“Be Strong and of a Good Courage”

Come Follow Me Lessons & Activities for Kids Lesson 21 | May 18-24 | Joshua 1–8; 23–24

Most of the Israelites heading into the Promised Land had been born in the wilderness. Few remembered the treacherous journey across the bottom of the Red Sea, yet all would experience the miracle again as they crossed the Jordan River on dry ground. This time, however, it was not a crowd of fleeing former slaves who worshipped golden calves. It was the camp of Israel, a covenant-making people who had proven their faithfulness to the Lord.

Our children are part of the rising generation who will carry the gospel to the world. It is our duty as parents to show them the path of righteousness, break the chains of any “wicked traditions” of our fathers, and empower them to be led by the Spirit. They will become witnesses to many miracles in their own lives as they show their faith in Jesus Christ.

Come Follow Me FHE lessons include everything you need to make gospel study fun for your family! Empower your children to love the gospel with our scripture-focused lesson activities. Start your free trial now!

Follow Jesus is With Us

Give your child a small picture of Jesus to keep in their pocket, or make a necklace by taping a piece of yarn to the picture. Throughout the day, ask your child if they still have Jesus with them. Encourage them to show friends and family that they carry a picture of Jesus wherever they go. Read Joshua 1:9 and explain that Jesus is always with us, “whithersoever” we go. Share a personal experience of a time you felt Jesus’ presence. Testify that Jesus loves us and will always be with us. We can feel His love each day.
