Continuing to work alongside state and local officials the U.S. Marshals Service announced over the weekend it had rescued another 25 missing and endangered children from Ohio.

The missing children, between the ages of 13 and 18, were found in Cleveland, East Cleveland, Euclid, Willoughby, and even Miami, Florida, WOIO-TV reported.

“These are kids that have been abused, neglected,” said U.S. Marshal Pete Elliott. “Some involved in human trafficking. Sometimes, the situations they — they go to, believe it or not, maybe better than the situations they left from. We’ve had some cases where the mother and/or father, or both, may have been prostituting their own child.”

These rescues, which come on the heels of yet another success by the U.S. Marshals Service, aren’t of “Operation Safety Net,” an initiative that will continue for a few more weeks, according to officers involved in the process. . . .

“A number of these children have gone to the hospital after we’ve recovered them to get checked out, so again, this is something we take very seriously. I’ll tell you this: it will be something we’ll be doing every year. This is our first time we have done this. It’s been uncharted territory for us. But we’ve had great success.”

Assisting the U.S. Marshals Service in Ohio has been the Northern Ohio Violent Fugitive Task Force, the Cleveland Division of Police, the Cuyahoga County Sheriff’s Department, the East Cleveland Police Department, and the Newburgh Heights Police Department, the Mansfield News Journal reported.

Last week, it was revealed that “Operation Not Forgotten” led to the rescue of 26 missing children and the location of 13 others in Georgia and Florida. Of those 39 victims, authorities reported 15 of them were being human- and sex-trafficked. . . .

Editor’s Note: There was a third effort called  “Operation Moving Target”, which “led to the arrest of 27 men in Ohio who had been engaging in sexually explicit conversations with undercover agents posing as children.”

“As we have seen the number of cyber tips dramatically increase this year, it is clear that online predators remain a serious threat to our children,” said Cuyahoga County Prosecutor Michael O’Malley. “Hopefully, the success of yet another operation serves as a stern warning to offenders that you will be found, you will be arrested, and you will be prosecuted.”

The 27 suspects arrested range in ages between 21 and 61, WOIO-TV reported.

Thank You Father. We will not stop striking the ground until all of these missing, trafficked children are found and safe. Lord, we need supernatural resources and safe places for these children to live if they cannot go home to their families. We need those who, in the Body of Christ, love children and know how to counsel them Your Way. Father, we thank you for the law enforcement agents that are finding these children and setting the captives free. May each of the ones that are responsible for this receive Your Justice. Lord, cause the ones that are in the deep state or otherwise, to be revealed as the ones who are financing the traffickers. Lord, cause the supply and demand chain to disintegrate not only in America but in the nations of the world. Without the demand their will be no supply. Amen.

Thank you Jesus for answering prayer and revealing where these children were so they could be rescued and brought to a safe place. Thank you for exposing the enemy and their locations so they could be apprehended and taken into custody. Bring healing to the hearts and minds of these children and restore them completely. Let those that are doing this evil get caught in Jesus’ name! Continue to expose the darkness and bring it to light, Lord! In Jesus Name!

Thank You, Gracious Father, for rescue from the enemy of children made in Your image defiled by man and our enemy for evil. Heal them fully and bring them to a saving knowledge of Jesus that they may take their place in our society for their gifts and their enrichment in body, soul and spirit.

Heavenly father, I thank you for the rescuing and safety of these children. Thank you for hearing and answering our prayers.
I pray that you would pour out your goodness on this nation, and that we would repent as a nation for allowing these precious children to be enslaved.
May Your Word be a lamp to the feet of the victims and rescuers, and may Your glory be their rearguard. I pray that the Truth in Christ be revealed to these children, their guardians, and rescuers. Please lead these victims to godly christians who understands salvation, deliverance, and healing. Dear Jesus, I thank you ahead of time for the testimonies of these children, that will help provide counsel to those who have yet to be rescued.
Please let your righteous indignation over these crimes spread throughout the nation. Help our leaders to create harsh penalties for those who prey on children, so future predators would be deterred from wickedness and turn to You for forgiveness.
Please give us the boldness to stand up for these children, and say all children’s lives matter! To Abba Yahweh be the glory! In the name of Jesus! Amen

Dear Triune God, in Jesus’ Name, I thank you for all efforts made to rescue children who are victims of human trafficking. Provide all that is needed for the U. S. Marshal’s Service to do their work. Protect the children and all those who work to rescue them. Keep them from all harm and danger. Deliver children from all evil. Put fear of reprisal in all those who would even think of abusing children in any way, and, Lord, put an end to this horrible practice. Turn the perpetrators from the realms of darkness into Your light. Amen

Father God, please be with these precious children and protect them and cleanse their minds from all that had been done to them. I pray that they are in the care of loving parents or new guardians. Guard their hearts and don’t let bitterness creep in Father God. Pour your love over each one of them. In Jesus’ mighty name Amen!

Father God thank you for hearing and answering the prayers of those with the burden for human trafficked women and children. Thank you for shedding light and assisting the authorities in finding and rescuing the children and arresting the adults involved. Father it is only the surface of the problem. Father we need stronger laws protecting the victims and prosecuting those abusing the victims. Make us more aware, call us to stand for justice for the victims. You are a wonderful loving Father. You created the children and women to glorify you. The enemy has tried to destroy them. In Jesus name restore what the enemy has stolen from these precious children. Heal their emotions and bodies and let them know how much you value them. In Jesus name I pray with other intercessors across the earth.

Oh Lord, lead vigilantly and swiftly, those in law enforcement, guiding them by Your Heavenly Host, exposing all leading and in this heinous crime, bringing the perpetrators to justice, freeing the children and healing the children. That Your light is and will continue to expose these evil doers, bringing all of them to justice. Thank You Lord! Amen.

6 For God, Who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭4:6‬ ‭KJV‬‬

11 For He shall give His angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways. 12 They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone. 13 Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet. 14 Because He hath set His love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known My name.

‭‭Psalms‬ ‭91:11-14‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Thank you Father God fir answering our prayers that children are rescued and perpetrators are brought to justice. We pray healing fir these children of this trauma. We pray continued success fir those who rescue these children. Matthew 10:26 so have no fear of them, for nothing is covered that it will not be revealed, or hidden that will nit be made known.

I dont think people are going to realise what an all pervasive thing the trafficked children and the tunnels is unless Trump or someone reveals the magnitude to the people. 40 children here and there doesnt confront people enough. the true size of the problem needs to be revealed leading to the corruption of the system, for them to get behind Trump.
Is it true that 3/9 he will be announcing something extended via social media.

Yes!!!!!!! And thank God for all the efforts to rescue these children out of such circumstances. May God bless and protect those involved in these efforts and give them great success across this nation. I also pray that more of the perpetrators are caught and punished to the letter of the law. Thank God for those all across our land that are wearing the uniforms that place their lives on the line to bring this kind of results.

Praise God for answering my prayers. This is what I pray about all the time. I only wish that the authorities continue looking for these children everyday and not yearly. I am asking everyone to pray daily for these children that are still out there to be found and for healing for the ones that were that our God will erase the horrible memories of what was done to them. I will be praying for complete healing.

Lord I am so thankful that theses children have been rescued from this heroic crime they were forced to be in. Heal their scars and put their faith in you. Please Lord bring them healing to them and justice for the ones who exploited them.
If anyone causes one of these little ones, those who believe in me, to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.
Matt 18:6

    Gale, probably you meant to say ‘horrific’ rather than ‘heroic’ . Thankful more of these efforts are successful and agree they should be ongoing rather than annual!
