MARK: JESUS IS GOD'S BELOVED
HOOK
GAME: PREPARE THE WAY FOR
THE KING
Get
kids in 2 or 3 equal teams, lined up at the back of the hall. Choose one of
each team as the king, who will stand last in line. Maybe get some crowns for
the king?
Each
team gets some paper/card/newspapers; should be 1 pc for each person
Aim:
to lay down steps (paper) one by one and create a path to the other end of the
hall so that the king can cross.
First person puts down one piece and steps on it.
Second person passes him another piece; then third etc. Everybody has to make
it across the hall, so they have to keep passing paper and moving forward in
the fastest way possible.
Then
once all the steps are laid out, and everyone has reached the other side of the
hall, the king can cross over.
First
team with the king crossing wins.
STORY: JOHN THE BAPTIST & JESUS (Mark 1:1-11)
INTRODUCTION
Today we will start a new series on the book of
Mark.
Mark:
·
In the New Testament
·
One of the 4 books that tell the life of Jesus (known as Gospels) Can you name the other 3?
·
We will look at the life and ministry of Jesus through
Mark’s eyes.
STORY
Meet John
In today's story, we meet Jesus’ cousin. His name is
John.
One day, when John was about 31, God called him for
a special job. God told John to tell the people something important:
·
You need to be rescued
·
I have good news — the Rescuer is coming
·
Make your hearts ready for Him!
So John went to the wilderness and started telling
people about what God said.
John was quite an unusual man.
·
He lived in the desert
·
He wore clothes made of camel’s hair
·
He had a leather belt around his waist
·
He ate locusts and wild honey
People from Jerusalem and the countryside came to
hear him.
They
turned to God, and John baptized them in the Jordan River — a sign for them to
show that they wanted to follow God and begin a new life.
Someone greater?
The
people began to wonder if John was the Savior whom God had promised.
But
John told them “NO”. I am just preparing the way for the Saviour
Remember our game? The rest
of the team had to prepare the way for the last person to cross. John’s role
was to prepare people’s hearts for Jesus.
“After me comes the one more
powerful than I, the straps of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and
untie. I baptize you with water, but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.”
Someone
more powerful than John was coming.
In fact, John said he was not even worthy to untie
his sandals — the job of the second lowest servant in a house. (The lowest
ranked servant’s job was to wash people’s feet. Did you know that Jesus came to
wash our feet?)
John
baptizes people with water; but the coming Saviour will baptise with Holy
Spirit and fire.
Along came Jesus
One
day, guess who wanted to come and be baptised by John too? Jesus
At
first, John didn’t want to baptise Jesus because he didn’t think he was worthy;
Jesus should be the one baptising John! Besides Jesus had no sin to repent of!
But
Jesus wanted to be baptised — it was a prophetic act to show that one day, He
will take away ALL their sins and give them His righteousness in return.
As
Jesus was coming out of the water, suddenly … Heaven opened, the Holy Spirit
came down like a dove, and a voice came from heaven said, “You are my Son, whom
I love; with you I am well pleased.”
LESSON
Jesus is God's Beloved
Even before Jesus began his ministry or did anything
to serve God, God already acknowledge 3 things:
·
You are my Son
·
I love You
·
I am pleased with You
We are His
Beloved too
Because of what Jesus did for us — take away ALL our
sins and give us His righteousness in return — we can have a relationship with
God as our Father.
And we don’t
have to earn His love or favour. He’s saying to all of you now:
·
You are my son/daughter
·
I love you
·
I am pleased with you
Now say it for yourself:
·
I am God’s son/daughter
·
He loves me
·
He is pleased with me
Let’s thank Jesus for what He has done for us!
MEMORY VERSE:
Mark 1:11 “You are my Son, whom I
love; with you I am well pleased.”
