- Objective:
- God promises to give us the strength we need
as we trust in Him. Teach the children to look to the future
and see how God may want them to serve Him.
-
- (Speak with the children)
- When you see a picture in your mind, is that
a vision? Do you ever day dream? What about when your mind wishes
for something wonderful; Could that be a vision? Think of how
God can use you to help other people. Close your eyes and think,
a picture in your mind, of how God could use you to tell others
about Jesus. You might even dream about how God might use you
to help Him when you are grown up? Could these be visions from
God?
-
- (Teach the children)
- When God gives you a vision, He allows you
to see clearly with your heart and mind. When the eagle is flying
high, he can see very clearly with his eyes. He can see all around
and very far away. God wants to give you eagles wings and eagles
eyes in your heart and mind, so you can vision His plans for
you. He will help you do everything He wants you to do.

- New Vision - Flying with
the Eagles
The Kid Cave Critters love to watch the eagles
fly. They have climbed to the highest mountain in the Kid Cave
Forest to get a better look. They carefully followed the safest
path to the top. The valley is more beautiful than they thought.
The Critters are very happy they can see what the eagles see.
Repeat today's Bible verse.
- (closing)
- If we want our hearts and minds to see what
God wants us to see, we must stay close to Him. God wants us
to see the way He sees. He wants us to love the way He loves.
His Holy Spirit can teach us how by helping us to understand
God's words in the Bible! Then the pictures in our hearts and
minds can be visions from God.
Worship God with music.
Activities:
