The Bible Tells Me That I Am Special
At the time God made Earth and Heaven before any grasses or shrubs had
sprouted from the ground, God had not yet sent rain on Earth. There was not
even anyone around to work the ground, so God formed man out of dirt from
the ground and blew into his nostrils the breath of life. Then the man came alive!
God planted a garden in Eden, in the east. He made all kinds of trees grow
from the ground, trees beautiful to look at, and fruits good to eat. There was also
in the middle of the garden a very special tree. Then God put the man in the
garden to work the ground and keep it in order. God said, "You are free to eat
from any tree in the garden. But you must never eat the fruit from the special
tree" God had formed all the wild animals and all the birds out of the ground.
Then he brought them to the man to see what he would call them. Whatever the
man called each creature became its name. So, the man named all the domestic
animals, all the birds, and all the wild animals.
One day, God thought of making a helper who is right for the man. He
caused him to fall into a deep sleep. While the man was sleeping, God formed a
woman from the rib that He had taken from the man. He brought her to the man.
God called the man Adam and the woman Eve. He told them that it was their job
to take care of Eden. God blessed them, saying, "All this is for you."

Josiah was eight years old when he became king of Judah. He ruled 31
years from Jerusalem. He followed the example 1:13 of his ancestor David and
always obeyed God.
As years went by, King Josiah did the

right thing for God. He stopped the worship
of idols in different places. He tore down their
altars and statues. After cleaning the land,
King Josiah sent people to repair the temple
of God. A man named Hilkiah helped the king
during his' rule. He handled the money for
the repair and to pay the workers. While
cleaning the temple, Hilkiah found an old
book. It was the Book of God's Law. King
Josiah learned from the book that people did
not obey God.
The king asked the leaders and the people to come to Jerusalem. He had
the Book of God's Law read to them. Then the king promised to obey God and to
follow His laws. He asked everyone to make the same promise.

When God's people came to Jericho, the city was all locked up. The people
of Jericho did not want God's people to come in. They also did not love God.
God told His people to take over the land. They were supposed to take
control of every city, including Jericho. But how would they ever get into Jericho?
But God had a plan. God told Joshua, the leader, to march around the city
walls once a day for six days. Then God said, "On the seventh day, march around
the city seven times. When you go around the seventh time, have the priests
blow their trumpets and have the people shout" At first, Joshua and the peon Pe
did not understand God's plan. But still, they obeyed God and did what they were
told.
On the seventh day, all God's people marched around Jericho. On the
seventh time around the city, the priests began to blow their trumpets, and the
people let out a loud shout. Do you know what happened? Those big, strong

LET’S GO!
The Bible Tells Me to Love God

One day, Jesus was teaching the people in the temple. One of them asked
Jesus, Teacher, which is the most important commandment in the Book of the
Law?
18
Jesus answered, "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, and
mind. This is the first and most important commandment. The second most
important commandment is like this one: Love others as much as you love
yourself."
To love God with all your heart means that you should keep your heart
right before God. When you made a mistake or did something wrong, you have
to say sorry to God right away and to the person that you hurt. You must make a
promise not to do that mistake again. If somebody hurts you, you have to forgive
that person, so you will become friends again.
To love the Lord your God with all

your soul and with all your mind means
you should always think of God first. You
should always talk to God by praying and
reading the Bible day and night. Always
apply the lessons you learned from the
Bible.
To love your neighbor as you love

yourself means that you must do to other people what you would like them to do
to you. If you believe and obey these two commandments, then you will surely
live right with God.

The Bible Tells Me How to Pray
One day, Jesus was praying. When He finished, one of
his followers asked Him, "Lord, teach us how to pray Jesus
taught him the following:
When you pray, do not be like those show-offs who

love to stand up and pray in meeting places and on street
corners. They do this just to look good. When you pray, go into a
room alone and close the door. Pray to your Father in private. He
knows what is done in private, and He will reward you.
When you pray, do not talk on and on as people do

who do not know God. They think God likes to hear long prayers. Do not be like
them. Your Father knows what you need before you ask.
You should pray like this:
Our Father in heaven,

It is important to talk to God
help us to honor your name because:
Come and set up your kingdom, 1. God wants us to know Him.
so that everyone on earth will obey you 2. God really does answer prayer.
as you are obeyed in heaven. 3. We show our love to God

when we talk to Him.

survive. We will see how God cares for all things and can meet our needs.
Elijah was a man who loved God. He obeyed what God told him to do.
Ahab was the king of the land of Israel. He was a wicked man. King Ahab did not
serve God.
One day, Elijah went to King Ahab Elijah said, "King Ahab, because you will
not obey God, there will be no more rain in the land unless I command it.
If there was no rain, the food in the gardens would not grow. There would
not be any food to eat. With no rain, the lakes, rivers, and streams would dry up.
There would not be any water to drink. Do you think Elijah was afraid? The Bible
does not say if he was frightened, but it does tell us that Elijah obeyed God. Elijah
knew that God was powerful and could do anything.
God told Elijah to go to a stream named Kerith. While Elijah stayed there,
God took care of him. Every day birds brought Elijah bread and meat to eat. The
birds came every morning with food for Elijah. Elijah drank water from the stream.
God loved Elijah. He cared for all of Elijah's needs. God cares for your needs, too.

That evening, the sky grew dark but it was not a storm cloud. The cloud
was a huge flock of birds called quail flying towards the Israelites. The people
caught the birds and cooked them. They were happy to have meat to eat.
In the morning when the people came out of their tents, something
special had happened. On the ground were thin flakes. The people looked at it
and asked, "What is it?" Moses told the people. “This is the food God has given
you to eat."
All the people were happy. They all

gathered what they needed for that day.

man named Moses to lead His people out of Egypt to freedom. One-night God
had Moses gather the people together and they set out for a new home. Moses
led all God's people out of Egypt.
To get to the new home God had promised them, the people had to travel
a big wilderness. There were no towns, no restaurants, no hotels to rest in. As the
people traveled, they came to the Red Sea. They stopped there to camp.
38
But back in Egypt, Pharaoh was having second thoughts. Since he had let
all the slaves leave, who would do the work? The more he thought about this, the
angrier he got. Soon he shouted to his officers, "Gather the armies! Get the
horses and chariots! Let us go get the slaves back!" So, Pharaoh's armies set out.
They raced across the land after God's people. Soon the people could see
a big cloud of dust in the distance. They could hear the rumble of the chariots.
On one side of them was the Red Sea.
It stretched as far as the eye could see. On their other side was Pharaoh's
army. The army git closer and closer to them.
God told Moses not to be afraid. God said that He would protect them.
God told Moses to hold out his rod over the waters of the Red Sea. When Moses
did, the waters rolled back to make a dry path with walls of water on both sides.
It was a miracle! God's people hurried across the path. Now the ground was dry.
Their feet did not even get muddy.
Soon all of God's people were on the other side of the sea. But then
Pharaoh's armies began to cross the path, too. They were coming to get their
slaves. God told Moses to hold out his rod over the Red Sea again. When he did,
the waters came roaring back over the path in a great flood. The water swept the
horses and chariots of Pharaoh's army away. The army was drowned. God had

This was God’s plan. God would send His Son to the world. He would be
born as a baby and He was a gift to everyone. Mary was very happy and began
preparing for the baby's birth.
When it was time for the baby to be born, Mary and her husband
Joseph traveled to Bethlehem to pay their taxes. Because many people had also
come to pay, there was no room in Bethlehem for Mary to stay.
Joseph and Mary had to stay in a stable, a resting place for animals.
There was no crib or bed. So, when Mary gave birth, she laid the baby Jesus in
a manger, a container for the animals' hay.
An angel appeared to shepherds taking care of their sheep

outside Bethlehem's walls. He told them, "Do not be afraid. I'm here to
tell you the good news! Today a baby was born in Bethlehem. He is God's
Son. You can find Him in a stable in a manger."

Jesus' followers did not know how to feed more than 5,000 people. They
found out that there was a boy who had five loaves of bread and two small fish.
Jesus said, "Bring them to me" Then He had all the people sit down on the
grass. Jesus thanked God for the
food and began to break the five
loaves and two fish into pieces. He
gave the pieces to His followers to
give to the people. They passed the
bread and the fish around. What a
miracle! Jesus cares for the people.

Jesus said to His followers, "Gather
the leftover pieces of fish and bread
so that nothing is wasted."

see Him. When Jesus came to that place, He looked up and said to him,
"Zacchaeus, hurry down! I must stay at your house today. Zacchaeus came down
quickly and welcomed Him gladly.

MEMORY VERSE
“Forgive anyone who does you wrong., just as Christ has forgiven you. “
Colossians 3:13
LET’S GO!
I Will Forgive
One day, Peter came up to Jesus and asked, "Lord, how many times must I
forgive my brother when he does something to hurt me? Up to seven times?"
84
Jesus answered, "I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times."
Then Jesus told Peter the Story of the Unmerciful Servant.
Jesus said, "The kingdom of heaven is like a king who talked to a servant
who borrowed a lot of money from the king. But the man could not return the
money, so the king ordered that the man must sell himself, his wife, and his
children to be able to pay back the money.
The servant begged hard, 'Be patient with me, I will pay back everything!
The king felt sorry for the servant, erased the debt that he owed, and let him go.
When the servant went out, he found out that one of the other servants owed
him a small amount of money. He grabbed him and hurt him. "Pay me back!" he
demanded. The other servant begged him. "Be patient with me, I will pay you
back!" But the forgiven servant did not listen to his fellow servant and had him
arrested and put in jail until he could pay back the money.
Other servants felt sad about what happened. They told the king what had
happened. The king called for the forgiven but unmerciful servant and reminded
him of how he was shown forgiveness and although he did not return a large
amount of money. Yet, he did not forgive his fellow servant for a small amount of
money. He was punished and jailed.
This is how my Heavenly Father will treat each of you unless you forgive
your brother from your heart" Jesus said.
85
Direction: Make a prayer for forgiving others.

Hebrews 13:5a
LET’S GO!
I Will Be Thankful
Solomon was a very rich
king. As he grew richer, he learned
more important life lessons. He
learned that the more money
people had, the more they wanted.
Rich people could not sleep and
become frustrated. They kept on
88
thinking about their wealth and who would take care of it when they die. This is
because you cannot take any wealth with you after you die. Solomon was also
wise. He decided that instead of worrying about being rich, he would try to enjoy
life and allow God to give him joy in his heart.
One night, God appeared to him in a dream and said, "Solomon, ask for
anything you want, and I will give it to you"
Solomon answered, "Lord, I am your servant, and you have made me king
in my father's place. But l am very young and know so little about being a leader.
And now I must rule your chosen people, even though there are too many of
them to count. Please make me wise and teach me the difference between right
and wrong. Then I will know how to rule your people."
Then God said, "Solomon, I am pleased that you asked for this. You could
have asked to live a long time or to have more riches. or you could have asked
for your enemies to be destroyed. Instead, you asked for wisdom to make the
right decisions. So, I will make you wiser than anyone who has ever lived or ever
will live. I will also give you what you did not ask for. You will be rich and
respected as long as you live, and you will be greater than any other king. If you
obey me and follow my commands, as your father David did, I will let you live a
long time."
Solomon woke up and realized that God had spoken to him in the dream.
He went back to Jerusalem and offered sacrifices to please the Lord.
