Luke 11:9 NIV LESSON AIM: To teach the importance of persistent and persevering prayer in the lives of believers. INTERNATIONAL SUNDAY SCHOOL STUDY OUTLINE I. BACKGROUND: PERFECT PATTERN FOR PRAYER: LUKE 11:1-4 What prompted Jesus to teach his disciples about prayer? Luke 11:1 What do we commonly call the model prayer Jesus taught his disciples as recorded in Luke 11:2-4? Who does Jesus teach His disciples to address their prayer to? Luke 11:2ab How does this prayer address praise to the Father? Luke 11:2c What should we want to come in our lives and on the earth? Luke 11:2d What should we pray that God give us to nourish us spiritually and physically? Luke 11:3 What role should forgiveness play in our prayer life? Luke 11:4ab What should be our prayer for guidance in this world? Luke 11:4c II. PARABLE OF THE MIDNIGHT VISITOR-PERSISTENT PRAYER: LUKE 11:5-10 What is a parable? Use a Bible Dictionary How does Jesus begin His parable to His disciples? Luke 11:5a Identify the characters in this parable. Luke 5:5-6 In this parable what time did a man go to his neighbor and friend? For what purpose? Luke 11:5-6 Why do you think Jesus used midnight and an emergency situation in this parable? What was the initial response of the man at the house? Luke 11:7 Why did the man in the house reconsider and finally give in? Luke 11:8 How does our heavenly Father differ from the man in the house? Psalm 121:3-4 Do you think our boldness or persistence in prayer is for our good or God? Explain your answer. II. THE PROMISE TO ANSWER PRAYER; LUKE 11:9-10 What threefold instruction (Acrostic) does Jesus give us to help us in our prayer life? Luke 11:9 What promises are given to those who use this threefold approach to God in prayer? Luke 11:10 Explain why there must be a balance between asking, seeking, and knocking. (Keep in mind that asking deals with requesting and recognizing our dependence on God; seeking deals with approaching God to be more like Him in His holiness and to know His holy will; knocking deals with making ourselves available when God provides the open door.) Why is it important for us to pray even though God knows our needs? What is one of the main reasons why our asking in prayer goes unheeded? James 4:2-3 What is the proper way to seek God? Why? Isaiah 55:6; Jeremiah 29:13 Why some doors (opportunities) we knock at do not open? (The life of the Israelites after leaving bondage in Egypt displays this. Read Deuteronomy 1:19-46.) III. PRAYING TO A LOVING FATHER: LUKE 11:11-13 What did Jesus say no normal earthly father would do as relating to his offspring? Luke 11:11-12 What conclusion does Jesus want us to reach about God based on the assumption what earthly fathers will do for their offspring? Luke 11:13 What does Jesus expect His followers to pray for? Luke 11:13b SUMMARY AND DISCUSSION What are preconditions (guidelines) for successful prayer? Psalm 40:12 Chronicles 7:14Matthew 21: 22Luke 11:8Luke 11:9-10Luke 18:1James 5:16bJohn 14:131 John 5:14-15Is prayer always answered? It is said that God answers every prayer in one of three ways: Yes, No, or Wait. Discuss the believers responsibility to Gods answer. Does God meet all our needs, or only some of them? Discuss.
