Junior / Adult — Week 40

Mender of Broken Things — Part 2
God Still Answers Prayer (by CindyGirl)

Mender of Broken Things
Open Lesson Plan → Open Handout →

No burden is too heavy for God to lift, and no detail is too small for Him to care about[cite: 42, 43]. When we humbly bow before the Lord in simple faith, He meets us in our weakness and works in His perfect timing to heal broken hearts and answer prayer.

Song Meditation:
“The Lord is not too busy that He can't reach down and mend a broken heart; and my burden is not too heavy that He can't hear a plea of faith: God still answers prayer[cite: 43]!” — Karen Peck & New River[cite: 43]

GOD Bless You All. : )[cite: 43]

Grades 3–6 — Week 40

Moses: Egypt…Meet Almighty God! (Part 3)
The Call to Surrender and Obey (by Lisa DeVinney)

Plagues of Egypt Part 3
Open Lesson Plan → Open Handout → More Grade 3–6 Lessons →

Teacher’s Notes: God continued to display His authority over Pharaoh through the devastating hail, swarms of locusts, and the three days of thick darkness[cite: 43]. While Pharaoh resisted surrendering control, God demonstrated that He must be given first priority in every life[cite: 43].

Discussion & Reflection:[cite: 43]
  • Why did Pharaoh resist letting the people go even when Egypt was in ruins[cite: 43]?
  • What makes it difficult for people today to surrender control of their plans to God[cite: 43]?
  • When God calls us to a hard or scary task, how can we trust that He will give us the strength to obey[cite: 43]?

Make It Known — Part 3
Tell What Great Things the Lord Hath Done (by Julie Pisacane)

Tell What Jesus Has Done
Open Lesson Plan → Open Handout →

Opening Prayer: We thank God for all the marvelous things He has done in our lives and ask Him for opportunities to testify of His goodness[cite: 43].

Mark 5:19: “...Go home to thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and hath had compassion on thee[cite: 43].”
Lesson Application:[cite: 43]

After Jesus healed the man in the country of the Gadarenes, He instructed him to return home and share God's compassion with his friends and family[cite: 43]. In the same way, we can tell others how much Jesus loves us and invite friends to church and Sunday School[cite: 43]!

Close in Prayer.[cite: 43]
