So we could learn these things.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Summary:<\/strong>\u00a0 Today we continue with the second of the Personal books, Psalms.\u00a0 Remember that the Psalms is broken up into 5 books.\u00a0 We will look at book four of the Psalms (chapters 90-106) today, comparing them to the book of Numbers.\u00a0 If you remember, the main theme of Numbers was wandering in the wilderness when they were disciplined for disobeying God.\u00a0 They learned to completely rely upon God \u2013 for food, water and protection.<\/p>\n<p>If you remember, the name Numbers came from a numbering of the people at the beginning of the book and then again at the end.\u00a0 These were two different groups of people, the old generation and then a new generation.\u00a0 When the 12 spies were sent into the land (the land promised to Abraham), only Joshua and Caleb brought back a good report claiming God would allow them to conquer the land.\u00a0 When the Israelites disobeyed God\u2019s command to cross over into the Promised Land, they were disciplined.\u00a0 The old generation would die and not enter into the Promised Land because they refused to obey God\u2019s command.\u00a0 Joshua and Caleb were the only ones to escape God\u2019s discipline (wandering in the wilderness for 40 years.)<\/p>\n<p>During the book of Numbers, we saw God guiding, providing for, and protecting His people until they reached the Promised Land.\u00a0 As we compare Numbers to the 4<sup>th<\/sup> book of the Psalms, see how God has always been there for His people, providing and protecting.\u00a0 He wants to be the ruler (king) of their lives.\u00a0 Man will not live forever.\u00a0 For those who choose to put their trust in God, He becomes a personal God.\u00a0 A relationship is established.\u00a0 He becomes their refuge \u2013 just as God was for the Israelites in the wilderness.<\/p>\n<p>Encourage your students to bring their Bibles and use them!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Emphasis:\u00a0 <\/strong>Once we have placed our trust in God (Jesus), we must dwell in Him (live a life pleasing to Him).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Optional Worksheets to be downloaded:<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/biblicalpath.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Lesson-44-Volume-1-Childrens-Worksheet-1.pdf\">Lesson 44 &#8211; Volume 1 Children&#8217;s Worksheet 1<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/biblicalpath.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Lesson-44-Volume-1-Childrens-Reinforcement-Worksheet.pdf\">Lesson 44 &#8211; Volume 1 Children&#8217;s Reinforcement Worksheet<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ideas for children:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Stickers always work well with children.
