Unit 3 - GOD'S HIDEOUT
BIBLICAL REFERENCE
Psalms 91.1-2
Psalms 91.1-2
Teach children that God protect those who
trust in Him and practice His Word.
“He…shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. …My God, in Him I will trust.”
(Psalm 91.2)
INTRODUCTION
Take to the class pictures of: nuclear power plants,
beaches with many bathers and a street with many cars (you can find in
magazines or internet).
Start by saying: "Did you know that there are
some dangerous places that children cannot go? A nuclear power plant, for
example (show the picture of the nuclear power plant), is a place that requires
extreme care and only the adults working can stay there. But there are other
places where children can go, but need to be accompanied by an adult, for
example (show pictures), the street and the beach. In these places, children
must be accompanied; it can be dangerous if they are all alone. Today we will
learn about one place where we will be safe and secure. Let’s find out where is
this place? Then let’s pay attention.
GOD’S HIDEOUT
THERE WAS a very shy boy named Luke. The kid lived in fear and that's why his
friends always made fun of him. Luke was afraid of some animals, didn’t like to
stay alone at any time, and getting sick was other thing that left him worried.
Luke didn’t like to be fearful and therefore was very sad.
One day, the teacher was teaching at
to trust in God and the importance of not being afraid of anything. Listening
to these words, Luke asked what he should do to not be afraid, because he frequently
attended to
, but was still afraid of
almost everything. Then the teacher replied that Psalm 91 teaches us to trust
in God, it is written that God protects us from evil, because He loves us. He
pounds and save the lives of those who trust in Him, leaving apart from the
hazards.
Just as bird don’t allow any animal approaching the
nest, with their wings covering the little birds, so God cares for His children
and kept them in His special hideout only those who are faithful to Him.
Buddies, Luke was very happy with the explanation and
asked the teacher what he should do to stay in God’s hideout. And the teacher
replied that first he should abandon fear and trust on the Word of God.
From that day, Luke started to trust in God and became
a brave boy.
CONCLUSION
Children, God wants us to trust in His Word. When we
are afraid, we demonstrate a lack of confidence in Him. We should not act like Luke
who was in fear of everything, because we have God as our hideout where no harm
may reach because our Heavenly Father loves us and take care of us. Amen?
FUN CHAT
Take to class pictures or drawings from magazines of a
transportation car of values (banks). Educator, show the pictures to the kids
and ask:
"Who of you already saw a car like this? Do you
know what it is? (Wait for their participation.) This vehicle is known as
transportation car of values; it is a strong car that is used to transport the
money from big businesses. These cars are armored, have systems of cameras and
the guards that work on these cars wear bullet-proof vest to protect them. But, even with such
protection, there are assaults on these cars and with such a protection it
wasn’t enough to prevent this of happening. Today we learned that we are fully
protected only when we are in God’s hideout, in His presence. Buddies, when we
are obedient to the Word of God and when we trust Him, then it means that we
are constantly close to Him and only those who know and practice the will of
God are protected and saved by Him”.
Educator, teach Psalm 91 singing and then make a prayer
for the class:
HE who dwells in the shelter of the Most High
Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty
I will say to the Lord, He is my king
I will say to the Lord, He is my king
Amen!
I will say to the Lord, He is my king
I will say to the Lord, He is my king
