SuperVerse
- Bibles or the Superbook Bible App
- Chalkboard and chalk, or whiteboard and marker.
Write the SuperVerse and the SuperTruth on the board.
Optional for Grades 4–6: Have the children look up Genesis 27:30–38. Choose volunteers to each read one verse aloud.
Our SuperVerse is Genesis 27:38:
Esau pleaded, “But do you have only one blessing? Oh my father, bless me, too!” Then Esau broke down and wept.
Esau did not appreciate his birthright as the firstborn son. Who remembers what he did with it? Sold it to Jacob for a bowl of stew.
Later, Jacob deceived Isaac and received the blessing that Esau should have gotten. Esau pleaded with his father for a blessing, but Isaac told him he couldn’t change what he had done. No wonder Esau wept!
Boys, I want you to say our SuperVerse as dramatically as you can. Boys say the verse.
Now let’s see if the girls can say it even more dramatically! Girls say the verse.
We do not have to weep as Esau did. As long as we choose to stay connected to Jesus and make Him Lord of our lives, all the blessings and promises of God are ours, and they can never be taken away! Let’s say our SuperTruth. “I am a child of God, and I share in all of His blessings.”
Remember, all God’s promises are YES to everyone who believes in Him!
Note: If younger children are not able to memorize the entire SuperVerse, simply have them repeat it several times and be sure they understand its meaning.
