Children render acceptable praise. Matt. 3:15, 16.
“As the children sang in the temple courts, ‘Hosanna! Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord,’ so in these last days, children’s voices will be raised to give the last message of warning to a perishing world. When heavenly intelligences see that men are no longer permitted to present the truth, the Spirit of God will come upon the children, and they will do a work in the proclamation of the truth which the older workers can not do, because their way will be hedged up.”—Testimonies for the Church, Vol. VI, pages 202, 203.
Reference may be made to experiences related in “Great Controversy,” pages 366, 367. Ask children to speak of their personal desires to be used of God in his work.
