 PRAYING 
        FOR DESCENDANTS

The seeds of the past and present hold
within them the harvest of the future

       "Therefore know that the Lord your God, He is God, the faithful God who keeps 
         covenant and mercy for a thousand generations with those who love Him 
         and keep His commandments."  Deuteronomy 7: 9
  
  Because God is faithful and keeps covenant and mercy to those who love Him and keep
  His commandments, we can pray for God to bring all of our future descendants, even 
  to a thousand generations as the Lord tarries, into His kingdom.

  As we pray our requests for the future generations that will follow, and leave the
  fulfilling of these requests to the Lord who is faithful, we will then have taken a step 
  for blessing this earth and our families, our future descendants, down through history, 
  even to a thousand generations.

  In Matthew 13: 33 Jesus told a parable, "...The kingdom of heaven is like leaven, which
  a woman took and hid in three measures of meal till it was all leavened."

  As the Lord faithfully answers our prayers, bringing our families, our future descendants,
  into His kingdom, even to a thousand generations, can you imagine how many
  lives will be impacted for Jesus' kingdom?  Just as the leaven was hidden in the three
  measures of meal till the meal was all leavened, our families, our future descendants, will 
  spread out over  the face of the whole earth, permeating, perhaps hidden and unseen at
  times, but  always enlarging and penetrating into our world and culture for our
  God's glory as we continue in faith, praying for descendants.
