"As the rain and the snow
come down from heaven,
and do not return to it
without watering the earth
and making it bud and flourish,
so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater,
so is my word that goes out from my mouth:
It will not return to me empty,
but will accomplish what I desire
and achieve the purpose for which I sent it."
(Isaiah 55:10,11)
Sovereign Father,
I pray these children come to truly trust in your word. But I also pray they come to understand that they have your Word in their hands through your revealed word and from the example of the incarnate Word. Help them to learn and believe that they can use your word as they seek to accomplish things for the Kingdom, as they seek to minister to the hurting and as they seek to raise children, and that your word will continue to be powerful, alive, active, sharper than any double-edged sword and, when used by them, it will not return empty.
Amen
