BIBLE TEXT: Daniel 3:12-26

[12]There are certain Jews whom thou hast set over the affairs of the province of Babylon, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego; these men, O king, have not regarded thee: they serve not thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.

[13]Then Nebuchadnezzar in his rage and fury commanded to bring Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. Then they brought these men before the king.

[14]Nebuchadnezzar spake and said unto them, Is it true, O Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, do not ye serve my gods, nor worship the golden image which I have set up?

[15]Now if ye be ready that at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and dulcimer, and all kinds of musick, ye fall down and worship the image which I have made; well: but if ye worship not, ye shall be cast the same hour into the midst of a burning fiery furnace; and who is that God that shall deliver you out of my hands?

[16]Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, answered and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we are not careful to answer thee in this matter.

[17]If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king.

[18]But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.

[19]Then was Nebuchadnezzar full of fury, and the form of his visage was changed against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego: therefore he spake, and commanded that they should heat the furnace one seven times more than it was wont to be heated.

[20]And he commanded the most mighty men that were in his army to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, and to cast them into the burning fiery furnace.

[21]Then these men were bound in their coats, their hosen, and their hats, and their other garments, and were cast into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.

[22]Therefore because the king’s commandment was urgent, and the furnace exceeding hot, the flame of the fire slew those men that took up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego.

[23]And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, fell down bound into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.

[24]Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astonied, and rose up in haste, and spake, and said unto his counsellors, Did not we cast three men bound into the midst of the fire? They answered and said unto the king, True, O king.

[25]He answered and said, Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God.

[26]Then Nebuchadnezzar came near to the mouth of the burning fiery furnace, and spake, and said, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, ye servants of the most high God, come forth, and come hither. Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, came forth of the midst of the fire.

MEMORY VERSE: Mathew 5:16 “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your father which is in heaven.”

RCCG JUNIOR ZEAL FOR  AGE 9-12 TEACHER’S MANUAL SUNDAY 15TH OF MAY, 2022 LESSON 37

To let the children know that they are useful tools for God

CENTRAL TRUTH: As a child of God you are created to show God’s glory everywhere you go.

INTRODUCTION: Children are the heritage of the Lord, this is because God loves them so much and Jesus Christ also made reference to them in His sermon that the Kingdom of God belong to those who humble themselves as the little children. This age is also the time to discover God’s purpose and plans and begin to work towards achieving this purpose. God has deposited so many gifts into you which must be put to proper use. The book of Isaiah 60:1 “Arise, shine: for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee.” As a child of God, you have the glory of God upon you so arise and shine here on earth.

RCCG JUNIOR ZEAL FOR  AGE 9-12 TEACHER’S MANUAL SUNDAY 15TH OF MAY 2022 LESSON 37

We shall be looking at the blessings of God for children specially and how to use them maximally for God’s purpose.

A. God’s Blessings on Children

1. You are God’s heritage. Psalm 127:3-5

2) Your prayers are answered quickly. Matthew 18:10

3) God prophesied about children. Acts 2:17

4) You are the pride of your parent and your heavenly father. Proverbs 17:6

5) He has a purpose for you. Jeremiah 1:5

6. You are fearfully and wonderfully made. Psalm 139:13-14

7. You have very sharp brains. Psalm 119:99

B) HOW TO USE GOD’S BLESSING MAXIMALLY

1. Obey your parents in the Lord. Ephesians 6:1-3

2. Study God’s word. 2 Timothy 2: 15

3. Pray for your parents and everyone around you

4. Do what is right no matter what. 1 Peter 2:18-20

5. Preach the word of God to sinners. 2 Timothy 4:2

6. Honour God with your body by not defiling it with any immoral things 1 Corinthians 6:18-20

7. Use your gifts and talents to glorify God 1 Timothy 4:14

8. Always be ready to help other children – Galatians 6:10

ACTIVITIES: Mention ways by which you can help people around you.

CONCLUSION: As children of God, we should live a life that pleased God and God alone. We must make sure we do not go against God’s will even if we are commanded by man to do so, consider the three Hebrew men.

INVITATION: You might not be experiencing these blessing that God has provided for children yet. Revelation 3:20 Jesus is your creator but you must also confess Him as your Lord and Saviour as well. Do so today and you will begin to see positive change.

My Prayer Point for the Lesson: Father please, let my life Glorify you here on earth.
