SuperVerse

  • Whiteboard or chalkboard, marker or chalk
  • Eraser

Write the SuperVerse on the board. Proverbs 3:5:

Trust in the LORD with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding.

Superbook Erase: Memorize the SuperVerse with a group activity.

Elijah trusted in God. At times, God’s ways must have been difficult to understand; yet, because Elijah obeyed, the widow experienced the power of God in her life. Let’s read what she said in 1 Kings 17:24:

Then the woman told Elijah, “Now I know for sure that you are a man of God, and that the LORD truly speaks through you.”

When we trust God instead of depending on our own understanding, God will lead us and others will see His power at work.

Let’s read the SuperVerse on the board two times together. Proverbs 3:5:

Trust in the LORD with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding.

After the class says it twice, have them turn their heads, look down at the floor, and/or close their eyes as you erase a word. Have children raise their hands to tell you what you erased. Write the word(s) back on the board as they answer. Continue until all words have been erased and rewritten. Then erase the entire verse and have the class say it from memory.
