CHILD-FRIENDLY WHEN SATAN COMES KNOCKING!

Psalm 86:7 – “When I am in trouble, I call to you because you answer me.”

 

Sometimes, life gets hard. We feel scared, sad, or confused. But guess what? The Bible tells us that when trouble comes, we should pray. Not “if” we pray—but when we pray. That means God wants us to talk to Him every time we face a problem.

What Does It Mean When Satan Comes Knocking?

It means the enemy is trying to:

- Make us afraid

- Tell us lies

- Make us forget God’s promises

But we don’t have to be afraid! We can pray, stand strong, and trust God to help us.

What the Bible Says:

- Psalm 50:15 – “Call on me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you.”

- Psalm 34:6 – “This poor man called, and the Lord heard him.”

- Ephesians 6:12 – We are fighting against evil, not people.

- 2 Corinthians 12:9 – God’s grace is enough for us.

- 1 Corinthians 15:58 – Stand firm and don’t give up.

- 1 Peter 2:9 – You are God’s special child!

- Jeremiah 29:11 – God has good plans for you.

- 1 Corinthians 10:13 – God will help you through every hard time.

What Should We Do?

- Pray right away

- Speak God’s Word out loud

- Tell the enemy to go away in Jesus’ name

- Remember that Jesus already won the battle!

REFLECTION QUESTIONS FOR KIDS:

- When something bad happens, do I pray first or try to fix it myself?

- Can I remember a time when God helped me through something hard?

- How can I use God’s Word to stand strong when I feel afraid?

PRAYER: Dear Father, thank You for always being with me. Help me to remember to pray when I’m scared or in trouble. Thank You for giving me strength and helping me win every battle. I know that with You, I don’t have to be afraid. Thank You for giving me victory in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Shalom

IT IS NEVER TOO LATE TO START AGAIN!

Job 17:10-11 GW   "But now, all of you, come and try again! I won’t find one wise man among you.  My days are passing by. My plans are broken. My dreams are shattered."[10]   Life may require us to start again—and it’s never too late to start over. One of life’s certainties is that everyone will experience failure at something at some point. Life is never an unbroken series of victories. Setbacks, losses, and sometimes defeat will happen and may overwhelm us. Defeat may be thrust upon us by circumstance or by others, or we may defeat ourselves by our own thoughts and actions. When this happens, some give up, some persist until they succeed, and others are willing to start over again. Luke 7:11-15 gives the account of the widow of Nain, on her way to bury her only son, crying, distraught after losing another close family member. On the way, Jesus saw her, had compassion, and acted.  The woman must have thought, "Is He kidding? Does He know what I've been t...

DIVINE VISION!

Jeremiah 1:1-11 NASB The words of Jeremiah the son of Hilkiah, of the priests who were in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin, [2] to whom the word of the Lord came in the days of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign. [3] It came also in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, until the end of the eleventh year of Zedekiah the son of Josiah, king of Judah, until the exile of Jerusalem in the fifth month. [4] Now the word of the Lord came to me, saying, [5] “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, And before you were born I consecrated you; I have appointed you as a prophet to the nations.” [6] Then I said, “Oh, Lord God! Behold, I do not know how to speak, Because I am a youth.” [7] But the Lord said to me, “Do not say, ‘I am a youth,’ Because everywhere I send you, you shall go, And all that I command you, you shall speak. [8] “Do not be afraid of them, For I am with you to save you,” declares the Lord. [9] Then the Lord stretch...

RESISTANCE FROM STEPPING INTO PURPOSE!

John 16:33 AMPC I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have [perfect] peace and confidence. In the world you have tribulation and trials and distress and frustration; but be of good cheer [take courage; be confident, certain, undaunted]! For I have overcome the world. [I have deprived it of power to harm you and have conquered it for you.]   Stepping into your God-given purpose is one of the most powerful decisions you will ever make. But it is also one of the most resisted. The Bible makes it clear that whenever God calls a person, opposition rises—externally, internally, and spiritually. Jesus Himself tells us that trials will come, but His victory gives us courage and peace. Every believer must understand this: resistance is not a sign that you’re in the wrong place; it is often proof that you’re stepping into the right one. Everyone called by God faces resistance! Throughout Scripture, the moment people stepped into divine purpose, they faced pushback. ...
