Term 2 – Week 09
Big Idea – Followers of Jesus are commanded to pray to God their Heavenly Father because He knows what they need and gives good gifts.
Matthew 7:7-11
Outcomes
- To know that God is like a human Father but even greater!! He provides for our needs and gives good gives. All we need to do is ask him.
- To understand that prayers enable God’s people to live His way in this world because it is an expression of our dependence upon him.
Implications
- Belief – Do we know God loves us like a Father loves his children? Do we believe God knows what’s best for us? Do we believe God answers our prayers?
- Behaviour – Encourage the child to stop and pray this week if they find themselves worrying about something.
Memory Verse
Matthew 16:24-26 (NIrV)
Jesus said, “Whoever wants to be my disciple must say no to themselves. They must pick up their cross and follow me. Whoever wants to save their life will lose it. But whoever loses their life for me will find it. What good is it if someone gains the whole world but loses their soul? Or what can anyone trade for their soul?
