“Children ought to be dealt with, in regard to the duty of accepting Christ, as closely and seriously as older people… Personal dealing is required; a dealing with them one by one.” – Andrew Bonar

PRAY FOR THE CHILDREN AT OPBC AND THOSE WE REACH EACH YEAR – PSALM 78:1-7

Psalms 78:1-7 A Maskil of Asaph. Give ear, O my people, to my teaching; incline your ears to the words of my mouth! 2 I will open my mouth in a parable; I will utter dark sayings from of old, 3 things that we have heard and known, that our fathers have told us. 4 We will not hide them from their children, but tell to the coming generation the glorious deeds of the LORD, and his might, and the wonders that he has done. 5 He established a testimony in Jacob and appointed a law in Israel, which he commanded our fathers to teach to their children, 6 that the next generation might know them, the children yet unborn, and arise and tell them to their children, 7 so that they should set their hope in God and not forget the works of God, but keep his commandments;

PRAISE THE LORD FOR WHAT HE HAS DONE IN HISTORY – AND HIS REDEMPTIVE PLAN TO SAVE SINNERS!
