LESSON OVERVIEW
WEEK:: THREE
This week's Psalm is about following God and staying on the right path
BIG IDEA - I am confident because God leads me.
THE BIBLE: Your Word is a Lamp for My Feet: Psalm 119:101-105
INSTRUCTIONS: Look up the story in your Bible.
Hold up a light source for this segment, such as a flashlight, lantern, cell phone light, or glow stick.
TODDLER TIPS: Consider passing around the lamp or flashlight that kids can take turns turning on and off.
Light is very important! It helps us to see everything around us. When we can see things clearly, we know which way to go.
God’s words to us, like those right here in the Bible, are like light for our lives. When we obey God’s words, they help to protect us from harm and danger. And when we need to know what to do and what not to do, God helps us figure it out.
Read verse 103 again. The psalmist, or the writer of the psalm, says God's words are sweeter than honey. That means he loves God's Word so much and enjoys spending time with God. When we have that same love for God's Word, we will read the Bible more. And when we read the Bible more, we will always know which way God is leading us!
Toddler ACTIVITY | What is this?
Have your child try to guess what is in your bag!
INSTRUCTIONS: Place random objects into different paper bags. Have your child/ren come up and guess what's in each bag without looking in the bag. Try to choose items that kids might not be able to guess right away.
Sometimes, it's hard to know what something is when we can't see it! God's Word is a light that helps us see God.
I am confident because God leads me!
PRAYER
Thank You, God, for being a lamp in my life. You lead me and make sure I stay safe. Thank You for Your words that help me to know the right thing to do.
SING: A SERIES ON THE PSALMS
SERIES OVERVIEW:
People say music is the universal language, something everyone loves in one form or another, and a way we can communicate shared emotion and experience even across generations, culture, location, backgrounds, and traditions. Much of what is expressed in the book of Psalm are things we experience and feel today. Because of that, we can learn a lot about God and ourselves in these Psalms. When kids can claim these five things – I am wonderful because God made me; I am safe because God watches over me; I am confident because God leads me; I am forgiven because God loves me; I am not afraid because God can be trusted – they will be unstoppable in their life with God!
