Lamentations 2:18-19 (NIV)
18 The hearts of the people
cry out to the Lord.
You walls of Daughter Zion,
let your tears flow like a river
day and night;
give yourself no relief,
your eyes no rest.
19 Arise, cry out in the night,
as the watches of the night begin;
pour out your heart like water
in the presence of the Lord.
Lift up your hands to him
for the lives of your children,
who faint from hunger
at every street corner.

and plunder retrieved from the fierce;
I will contend with those who contend with you,
and your children I will save.

2 John 1:4 (NIV) It has given me great joy to find some of your children walking in the truth, just as the Father commanded us.
You, O Lord
Provide for our children
We
Lift up our hands and cry out in the night for our children
So that
All our children gather and come to us
You, O Lord
Tell us captives will be taken from warriors
We
Let the Lord contend with those who contend with us
So that
Our children—You, O Lord–will SAVE them!
You, O Lord
Will teach our children
So that
Great will be the peace of our children
OR
You, O Lord
Tell us we have rejected knowledge & ignored the law of God
We
Are destroyed, rejected
So that
The Lord ignores our children
Which do I choose? Will The Lord our God CALL ME? Will my children and I and all who are far off receive HIS PROMISE? The Father commanded us to walk in the truth and it brings Him great joy when He finds some of our children walking in HIS truth.
O Lord, God Almighty, I want to please YOU and be called by YOU, not rejected and ignored by You because I reject and ignore YOU. Thank You for your promises for our children. O Majestic Lord, we cry out to You and say thank You for saving our children.
In Jesus name. Amen
Which do you choose?
Are you seeking the Lord and learning His precious Word?
Are you walking with or without God?
Do you want the promises for yourself and your family?
