Dear Parents,
This week, we have the opportunity to explore the teachings of “Moses’ Farewell” (Deuteronomy 31-34).
At 120 years old, Moses told the Israelites he would not enter the Promised Land, but God would go before them. He encouraged them to be strong and trust in God as Joshua became their new leader. Moses wrote down God’s laws, blessed the people, and saw the land from Mount Nebo before he died. This story reminds us that while Moses could not lead the people into the land, Jesus leads us into eternal life with Him.
This message will inspire your child to grow in the love and light of Jesus. Reinforce the lesson at home by discussing the following points with your child:
- God Goes Before Us: Moses told the Israelites not to fear because God was with them. How does knowing God is with us help us?
- Obeying God’s Word: Moses wrote down God’s laws to guide the people. Why is it important to listen to and follow God’s Word?
- Jesus, Our Perfect Leader: Joshua led Israel into the Promised Land, but Jesus leads us to eternal life. How can we follow Jesus today?
You might consider praying with your child, thanking God for His guidance and asking Him to help you trust and follow Jesus every day.
Grace and blessings in Christ.
