Story
Say: What is today? (Mother’s
Day!) That’s right. Today is the day we honor or mothers for all
the wonderful things they do for us.
What are some of the great things are mom’s do for us? (Give the
children plenty of time to answer). Those
are all good answers! Today we are going
to read a story about a mother from the bible and a wonderful thing she did for
her baby son, Moses.
Read “Baby Moses” in any children's story bible.
Lesson
Say: What was Pharaoh afraid of
and why? (God’s People, the Hebrews; he thought they would try to become more
powerful than him) What did the Pharaoh
do? (Make the Hebrews very hard and demanded that all the Hebrew baby boys be
drowned) What did Moses’ mother do
(protected him by making a floating basket and hiding him in it) what happened to
baby Moses? (He was protected and grew up in Pharaoh’s palace)
Moses’ mother was pretty amazing wasn’t she? Our mothers are a lot like her. Just like Moses mother protected him and took
care of him our mothers protect us and take care of us. We should be thankful for our mothers and we
should honor and obey them.
Big Idea
God gave us mothers to take care of us. We should be thankful for our mothers and we
should honor and obey them.
Memory Verse
Honor your mother and father. –
Ephesians 6:2
Prayer
Say a short prayer thanking God are mothers and asking for
help to obey are parents.
