Week 3 | Day 5 – Prayer Includes Asking for Help (Rooted Honey)

This week, we’ve been learning that:

• Prayer is talking to God

• God listens when we pray

• We can pray anytime

• Prayer includes gratitude

Today, we’re learning another important truth:

Prayer includes asking God for help.

God is our Father, and good fathers care about what their children need.

God invites us to come to Him when we need help, comfort, or guidance.

“Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.”

Matthew 7:7

This verse reminds us that God welcomes our requests.

Asking God for help is an act of trust.

Today’s Truth

Asking God for help builds humility and trust.

Asking for help requires honesty.

It reminds us that we are not meant to rely only on ourselves.

God invites us to bring our needs to Him, not because He doesn’t know them, but because He desires relationship with us.

Prayer:

Dear God, Thank You for inviting me to come to You with my needs.  Help me trust You and rely on Your care.  Amen.

Reflection Prompt:

What is something you’ve been hesitant to ask God for help with?

What might change if you trusted Him with it?
