Big Truth: God saves his people from the egyptians
PLAY a variation of a game where you need to free something from one area (Egypt) and deliver them to another (the wilderness) It could be a bucket of balls that you need to move to a goal, or a box of minifigures that you need to move to the garden.
Watch the Bible Story Video .
Who are the Israelites and what did God promise them? Read Exodus 6 v6-8)
How many plagues did God send to show Pharoah that he is the almighty God and command him to let His people go? 10
How many of the plagues can you list? Blood, frogs, gnats, flies, livestock, boils, hail, locusts, darkness, death of the firstborn.
What did God tell his people to paint over their doors to save them from the final plague? The blood of a lamb (read Exodus 12 v12-13)
TALK about how the lamb had to die to save the Israelites from Egypt. How is this story like the story of Jesus? We are saved by Jesus - his blood means that God ‘passes over our sin’.
TALK about how God saved his people again by making a path through the sea so they could be free. How has God made it possible for us to be free?
Try and memorise Exodus 12 v13
You read it > look up any words you don’t understand > you read it and skip words for children to fill > you read it > they read it
