LESSON 2: HOW SHOULD WE PRAY?

April 25th

MEMORY VERSE:

"Praise be to God, who has not rejected my prayer or withheld his love from me!" Psalm 66:20 NIV

Introduction:

Last week we learned that prayer is communicating or talking with God. So how should we pray? When we pray, God wants us to pray with all of our heart (Jeremiah 29:13) We should pray earnestly and not half heartily. We should not pray just so other people will think we are godly.

Read Jeremiah 29:11-13

Have the kids find Jeremiah 29:11-13 in their Bibles. Ask for a volunteer to read the passage, or if you prefer, read the passage to the children yourself.

Discussion Questions:

1. Will God listen when we pray?
2. What kind of plans does God have for us? 
3. How can we seek and find God? 
4. God wants to give us hope and a __________? 
5. When we pray we should pray with __________? 

APPLICATION

God does not want us to pray mechanically like robots. He wants us to pray heart-felt prayers. He wants us to tell Him our desires, our fears, our hopes, and He wants us to sing songs of joy to Him when we are happy. Praying before meals and bedtime is good, but He wants to hear from us more often than that. He wants to be involved in our lives, to comfort us when we are sad, strengthen us when we are scared and laugh with us when we are happy. God will give true meaning and direction to our lives. We need to make Him part of our lives throughout the day by reading His Word, the Bible and seeking Him through prayer
