Junior / Adult — Week 29

Unmarked Poison
Guarding the Tongue and Words (by Dwight Rhodes)

Unmarked Poison
Open Lesson Plan → Open Handout →

Just as poison is labeled with a skull and crossbones to warn children of physical death, words spoken in gossip, slander, or malice carry deadly spiritual poison[cite: 33]. Words once spoken cannot be retrieved[cite: 33]. Believers must submit their speech to the Holy Spirit, speaking truth in love and encouraging others rather than tearing them down[cite: 33].

Discussion Questions:
  1. Have you ever experienced the sting of someone gossiping about you[cite: 33]?
  2. What does Scripture teach about controlling the tongue (James 3)?
  3. How can the indwelling presence of Christ give us self-control and kindness before we speak[cite: 33]?

GOD Bless You All. : )

Joseph Reunited
Open Lesson Plan → Open Handout → More Grade 3–6 Lessons →

Author’s Notes: This lesson concludes the series on Joseph[cite: 33]. We witness the touching reunion between Joseph and his father Jacob, followed by the end of their earthly lives[cite: 33]. In Hebrews 11:22, God commemorates Joseph not for his Egyptian palace or wealth, but for his faith when he gave instructions concerning his bones returning to the Promised Land[cite: 33].

Fill in the Blanks & Review:[cite: 33]
  1. Pharaoh encouraged Joseph to bring his father ____________________ down to dwell in Egypt[cite: 33].

  4. Jacob adopted and blessed Joseph's sons, Manasseh and Ephraim, as his own[cite: 33].

Opening Prayer: May our gracious God open our eyes to see all the goodness He places around us every single day[cite: 33].

Genesis 1:3-4: “And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. And God saw the light, that it was good...”[cite: 33]

Psalm 139:14: “I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works...”

Zephaniah 3:17: “...He will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing[cite: 33].”
Group Activity:

Children discuss how God created light and every creature, how He knew them before they were born, and sing a song together celebrating God's love[cite: 33].

Close in Prayer.[cite: 33]
