Sunday Sermon: The Children Are Our Future – A Call to Protect and Nurture Every Child

Scripture Reading: Matthew 19:14 (NIV)
"Jesus said, 'Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.'”

Beloved family of God,
Today, we gather not just to worship but to remember the sacred duty we have been given: to protect and nurture the most innocent and vulnerable among us—our children. Our world is suffering from deep spiritual sickness, where the innocent are targeted, and evil is disguised as normalcy. We must confront this reality with open hearts and bold voices, for the future of the world depends on how we treat our children.

Let us begin by speaking the truth about the tragedy of abortion, which continues to claim the lives of millions of innocent children before they even take their first breath. In the eyes of our Lord, every life is precious, and each soul is known by Him even before it is born. The Scriptures remind us in Jeremiah 1:5, “Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you, before you were born I set you apart.”

Every unborn child is part of God's divine plan, yet today, many turn a blind eye to the sanctity of life. Abortion is not merely a political or social issue—it is a spiritual crisis, a rejection of the life God Himself creates. Who are we to choose which lives are worth living? Who are we to deny God's design for His children? We are called, as the people of God, to stand in defense of the voiceless and to proclaim boldly that every child, from conception, has a right to life.

But the battle for the safety and well-being of children does not end at birth. Our world has plunged into darkness where children are exploited, abused, and trafficked. The global crisis of pedophilia is not something we can ignore. The innocent are being preyed upon by forces of evil, and we must stand as warriors for their protection. Jesus, our Messiah, said in Matthew 18:6, “But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him to have a millstone hung around his neck and to be drowned in the depth of the sea.”

The Messiah does not mince words when it comes to the protection of children. He makes it clear that there is no greater sin than the abuse of the innocent. Yet today, we see horrific acts happening all around us—pedophilia, child trafficking, and the exploitation of children are rampant across the globe. And even more horrifying, there are whispers and shadows of satanic rituals and human sacrifices involving children.

Make no mistake—these acts of evil are a direct assault on God’s creation. The forces of darkness, embodied in these rituals, are ancient and vile. They seek to pervert what is pure and to destroy what is sacred. But we, as believers, are called to shine the light of Christ in the darkest places. Ephesians 5:11 tells us, “Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them.”

We cannot remain silent while these atrocities are committed. We must expose the evil, confront it, and seek justice for the innocent.

And let us not forget the plight of the children in the Middle East, particularly in Palestine, where conflict and war have turned childhoods into nightmares. These children deserve safety, peace, and freedom, just like any child born in a peaceful nation. They are not numbers in a war—they are souls loved by God. The violence and oppression they face are an affront to the dignity of human life.

We must pray for these children and advocate for their safety, just as we stand against abortion and the exploitation of children through trafficking and ritualistic evil. Our Messiah commands us to love the least of these and to fight for justice on their behalf.

So, how do we act in a world filled with so much darkness? How do we save the children?

Pray fervently and without ceasing. Lift up the unborn, the abused, the trafficked, and the oppressed children of Palestine. Prayer is our most powerful weapon in this spiritual battle.
Raise your voice. Do not stay silent in the face of evil. Speak out against abortion, pedophilia, and satanic abuse. Be the voice for the voiceless, and let your words be a beacon of truth and righteousness.
Support those who fight for children. There are many organizations, both Christian and secular, working tirelessly to protect children from harm. Support them with your prayers, your resources, and your time.
Teach your own children the ways of the Messiah. Raise them to understand the value of every human life, to recognize evil for what it is, and to stand up for justice. As it says in Proverbs 22:6, “Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it.”
Brothers and sisters, the future of our world is in our children. Every unborn child, every child in Palestine, every child abused in secret—they are all the future of God’s kingdom. And it is our responsibility to defend them with everything we have.

As we stand in this spiritual war, let us take heart in the words of our Messiah, Jesus, who said in John 16:33, “In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”
The darkness may be great, but the light of the Messiah is greater still.

May we rise as His warriors, His protectors, and His hands of justice for the most innocent among us. And may God give us the strength to save the children.

Amen.
