Children in Thailand

Key Scripture: Amos 5:24 (NIV)

24But let justice roll on like a river, righteousness like a never failing stream.

General Prayer Focus: Children in Thailand

Specific Prayer Focus: Protection from exploitation

Tidbit of Information: “Pray for the protection of innocent children in Thailand who are at risk of being sold into prostitution and the drug industry. Pray for the church in Thailand to be a strong force of justice on behalf of all the children who are affected by poverty and exploitation.” (Compassion International Prayer of the Day Email for May 1, 2010)

Prayer: Father, I thank You that You are leading Your church to be an expression of Your justice in the earth!  Today I pray for Your church in Thailand as they seek to bring justice on behalf of the impoverished children and that You would equip them to protect these precious ones from being exploited and oppressed.  Father, I ask that You would cause Your justice to roll on like a river, that these innocent children would be kept safe from the evil one who would seek to steal their innocence.  I pray that You would set Your angels around these ones and hold them safe in Your hands, that they would not fall into the hands of the wicked, but that they would be rescued by Your church and brought into Your Kingdom of love.  I pray that You would empower Your church to bring aid to these children and their families, that they would not have to live in fear, and that they could rise out of the pit of poverty.  I pray that You would provide for their every need so that these children would not fall victim to the prostitution and drug industry.  I pray that You would lead parents to the Compassion projects and programs so that their children can receive an education, food, and the love of God, in Jesus’ Name.  Amen!
