Come Follow Me Lessons & Activities for Kids Lesson 9 | February 23-March 1 | Genesis 18–23

Abraham and Sarah had a lot to worry about. From infertility and famine to war and the safety of their family, it could have been easy to forget their covenants while focusing on their daily concerns. Yet they showed faith by putting the Lord first each day. As a result of keeping their covenants, they knew the Lord would help them throughout their lives. As Abraham told his son, Isaac, “God will provide” (Genesis 22:8). We should follow Abraham’s example of faith and always put the Lord first.

THIS WEEK’S COME FOLLOW ME HIGHLIGHTS​

Elementary Bundle Lessons & Activities​

We have some great activities and resources to help assist you in celebrating a Christ-centered Easter this year! We recommend picking the activities that work best for you and your family. We think just a few activities will allow you to celebrate Easter, but also allow you time to focus on our Savior and what He has done for us. Our hope is that you will find something meaningful for your family to help celebrate this special holiday!

Count Your Blessings

Scripture Study

Read Genesis 18:10-14 and ask your family the question from verse 14, “Is anything too hard for the Lord?” Then, read Genesis 21:2-3 and discuss how the promise the Lord made to Sarah and Abraham was fulfilled. Testify that Heavenly Father always keeps His promises. Sometimes His blessings don’t come when we want them to, but they always come. Count your blessings as a family and use the Blessing Counter Sign Activity to keep track of how many you notice.

Flee From Wickedness

Surprise Activity

Read the story of Sodom and Gomorrah (Gen. 19:12-29) together. Be sure to read Genesis 19:26 about when Lot’s wife is disobedient and becomes a pillar of salt. Then, play Hot Potato (Flee Wickedness Style). Talk about how we should “flee” bad situations as quickly as we can, just as we try to pass the potato as quickly as we can.

Coloring Covenants

Coloring Page

As a family, complete the Genesis 18:14 Coloring Page together. Read the scripture as a family and talk about how the Lord knows everything and can help you through everything you encounter in life.

Toddler Bundle Lessons & Activities​

For kids ages 1-4 at home and in nursery or sunbeams.

Stars in the Sky

Go & Do Activity

With your child, sing “Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star.” Ask your child how many stars they think there are in the night sky. Explain that there are more than anyone can count. Teach that Heavenly Father told Abraham that he would be blessed with so many descendants that they would be like the stars in the sky. Read Genesis 22:17-18. All of Abraham’s descendants would be blessed because Abraham obeyed the Lord. Explain that when we are members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, we receive these blessings, too. With your child, place glow-in-the-dark stickers in their room. Teach that when they see the stickers glowing at night they can remember the blessings that Heavenly Father has given them.

The toddler bundle includes a lesson plan and three activities every week. Grab the toddler bundle in our subscription.

“The Redeemer Shall Come to Zion”

Isaiah taught more about the principle of fasting than any other Old Testament prophet, teaching that giving something up for the Lord is more than just going without food and drink. Its purpose is much holier: “Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free” (Isaiah 58:6). Fasting frees us from constraints on our spirit, allowing us to be more sensitive to the promptings of the Holy Ghost.

“He Hath Borne Our Griefs, and Carried Our Sorrows”

Some of Isaiah’s greatest teachings were his reminders that the Lord loves His people. Though they stumbled over their own mistakes constantly, the Lord never stopped repeating His love for them and His willingness to forgive them, for He is “thy God that pleadeth the cause of his people” (Isaiah 51:22).

“Comfort Ye My People”

There are stages in life that feel like they go on forever, especially in parenthood: sleepless nights helping kids stay in their own beds, potty training for weeks unending, and running to and from after-school activities. While the privilege of being a parent is a blessing, it can be exhausting just trying to keep up every day. Isaiah taught that when we feel like we have nothing left in us, we should rely on the Lord to give us strength (Isiah 40:29). After all, are we not caring for His children?
