“Begin to pray for them at an early age, that they would have an awakening and awareness for Jesus and the need for Him in their life.” Marcy Russo is back for part two to share with us how we can help grow our grandchildren’s love for the Lord and prayer. She has grandkids near and far and has learned ways to love on them all. Be encouraged! We can still have an impact on this next generation, no matter our stage of life!

ABOUT OUR GUEST

Life-Giving! That’s what Moms in Prayer (MIP) has been to Marcy over the years. She has been praying in a MIP group since her children were 3, 6, and 8. She and her group prayed through every age, stage and situation, and now her kids are married with children of their own. Moms in Prayer was her best parenting tool because it brought her peace, taught her how to pray, and changed her responses by growing her love for the Lord and His word.

SCRIPTURES

When I am afraid,

I put my trust in you.

In God, whose word I praise,

in God I trust; I shall not be afraid.

What can flesh do to me? Psalm 56:3-4 ESV

The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly. John 10:10 ESV

“Don’t just tell your children you will pray for them, pray out loud with them, so they can learn they can come to God with anything.” Marcy Russo, our Moms in Prayer Southeast Division Coordinator, joins us on the podcast today to share how she taught her children to pray and some tips she learned along the way. She reminds us that it is not a list of “how-to’s”, but simply living in the grace of God.

“I am a recipient of His personal persistence. He has continued to walk with me when I, too, have grumbled against Him in the wilderness.” Today Aubrie shares encouragement from a Moms in Prayer mom who was challenged by the Lord to be persistent in her prayer life. She reminds us how God persistently pursues us and how we can follow His example as we stay close to Him. Jesus ever lives to intercede for us and the Holy Spirit helps us pray in our weakness. What a gift!

SCRIPTURES

Then Jesus told his disciples a parable to show them that they should always pray and not give up. Luke 18:1 NIV

but because Jesus lives forever, he has a permanent priesthood. Therefore he is able to save completely those who come to God through him, because he always lives to intercede for them. Hebrews 7:24-25 NIV

Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. Isaiah 40:30-31 NIV

Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words. Romans 8:26 ESV
