KNOWING PSALM’S BOOK

FRIENDS, THE Bible is a very special book, isn’t it? And today you will learn about another book of poetry, the second poetry book of the Bible, the Book of Psalms.

Psalms is a book well known and easy to be found, it is in the middle of the Bible. Many people, even those who don’t have the habit of reading the Bible, they usually have at home a painting or an object with Psalm 23. Do you know it? (Wait for their participation). It says "The Lord is my shepherd and I shall not want".

The book of Psalms took hundreds of years to be ready, a very long time. They also say that the Psalms were used as music in the Bible times, and today many are used in forms of songs.

One of the leaders of David's choir was called Asaph and Korah belonged to a family of official musician’s, and they also wrote some Psalms. But most of the Psalms were written by David. They were known as the psalmist and used various musical instruments to praise God.

David had a kind heart, always respected God and praises Him with great joy. Do you know what the greatest pleasure of David was, kids? Go to the house of God and sing praises to exalt Him.

Before being a king, David was a simple shepherd of his father. He took care of each one of them with much love, that’s why God chose him to be the king of Israel. Only someone very special could write a book so beautiful and blessed ... isn’t it kids?

CONCLUSION

Pals, reading the Psalms we learn to praise God that He deserves the worship. We must praise God as David did with joy and much pleasure. Let’s worship God singing Psalm 100? (Educator, sing with the class and then make a prayer with them).

Psalms 100

Celebrate with joy to the Lord
All the inhabitants of the Earth
Serve the Lord with gladness,
Presenting to the Lord with singing
You know that the Lord is good
And eternal is His goodness and faithfulness
From generation to generation
Hallelujah, glory, hallelujah!
Celebrate with joy to the Lord
All the inhabitants of the Earth
Serve the Lord with gladness,
Presenting to the Lord with singing
You know that the Lord is good
And eternal is His goodness and faithfulness
From generation to generation
Hallelujah, glory, hallelujah!

FUN CHAT

Educator, take pictures from these items: cassette tape and vinyl records. Take a DVD, CD and a hymnal of the UCKG and the Bible.

Start by saying: "When we heard the music of a particular singer or group, we purchased their CD or DVD, right? Who of here has CDs or DVDs at home? (Wait for their participation). A few years ago it was very different, as the current CDs and DVDs (show them) didn’t exist. There were only (show pictures) cassette tapes and vinyl records.

In the hymnal (show them) there are several songs, and they are all praises to glorify God. When we praise whole-hearted, we receive God's presence. Through the music we express what we are feeling, and there are some songs that are true prayers to God. As we learned today, the Bible (show it) also has his music book, the book of Psalms, we must meditate on it constantly, as the Psalms teach us to worship God as He deserves to be worshiped”.

Conclude the discussion by asking the following questions:

1. Who likes to sing?

2. What kind of music do you sing?

3. What is the music of Jesus that you most like to sing?

4. Do you like to sing for Jesus?

5. In your opinion, it is important to worship God?
