A few years ago, God gave me a vision. The vision was to bring hope to the hopeless and a future to the future-less through the saving grace of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. As many parts of our world continue to burst into war and destruction, the numbers of suffering people are always on the increase. For many of these people, the biggest question is, “Is God in control of His creation?” This is what I call “The Truth To Reality.” As for all of these suffering people, the words hope and a future are nonexistent.
Whenever man-made destruction occurs, the children are the ones who suffer the most. Those who cause these problems (war, corruption, killing, rape etc.) don’t stay around long enough to see the harm they create for the future leaders (the children). The result is that the children grow up almost totally destroyed physically and spiritually. The children are often (if not always) forgotten by society but the good news is – God has not forgotten the children.
When Israel was exiled in Babylon, all hopes were gone and Israel’s future was blanked. Can God forget His people? When the Holy Spirit came upon Jeremiah, God spoke these words through him:
This statement is as true today as it was for the Israelite just as it is for the millions of street children and orphans in war torn countries around the world. The vision is to meet the physical and spiritual needs of children in these countries. Whenever the physical needs are met, the opportunity is there to reach the spiritual needs as well. Therefore, “The Lord’s Prayer’ Outreach Academy.
Present hope
For the children to know that regardless of their circumstances, God has a plan for their lives, He loves them and will care for them daily.
Future hope
For the children to know that they can be with Jesus when He returns for His church and live with Him forever.
