- 0:00Speaker 1: Good morning. It is time for us to go to
- 0:02Speaker 1: God in prayer, and as always I ask that you
- 0:05Speaker 1: join along with me in prayer. Today is Wednesday, Youth
- 0:09Speaker 1: and Young Adults Day. I want to pray for our
- 0:13Speaker 1: young people and if I can be honest, those of
- 0:16Speaker 1: us that are not so young, that are dealing with
- 0:20Speaker 1: peer pressure. You know, somebody trying to get you to
- 0:23Speaker 1: do something because that's the thing they're doing, or that's
- 0:26Speaker 1: the thing they want you to do. Oftentimes, our children
- 0:29Speaker 1: get caught up in things, and adults get caught up
- 0:34Speaker 1: in things because we're following the crowd, so to speak,
- 0:38Speaker 1: Father God, in the name of Jesus Christ, I just
- 0:41Speaker 1: come to you, God, praying for our children. God, and
- 0:45Speaker 1: even us as adults. God, help us not to give
- 0:48Speaker 1: in to peer pressure. Help us to be led by
- 0:51Speaker 1: You and you alone. Give us wisdom. God, and even
- 0:55Speaker 1: who should be in our inner sphere and circle of influence.
- 0:59Speaker 1: Strengthen our children God against peer pressure, that they may
- 1:02Speaker 1: always stand strong against the enticements to do wrong. You
- 1:06Speaker 1: said in your words and proverbs one in ten, my son,
- 1:09Speaker 1: if a sinner entices, you do not consent. So Father,
- 1:13Speaker 1: I pray right now, Well, God, for godly friends and
- 1:15Speaker 1: influences in our children's life. I pray for constructive friendships. Father,
- 1:21Speaker 1: lead our children and connect them to friends and influences
- 1:26Speaker 1: in their life that will lead them away from bad company.
- 1:30Speaker 1: First Corinthians fifteen thirty three says, do not be misled.
- 1:34Speaker 1: Bad company corrupts good character. So Father, I thank you
- 1:38Speaker 1: for a hedge of protection around us, around our children,
- 1:42Speaker 1: around our family. Take the blinders off, God, and let
- 1:45Speaker 1: us be able to see people the way that you
- 1:48Speaker 1: see people. Don't let us be misled by those that
- 1:51Speaker 1: are bad company. If you will. You told us to
- 1:55Speaker 1: train our children and the way that they should go,
- 1:59Speaker 1: and with their all, they won't depart from it. So Father,
- 2:02Speaker 1: I pray that they will remember their ruster, They will
- 2:05Speaker 1: remember your words that you will Father move on their
- 2:09Speaker 1: hearts and trouble their hearts. God when they fall into
- 2:12Speaker 1: various temptations, that they'll remember their foundation in you. We
- 2:18Speaker 1: thank you for the hedge of protection around our children.
- 2:21Speaker 1: We plead the blood of Jesus over our children. You
- 2:24Speaker 1: keep them from all hurt, all harm, all danger in
- 2:28Speaker 1: Jesus' name. Amen,
