Our CDTX lesson on Sunday September 26th revolved around the birth of one of Israel’s greatest leaders, Moses. The Biblical narrative of Moses’ birth can be found in Exodus 1:1-2:10.
Below are follow-up questions for you to discuss with your children…one for each day of the week. Parents are encouraged to guide the depth of discussion based on the age of their child. Please make it a priority to engage in these Faith-Fueling family discussions!
Monday Sept 27th: Moses was a great leader. God did amazing things through him. And yet, Moses was a normal human being, just like you and me. Sometimes we find it hard to believe that God can use us in mighty ways, like He used people like Moses, but that is absolutely the truth. What does 1 Timothy 1:12 teach us about Jesus doing great things through us?
Tuesday Sept 28th: From birth, God had a plan for Moses’ life. Moses couldn’t always see the plan clearly, and sometimes it looked like things weren’t going to go so well. However, God was always in charge, even in the times that seemed rough. What does Jeremiah 32:17 say about God always being in charge of things?
Wednesday Sept 29th: Moses was rescued from the river, because Pharoah’s daughter had compassion on him. Compassion is a great characteristic; it means caring for others in sincere and helpful ways. As followers of the Savior Jesus, we are created to be compassionate people. What does Colossians 3:12 teach us?
Thursday Sept 30th: The story of Moses is the story of God leading his people out of slavery. Moses was God’s chosen instrument to do so, but it was really God that saved his people from slavery. We too have been saved from slavery….the slavery of sin and the slavery of being punished for the sins we commit. Jesus has saved us from that “slavery”, and we are super thankful he has done so. What does Romans 6:1-7 teach about this?
Friday Oct 1st: When Moses was rescued from the river, his life was changed forever. When we are connected to the Savior Jesus, and forgiven all of our sins (and promised that we will live forever in heaven) our lives are also changed forever. What does Romans 6:4 teach us about this?
