Prayer is Our Mission

by Jun 2, 2017Missions

I believe I may have shared a little about this dream last year, but as I prayed into what God wanted me to write, this is what I heard; so here it is.

I remember some years back I had a dream that I was visiting a house that was full of children who were being abused and trafficked. My heart broke for them and I wanted to take them all with me as I left, but I could not. They were crying out to me to please help them and I felt so horrible that I could not save them right then and there! When I woke up, I cried out to God to show me what to do and He said for now I want you to PRAY! So I prayed and I continue to pray.

I have not yet been able to go on an actual “missions” trip to another country. I definitely feel called to go, and I will eventually, but for now, I will continue to pray for those trafficked children among other things. Will you join me in this prayer?

Dear God,

We come to you right now and cry out for freedom and justice for the children all over the world who are being trafficked!

We ask you, Lord, to break the poverty off the families that leads to most of these situations. Show us when and where to give financially as well in order to help. Show us how to implement more programs that are about prevention!

We ask you to provide more safe homes for the children to go to once they have been rescued. Give them homes where they are protected, valued, loved and taught how much Jesus loves them! We pray for restoration for them in their body, mind, and spirit.

We ask for justice in every situation of child trafficking! 

Luke 8:17 says, “For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be known or brought out into the open.”

Lord, let what is done in the darkness come into the light! Bring forth more people who will investigate and help put a stop to this. God, we ask you to go right now to each and every child that is being abused in this way and pour Your love out on them, breathe hope into their hearts, and lead us to find them!

We decree that every child will be rescued and restored!

In Jesus’ Name we pray. – Amen
