HOPE CITY

WELCOME TO M.A.P

Hope City Kids @ HOME M.A.p.

Kids Church is powerful, but it becomes significantly more life changing when it is reiterated at home. My desire is that your family would grow closer to Jesus, and encounter Him in powerful ways as you do these each week!

We are in a series right now on God's Supernatural Kingdom.

When your child(ren) have completed all three of the components, scroll down and send in the form online. When they have done 10 weeks they will get to go into the treasure chest and choose a prize!

Each M.A.P. will be kept on for 4 weeks so try to get them all done before it gets taken off!

September 29th

M. -Memorize: “The enemy comes to steal, kill and destroy, but I have come that you may have life, and life to the full!” John 10:10
A. -Action: This week we are focusing on the gift, discerning spirits (1 Cor.12:10). We are looking at how Nehemiah had to be very wise and discerning and rely on the Lord as they were rebuilding the wall so that they didn’t get deceived and destroyed. Read Nehemiah 6:1-13, pick out the ways that Sanballet and Tobias tried to deceive them, and how Nehemiah discerned that they were not from God, even though in some circumstances it looked like a good thing. Discuss how they can do the same thing daily, talk about examples. To end, go in the kitchen and play a little game. One person is the blind tester (blind folded or eyes closed), the other people get to pick something to give that person. It can be good or bad. They have to try to guess what it is. Talk about how without even being aware of it their taste buds are discerning for them whether it is good or not. Their taste buds are figuring out all sorts of things to identify what it is. That is the same thing that we need to be doing all day, discerning, is this thing I’m watching of God, is this thought from God or the enemy etc.

P. -Prayer: Pray about a specific situation that you need God’s discernment and pray for open eyes and ears to be attentive to God’s wisdom and discernment throughout the day, no matter where they are or who they are with.
september 22nd

M. -Memorize: “If you need wisdom, ask our generous God, and he will give it to you.” James 1:5
A. -Action: In God’s Supernatural Kingdom, are supernatural gifts! We have been going through them, about half way through, this week we are focusing on the Gift of Wisdom! Just like if you family was going on a trip, you would wait until they needed the ticket to give it to them, same is true with God- He gives us what we need right in the moment! There might be things going in your guys’ lives that you need divine wisdom- spend time thinking through what some of those things might be and seek God in knowing His wisdom.

P. -Prayer: Spend time praying about those things. We can look to all kinds of things to look for insight and wisdom but so important to look to God every day, but also for divine gifts of wisdom.
SEPTEMBER 15th

M. Memorize: “Don’t be afraid,” the prophet answered. “Those who are with us are more than those who are with them.” 2 Kings 6:16
A. -Action: This week’s action is to read the story of Elisha and the blind army in 2 Kings 6:8-22. Discuss the story together. What does this teach us about God and what we have in Him? Ask God to highlight something to you from the story and draw and write what it is.

P. -Prayer: Pray into what God reveals to you, asking Him to speak to you each day and listening for us His whispers.
September 8th

M. -Memorize: ^“For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love and a sound mind.” 1 Timothy 1:7
A. -Action: Read 1 Samuel 17 of the story of David & Goliath. Talk about how David had the courage to do what he did, where did he get his strength from, and did he just all of a sudden become brave, or what was his “training” to get to that point. Connect it to their lives, how can they be like David? If you have rocks near by outside, go and find 5 smooth ones, you can paint them or color them with markers. Have them as a reminder of God’s power through a faithful and trusting heart. It took David stepping out in faith to see the greatness of God’s power.

P. -Prayer: Discuss and pray about ways they can step out and “act out” their faith this week.
