejoices with it.

O Lord our awesome and all powerful God. We pray right now for the lives of all our children. We thank You for their health, their joy, their tempers, their naughtiness, their laughter, their uniqueness. IN THE NAME OF JESUS, HELP US TO LOVE THEM THE WAY YOU LOVE THEM. In the name of Jesus we pray for all Your children who have lost their parents, who are orphans, who have been left abandoned. In the name of our Lord, YOUR IDENTITY IS IN CHRIST. YOU DO NOT NEED ANY OTHER THAN HIM. We pray for strength right now for every child. God has an amazing plan, do not throw it away. Do not achieve false happiness. You have been made for a reason. Declare the promises of God right now. In His name we pray, amen. � 2009 Shaun Lee

Lord Jesus, we pray for families today. We pray that families would be strengthen and firmly planted in the Word of God. We pray for transformation. We pray that fathers and mothers would change their priorities in life. Today, it is time for self-check. Have we consumed all our time in our work and other distractions in life. Have we neglected our time with our children? Every second counts. We must not waste time building with our children. We pray that couples would make an effort to spend quality time together away from the world, away from children, and other distractions. It is time to build together, praying, reading the Word, and worshiping God today. Today, God is going to change the world through families. In Jesus name we pray, amen.
