Today, your child reviewed the previous three lessons about Noah and how important it was for Noah to obey God. Your child also learned how he or she needs to obey God when He wants us to do something for Him. Whether it is something big or small, when we choose to obey God, He'll help us finish the task.
"Noah walked with God." Genesis 6:9b NKJV
"Come my children, listen to me." Psalm 34:11a NIV
"The Lord watches over all who love Him." Psalm 145:20a NIV
Practice all three verses several times with your child during the week. This will help him
or her remember the full meaning of the story about Noah and the flood.
Family Activity
Prepare a task with a few simple instructions. Explain what it is, then have your child work on completing the task. While working, remind your child that by following the instructions exactly, it will turn out great! Award him or her with a small token or snack after completing the task. Remind your child that when we listen and follow God’s instructions, He will help us get the task done, and it will be great! Obeying is such an important thing to do.
Dear Lord, thank You for giving us the help we need to do the jobs You give us. Remind us to always ask for Your help to do what You ask us to do. Thank You for sharing this great story about Noah, how he obeyed You, and how You saved him from the flood. Thank You also for the beautiful rainbow, so we can remember Your great promise. Amen.
Today our Bible lesson was about the time Paul was thrown into prison for casting a demon out from a slave girl. The children learned from Paul's example that even when thrown into a difficult situation, they can still worship and praise the Lord. When they do, God will use them for His glory. (Scripture used: Acts 16:16-34)
Practice this verse several times with your child during the week. This will not only help him or her remember the verse, but it will also help to reinforce what he or she learned during class.
This week, go to a few "out of the ordinary" places with your child and worship the Lord with song and prayer. You may want to go to a park, or sit next to a lake and sing a few
hymns, or you can find a place crowded with people and offer prayers of thanksgiving. Let your child discover that he or she can worship and praise God in many places.
Dear Lord, no matter where I am, no matter what situation I am in, You are there, and I will always love You. Thank You for Your mercy and grace, and for helping me through the difficult times of my life. Use me Lord in whatever way You want, for I am here to serve and worship You. Amen.
