As a ministry that has been learning, writing, and teaching prayer for a while now. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We have always contended that the way that we teach prayer to our children isn\u2019t quite right.

Perhaps it is the idea of having to explain our God&#8217;s vastness to minds so young that makes it difficult. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yet, prayer, in its purest form, is filled with simplicity. After all, Jesus asked that we would let the children come to him. Instead, we often stand in their way with these memorisations.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p><sup>14&nbsp;<\/sup>But Jesus said,&nbsp;\u201cLet the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for&nbsp;of such is the kingdom of heaven.\u201d<\/p>\n<cite>Matthew 19:14&nbsp;New King James Version (NKJV)<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Primary Year A Quarter 1 Episode 12: &quot;Let the Children Come&quot;\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/QPDL_xFCqhw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>How can we make bedtime prayer for kids simple yet deliberate? The answer is more straightforward than you may imagine. Equip the children with the building blocks of prayer so they can personalise it. You want your children to own the words they say to the Lord. This is how you build a personal relationship with God.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As long as they are saying your words, there is no ownership on their part.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_What_are_you_thankful_for\"><\/span>1.

He directs their paths. That is a position in which we should all aspire to be. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We also know that no matter what we plan, it is pointless if not founded on the Lord.

Prayer is one of the most important things that you could teach them. This skill will keep them at peace with the world and even with you when things are not well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We cannot overstress the importance of ownership. Prayer is not a recipe to inherit from generation to generation. It is more of a skill set that can be passed down. Once they learn it, they can use it at will. Our role as their parents is to ensure that they have this skill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have any interesting techniques that you have used to teach prayer to your children.
