WHAT IS IT
It is a Guide for Children and Parents to pray for Children in need/crisis/danger. There are 25 or 26 prayer points related to concerns of needy Children in a particular state or a country, every month. Thus, there are 12 issues of needy Children or the needs of children in 12 regions, that thepraying children and parents could focus on. There is a Scripture portion for the children to read and to have a discussion on it with their parents or care takers, every day. Every Wednesday, there is a verse for children and parents to memorize and to confess as it would build them up in faith and action.
WHY ENCOURAGE CHILDREN AND PARENTS TO PRAY?
It's God's doing and is based on His promise
God ordained strength and praise in the mouth of babes and children to silence His enemies and the avenger (Psalm 8:2, Matt.21:16). He promised to pour out His Spirit on our offspring and His blessing on our descendants. (Isaiah 44:3) Quite a few children experience His strength manifesting in and through them when praying and praising. The experiences of a few children given below confirm it.
God wants to Parents to be models to their children – Deuteronomy 6:6
God commands Parents to teach His word to their children diligently Deuteronomy 6:4-7 and Psalm 78:2-8
It is the desire of Christ, our Lord
Jesus said, “Let the little Children come to me do not hinder them”
God wants our Children to commune with Him.
It is the responsibility of the Parents
We need to train a child in the way she/he should go. (Prov.22:6).A praying child of today can become a praying youth of tomorrow and a praying youth will become a praying adult/parent.It is the responsibility of every parent to train their children in prayer.Every Christian homeneeds to be a school of prayer and every parent to be a model/trainer of prayer for her/his children.There are enough examples of Parents as Models of Prayer who motivated their Children to be Prayer Warriors
It is the need of the hour
The desire/thirst for prayer seems to be waning in homes and churches.The interest and importance given to prayer 15 to 20 years ago, is sadly missing in us. It is our responsibility to train the next generation in prayer.
