Father God I ask in the mighty name of your son Jesus that you protect, cover and take hold of our children, all of our children. I ask that you give them not only the ability to look to you but the will and desire, I ask that you come to them throughout the day to guide them when they want to make a wrong decision, that you show them that there is a better way, that guns, fighting, drugs and the sex trade are not your way.
Father this is your world, these are your children you are in control. Father I ask that you show me how I can be a better example for them, not just mine but those around mine, those in the neighborhood. I want the young ladies to see that it is ok to be clean and presentable, they don't have to turn to sex for love and I want the young men to see what it is to respect women, to love women without saying sex is required.
Father show them what it is to care and provide for their families. I want them to see all of this despite what is put before them in the media. Father you have given us the authority to step on the devil's neck and to break his stronghold on our lives so I pray that we have the strength and desire to do just that. Our children need to see better examples of you in us the adults, they need better options to choose from, they need You Lord. Father I ask all of these things in Jesus' name, Amen.
