If you're like us, you love the kids at Radiant! You think about them and think about how you can help them know God's love and grow in Him. You probably wish there's more that we could do to help them beyond the weekend. Well there is something we can do, something vital -- we can PRAY!
In Ephesians 6, Paul writes,
"Never stop praying, especially for others. Always pray by the power of the Spirit. Stay alert and keep praying for God's people. Pray that I will be given the message to speak and that I may fearlessly explain the mystery about the good news." Ephesians 6:18-19 (CEV)
Paul writes this after he tells us how to guard against spiritual attacks. I believe Paul closes with his appeal for prayer because of how important it is to pray for others and to pray for those who lead in ministry.
Prayer for God's hand on our kids and prayer for our volunteers and staff is powerful! In Mark 11:23-25, Jesus tells us, "If you have faith in God and don't doubt, you can tell this mountain to get up and jump into the sea, and it will. Everything you ask for in prayer will be yours, if you only have faith."
Maybe you're already a prayer warrior for HD, if you are, THANK YOU! If it's not something you've tried yet, please join us in doing one of the most essential things we can for our children -- please pray for them, for their families, and for all of us that care for them each week.
So, lets "never stop" praying for God's protection on our kids and for their growth in Him!
