Prayer for the youths is specially written for you to use and commit our youths into the able hands of God. Our youths are the hope for a better future, they are great leaders, innovators and teachers of tomorrow. But what happens when they go astray or be manipulated by the devil so that they no longer become useful to the nation again? Indeed, the future will become unrealistic and unclear. Therefore, we need to commit them in the hands of God because it only God who can guide, protect and direct them so that they will not go astray. We need to use our youthful age to serve and also do the will of God at all times. Lamentations 3:27 “It is good for a man to bear the yoke while he is young.”
