SERIES DESCRIPTION
In this three-part lesson series, Children learn that God has plans for all of us if we will listen and obey.
Lesson 1 - Daniel - Great Man of Prayer
After completing this lesson, the children will learn that we should honor God, as did Daniel, above everything else. God will protect us when we trust and obey Him. Memory Work - Psalm 118:8; Scripture Reading and Discussion - Daniel 6:1-28.
Application: Daniel was a man of integrity. He refused to follow evil laws that would force him to disobey God. Matthew 10:28 states, "Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell." We should honor God above everything else. When we trust and obey God, He will protect us.
Lesson 2 - Esther Helps God's People
After completing this lesson, the children will see that we should never place our own happiness above the needs of others. Memory Work - Psalm 106:3; Scripture Reading and Discussion - Esther 4:5-5:5, 7:1-10.
Application: Esther's life was remarkable, God used her to save the Jewish people. Esther was willing to do the right thing, this is an important thing to remember. As God gives us opportunities will we be eager to do the right thing? If we drag our feet or think of excuses why we can't/won't do the right thing, the opportunity will pass to someone who will trust and obey God.
Lesson 3 - God's Big Plans for You
After completing this lesson, the children will see how God can use them to do big things for Him. Memory Work - Jeremiah 29:11; Scripture Reading and Discussion - Psalms 33:16-18, 91:14-16, and 118:24-26.
Application: God can and does use people today. If we're obedient and are willing to follow where God leads us, we can do many things that will bring God glory. We can rely on God to give us the strength, wisdom and love we need to get the job done. No job is too big for God. God is such a loving father, that He allows us to participate in His plans. He guides us and helps us grow in so many ways. He is wonderful.
