Make copies of the twelve sheets of match cards—double sided on cardstock if possible.
Cut apart the 24 individual cards and place in two separate piles—obedience and blessing.
Place the cards face down in two columns with a path between where children can walk.
Player 1 walks down the path, turns over an Obedience Card, and reads it aloud.
The child then selects a Blessing Card and reads the scripture reference aloud.
The class looks up the verse in the Bible; one child reads it aloud.
The leader writes the reference and an abbreviated version of the verse on the board.
The children discuss whether the two cards are a match. If so, remove the cards and briefly discuss the act of obedience and the blessing tied to it.
If the cards don’t match, they are placed back on the floor, this time FRONT SIDE UP.
Player 2 takes a turn, repeating the process.
Players can reference the board as cards are turned over to help find matches.
Play until all cards are matched.
Conclusion: These are just a few of the blessings tied to obedience in the Bible. Like with Abraham, when we seek to obey God and follow His path, our lives will be richly blessed!
