• Describe what part of the creation story is surprising to you. • Why did God create everything?

• Talk about a time you saw goodness in creation. How did you react or respond?

In the beginning, nothing existed except for God. God created the heavens and the earth. God spoke: “Let there be light!” What God said happened. God saw that the light was good. Evening came, and then morning came. That was the first day. God spoke again: “Let there be an expanse between the waters to separate them.” What God said happened. God said, “Let the water under the sky be gathered into one place, and let the dry land appear.” What God said happened. God saw that it was good. Then God said, “Let the earth make plants and trees with fruits and seeds.” What God said happened, and God saw that it was good. Next, God placed lights in the sky. God created the sun to shine during the day and the moon and stars to shine at night. God saw that it was good. Evening came, and then morning came. That was the fourth day. Next, God made creatures that move and swim in the water. He made birds to soar across the sky. God saw that it was good. Then God made more animals—livestock, creatures that crawl, and wildlife—to live on the earth. When God said it, it happened. And God saw that all of it was good. Christ Connection: Jesus is Lord over all of creation. The Son has always existed. The Bible says everything was created by Him and for Him, and He holds everything together. All of creation exists to bring God glory.

ABRAM/ ABRAHAM God called Abram and Sarai to follow Him in faith out of Ur. He promised Abraham both land and blessing. But most surprising, He promised to make childless Abraham the father of many nations. At 99 and 89 years old, they gave birth to a son Isaac. God changed their names to Abraham and Sarah and promised, “I will be your God and you will be my people.” God promised to bless all the earth through Abraham, and many generations later, he would fulfill his promised in Abraham’s decendent Jesus.

JACOB/ ISRAEL Jacob married both Leah and Rachel, and had 12 sons, who became the fathers of the 12 tribes of Israel: Reuben, Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, Zebulun, Dan, Naphtali, Gad, Asher, Joseph, and Benjamin.

SOLOMON

God made a promise to David that he would always have a descendant on the throne. This promise is kept throughout the time of the kings, but ultimately fulfilled in his descendant Jesus, who remains on the throne for all eternity.

JOSHUA

SHEALTIEL

JOSIAH Josiah became king at the age of eight. He was a righteous king who “walked in all the ways of David his father and turned not aside to the right hand or to the left.” (2 Kings 22:2). During Josiah’s reign, a lost scroll of God’s laws was found and when King Josiah dicovered that the people had not been obeying God’s laws, he was very sad. He read the book to the people in the temple and promised God would follow God’s laws with his whole heart and soul.

MOUNT SINAI

This is the Nile River. The Nile is the LONGEST RIVER in the world, winding and flowing for 4,160 miles. That’s nearly as far as Hong Kong is from Brisbane, Australia! The Nile flows through several countries on the continent of Africa, including Egypt. Moses was born in Egypt. When Moses was a baby, his mother kept him safe from Pharaoh by HIDING HIM IN A BASKET among the reeds growing in the Nile River.

Mount Sinai is believed to be in the southern part of the Sinai Peninsula, located between the continents of Africa and Asia. When Moses went up the mountain to talk to God, thunder and lightning started and a thick cloud covered the mountain. God spoke and the people listened.

BIBLE SKILLS FOR

KIDS

What are the Bible Skills for Kids?

How do I read this document?

Bible Skills for Kids covers 19 Bible skills and concepts that preschoolers and kids can learn as they interact with and learn about the Bible. These Bible skills and concepts are presented through four different age ranges, from younger preschool through older kids, and reflect Bible skill goals kids can reach by the end of the age range given.

Go to the age range your child or student is in to see what Bible skills are appropriate goals for his age. You will want to check the statement before and after to see what is most suitable for your child according to his level of growth, development, and Bible learning. Learning style and pace will differ from child to child.

Why are there no specific ages listed?

What is the goal of presenting these Bible skills?

Bible Skills for Kids does not specify precise ages because God designed each child to develop differently. Your child will progress through concepts at a pace and understanding unique for how God created your child and her interaction with the Bible.

This document will give you a goal for what your child is capable of learning by the time he is a preteen. It can be helpful to start at the concept presented in the preteen age range to view the higher level Bible skills for each age group.

UNIT 2. SESSION 1

Jacob and Esau

ESSENTIAL RESOURCES

MILY FA

LEVEL OF BIBLICAL LEARNING God loves families even when family members sin. God is always ready to forgive.

GENESIS 25:19-34; 27:1-45; 32:1-3; 33 Esau and Jacob were twin sons of Isaac and Rebekah. Esau liked to be outdoors and hunt. He was his father’s favorite son. Jacob liked to be at home. He was his mother’s favorite son. One day Esau went hunting. When he came home, he was very hungry. Jacob was cooking some tasty stew. “Give me some of that!” Esau said. “I’m exhausted!” Jacob replied, “First, sell me your birthright.” (A birthright is a special right given to the oldest son. It gave him more of his family’s wealth when his parents died.) Esau said, “What good is a birthright when I’m so hungry?” He traded it for the stew.

THE BIBLE MEETS LIFE Parents, today your child heard the story of Jacob and Esau. Jacob and Esau had a disagreement so serious Jacob had to run away. Later, they reunited and experienced forgiveness. How do your children show love for one another?

LEADER GUIDE Teach life application of the Bible like never before! Each Leader Guide is filled with user-friendly lesson plans, a focus on Bible skills, and specific ways kids can apply the concepts they’ve learned to their lives. Order one per leader.

Later, when Isaac was old, he told Esau, “Go hunting and bring me back some delicious meat. When you return, I will give you my special blessing.” “Quick!” Rebekah told Jacob. “I will make a meal. Dress like Esau and tie goat skins on your arms to make them hairy like Esau’s. Take the meal to your father, and he will give you the blessing!” Jacob was worried, but the trick worked. Isaac blessed Jacob instead of Esau.

LIVE IT OUT Review the Bible story with your child. Help him understand that Esau loved Jacob by showing forgiveness and welcoming him home. Explain that God expects Christians to forgive others, no matter what wrong was done. Explore ways your child can accomplish the goal of forgiveness.

When Esau returned, he was furious! When our father dies, thought Esau, I will kill Jacob! As soon as Rebekah found out about Esau’s plan, she sent Jacob far from his family for many years. He started a family of his own and became wealthy. Then one day God told Jacob, “Go back to the land of your fathers and to your family. I will be with you.” Going home meant that Jacob would see his brother, Esau, again. Jacob was afraid that Esau would still be angry with him for stealing his blessing, so Jacob gathered gifts of camels, goats, and donkeys for Esau. Jacob bowed as he got near Esau. Surprisingly, Esau ran to meet Jacob, threw his arms around Jacob, and kissed him. The brothers wept together. Jacob said, “Seeing you is like seeing God because you have accepted and forgiven me!” WEEKLY BIBLE VERSE: 1 John 4:7

LIFE POINT: God wants DAILY BIBLE READING family members to forgive Sunday: 1 John 4:7 one another. Monday: Luke 6:37 Tuesday: Colossians 3:13 TAKE Wednesday: Matthew 18:21-22 IT FURTHER Thursday: Mark 11:25 Check out the Jacob and Friday: Luke 17:3-4 Esau section of the Bible Studies Saturday: Matthew 6:14 for Life: Kids Family App.

In this sequel to the bestselling trilogy, the Prince Warriors learn that there is great risk in neglecting their armor and their training.

WRITTEN BY NEW YORK TIMES BEST-SELLING AUTHOR PRISCILLA SHIRER.

UNSEEN: THE PRINCE WARRIORS 365 DEVOTIONAL Priscilla Shirer These 365 devotions from Priscilla Shirer will give middle-grade readers daily power from God’s Word and grow them into warriors who use their spiritual armor daily. Each day’s strategy session is divided up into two sections: Reconnaissance (Recon) and Actionable Intelligence (Actionable Intel) to help readers recognize the enemy, build their defenses, and claim the victory God has planned for them.

THE PRINCE WARRIORS Priscilla Shirer As brothers, Xavier and Evan are used to battling each other. But now they’re discovering that there is a much bigger battle going on all around them. And it’s their turn to fight. Based on Ephesians 6:10–18, The Prince Warriors is the first book in Priscilla Shirer’s epic new series that brings to life the invisible struggle ensuing in the spiritual realm. Xavier, Evan, and their friends have typical lives until they enter a mysterious land called Ahoratos. There they meet their guide, Ruwach, who offers wisdom and direction as the kids’ initial adventure begins—an adventure filled with armor and danger and a very real enemy.

THE PRINCE WARRIORS AND THE UNSEEN INVASION Priscilla Shirer In this second book in The Prince Warriors trilogy, the Prince Warriors face new challenges on earth and in the unseen realm of Ahoratos. The enemy, angry about his last defeat, is targeting them with weapons and tactics they had never imagined, including the flaming Olethron. The kids must turn to Ruwach and the Source, who can give them more pieces of armor to help them stand strong against this deadly threat.

THE PRINCE WARRIORS AND THE SWORDS OF RHEMA Priscilla Shirer In this third book of The Prince Warriors trilogy, the Prince Warriors finally receive their last piece of armor—the swords they were promised when they began their adventure in the unseen realm of Ahoratos. And none too soon, for they must face the ultimate enemy, one who is gathering his Forgers and creating unthinkable new evil to stop the Prince Warriors from winning any battle ever again.
