Hezekiah Asks for God’s Help Lesson 11
Scripture: 2 Kings 19:14-19; 20:1-7; 2 Chronicles 29, 30
Bible Memory: Colossians 4:2
Focus: God has the power to answer our prayers.
Heart to Heart Teacher Devotion
Just as Hezekiah believed, we know God hears and answers prayers for healing. But
have you ever been a part of a prayer group where all the prayers were for healing of
one kind or another? Think about the prayers you offer up to God. Be sure to pray for
those who are sick, but remember that there are many other aspects of life to talk to
God about too.
