SuperVerse

Superbook Correction: Memorize the SuperVerse with a group activity.

There are things about ourselves that we wouldn’t want other people to know, but Jesus knows us inside out! Psalm 139:1 says:

Nothing is hidden from God; our failures and mistakes, as well as our strengths and weaknesses. He understands them all and continues to love us! He endured every temptation, trick and trap that the devil put before Him and never sinned!

Let’s read the SuperVerse, Hebrews 4:15, on the board together:

Have the children turn their heads, then lower and/or cover their eyes so they cannot see the board. Using the list below, change one word of the SuperVerse on the board at a time to alter the meaning of the verse, then have the children look at the board and raise their hands to tell you what word should be fixed. Write in the correct word and then repeat the process. Vary the order of the list to make it more challenging. As they become familiar with the verse, erase more than one word at a time.

• Change “Jesus ” to “Nobody”
• Change “understands ” to “mocks"
• Change “weakness” to “strength”
• Change “ours” to “His”
• Change “was” to “wasn’t”
• Change “tempted” to “tutored”
• Change “every way” to “some ways”
• Remove “not” and leave blank
• Change “Hebrews” to “Matthews”
• Change “4:15” to “8:65” 

Let’s close our eyes and see if we can say Hebrews 4:15 together from memory.

If children cannot memorize the SuperVerse, be sure they understand its meaning. Remind them to keep working on the verse at home.
