Creative Prayer with M&Ms

This was created by my youngest son at his 11-14 year old group; still useful for future Sunday School Creative Prayer ideas....

 

1 Timothy 2v1-5
I urge you first of all to pray for all people. Ask God to help them; Intercede on their behalf, and give thanks for them. Pray this way for kings and all who are in authority so that we can live peaceful and quiet lives marked by Godliness and dignity. This is good and pleases God our saviour who wants everyone to be saved and to understand the truth. (NLT)

 

Questions to Discuss

·         How can we act on that reading?

·         Why should you pray for people you don’t like?

·         Should we pray for people that don’t pray for us?

·         Why do we pray for people that don’t believe in God?
