Open Heaven 7 September
MEMORISE: “The glory of young men is their strength: and the beauty of old men is the grey head.” – (Proverbs 20:29)
BIBLE READING: Ecclesiastes 12:1-7 (KJV)
Remember now your Creator in the days of your youth,
Before the [a]difficult days come,
And the years draw near when you say,
“I have no pleasure in them”:
2 While the sun and the light,
The moon and the stars,
Are not darkened,
And the clouds do not return after the rain;
3 In the day when the keepers of the house tremble,
And the strong men bow down;
When the grinders cease because they are few,
And those that look through the windows grow dim;
4 When the doors are shut in the streets,
And the sound of grinding is low;
When one rises up at the sound of a bird,
And all the daughters of music are brought low.
5 Also they are afraid of height,
And of terrors in the way;
When the almond tree blossoms,
The grasshopper is a burden,
And desire fails.
For man goes to his eternal home,
And the mourners go about the streets.
6 Remember your Creator before the silver cord is [b]loosed,
Or the golden bowl is broken,
Or the pitcher shattered at the fountain,
Or the wheel broken at the well.
7 Then the dust will return to the earth as it was,
And the spirit will return to God who gave it.

1. Lord, we thank You for our youths and pray that as you raised David to be King, please raise youths who lead righteously in Jesus’ name.
2. Father, please help our youths to fear You and to say no to unrighteousness. Let them stand for the truth and righteousness always, in Jesus’ name.
3. Father, send help to all our youths; help them spiritually, financially, mentally, economically, emotionally and in every way. Let our youths have all that they need to fulfil their destiny, oh Lord.
4. Father, we cover all our youths with the blood of Jesus. We will not bury our youths, in Jesus’ name. We cancel every plan of the enemy to kill our youths, in Jesus’ name.
5. Father, please protect our youths from the decadence of this generation, in Jesus’ name.
6. Lord, help our youths submit to authority and training so that they would be prepared for their glorious future, in the mighty name of Jesus.
7. Father, we lift our youths to You; they will not be evil doers in Jesus’ name. They will not trouble the nation and its progress, in Jesus’ name.
8. Father, You said in Your word that the glory of the youths is in their strength. Lord, let the youths use their strength to serve You. Don’t let them give their glory to the devil, Lord.
9. Father, You said in Your word that our young men will see visions. I pray for every visionless youth now, that You give such a vision – one that will draw them closer to You, far away from the devil and sin.
10. Father, amongst the youths, please raise prayer warriors, great evangelists, great men and women of God, who will serve You with all their heath.
11. Father, we frustrate every agenda of the devil to lead our youths astray – whether it is through bad friends, the media or any other means. The agenda of the devil is frustrated now, in Jesus’ name.
12. Your personal prayer point for the youths, especially those close to you.
ACTION POINT: Father, thank You for the youths. Thank You for all that You have been doing through them in the body of Christ and all the industries in our nation.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Luke 1-2
