Awesome God: Prayer & Fasting (Kids)Sample

DAY 2 | GOD IS UNCHANGING

Have you ever seen a compass? It is a tool used by soldiers, scouts, campers, and adventurers when they travel outdoors. The compass can tell you where north, south, east, and west are, so that you can read a map correctly. How does this work? A compass always points in the same place: What is called the “magnetic north.” Soldiers trust their lives to this compass. But as a matter of fact, the magnetic north changes gradually through the centuries. If they trust their lives to this compass, how much more can we trust God, who doesn't change at all?

Unlike the magnetic north, God has not changed, is not changing, and will never change. That’s how much we can trust Him. He is always good. His great plans for you do not depend on what you do, but on His faithfulness. They won’t change even though these plans seem impossible right now.

The Bible is the word of God, and it has never, ever changed either. What God has spoken will always remain. What He promised us in the Bible will never change. The phrase “set in stone” means that a thing will never change; it is permanent. God’s promises for us are set in stone. That means that any promise from the Bible will surely come to pass. 

I CAN TRUST GOD BECAUSE HE NEVER CHANGES.

Reflect

1. What are some of God’s promises in the Bible that you can hold on to? On the stone below, write down one or two of God’s promises from the Bible that you are praying for. Be in faith that because God is unchanging, these promises for you are set in stone and will come to pass.

2. Pray and declare that your faith will grow stronger, knowing that God and His promises will never change.

Pray

Dear God, thank You that You are a safe place for me to run to. You are a promise-giver and a promise-keeper. You have the greatest promises for me, and You fulfill them at the most perfect time. Because You are unchanging, I know that Your love for me doesn’t change. That is why I can trust You. Help me to trust You better each day. In Jesus’s name, amen.
