AGE 9-12 TEACHER’S MANUAL

SUNDAY 16TH OF APRIL, 2023

LESSON THIRTY THREE (33)

TOPIC: INSPIRATIONAL GIFT 2: DIFFERENT TONGUES AND INTERPRETATION OF TONGUES
BIBLE TEXT: Acts 19:1-7
[1]And it came to pass, that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having passed through the upper coasts came to Ephesus: and finding certain disciples,
[2]He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost.
[3]And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye baptized? And they said, Unto John’s baptism.
[4]Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus.
[5]When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
[6]And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied.
[7]And all the men were about twelve.
MEMORY VERSE: 1 Corinthians 14:2; For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.
LESSON AIM: To let the children know that speaking in tongue is the gift of Holy spirit.
CENTRAL TRUTH: Anyone speaking in tongue, speaking to God.
INTRODUCTION: We have been looking at the subject of the Holy Spirit in the life of the believer and as we have pointed out, the Holy Spirit dwells in us, conforming us into the image of Jesus. Everyone who has received Jesus Christ as their Savior has the Holy Spirit indwelling him 1 Corinthians 6:19-20, thus speaking with the heavenly tongue. Now as we have moved through the first eight manifestations, we have come to the ninth one which is the interpretation of tongues. 1 Corinthians 12:10, this is a companion gift to the gift of speaking with tongues.

iii. The gift of speaking in tongues is the ability to speak in a language that was previously unknown to you. 1 Corinthians 14:39-40.

An interpretation of tongues can be a revelation, prophecy, word of instruction, or Knowledge. According to 1 Cor 14:6.
