Benefits Of Children Ministry And Gospel Prayer Service

By Matthew Campbell


There is no doubt to the fact that it is only God that can make a man. The future and present of mankind solely depends on God's approval. For God to be pleased with man's decisions, he should be in tune with his instructions and those instructions are best known through training. This is why it is good to train children in the fear of God. Such children can grow up to become whatever they want since the Lord is with them.

The best way to train up a child is by imbibing the fear of God in him. This is because making him have the fear of God will mean having the Spirit of God that will direct him in all things. This is the importance of taking your kids to children ministry and gospel prayer service.

The aim of taking a child to a children ministry at a young age is for him to learn how to obey God's laws. Some of the things children learn easily when they are young include reading the bible, reciting bible passages, sharing with friends, forgiveness, love and respect. Parents of kids that display these characters is often regarded as being blessed.

Many people forget to pray when they want to take important decisions concerning their lives but this is not the case with those who grow up in a prayer service ministry. A child learns the benefits of prayer and fasting, intercession and the need to have quality quiet times in prayer services. Their prayers are powerful and the Lord delights to hear their honest demands.

As prayer means talking to God, a child who learns the act at a tender age will be able to communicate more frequently with his maker throughout his life. In other words, the child will be more acquainted with the things of God, professing and living in God's goodness. It is for people like this that the Kingdom of God was established so they have a better chance of making it to Heaven on the last day.

In fact, having a child go through the church activities increases his chances of accepting Christ. It is more difficult for adults who feel they are wise to subject their understanding to heavenly principles after he has developed some personal beliefs and the existence of God. At their young age, they are quick to learn and memorize Bible passages, recall and recite stories in the Bible and also participate in Bible quiz.

Children who are taken to the ministry at an early age are able to avoid the consequences of sin. As the child is told what to do as a Christian, he automatically refrains from the unwholesome acts of sin. This is like saying that as one draws closer to God, the tendency to be close to Satan is reduced. The effects of sin such as drug abuse, armed robbery, fornication and adultery are uncommon among people who proclaim Christ.

The prayer ministry is also a solution for kids who are born in abusive homes. A child that is born into a home where mum and dad always fight or quarrel is likely to grow up the same way. However, this can be prevented if the child is trained in a church where he sees other children whose parents live without acrimony.
