MESSAGE:
Matthew 21:16 says
“And said unto him, Hearest thou what these say? And Jesus saith unto them, Yea; have ye never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou hast perfected praise?”
This passage talks about the advantage you have as a young child when it comes to asking and receiving from God. It says that you are capable of offering the most sincere and most qualitative praise to God. You are in a stage where you have less worries than adults. This is why you have the heart God desires, a heart free of worries. God prides in hearing worries from you. You are very important to Him, and He is readily hears and answer your prayers.
Armed with this information, you should then start asking God for the things on behalf of your parents. Stop thinking that you are too young to do serious praying; your age is very suitable for praying. Whatever problem you have, whatever you feel is not going well, tell it to God, He is waiting to hear from you.
Key Point:
Prayer is a weapon. Use it
