PRAYER FOR YOUR CHURCH

Connectivity with the church in our city

Lord, I lift up the church in our city. Thank You for creating the body as one unit made up of many parts. Help us understand the value of each part as You have arranged them. We confess that we’ve minimized other parts. Forgive us, for we are all baptized by one Spirit into one body. Help us to work at being one: concerned about one another—suffering with and rejoicing with other congregations as appropriate. (1 Cor. 12:12-26)

Resource Review
Children, Can You Hear Me?  By Brad Jersak
Retail: $15.95

Every parent, grandparent, Sunday School teacher, children’s pastor . . . and anyone else who works with children, this book on “listening prayer” will not only teach children how to hear the voice of God, but it will open your spiritual ears and eyes as well!

Remember, the youngest among us are quite capable of hearing the voice of God unless we, by our words or actions, tell them that He doesn’t speak! Children do not have a junior Holy Spirit! In His Word, God has said that there are some things that are hidden from adults and revealed only to little children (Matthew 11:25). This may be because childrens' spirits are so willing to receive!

In Children, Can You Hear Me? Canadian author Brad Jersak effectively and powerfully shares with children in a first person way, how they can experience what it means to know His voice and to speak to Him in every situation, no matter where they are or what they are doing. Here is an excerpt: “You won’t usually hear me with your ears or see me with your eyes--although I might surprise you . . . But your heart will see me, your heart will hear me, and your heart will know me. That’s because I made you!”

The book can be read to children (ages 3 to 6), or by children (6 to 8); however, it can also be used as a daily devotional (each page includes Scripture). Jersak has also included a wonderful section for adults at the end of his book that is invaluable.  Incredibly illustrated by Ken Save to show Jesus interacting with children as He teaches them how to listen with their hearts and to pray, you and the children in your life will be captivated by the simplicity of this powerful message!

* Brad Jersak has also written an adult version of this book entitled, Can You Hear Me? Tuning in to the God who Speaks.

Both of these books can be purchased at www.prayershop.org.
