Lesson: Worshiping God
Bible Truth: After giving the Ten Commandments, God told the Israelites to build a tabernacle where he would dwell among them and they would worship him. (Exodus 7, 20, 24, 25)
Lesson Focus: To understand that worship is very important to God; to learn that we must worship God only in the way he commands in his Word; to ask God for a willing heart to worship him as he deserves.
Memory Verse: Exodus 24:3 NIV
Discussion Starters:
In what ways do we worship God at church on Sunday? And outside of church?
What aspects of worship bring you joy? Where do you need God’s help to give you a more willing heart to worship him?
