July 23rd: Ask God First | Kids Devotional Carpooling with Jesus

Hey Carpool Crew!

Have you ever had to choose between two good things—like going to a birthday party or a Lego tournament? Decisions can be hard, but you don’t have to figure them out on your own.

In today’s episode, Pastor Justin shares the story of David from 2 Samuel 5:19—right after David became king and had to decide whether to go to battle. Instead of jumping in, David asked God first—and God gave him the answer he needed.

Jesus would want us to do the same. Whether you’re choosing where to sit at lunch, solving a problem with a friend, or facing a big change like moving to a new school—God wants to help. All you have to do is ask.

We’ll also hear a real-life story about Beckett and how a simple prayer helped him make a tough choice. You’ll walk away with confidence to pause, pray, and invite God into your decision-making.

📖 Verse of the Day:

“So David inquired of the Lord, ‘Shall I go and attack the Philistines?’ The Lord answered him, ‘Go, for I will surely deliver the Philistines into your hands.’”

—2 Samuel 5:19 (CSB)
