I'LL PRAY ABOUT IT -- Our Father


Icebreaker:
What is the average age of a piece of clothing in your wardrobe?
How often do you buy new clothes? Seasons? Trends?

Prayer:
During this series on prayer, determine to spend more time in personal prayer each day. As a group, pray before your discussion. Start a prayer log to record requests and answers. Check the church’s weekly email blast for needs to add to your log.

Overview:
Have you ever seen the TV show “Strange Inheritance?” The odd things that people inherit from their family is fascinating. So fascinating that the series is in its fourth season. Most of us have no need for the world’s largest bottle cap collection or a bug museum but the inheritance that our Heavenly Father has for us is worth everything. After all, He gave His precious son to buy it for us.

Discussion:
Review theme scripture from Matthew 6:5-15.
Read Galatians 3:27-4:7.
Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy. -- Matthew 6:9 NLT
Who is God?
Why must His name be kept holy?
What is the significance of being an heir of God’s promise to Abraham?
What freedom does that promise give your relationship with God?
How does a “Daddy” relationship affect how you approach God?
What was the cost of our adoption?
What is our inheritance as God’s child?

Activity:
Write a Father’s Day card type prayer to your Abba Father.
