Say: Today we are going to read a story about
two real live spies! Their names were Caleb and Joshua. A spy is a person who
secretly watches something to get information.
Let’s see what happens!
Read “The Twelve Spies" in any children's story Bible, or read Numbers 14
Lesson
Say: What kind of report did the ten
men give? (Awesome land, good food. The
people are too big and strong. We can’t
go there) Why did Caleb and Joshua give a different report? (The trusted God
and knew he would be with them) What did the reports of the other spies make
all the people think? (The people were afraid and did not believe that God
would help them conquer the Canaanites).
Caleb and Joshua didn’t listen to
the bad reports. Instead, they put their confidence in what God said. Caleb and Joshua were confident in God’s
promise, even when the others were not. Caleb and Joshua believed in God’s
promise to them. God keeps his promises to us, too! We can believe in God.
Big
Idea
God keeps his promises to us! We can believe in God.

Verse
