Come Follow Me Lessons & Activities for Kids Lesson 30 | July 20-26 | 2 Chronicles 14–20; 26; 30

After many years of living separately, King Hezekiah of Judah invited the people of the Kingdom of Israel to come down to Jerusalem and worship the Lord during the Passover. Many who came to the temple did not remember all the cleansing ordinances and were not fully prepared to participate. Rather than scorn them, Hezekiah made sure that no one who attended Passover was left out: “The good Lord pardon every one that prepareth his heart to seek God” (2 Chronicles 30:18-19). Because of this, “there was great joy” during the Passover in Jerusalem as the people grew closer together in worship (2 Chronicles 30:26).

When we invite others to play with our children, we should never exclude anyone based on their faith (or lack of faith). We can grow closer as God’s family as we make our homes a place of peace to all and our hearts willing to make new friendships. We and those we welcome will have “great joy” just as the Israelites did.

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!

Joy and Cheer

Hands-On Activity

The Lord wants all His children to be happy! Read 2 Chronicles 30:26 aloud and emphasize the word “joy.” Ask your children what brings them joy, and share some joyful family experiences. Make the Cheerful Necklaces as a reminder to find joy and cheer in all you do this week!

Rely on the Lord

Surprise Activity

Gather your family for a fun FHE game night! Read about King Asa and his reign in 2 Chronicles 15–16. As you read, look for ways he turned to others for help instead of relying on the Lord. Discuss how we should turn to the Lord in our trials. After reading, play Headbandz together using scriptures to help you guess people, objects, and modern-day prophetic phrases about following the Lord.

Song of the Heart

Coloring Page

In the Old Testament, we read about singing and praising God through music. Read 2 Chronicles 20:21 as a family and share your favorite hymn. Emma Smith was called to compile the first hymnal for the Church, and many of those songs are still sung today! Talk about how music can strengthen your testimony as you color the Song of the Heart coloring page.

Jump for Joy

Family Activity

The Lord wants all His children to feel happiness and experience joy! Joy not only makes us happy, but it also brings happiness to Heavenly Father and Jesus. Many prophets in the Old Testament were righteous men who followed the Lord and made Him happy. Read 2 Chronicles 30:26 and emphasize the word “joy.” Have the children jump or clap every time they hear the word as you read. Share things that bring you joy and show pictures. Some examples might include family, nature, and the temple.

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?
