WEEK FIVE
Dads, Moms, Kids - use this page together to review or further explore what was learned at church, or if you weren't able to get to church today, then you can learn and live it out at home! After all, the Church is wherever you are! LET'S GO!
WARM UPS!
Here is a fun WARM UP exercise from Major Capamity. Warning - they may be done differently than you are used to!
How to do Sit Ups? Well, it clearly means you sit down and then you git back up. DO IT! Ten times, Soldiers!
WATCH IT! Listen to Sergeant Roy G. Bert
SHOW AND TELL:
Every soldier has his or her canteen to always stay refreshed. The Christian has the Holy Spirit to fill them and keep them empowered for success!
THE MAIN POINT OF OUR LESSON:
The HOLY SPIRIT is our Secret Weapon!
READ: Proverbs 20:27
The Bible says that the spirit of man is the “lamp or candle of the Lord.” What does that mean? That means God will enlighten us or guide us through our spirit. That is one of the ways that the Holy Spirit speaks to us. Did you notice this verse didn’t say, “The spirit of God is the candle of the Lord,” it says, “The spirit of a man is the candle of the Lord.”
God speaks to man through his spirit in our spirit. It's kind of like this. Imagine you had a candle and turned off the lights. The spirit of man is the candle of the Lord. When we listen to our spirit, we are listening to the Holy Spirit, who is God. Some Christians don’t follow their spirits. Imagine blowing out the candle - the room would be dark, right? These Christians are walking in darkness. They think they can figure everything out by themselves. You can see that if we aren’t following our spirits, then we are walking in darkness.
Your spirit has a voice. This is the Holy Spirit speaking to us! Your conscience is the voice of your spirit, which is how the Holy Spirit talks to us. Your conscience is a still, small voice.
Have you ever walked past your messy bedroom and heard a voice say, “Remember, Mom told you to clean your room?” That wasn’t your mom talking. It was a voice inside of you. The voice of your spirit. That is the Holy Spirit trying to be a light for you. What should you do? Always obey your conscience.
Have you ever been tempted to steal a candy bar at the grocery store, but you heard a voice say, “No”? You don’t have to pray about it. You know that it is wrong because your conscience spoke to you. Learn to quickly obey your conscience because the Holy Spirit, God, talks to you through your conscience. When you obey your conscience, you are obeying God!
Some of you ask your parents if you can do something you already know you shouldn’t do, but you are hoping that Mom and Dad will let you do it. You know they are going to say no before they even say it. Because your spirit tells you it is wrong. That is the Holy Spirit talking to you.
Stop depending on Mom and Dad to obey God for you. You have the Holy Spirit inside of you. You don’t have to wait until you grow up to get a conscience. Take time to get quiet, listen to your conscience and obey quickly. If you learn how to obey your conscience you will always be a success and you’ll become a powerful soldier in the Army of God!
