PRAYING FOR THE CHILDREN OF VBS


I am in the middle of Vacation Bible School. Wednesday's lesson is "The Road to Salvation" and I will be sharing the Wordless Book with the students.
Do you know what the colors stand for?

Black - Romans 3:23 "For ALL have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" (Black for sin)

Red - John 3:16 "For God so loved the World that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life" The Bible says, without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness of sin. (Red for the Blood)

White - Isaiah 1:18 "Though you sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow." (White for Cleaning and forgiveness)

Gold - Revelation 21:18,21 "The wall was made of jasper; and the city of pure gold. The streets of the city was pure gold." (Gold for Heaven)

Green - "But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ." (Green for growing in the Lord.)

Will you join me today in praying for the children that will hear the story of salvation through the wordless book, and decide to choose Jesus as their personal Savior.






Amen

  1. I recall hearing a pastor admonish the congregation that VBS was an outreach to the community, and while that certainly is true, it is also an outreach within the church body itself. I don't think we will ever truly comprehend how much VBS means to the children who attend church with their parents every Sunday.

    Thank you for serving.
