Wednesday, October 29, 2025Key Verse
“I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men.” 1 Timothy 2:1
Text — 1 Timothy 2:1-8
Message
There are many children in street corners, under bridges, at bus stations and many other places where they ought not to be found. Some of them ran away from their parents as a result of disobedience and stubborn heart. They join gangs and have become social misfits and trouble to the society. Is God happy that such children are in that condition? Of course, God is not happy at all. His desire for all of His creatures is that they do well.
As friends of Jesus. It is our duty to lift up our voices to intercede for these sets of children that we see in our society. Today we must pray for such boys and girls because Jesus loves them and does not want them to perish.
1. Thank God for His love towards all the children in the world.
2. Pray that the blood that Jesus shed on behalf of these ones will not be in vain.
3. Pray for those ones who are lost in sin to find salvation through Jesus, the Saviour.
4. Pray for God’s mercy on those children and to touch their hearts.
5. Pray that the heavenly Father will send help to them before it is too late.
6. Pray that God will bring them to the point of salvation and deliver them from their vices.
