Let’s come near the Lord, Wail before Him, As the power of enemy is raised to enslave the generation-(2)

We see in many places in the Word of God that the people of God cried before the Lord. But they wailed in the presence of God for their children.

“Then she went off and sat down about a bowshot away, for she thought, “I cannot watch the boy die.” And as she sat there, she began to sob.” Genesis 21:16.

God is a merciful Father who hears the wails and gives answers.

“In her deep anguish Hannah prayed to the LORD, weeping bitterly.” 1 Samuel 1:10

God blessed Hannah who poured out her heart before the Lord to receive a generation.

This is what the LORD says: “A voice is heard in Ramah, mourning and great weeping, Rachel weeping for her children and refusing to be comforted because they are no more.” Jeremiah 31:15

Rachel who was mourning for her children, was not willing to be comforted. Subsequently, God answered her prayers.

This is what the LORD says: “Restrain your voice from weeping and your eyes from tears, for your work will be rewarded,” declares the LORD. “They will return from the land of the enemy. – Jeremiah 31:16

Jesus told this to the women who were wailing for Him as He went to mount Calvary: 

 Jesus turned and said to them, “Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me; weep for yourselves and for your children. -Luke 23:28

When was the last time you who read this message, wail for your children before the Lord?

(Over and above matters such as higher education, marriage, good job etc, or about their salvation, repentance and spiritual growth…???). Let God arouse our hearts to pray for these. Not others, but only we can pray to God about our children.

The hearts of the people cry out to the Lord. You walls of Daughter Zion, let your tears flow like a river day and night; give yourself no relief, your eyes no rest. Arise, cry out in the night, as the watches of the night begin; pour out your heart like water in the presence of the Lord. Lift up your hands to him for the lives of your children, who faint from hunger at every street corner.  -Lamentation 2:18-19

Let the Holy Spirit of God help us.

Wail, O Wail

Rise up n wail

At night n dawn

Rise up n wail

Pour Your heart

Befor’ Lord as water

Wail as urchins 

Perch’d at corners (2)- Wail O Wail

Arise O folks

And take your replies

Hannah’s God and Hagar’s too

Appears in tears (2) – Wail O Wail

Hither come ye

Wail in anguish

It’s the power of foe

Crushing all the men (2) – Wail O Wail

Wail with burden

Wail with tears

See the garden Gethsemane

Harken, Christ who wails (2) – Wail O wail
