LIGHT FOR THE WAY
(Daily Devotional)
"I prayed for this child" (1Samuel 1:27)
GUIDE YOUR CHILD'S DESTINY THROUGH PRAYERS
Every saints was once a child, so was every criminal. What makes the difference? At the top of the list is the influence of parents! The prophet Samuel led the nation of Isreal for forty years, anointed David to be king and guided him in some of his most crucial decisions. But who was the most dominant influence in Samuels's life? His mother Hannah. Listen to her prayer at his birth: 'I prayed his whole life will be given over to the Lord..."(1Samuel 1:27NIV). Never underestimate the power that's released when a parent prays on behalf of a child. Only God knows how many prayers are being answered right now because of a faithful parent who prayed many years ago. If what you are doing in this fast paced world is keeping you away from praying for your children and grand children, then you are doing too much! There is nothing more important than the time spend with God on their behalf. It's not too late for a child that brought you grief and tears. Jesus' mother had to watch her son being crucified, she also had the joy of seeing Him raised again from the dead. Indeed, you may go to your grave wondering if your prayers are effective and when they will be answered, but never, never stop praying, because: (a) God works according to His schedule not ours (b) His ways and means are superior to ours (c) When parents prays God moves!
Prayer Point
Father I re-dedicate my Children to you, let their lives glorify your name in Jesus name
Daily Bible Reading
Isaiah 45-46; Galatians 4:21-31; Galatians 5:1-6; Psalm 108:6-13
