Armed with Righteousness and with the Power of God

Come Follow Me Lessons & Activities for Kids

Week 5 | January 20 - January 26

The main lesson for this week is going to be so much fun! You get to talk about superheros and play a superhero board game! First, start the lesson discussing what your family has learned from the assigned reading, 1 Nephi 11-15. Consider reading the opening paragraph in the manual on page 14. Discuss how God has a great work for us to do and in order to help with His Great work we need to be armed with righteousness. How can we do this? What does that look like in our daily lives? You can use the wiggle songs listed on the summary sheet to break up the discussion.

Then play the Superhero Board Game. As you play it will reinforce things we can be doing to have the power of God with us. Let each child wear a superhero badge as you play (have these prepared before hand).

After you play the game complete the superhero picture frames and display them all week to remind your family of what you have learned.

There are some really great bonus activities this week. 

Complete the love coloring page and then sit in a circle as a family. Let each member of the family say one thing they love about all the other members of your family.

This week in your materials is a scripture marking guide. See your summary sheet for a fun activity and discussion to do with your family before the scripture marking guide.

Read 1 Nephi 11:16-33 and talk about how God loved us so much that He sent his Son. Use the song chart provided to sing or learn the song “He Sent His Son.”

“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.

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?
