Summary
It’s all but impossible to do the things God calls us to without courage. David, Joshua, Moses, and Samuel each challenged their people to be courageous in their last days before going to heaven. Why? Because living for God isn’t the easy road, and we will be called to places that are impossible without courage.
I can’t help but think of what some of our favorite Old Testament greats would have missed without having courage.
- Moses without courage doesn’t leave his land and go to a foreign country
- Esther without courage doesn’t speak to the king and save a nation
- Moses without courage doesn't lead the Isrealite
- Rahab without courage doesn’t house the spies
I could go on and on, but let’s just say it’s important to pray courage over our kids because they are going to be asked by God to do bold things in this culture. Let’s also pray that they have the courage to say no to things that are not from God like drugs, toxic friendships, gossiping, pornography, etc.
We have one life to do the things God has called us to this side of heaven—and if the people in the Bible tell us anything it’s that we’re going to need a little courage along the way. Can’t wait to pray with you!

| 0:03.5 | Hey guys, welcome to pardon us. |
| 0:16.0 | This is Cynthia Yanov, and I'm glad you're joining us today before we kick off today's prayer journal and |
| 0:22.6 | praying courage over our kids. I've got to say I got the coolest DM on Instagram. I nearly said |
| 0:28.4 | message because I'm so cool and I know the language right, but it's DMs, I believe, on Instagram. |
| 0:32.7 | And because I'm so cool and savvy with my social media, I can't find it now. |
| 0:36.6 | But I got the coolest message from a woman who loves praying with us every week. |
| 0:40.5 | But she said she was bummed out because she never gets them until Tuesdays because she lives |
| 0:44.0 | in Singapore. |
| 0:45.3 | I'm like, what in the world? |
| 0:46.4 | That is awesome. |
| 0:47.2 | So hello, friend from Singapore and all of you guys. |
| 0:50.6 | We have people literally all over the world that are praying with us. |
| 0:52.9 | And that's just really cool. And so this week, we are praying courage for our kids. And I'm |
| 0:57.5 | just curious, have you prayed for your kids to have courage before? And I was trying to think |
| 1:01.6 | if I have, I'm not sure that I definitely don't pray that routinely for them. But maybe I have like, |
| 1:06.6 | you know, if they had a big test or they had a piano recital or something like that, but I don't, |
| 1:11.9 | I don't think I've done that traditionally. And so let's think about courage for minutes. |
| 1:15.9 | Deuteronomy 316, which is the verse in the prayer journal, be strong and courageous, do not be |
| 1:20.9 | afraid or terrified because of them for the Lord your God goes with you. He will never leave nor |
