Prayer Point for the Week – Let us pray that we would allow God to heal us from and forgive us of the hurts from the past.
Questions for Reflection
1. List all the aspects of life that scripture teaches to pray for. To whom does the scripture teach is their responsibility to pray for these things? Which of these things do you regularly pray for? What practical ways can you adopt to have a comprehensive prayer life?
2. In Mark 10, Jesus makes a connection between children and His kingdom. What does that tell us about gaining understanding our relationship with the Lord? What does that say specifically about the simplicity of prayer?
3. Luke 11 gives us insight into the exercise of faith in our prayer lives. How did your children (or yourself with parents) cope with the issues and needs of your household? Is it possible to regain that “child-like faith” and if so, how?
