A child’s prayer to God the Father is powerful and has the promise of being answered, for God loves children. He listens to their cries and helps them. However, born-again children of God are often in danger of losing their child status, which Jesus Christ won for them. It must be demonstrated in everyday life. It needs to be constantly strengthened by childlike dependence upon the Father, by willingness to be humbled, by dedication to the Father’s will. The deeper our commitment, the more power our prayers will have.
