PreK-5th Grade Lesson: How Believers Live--Power to Help Others! (8/09)

How Believers Live

¯Power to Help Others

 

Bible Reading: Acts 3:1-22; 9:36-43

 

Main Idea: The Holy Spirit helps us help others.

 

MEMORY VERSE:

“But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all the things and will remind you of everything I have said to you.” 

-   John 14:26  

 

The Holy Spirit is an advocate. An advocate is someone who provides support; help. The Holy Spirit supports us and helps us live the way God desires us to. Remember the Fruit of the Spirit. He gives us love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. All these qualities are useful when wanting to help those in need. 

 

Read Acts 3:1-22

This Bible reading is about Peter and John going to the temple to pray and while entering, they come across a lame beggar; he couldn’t walk. This is a great story about the Holy Spirit giving Peter the power to help this man who couldn’t walk. He also told the people in the courtyard to do something very important. What was it? 

 

Read Acts 9:36-43

This is another story about how Peter, with the help of the Holy Spirit brought Lydda; also called Dorcas back to life. In the end, ALL glory was given back to God. This is important! 

 

Application: 

In what ways can you serve others around you? It can be your family, a friend, someone at the grocery store, etc. Do it with joy and with love.
