Main Points
Let me begin with a discipleship question: how will you follow Jesus in prayer and dependence on God this week? In this lesson shaped by Calvary Boise's teaching on KIDS TIME: Sing! - November 1, 2020, Christ invites us to receive truth with humility, practice repentance, and walk in faithful obedience.
Sin and Salvation
Have you ever known somebody so well that you knew exactly what they were going to say welcome to our new series sing where. We're going to learn about through the psalms who god is and who we are but before we jump into today's lesson let's pray.
- God help us to understand how you see us and how you want us to see you we ask this in jesus name amen.
- Thanks for praying now it's time to open up your bible to the book of psalms what do you think psalms new testament or.
- Old testament old testament that's right we're going to be in chapter 139 today and we're going to be talking about how we are.
- Wonderful because god's the one who made us now a song spelled p-s-a-l-m is like a song or a poem that was often used.
To worship god and so when we're reading through a psalm in the bible we want to remember that it's less like reading a. Story and more like reading the words to a song or the words of poetry that somebody has given us so let's look at.
Prayer and Dependence
To understand I can never escape from your spirit I can never get away from your presence those are some beautiful words and I. Want you to meditate on these things that we learn as we read this psalm repeat after me some of these key ideas that.
- We take from psalm 139 god knows everything about me say that out loud god knows everything about me god knows everything I do.
- And finally god is always with me god is always with me god knows us so well it gives me an idea for a.
- Game time okay I'm calling this one finish the sentence we'll see if you guys know me as well as god does by seeing.
- If you can finish my sentence so I'll give you a sentence with a blank at the end you fill it in with what.
You think I'm going to say let's do it first sentence take me out to the ball fill in the blank what do you. Think I'm going to say next take me out to the ball store I need to buy a new soccer ball what all right.
Grace and Justification
Me together in my mother's womb thank you for making me so wonderfully complex your workmanship is marvelous how well I know it we. Are god's workmanship just like before I want you to think about these words and let's repeat some of the key ideas that we.
- Can take from the song god made me I want you to say that god made me god cares about me and lastly I.
- Am special to god I am special to god don't ever forget that you guys you are so special to god and we know.
- That each and every human being is truly special to god so that's why I'm excited to give you guys an opportunity at home.
- To participate in something we're doing as a church family this year we're going to be doing operation christmas child where families will have.
A chance to take an ordinary shoe box and to fill it with toys and goodies and hygiene items that are going to be. Given to a child somewhere around the world so not only will that child get a gift on christmas that they get to open.
Faith and Obedience
You can think about them through the rest of the week psalm 139 starting in verse 9 says if I ride the wings of. The morning if I dwell by the farthest oceans even there your hand will guide me and your strength will support me I could.
- Ask for the darkness to hide me and the light around me to become night but even in darkness I cannot hide from you.
- To you the night shines bright as the day think about those words this week all right everybody that's it for this time I'll.
- See you all when we meet again have a good one god bless you all right this next song is old song classic song.
- Called this little light of mine so if you guys know it I want you to be singing and I want you to be.
Doing the hand motions if you know those as well so follow along here we go all right we'll hide it under a bush. Oh one more here we go oh let it shine till jesus comes is all right good job everybody hello everybody we are gonna.
