Key Verse<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cRemember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent…\u201d\u00a0 Revelation 3:3a<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>Can you remember anything about what we have been studying so far?\u00a0 The whole point of this study is to help us to remember the events in the Bible.\u00a0 Remember is the key word.\u00a0 If we don\u2019t remember and hold fast to what we learn from God\u2019s Word, we will never grow in Christ.\u00a0 The more we learn about God\u2019s Word, the more we want to be like Him.<\/p>\n

In this lesson we will generally overview the 12 Historical Books.\u00a0 We have already discussed the importance of learning the history in the Bible.\u00a0 By learning it, we begin to understand the significance of why things happened.\u00a0 God had a plan.\u00a0 It is hard to understand unless you learn the Old Testament history.\u00a0 While it was happening, men didn\u2019t fully understand what that plan was, but through faith they believed.\u00a0 The more we learn about the Bible, the more pieces of the puzzle we can fit together.\u00a0 Each piece helps us become better students of God\u2019s Words, helping us become better Christians.<\/p>\n

This study ends the time frame of the Old Testament.<\/p>\n

In any lesson, you may want to work on your coloring timeline \u2013 especially when it relates to the lesson.<\/p>\n

Display the poster of the books of the Old Testament (may be downloaded from lesson 4 blog).\u00a0 Review the books of History (showing them on the poster).<\/p>\n

Reemphasize the importance of remembering this history we are studying (have them recall a few events you discussed).\u00a0 You may have them draw a picture of their favorite story from the History.\u00a0 Obviously all of the history is too much to grasp all at once.\u00a0 These first few lessons are only to whet one\u2019s appetite to want to learn more about God\u2019s Word.\u00a0 For now, we want to focus on the basics of the order of the Bible and understanding how it fits together. Review the 3×5 cards if you made them, practicing the divisions.\u00a0 Focus on putting the books of History in order for today\u2019s lesson.<\/p>\n

Or, make a crown by adding peel and stick jewels to crown; staple to fit each child\u2019s head (remind them that the people rejected God at this time and wanted a king like the nations around).\u00a0 Also you could find a coloring sheet of one of the events you discussed.<\/p>\n

Mural Idea for today:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Today, have them remember a specific time they disobeyed God\u2019s commands.\u00a0 Was there any punishment?\u00a0 Did they recognize the break in fellowship with God?\u00a0 Ask:<\/strong>\u00a0 What happened when the Israelites disobeyed and turned from God?\u00a0 (They were taken from their land.)<\/p>\n

Have them make a \u201cWanted\u201d poster:\u00a0 \u201cWanted, someone who will commit to obey God\u2019s commands.\u201d\u00a0 Have them include some qualities desired, i.e.:\u00a0 honesty, kindness, loving, forgiving, committed to God and His Word, faithful in attendance to church, read their Bible faithfully, pray faithfully, tell others about Jesus \u2026 Give them a couple of examples if they have trouble.\u00a0 Encourage them to come up with some of their own.<\/p>\n
