Covenant Reaches Children

"And I will establish My Covenant between Me and thee and thy seed after thee
in their generations for an Everlasting Covenant, to be a God unto thee, and to
thy seed after thee" (Genesis 17:7).

O LORD, Thou hast made a covenant with me, Thy servant, in Christ Jesus my
LORD; and now, I beseech Thee, let my children be included in its gracious
provisions. Permit me to believe this promise as made to me as well as to
Abraham. I ask nothing on the ground of their [physical] birth, for well l know
that "that which is born of the flesh is flesh" and nothing more. LORD, make
them to be born under Thy covenant of grace by Thy Holy Spirit!

I pray for my descendants throughout all generations. Be Thou their God as Thou
art mine. My highest honor is that Thou hast permitted me to serve Thee; may my
offspring serve Thee in all years to come. O God of Abraham, be the God of his
Isaac! O God of Hannah, accept her Samuel!

If, LORD, Thou hast favored me in my family, I pray Thee remember other
households of Thy people which remain unblest. Be the God of all the families
of Israel. Let not one of those who fear Thy name be tried with a godless and
wicked household, for Thy Son Jesus Christ's sake. Amen.

“And ye are complete in him.ö Col. 2. 10; Gal. 5. 6



1 When is it Christians all agree,
And let distinctions fall?
When, nothing in themselves, they see That Christ is all in all.

2 But strife and difference will subsist While men will something seem;
Let them but singly look to Christ
And all are one in him.

3 The infant and the aged saint,
The worker and the weak,
They who are strong and seldom faint, And they who scarce can speak.

4 Eternal life’s the gift of God;
It comes through Christ alone;
’Tis his, he bought it with his blood; And therefore gives his own.

5 We have no life, no power, no faith, But what by Christ is given;
We all deserve eternal death,
And thus we all are even.
