Writing the Word is a simple devotional discipline. It's a habit allowing you to go deep into God's Word instead of passively reading through. Simple and effective, this written discipline has completely transformed my faith and will transform yours too!
VERSES: Judges 6:1-40 MEMORY VERSE: Judges 6:12 "...The LORD is with thee, thou mighty man of valor." BOOK TO REMEMBER: James. Write "James" on small slips of paper and hand out to students at the end of class. PRAYER: God has chosen anyone who obeys Him. May we always be careful in the things we do and say, making sure that we are obeying God all the time. SPECIAL SONG: God Raised Up Fifteen Judges (see June - Lesson - Deborah, A Female Judge on this blog). Gideon (see March - Songs We Sing In Bible Class #4 on this blog). VISUAL AID: A fleece of wool (or cotton) and a bowl of water. Wring out the water at the appropriate time. Draw a picture of an oak tree and a rock with the meat and little cakes on it. LESSON POINTS: The children of Israel enjoyed forty years of rest and peace as they obeyed God, but after that, the people again forgot God and disobeyed him. They were doing evil things and the LORD allowed the nation of Midian to rule over the Israelites for seven years. The Midianites were very cruel to the Israelites and the people ran away to the mountains and hid in dens and caves. After the Israelites had planted their crops, the Midianites and the Amalekites and a few other nations came into Israel's land. They camped in their tents and let their cattle eat all of the Israelites' crops, so there was none left to grow and everything was destroyed. There were so many invaders in the land that they looked like a swarm of grasshoppers. Israel became very poor and they cried to the LORD because of the Midianites. Why did these bad things happen to the Israelites? Because they disobeyed God and did not listen to Him (Judges 6:10). This teaches us that God will always punish our disobedience. God loved His people and heard their cries and raised up another prophet to help the people. One day, an angel of the LORD went to the town of Ophrah and sat under an oak tree that belonged to a man named Joash who had a son named Gideon. Gideon was threshing wheat in a winepress. Gideon was trying to hide the wheat from the Midianites in a winepress when the angel spoke to Gideon. The angel said, "The LORD is with you, mighty man of valor." Gideon said to the angel that if God was with him, why were all the bad things happening to the Israelites. "Now the LORD has forsaken us," he said. Do we know why all those bad things were happening to the children of Israel? YES! The people were not obeying God anymore. God told Gideon that he was strong and he was going to rescue Israel from the Midianites. Gideon was a little surprised! He asked God how could he save the people since he was a poor man and he was the youngest in his family. God told Gideon that He would be with him and that he COULD save the people. Gideon was not convinced and asked for a sign or something to show him that he could do this task that the LORD wanted him to do. Gideon told the angel not to go away because he wanted to give a present to him. The angel said he would stay. Gideon went in and killed a goat and started cooking it and made some little unleavened cakes. He brought the meat out in a basket and the broth was put in a small pot. The angel of God told him to take the meat and the unleavened cakes and put them on a rock, pouring out the broth. Gideon did what he was commanded to do. The angel of the LORD took the rod that was in his own hand and touched the meat and the cakes and flames jumped up and burned up the meat and the cakes. Then the angel was gone and Gideon built and altar there. That same night, God talked to Gideon again. He told him to take his father's second best young bull and pull down the altar that his father worshiped idols on, then to build an altar to the LORD on top of the rock. Gideon did what God said, but he was afraid of the men of the city and took ten servants with him and waited to do what God said at nighttime. When the men came out the next morning and saw that the idol's altar was torn down, they asked, "Who did this?" Someone finally said that Gideon did it. The men told Gideon's father to tell Gideon to come outside, and they would kill him for tearing down the idol's altar. Gideon's father told the men to let the idol take revenge on Gideon, not the men. From that day forward, Gideon's father called him by a new name, Jerubbaal. The Midianites and Amalekites gathered together and the Bible says that the Spirit of the LORD came upon Gideon and he blew a trumpet to tell the men to join his army. Gideon wanted God to tell him again if He really was going to help him like He said He would. Gideon took a piece of fleece of wool and put it on the floor. He said that if the fleece was wet with dew the next morning, but the ground around it was dry, then Gideon would know God was with him. He got up the next morning and there was so much dew only on the fleece that when Gideon wrung out the wool, the water filled a bowl of water! The Gideon asked God not to be mad, but if He truly was with Gideon, to do it the opposite way the next night--dew on the ground, but no water on the fleece of wool. When Gideon got up that next morning, God did just what Gideon had asked, so Gideon knew that the LORD was with him. God had chosen Gideon to deliver His people. We will study more about Gideon next time. "Older Student" Tips: Discuss what 'threshing wheat' means. A picture would be nice. Name other people that we have studied who had their names changed (Abram, Sarai, Jacob). Talk about how God makes life hard for those who do not worship Him today. (Consequences of sin, no money for food and necessities if on drugs, etc.) ACTIVITY: Fleece Materials needed: 9" x 12" yellow construction paper, 5" x 5" orange construction paper, 4" x 12" tan construction paper, 1" x 3" scrap of dark brown paper, scrap of any color paper, scrap of blue paper, two tufts of cotton batting or cotton, black crayon or marker, glue, scissors. Hand out yellow paper. This is the background. Fold yellow paper in half. Glue tan paper to the bottom of yellow paper. This is the ground. Tear dark brown paper into a mound of dirt. On the right side of yellow paper, glue dark brown paper. This is the wet ground. Cut out a small bowl. Tear out a small piece of blue paper to fit inside bowl to resemble water. In the middle of each side of yellow paper, glue cotton. Inside the yellow paper, write "#1," "water from fleece," and "bowl" on the left side of paper. See picture below. Also, draw arrows from words to correct item. Inside the yellow paper, write "#2," "dry fleece" and "wet ground" on the right side of paper. Draw a black line down the middle of paper. Turn paper over to back. Write "Was God With Gideon?" on the orange paper. (See picture above.) Fold top edge of orange paper. Glue top edge ONLY of orange paper and attach to middle of right side of yellow paper. Lift orange paper carefully and write "YES!" under orange paper. (See picture above.) Write "Judges 6" below the orange paper. Fold the paper in half again, making a good crease in the paper.
VERSES: Genesis 41:1-57 MEMORY VERSE: Genesis 41:41 "And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, See, I have set thee over all the land of Egypt." BOOK TO REMEMBER: Psalms Write "Psalms" on slips of paper to give to each child at the end of class. PRAYER: Remember to thank God for delivering us from our trials. SPECIAL SONG: The Books of the Old Testament (see March - Songs We Sing In Bible Class #3 VISUAL AID: TV Box (see February - Visual Aid #1 on this blog) and a map of Egypt for the older students. LESSON POINTS: Last week, we left Joseph in prison after the butler for about Joseph interpreting His and the bakers' dreams and it all coming true just like Joseph said. After Joseph had been in prison for two years, Pharaoh dreamed two dreams. He first dreamed that there were seven fat, healthy cows coming out of the river and they went to eat in the meadow. Then seven thin, skinny cows came up out of the river and ate up the seven fat, healthy cows. Pharaoh woke up out of his sleep and then, when he fell asleep again, he dreamed a second dream. In his second dream, Pharaoh dreamed that grew seven good, plump ears of corn on a cornstalk.Then seven thin, withered ears of corn that had been blasted with the east wind grew after the good ears.The thin ears of corn ate up the seven good, plump ears of corn. When Pharaoh woke up out of his dream, he had no idea what the dreams meant. He called for all his magicians and wise men in all of Egypt, but they, too, had no idea what his dreams meant. Then the chief butler (remember him?) spoke up and said to Pharaoh, "I am so sorry I didn't think of this sooner, but when I was in prison, there was a young Hebrew who had been the servant of the captain of the guard (who was that? Potiphar!) who was in prison with me and the chief baker. The baker and I each had a dream and this young Hebrew told us the meaning of our dreams...and the what he said came true!" Pharaoh hurriedly calls for Joseph in the prison. Joseph shaves and puts on some clean clothes and goes to see what Pharaoh wants. Pharaoh tells Joseph all about the seven fat, healthy cows and the skinny cows and the seven plump ears of corn and the thin ears of corn. Joseph tells Pharaoh that God will tell Pharaoh what his dreams mean. Joseph says that God will show Pharaoh what is going to happen in the future.There will be seven years with lots and lots of food though out all the land of Egypt, but after those seven good years, there will be seven years of famine! What does famine mean? That's right! No food! There was going to be seven years when there would be no food at all! Joseph said that, because Pharaoh dreamed two dreams with the same meaning, it meant that the dream was from God and that all of these things would happen very soon. When Joseph suggests that Pharaoh choose a man who was honest and wise and to set him over the land to prepare for the famine, guess who Pharaoh chooses? That's right! Joseph! Pharaoh said that because God had showed Joseph what his dreams meant, then Pharaoh would choose Joseph also and Joseph would be responsible for all that was in Pharaoh's house and only he would be greater than Joseph. Pharaoh took off his ring and put it on Joseph's hand, he gave him new, clean, fancy clothes, and a chain to go around his neck. He made Joseph ride in the second chariot behind Pharaoh and people bowed before him. Joseph was now a very important person in Egypt How old was Joseph when he stood before Pharaoh the king of Egypt? Let's turn out Bibles to Genesis 41:46 and see how old he was. (Read verse.) How old was Joseph when all this happened? 30 years old! That's not really very old and, yet, God trusted Joseph to be mature enough and smart enough to obey God and do all the things God told him to do. The Bible says all these things happened just like the dreams said they would. There were seven years that Joseph prepared and gathered a great amount of food, getting ready for the famine. And the famine came and it came hard! The famine hit everywhere, so that it came to be that the ONLY place to buy food was in Egypt, People from many different countries were coming to Egypt to buy their food from Joseph. There was a special reason why God chose Joseph and not anyone else to take care of Egypt's food and we will find out next time! "Older Student" Tips: We should always obey God. When we are young and when we are old, we should listen to God. How can we listen to God today? Through the Bible! God will not talk to us like he talked to Joseph (Heb. 1:1, 2), but He talks to us through His Word and we must read it! Joseph was young, but still God trusted Joseph. God knew Joseph's heart. He knew Joseph had a good, honest, and pure heart. That's how our hearts should be. Good. Honest. Pure. Take a look on a Bible map to see how large of an are Egypt was and realize what a great responsibility Joseph at age 30 had! Look at the different countries that probably came to Egypt to buy food. There many times in our lives when we cannot see God's plan in our lives. Think about Joseph and how he could have been in total despair sitting there in prison, but he knew God would take care of him and chose to trust Him. God did provide for Joseph, as He will provide for us in our trials. We only need to be faithful and obedient...and patient. How long was Joseph in prison waiting for God to answer his prayer? At least two years in prison! ACTIVITY: Pharaoh's Dream Wheel Materials needed: Two sheets of different colored index or card stock (thick) paper for each child, an thinner paper if making the Odd Shape Pattern, one fastener, scissors, crayons. Before class, the Bible teacher draws two 8" circles on each index paper. BOTTOM WHEEL: On one paper the teacher draws two intersecting lines through the center of one of the circles, sectioning off the circle into four equal parts. (See the picture above). TOP WHEEL: For the second paper, it is easier to make a pattern for the odd shape that the students are to cut out of the second circle. (See picture below for odd shape.) How to make this shape as a stencil: draw an extra 8" circle on a separate piece of paper. Cut a quarter out of the extra 8" circle and generously round the tip off of the quartered paper. This is used as a pattern to draw the odd shape on the second circle. DRAWING LINES: Either the Bible teacher can draw all lines on the circles, including this odd shape, before class, or take the time so that the students can draw them. It is easier and faster if the Bible teacher draws the lines. The student cuts out the two different colored circles, if able. If not, the Bible teacher cuts out the circles. If desired, have the students cut out the odd shape out of the second circle. Place fastener in the middle of both circles and push easily. (Tip: I have found it is easier if the bible teacher uses an ice pick to make the hole before the students put the fastener in.) Turn the entire two circles with fastener on its back and spread the fastener apart to secure. The student draws each picture in the opening on the bottom wheel. (See picture below.) Write "How Joseph Gets Out Of Prison" and "Genesis 41:1-57" on the top wheel. The student turns the wheel to tell the story.
