This is what the Lord says: “What fault did your fathers find in Me that they strayed so far from Me, and followed worthless idols, and became worthless themselves? Jeremiah 2:5

I have prayed with many mothers and fathers who have asked the same question, ‘What have I done wrong that my children are going astray, following worthless idols and are becoming worthless themselves?’ Imagine how God felt, when the children of Israel even though they had seen his works, proved his works and still rebelled against him. They did not ask, ‘Where is the Lord, who brought us up out of Egypt and led us through the barren wilderness, through a land of deserts and ravines, a land of drought and utter darkness, a land where no one travels and no one lives?’ They were rebellious. My brothers and sisters in Christ, I do not know who I am speaking to this morning, but if you have done all that you could to bring up your children in the right way and they are now going astray, do not blame yourselves, instead, continue to thank God for them, turn them over to God to direct and control, pray for God to renew right spirits within them and sit back and watch God work. Don’t question God, petition him, stand in the gap for your children. In Jesus name we pray. Amen!
