What a wonderful resource for teaching our children to pray! It is well-illustrated, teaches all about the Old Testament, and encourages various different kinds of prayer, from repentance to petition to thanksgiving to praise. What a gift to parents and all who care about spiritually nurturing the next generation!
I cannot think of anything more important for a child to know than the fact that God delights to hear their prayers – especially when those prayers are grounded in Scripture. This resource is going to help families and children learn that God loves it when we pray the truths in his word back to him.
Vibrant prayers are informed by God’s word and fueled by his promises. Using God’s Big Promises Bible Story Prayers with your children can help them get into the rhythm of responding to God’s word through prayer even before they can read. It’s never too early for children to learn to respond to God’s great and precious promises through prayer!
We really enjoy this one. It is a fantastic resource for guiding family Bible Time, and is a perfect accompaniment to the God's Big Promises Storybook Bible.
This book is precious and is filled with sweet prayers for children to pray. It is encouraging and easy to ready for the children.
My 5 year old daughter and I have been enjoying reading this prayer book alongside the God’s Big Promises Bible Storybook, as it matches up with all 92 stories, and teaches kids how to pray scripture. “Prayer is us speaking to God, and the Bible is God speaking to us. So it’s great to pray in response to what we hear in the Bible.”
There are four different types of prayers highlighted in each story: PRAISE, THANK YOU, SORRY, and PLEASE prayers. There is also an action you can do with it, whether it’s lifting your hands in praise, or clutching them to your heart to say sorry. Extra prayers are included for bedtime, as well as an index if you are looking for a specific type of prayer (when your child is feeling sad, angry, worried, tempted, etc.).
This book teaches kids that they can always turn to the One and Only God who listens to us, gives us what He knows we need, and (as revealed through scripture) has kept every promise He has ever made! This book has been a great way to end our day!

🙏🏼 You may be familiar with the “God’s Big Promises Bible Storybook” and this amazing resource is the latest in the series focusing on prayer. Pair it alongside the storybook to have a guided prayer after you read the full bible story or use it on its own.
👉🏼 The prayers are divided into Old Testament Prayers, New Testament Prayers plus 10 bonus bedtime prayers at the end of the book.
📖 Every page follows a format of a paragraph summary of the story, a bible verse and a prayer.
🤲 The prayers all contain one or more of the following to guide kids in their practice of prayer:
- Praise (Wow!)
- Thank You
- Sorry
- Please
👦🏼 These short devotional prayers are a perfect introduction to prayer for little ones and/or a great supplemental resource in addition to any bible storybook you read.
Perfect for a bedside, a morning basket, a post-dinner devotional time and more!

I have loved using this book with my son as we read through the Bible Storybook. I love how both books match perfectly together. We'll read one story and then find the prayer in this book that matches it. I've loved using this every night.
We LOVE the God's Big Promises Bible, a retelling of familiar Bible stories for children highlighting how God makes and keeps his promises. This is a fantastic companion to the Bible, offering a prayer for each story that gets to the heart of what God is teaching us in that passage. There is a Bible quote and a helpful summary with each passage, so it could be used independently of the GBP Bible, but we're enjoying reading the Bible story in its entirety and then praying the prayer in this book as a helpful conclusion for our Bible time. We'd really recommend this!
Another great addition to the God's Big Promises series. This book covers 101 prayers that children can got through alongside their parents or guardians.
The book is structured with two portions: prayers based on the Old Testament and prayers based on the New Testament.
The introduction reviews the best way to utilize the book with children, along with descriptions of the uniqueness of each prayer. Every prayer has a theme around Wow, Thank You, Sorry, and Please and are indicated by special words. They also encourage body language with each. It also describes how powerful prayer is and why we pray according to Scripture.
They also conclude the book with a concise index that categorizes the prayers into their respective themes such as sorry, angry, weak, worried, tempted, etc. This allows for easy searching when looking for a prayer with a specific purpose.
Ultimately, this is a wonderful book for young kids to learn and practice prayer!

"God’s Big Promises Bible Story Prayers" is a wonderful children's book. The sturdy hardcover is beautiful, and inside, you'll find 101 lovely prayers. It pairs perfectly with "God’s Big Promises Storybook Bible," but it can also be used on its own. This book encourages kids to pray using words from the Bible, helping them grow in their faith in a fun and meaningful way.
This little book is chock full of prayers that coordinate with stories from the Bible! This is a fantastic resource for teaching our children to pray from scripture and for helping them to see God's character throughout each story. I also love the bedtime prayers in the back of the book that communicate God's care for us while we sleep.
This book is a companion to God's BIG Promises Storybook Bible and while you don't have to use them together, I think it would be helpful to have the pair!
