Verse to GO!

Romans 2:11 (CEV)

Today’s Bible memory verse is Romans 2:11.  Say the memory verse slowly.

“God doesn't have any favorites!”

Let’s learn the verse together using some motions.

Stand facing the children and lead them in to repeat phrases and imitate the motions.

God … point to Heaven.

Doesn’t have any favorites… Shake head back and forth no, stretch arms wide to each side (to welcome everyone).

Repeat slowly a few more times.

What is your favorite game to play? Children respond.

What is your favorite animal? Children respond.

What is your favorite song? Children respond.

Yes, we all have favorite things, and we may even have favorite friends or family that we like spending time with just a little more than others.

But, God doesn’t have favorites. He loves everyone in the world the same way and loves to spend time with all of us, like when we pray or sing praises to Him. He sent His Son Jesus to die for everyone so our sins could be forgiven. That’s good news, isn’t it?

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.
