Let me sum it up in a much more practical & realistic statement of fact. 1 in 4 youth saying they are part of the “alphabet community”….is nothing more than the confusion that reigns in young people’s lives today. Confusion regarding identity, for youth, has always existed. Today’s media lies, Hollywood perversion influences & constant force feeding of immoral or abnormal being normal, no balance or truth being taught in public education sexuality, etc. – that’s driving the confusion mindset. Additionally, too much youth has access to points, where everything is upside down & completely outside of God’s design for his creation.
If 1 of 4 youth says they are “alphabet”, don’t buy into it. We’re not going to buy into it or panic but instead, pray against the forces of evil & take action to guide our youth out of that temporary confusion & conflict.
Father, you are bringing many Gen-Zers to yourself for salvation. May we in the older generation love them, pray for them, and disciple them. Hover over each one and may they find their lives in you.
The devil is a liar – there is no truth in him. He goes about seeking who he can devour – Children with stability at home and children without stability at home. Lord protect our children and reveal the enemy’s plan for our children so we can put a stop to it and do so boldly!
Recent experience with young adults gave a new outlook on rebellion.
These “teens” decided they wanted independence so they are making home life difficult while they “try out the effects” of lesbianism encounters. Smoking weed. Getting drunk at all night parties.
Unfortunately, parent said get a job. You have a car to support. But this “hung over” attitude carries into the workplace where it’s tolerated for a while.
I now pray without ceasing for the re turn of the prodigal and that peers have strength to continue God’s plan for their life. Amen and Amen
I live in a small rural community, less than 4,000. The children in public school are given inappropriate books to read, and my 14 year old granddaughter is very uncomfortable with “health” class. I asked her why and she said she doesn’t understand why they have to know about “sex” and other teachings. Fortunately, they don’t have the alphabet problem. People here have gotten the protesters out as quickly as they tried to come in. It has taken much prayer and knowing that we can’t stop, we have added those throughout the nation that Yeshua will protect and send His people into the battle zones. We are encouraged that we do know the end and our prayers are not in vain. I would like to send encouragement to those of you that are dealing with this. Keep your eyes looking up, our Father knows what’s happening and He does hold the future! I’d like you to know that no one is alone in anything that’s happening in the world. God bless!
Heartbreaking! I’m praying that the enemy won’t be able to deceive these children. They should be finding their identity in Christ, not the world!
I pray against the forces of darkness. in 1 Peter 5:8 tells us that our adversary, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.
We know the enemy wants our children; he wants to pull them away from us, from their faith, and from the one true God. We also know that Satan is crafty, and he tries to pull our children away in a variety of ways: by temptation, distractions, deception, etc. When we pray to God, asking for our children to be protected from Satan, we should remember that we aren’t praying to a distant, indifferent entity. No! We’re praying to the King of Kings and Lord of Lords! We’re praying to the I AM, who loves our children more than we do and who cherishes their souls more than we can even comprehend!
I would just add that this has put the Christian church in a major conundrum. When Barack Obama was President of the U.S., he lifted the scarlet letter of what was homosexuality in America. Before that, homosexuals were maligned, forced to “stay in the closet”. They were often abused and even killed for acting out on their orientations.
While it may make us uncomfortable, it has brought homosexuality to the table for Christians and the church in a way never seen before. Christians can no longer just waive the fact that this is a thing, force their version of “love and tolerance” on those who have these preferences and live these lifestyles, or otherwise turn a blind eye to what was conveniently swept under the rug because Christians had political influence for so long. Homosexuality is not unique to America, nor is it unique to the times (as made abundantly clear in the Bible). What is new is a flagrant disregard for Christian freedom (now the tables have turned on bakers, flourists for example), and a literal pride over sinful condition. But are the sins of “Christians” in the church battling porn addiction or pastors who are caught in infidelity scandals really any less repulsive before God?
We do know that the Bible has strong language against those who practice this lifestyle, but sexual immorality is not just uniquely a homosexual’s problem. This should humble the church to do more, pray more, out love them. After all, we are only fooling ourselves owning a Christian brand but not the substance that goes with it. What would Jesus do?
Please write letters and present at your school board meetings.
Please request each person running for the school board in your area write a summary of what they stand for etc.
It starts with the children and the evil darkness knows this so please take a stand and let your voices be heard in America!
Lord of renewal and revival, send your mighty Spirit of rebirth to our nation, floundering in the miry pit of deceptive and desrructive choice. Bring your wind of Truth and true freedom of the children of God to our young people. Let it blow across college and school campuses across our nation, revealing your Way, Truth and Life to our youth. Amen
😔😪 Lord, may we who know You and have this Treasure in Jesus Christ be willing to share it with the younger generations.
