SCRIPTURE

"And all Judah stood before Jehovah, with their little ones, their wives, and their children." — 2 Chronicles 20:13 (ASV)

It must have been a wonderful sight—the vast crowd, the pleading king, his voice heard from afar, and the men and the women; but, to my mind, the most touching thing of all was the little children standing there, making their silent appeal to God that He would not let the babies be destroyed—that He would not allow the young children to be slain by the cruel armies that then threatened the land.

Young children's prayers are powerful. Little ones, may God teach you how to pray.
