God Is Bigger Than Our Fears
Topic: God is bigger than the things we fear
Scripture: Isaiah 12:2
Need: Penny, book, Bible
Sermon
Good morning, children. Today, I have two items with me. (Show the children the penny and the book.) Which one is bigger? (Allow children to answer.) Can you think of something smaller than a penny? Can you think of something bigger than a book? What is the biggest thing you can think of?
We all have things that we are afraid of. Some fears are small like a penny. Other fears are bigger, like a book. Our Bible verse tells us about something that is bigger than our fears. (Read or have an older child read Isaiah 12:2.) God’s love and power is bigger than our fears and worries. When we are afraid, we might forget about God’s power. When we do, we need to pray and ask God to remind us that he is Bigger than our fears.
Prayer
Dear God, we thank you that you are bigger than our fears and worries. Help us to remember that your love and power is bigger than our fears, and you are there to help us. Amen.
