28-Week Prayer Guide
VBS
Friends, thank you for your commitment to pray as a community for 28 weeks. I am thrilled to bring you the week of Kingsland’s VBS. We will be praying for our church community as we minister to over 1,400 children this coming week. Our prayers will center around what they will be learning each day, so that you may appropriately pray for each of their hearts to understand and to learn more about their Savior, Jesus Christ. Will you join me as we pray for these children and volunteers as they learn to recognize the difference between what the world says is true and what God says is true? We will challenge the children to know that God’s truth never changes—even when it’s radically different from what some people say.
Week 16
Day 4
June 19
“For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God; they are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus.“
— Romans 3:23-24
REMINDER: We all fall short of God’s glory. It is through the gift of God’s grace that we find eternal salvation. The children are learning about The Rich and Young Ruler (Mark 10:17-27) today at VBS. Remember that it is by grace we are allowed entry into heaven, not through works.
TODAY’S PRAYER:
– Thank God for the gift of Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross for your sin. Only through Him do you find eternal salvation.
– Ask God to help the kids realize that even though we are supposed to follow rules and make good choices, those do not mean we get to go to heaven. After we accept Jesus as our Savior, our heart leans into God’s Word and His will for us, in which our actions will reflect our heart.
– Invite God into your personal life and the way you look at others. Do you see any areas that are “works based?” If so, invite God to help you change those.
– Pray for our children and their hearts as tomorrow they will be presented with the Gospel Message. We pray for hearts to be changed and for many parent-child conversations to be had.
