A plan to save the world

Genesis 12-21

Something to say
God makes amazing promises! Explain to the kids that the promise God made to Abraham, was a promise for our great, great, great.....grandparents, it was a promise for our great grandparents, it was a promise for our grandparents, our parents and for us too!

Something to show
Hide stars around the room with children's names written on the back. Send a child to go and find the stars and read out the name on the back. Give each child a cheer and remind them they are a descendant of Abraham! Lastly reveal a very special star with Jesus' name written on the back. Remind that this was the exciting promise God made to Abraham. not only that he would have lots of children but that one of his descendants would be Jesus who would save the whole world! 

Something to pray
Lead the children in a prayer asking God to remind us that he is always faithful and he keeps his promises. Thank God for having an amazing plan and that we get to be part of that plan.

A verse to remember
And all peoples on earth will be blessed through you. Genesis 12:3
