Today’s Bible memory verse is 1 Chronicles 29:14b. Say the memory verse slowly.
“Everything we have has come from You, and we give You only what You first gave us!”
1 Chronicles 29:14b
We will learn the first part of the verse today.
Stand facing the children and help them to repeat phrases and imitate the motions.
Everything we have … hold both arms wide open and look around.
Has come from You… hold both arms up and point to the sky.
Repeat slowly a few more times.
The poor widow knew she could only give what God gave to her first.
Look around the room. Children respond.
Everything you see was given to us by God. God created people and breathed life into them.
Look outside (if the room has windows). God gave us every tree, every animal, the sun, the moon, stars and sky. He gave us the rain, the clouds and the wind. God first gave to us and he keeps giving us everything we need and even more so we can give generously to others. Let’s say our verse again!
Note: Preschool children may not be able to memorize the entire verse. They may simply repeat it with you. Be sure all children understand its meaning.
