Are the Children In?
"I will pour My Spirit on your descendants, and My blessing on your offspring."
~ Isaiah 44:3
"Our dear children have not the Spirit of God by nature as we plainly see. We see much in them that makes us fear as to their future, and this drives us to agonizing prayer. This verse should greatly encourage us. It follows upon the words, "Fear not, O Jacob, My servant," and it may well banish our fears.
The Lord will give His Spirit; will give it plentifully, pouring it out; will give it effectively, so that it shall be a real and eternal blessing. Under this divine outpouring our children shall come forward and "one will say, 'I am the Lord's; another will call himself by the name of Jacob."
This is one of those promises concerning which the Lord will be inquired of. Should we not pray for our offspring? The great Father takes pleasure in the prayers of fathers and mothers." (By: Charles H. Spurgeon ~ One Minute Devotions)

PLEASE PRAY THIS PRAYER WITH ME THIS MORNING. OUR FATHER WHO ART IN HEAVEN, HALLOWED BE THY NAME. THY KINGDOM COME, THY WILL BE DONE ON EARTH, AS IT IS IN HEAVEN. GIVE US THIS DAY OUR DAILY BREAD. FORGIVE US OF ALL OUR SINS, OUR DEBTS, AND OUR TRESPASSES AGAINST YOU AND MAN. AS WE FORGIVE THOSE WHO ARE INDEBTED TO US, AND THOSE WHO HAVE TRESPASSED AGAINST US. AND LEAD US NOT INTO TEMPTATION, BUT DELIVER US FROM ALL EVIL:FOR THINE IS THE KINGDOM, AND THE POWER, AND THE HONOR, AND THE GLORY, FOREVER. IT IS IN CHRIST JESUS' PRECIOUS NAME, AMEN!
