Prayer

We have been discussing how God first gave to us. He demonstrated His love for us by sending His only Son to save us. No gift has or will ever top this gift!      

 

In our prayer today, each of you will be given the opportunity to receive God’s ultimate gift of Jesus as your Savior. If you already believe in Jesus, praise God! You can still repeat the words with us and rejoice that you are saved and will go to heaven someday! You can also pray in your heart for anyone who may believe in Jesus for the first time today. 

Close in prayer, allowing time after each phrase for the children to pray silently or repeat aloud after you:

Dear Lord Jesus, … I believe … You died on the cross for me … to pay the price for my sins … to forgive me … and to take me to heaven someday. … Come live in my heart. … Fill me with Your Spirit … so I can live to please You. … Help me share this amazing gift with others … so they can be set free from their sins … and live with You in heaven forever. … In Your Saving name we pray, Amen.                    

 

Close in prayer: Raise your arms toward heaven and ask the children to do the same.

Let’s praise and thank God right now for giving us the wonderful gift of Jesus! He spared nothing to save us so we can have eternal life! Amen!
