8th August 2010 - All Age Meeting

Peter and Pamela lead today’s All Age meeting. The theme for this morning was that if we ask God for things, he will provide for us.

Peter’s notes follow:

Story of the car.
• Why did I wait so long to ask?
• Why was I surprised when it worked?

Callum last week described how when he was prayed for and his legs worked that he was shocked.

Game granddad used to play. Demonstrate with Matthew – Matthew struggles, takes ages to get out and uses a lot of effort. Demonstrate with Chloe – Chloe asks to be let out almost immediately. No struggle, no effort!

Matt 7:7-11 “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened. 9 Or which one of you, if his son asks him for bread, will give him a stone? 10 Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a serpent? 11 If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask him!

Asking for what you need is a Kingdom principle.

Lords Prayer – give us today our daily bread.

We said last week about God having a banqueting table for all of our needs

[Food game with Chris: eating dry cream crackers without water is very difficult.]

Matt 5:6 “You’re blessed when you’ve worked up a good appetite for God. He’s food and drink in the best meal you’ll ever eat. (The message)
• We need to hunger for the things of God. Then He will give them to us.

How does the Lords prayer go?
Sweet when asked after the right answer.

Matt 6:10 Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven
• What is heaven like?
• We need to discover the answers
• What does it mean to get heaven on earth?
