This is a disheartening trend in the younger generations of our country. We must pray that these youth find their identity in Christ.
From Breitbart. The number of America’s young people identifying as transgender has almost doubled recently, with citizens ages 13 to 25 accounting for a disproportionate number of that population, according to a new study….
Have you taken your place on the wall?
While only 0.5 percent of all adults identify as transgender, according to the data, 1.4 percent of 13- to 17-year-olds identify as transgender as well as 1.3 percent of 18- to 24-year-olds.
Furthermore, while young teenagers represent about 7.6 percent of the total U.S. population, they also made up about 18 percent of transgender-identifying youth. Similarly, the 18- to 24-year-old age cohort makes up about 11 percent of the total U.S. population but represents 24 percent of the total population identifying as transgender.
That sits in stark contrast to the previous iteration of the study, published in 2017, which found only 0.7 percent of both young-adult age groups identifying as transgender — showing transgenderism nearly doubling in commonality.
While some pro-gender ideology doctors argue that the increase, at some level, can be attributed to increased social acceptance of the identity, the data also shows the results differentiating state by state, which might suggest a community influence on those who identify as transgender….
While some doctors on the left advocate for hormone treatments, puberty blockers, and even genital mutilation surgery as the proper avenues for treating young persons who believe they are transgender, a new study suggests that such methods actually spike the already high likelihood of transgender youth suicide.
As Breitbart News reported, “The report directly challenges claims from pro-transgender clinical organizations, activists, and the Biden administration that puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones reduce suicides of minors who believe they are the opposite sex….”
How are you praying for those affected by the transgender lie in our country? Share your thoughts and prayers below.

Father God, we stand in agreement with your Your promise in Mathew 18:19-20 and declare over this generation of children, youth and young adults, that Holy Spirit is opening their hearts to Jesus-as their personal Savior and Lord. Give them the grace to say YES to You, to surrender their hearts and future to YOU.
Standing on Your promise in Mathew 16:19,We bind all strategies, attacks, and plans of the kingdom of darkness to confuse them about their gender, the critical race theory, and all other demonic strategies of hell to steal from, kill, and destroy our children, teenagers, and young adults, in Jesus Name. We also loose the Lord’s Wisdom and Truth into every child care facility, school, and college/university in Jesus Name. We plead the victorious all powerful Blood of Jesus over every child, youth, and young adult as a hedge of protection and God’s deliverance from all forms of gender confusion. We declare that there are only two genders created by our One True Lord and Savior—“male and female He created them” and we release this Truth into the airways North, South, East, and West. We praise You and thank you, Jesus, are delivering our children, youth, and young adults from all assignments of Hell. We pray all of this in the Name above all Names, Jesus Christ and in His redemptive Blood. Amen
Lord I pray that you would fill the younger generation and even my generation with your love and peace Lord. I pray that you would open there eyes to the Truth, that you created them just like you wanted them to be and for a specific purpose for your glory. I pray that it would reach all of our younger kids (0-10) since Satan is aiming at them as well. Protect them Lord. In your name, Amen
Sometimes it is so hard to know how to interact with these people so I pray that you give the rest of us wisdom in how to love them as well. Amen
As you stated, satan’s plan is to make sure that there is no longer a generation that produces children within the context of a family. Those who undergo the change are unable to naturally produce children and therefore will be eunuchs (destroy sperms and eggs). This is part of the enemy’s plan to depopulate the world.
Father God, we are made in your likeness and image. We are to be fruitful, multiply and have dominion over the earth (Genesis 1:22, 26), not cease, wither and decrease. We declare with the power that is given in Jesus Name that this demonic plan will be destroyed by Your Word, that the minds of these children and their parent’s would be enlightened, that those doctors and professionals that are aiding and abetting this practice would see the evilness of their actions and abandon and repent for their wicked ways, and that the Body of Christ would continue to pray for deliverance of those supporting this spirit of Baal. Amen.
I have Prayed that God would open up these young person’s eye’s and show them that who ever they were
born to be is who they are, becoming mature is a process and takes time to know the up’s and down’s of life
so trying to be something they THINK they are without giving themselves time to KNOW who they are is a
grave mistake that only a Loving GOD can answer.” Father God show them the way out of this wrong act that
Satan has placed in their mind’s Help them be aware that you Father do not make mistakes and you have a
plan for their lives, that they could never be without you Lord”
This is a copy of a recent letter to our newspapers: To the editor,
Monroe County is building a new elementary-middle school on Route 12 near Peterstown. It is near completion but I have not heard of an opening date. Wouldn’t it be a wonderful event if every Christian in the county would gather on the grounds for a prayer meeting for the school the week of the opening?
Our schools certainly need prayer. In the time of the formation of this nation, President George Washington would proclaim days of fasting and prayer as we struggled to throw off the oppression of British tyranny. Perhaps we should remember our history and the occasions that led to our success. As President Ronald Reagan said, “If we forget that we are a nation under God, then we will be a nation gone under.”
I must admit that I have no idea how to organize such a happening. I also realize that many would be opposed, especially the Freedom From Religion Foundation, however, that is probably another reason we should do it. Once I heard a school board member say that he wasn’t worried about FFRF lawsuits because the school board banned the Bible from all local schools. The sad part of that was that he was a faithful member of a local church.
It breaks my heart to see our children trained in Critical Race Theory, drag queen life styles and every sort of perversion imaginable. We need prayer for our children! We seemed to have traded good for evil, morality for deviance and justice for corruption. Even if we are unable to come together in prayer for our children, we certainly need to remember them, their teachers and administrations in our prayers every day! May we praise God and stand strong!
I think the recent SCOTUS would definitely encourage a group to pray as is suggested. I just came across the following:

When it becomes “cool” to be transgender, and generates attention and privilege (the privilege, among others, to require other people to say whatever pronoun is desired), then what child would not want to gain the attention, privilege and “cool” status?
It would be so wonderful if becoming proficient in arithmetic/math, reading, writing, grammar, penmanship, and thinking were equally “cool”.
Things are truly off-base.
The first humbling has to be the, ‘repent of all fornication.’ We shout and cry against liberal teachers turning the hearts of children, at the confusing stage of life called puberty, towards “Live for what you feel.” Everyone knows this condemns the child to unhealthy addictions. Yet, our country never would have fallen this low if we had never allowed fornication into our living rooms every night via the TV, never allowed our teens to think licentiousness is the normal behavior, never allowed ‘significant others’. Our God is a God of family.
What does God say about this? Lots, but the most direct is from Ephesians 5:5-7 RSV “Be sure of this, that no immoral or impure man, or one who is covetous, that is an idolater, has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. Let no one deceive you with empty words. For it is because of these things that the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.”
The enemy lost a major battle with the overturn of Roe v. Wade, sending the abortion issue back to individual states. The numbers of babies killed will be greatly reduced. The enemy is shifting strategies to attack children and teenagers along with young adults with ‘gender dysphoria’ and transgender lies.
Lord God Almighty, raise up a standard against the enemy and every demonic entity assigned to attack children and teenagers with lies about who You, Lord God, have created them to be. Intervene in mighty ways to stop this evil and prevent life altering choices being forced on those who are not mature yet and do not have capacity to make this decision on their own. Lord, save this next generation that are called to evangelize the whole world, in Jesus name.
As you stated, satan’s plan is to make sure that there is no longer a generation that produces children within the context of a family. Those who undergo the change are unable to naturally produce children and therefore will be eunuchs. Thi”create” the next generation of children through surr
Lord, help!!!
Praying 🙏 to our Lord for these kids who are left in confusion, that they overcome! In Jesus name I pray..Amen!!
Father God we cry out to you to save our children. Bind satan away from them. open eyes to the truth. this we pray in the Mighty Name of Jesus Amen
Father, let the wave of revival roll across and come upon the youth of this country. Without Jesus, we all are lost and without true identity. Let it be, Lord. Amen.
Jesus REVEAL YOURSELF to our children and grandchildren, to this generation of youth. Give them the grace to say YES to You, to surrender their hearts and future to YOU.
Jesus, being a church goer I still didn’t know You till You revealed Yourself to me when I was in my 30s. Do that for these young people also. That’s all it would take….You revealing Yourself and them saying Yes. Don’t wait till they are adults, Lord, but reveal Yourself to them NOW. We ask this in Your precious and holy name. Amen
As an educator in public high schools, I too am aware of this disturbing trend and disproportionate numbers of teens and youth being drawn into this movement – of course during the time in their lives when they are searching for acceptance and identity. There is so much to say and I attempted to say some of it just this week in post “in whose image?” at http://www.mtothe5th.wordpress.com – (under current posts – scroll down from post “no news is good news”) – bottom line – identity in Jesus Christ is the answer, the antidote, the solution to our human search for identity and belonging. Apart from Him we are all rootless and restless, until we come to rest in Him and realize we are home. http://www.mtothe5th.wordpress.com (pen name – Grace Day)
Yes! I taught middle school children for many years. Puberty is a confusing time in our lives. God, please send many John the Baptists to awaken the Fathers to Father their children! For Jesus and your Kingdom’s sake.

Agreed, Barbara, in Jesus’ Precious Name!
BTW, I bought your lovely book “Did God Really Say” and sent it to my niece for Easter. She just loved it – and her Mom, too!
God bless!
Lord Jesus in your name we cry out to the Father asking for mercy for our children and young people who have been submerged in this darkness blinding their eyes and deceiving them by stealing their true identity that they have been created in the image and likeness of our Beloved Father… in the name of Jesus our Father we ask you to rise up and scatter your enemies and attract your children to you with bonds of love so that they may know you and be freed from all lies and iniquity… Lord, forgive the sins of this great nation , and heal earth Lord… have mercy and rescue your children from the clutches of satan in the name of Jesus Christ… Amen Amen Amen
This abomination to God is being fueled by fake teachers, corrupt school boards and teacher unions.
Our genders are chosen by Almighty God. Those who feel they’re in the wrong body are in need of Christ’s healing touch. More evidence is coming out of those who changed their genders and regretted it afterwards. This shows the evils of the transgender ideologists.
