"and his eyes were like blazing fire" Revelation 1:14
Jesus,
As we are clothed in you and your power indwells us, there is both power and insight that is ours through you. Eyes of fire display a power that comes from within, but is evident to those around you as a person's eyes are the first thing that is usually noticed in a person. A person's eyes also determine what is taken in by person - what is perceived by them, and fire in that regard would indicate power in perception and refinement of what is seen - power in discernment. That power comes from your Spirit who indwells us working together with knowledge of your word.
I pray that these children come to understand that being clothed in you, being a Christian is not a position of weakness, rather is a position of power - power by being indwelled by and clothed in the living God - the Creator of the universe. That they will never live in fear, but in confidence knowing that there is a power within them greater than any power in the universe. And as they pray for wisdom, you will fill them with your wisdom and discernment that is beyond what they could possess on their own. I pray that they will use the power of your presence to reach out in love and compassion to those around them. Compassion from a position of strength.
Amen
