Spend a few minutes with your kids thinking about how God is faithful and just. This is a big and sometimes heavy topic, but we simplify it in an easy-to-understand way. Just like David believed that God would take care of the evil in his life, we can believe that God has a plan to fully and finally take care of all evil.
*The first few verses can be intense for young kids. We suggest listening to this episode first before sharing it with your kids.
Verses:
They who seek to destroy my life will be destroyed;
They will go down to the depths of the earth.
They will be given over to the sword and become food for jackals.
But the King will rejoice in God;
All who swear by God’s name will praise him,
While the mouths of liars will be silenced.
Psalm 63:9-11 (NIV)
Define:
* Faithful - He does what He says He will do,
He always keeps His promises
* Just - does what is right and does not tolerate evil
Ask Your Kids:
* What do you think it will be like when Jesus comes back?
* What is something you can do to help you remember that Jesus is coming back and will make everything right?
Engage Your Kids:
* Read Revelation 19:1-21 about Jesus riding down from Heaven on His white horse
* Act out this scene with your kids taking turns pretending to ride down from Heaven on a white horse
