A Prayer for My Children

Let all my children say, "For me, the measuring lines have fallen on pleasant boundaries; how great is my inheritance!"  (Ps. 16:6).  Let them know who it is that apportions the earth acording to His plans and purposes. Let them cry out to the Lord, "Give me this mountain!"(Joshua 14:12), and let their cry be heard by Him Who alone has the power to overturn kingdoms and armies. 

Establish them, O Lord, as "only children" in your eyes, just as You have done for me.  Let the next generation, our descendents, cry out, "Up to now we have only heard about You with our ears, but now we have seen You with our own eyes."  We will not hide from them the works of Your hands which you have done on our behalf (Ps. 78:4).
