Prayer

Let’s say our SuperTruth together: “God waits patiently for us to turn to Him.”

In our SuperVerse activity, we learned that Jesus calls out to us and asks permission to enter.

Have the children find a place in the room to sit alone and pray. 

For those of us who are followers of Jesus, He desires a deeper relationship with us. Let’s take a moment to think and pray about whether there is an area of our lives where we haven’t allowed Jesus to enter—then let’s invite Him in.

For anyone who is not yet a follower of Jesus, you can invite Him to enter your heart today! It is very simple and you can speak to God silently.

Allow a short time for the children to think and pray silently, then close in group prayer.

Dear Lord Jesus, we hear You knocking on the doors of our hearts today, and we are opening the doors right now to invite You into our lives. Come into our lives and take control. We want You to know everything about us—the good things we have done and the bad things we are ashamed of. Thank You for dying on the cross to pay the punishment for our sins. We praise You for rising from the grave to win the victory over sin and death. Thank You for hearing each prayer today. Help each one of us to experience a new and deeper relationship with You! In Your name we pray, Amen.

Encourage any children who asked Jesus into their hearts to speak to you, with an assistant, or another adult after class. Congratulate them and discuss the important decision they made.
