Term 2 – Week 05
Big Idea – Followers of Jesus always pray to God with a humble heart
Matthew 6:5-8
Outcomes
- To know that it is our heart attitude behind our prayers that matters to God, not the appearance of holiness and our many words
- To understand that prayer helps us to live God’s way in this world
Implications
- Belief – Help the children grasp that prayer is an expectation for the follower of Jesus.
- Behaviour – Teach the kids Teaspoon prayer (Thank you, Sorry, Please). This model of prayer corrects our attitude and teaches us to pray with a humble heart.
Memory Verse
Matthew 22:37- 40 (NIrV)
Jesus replied, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul. Love him with all your mind.’ This is the first and most important commandment. And the second is like it. ‘Love your neighbour as you love yourself.’ Everything that is written in the Law and the Prophets is based on these two commandments.”
