““Behold children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children of one's youth."
Psalm 127:3-4, ESV
Dear Praying Friends, As we embark on another school year, let’s be encouraged as intercessors, to pray for revival among the next generation! Let’s see our children as “spiritual champions,” their minds renewed by the Word of God and leading us into the next and largest revival ever experienced in the world.
The aftermath of COVID has caused so many youth to spiral into depression and even more to lose ground in their education. Depression has caused the suicide rate to escalate to heights never experienced in this country...BUT God! Nothing is too difficult for Him! We have an opportunity, through our prayers, to turn this negativity and depression around.
Let’s commit to praying God’s Word over our schools and youth. Let’s gather in groups claiming our young people back to God and believing that He is agreeing with our prayers. Yes, let’s pray that the worldview that our young folks have is consistent with the promises and principles found in God’s Word.
Let’s pray that the Holy Spirit ignites a passion in each student’s heart to go after God like never before. Pray also for a hunger and thirst for God’s Word in their hearts and minds. That like the Bereans, they will search the scriptures for answers they are looking for in their life journey, and once find it, they will be compelled to share with others.
As you may know, the For Columbus Kids Network is prayerfully anticipating the day when EVERY school in our city has a committed church partner. With over 100 Columbus City Schools and even more central Ohio schools, this vision may seem out of reach.
However, we know that prayer is POWERFUL and this initiative has been birthed out of and inspired by prayer! Please click on the link to download the PDF of our monthly prayer guide for our students and youth.
