Teaching Children to Pray

One of the greatest gifts we can give our children is the gift of prayer. When we teach them to communicate with God, we equip them with a lifelong spiritual discipline. Start Early - Children are never too young to learn about prayer. Make It Natural - Pray at meals, pray at bedtime, but also pray spontaneously. Model It - Let your children see you pray. Use Scripture - Teach your children to pray God's Word back to Him. Celebrate Answered Prayers - Keep a family prayer journal. Remember, you are not just teaching your children a habit—you are introducing them to their Heavenly Father.
