September 27, 2020 - Lesson 4: The Kingdom Divided

Big Idea: Sin tears God’s people apart, so we should confess and turn away from our sinful desires.

Bible Basis: 1 Kings 11:1–12:24

Key Verse: “Why do you fight and argue among yourselves? Isn’t it because of your sinful desires? They fight within you.” James 4:1 (NIrV)

---

OPENING PRAYER

God, thank you for giving us this opportunity to come together around your Word. As we pause from the struggles of this sinful world, help us focus on you, trust in your promises, and find peace in your incredible love for us.

LEARNING ACTIVITIES

+ Imagination Time Machine Connect Activity

• Say: Today we’re going to take one last trip in the ITM. What does that stand for? (Allow kids to answer.) That’s right—the Imagination Time Machine. We’re going to hear a story about a group of people that were torn in two. But first, I have a question for you. We’re going to answer it in a really fun way!
• Directions: Tell the kids that they’ll get to choose who answers the question by tossing an imaginary object to each other. It could be something really small like a flopping fish, something really big like a car, something hot like a fireball, etc. After announcing the object of their choosing, a kid will pretend to throw the object to another kid, adjusting how they throw or catch based on the object. (For example, if it’s a refrigerator, the thrower might grunt when tossing it and the catcher might pretend to get crushed.) After answering the question, the catcher can toss a different object to another kid. Continue until everyone has had a chance to answer the question below:
• Say: When is the last time you had an argument or fight with a friend? What caused it?

+ Circle Sit (Application Activity)

• Say: In today’s story, we saw how Solomon and Rehoboam’s sin caused the nation of Israel to be torn in two. The same can happen to us. Our sin has the power to destroy community and tear friendships apart. We’re going to play a game right now that will help us picture that and think about ways we can stop that from happening.
• Directions: Tell the kids in your group to stand shoulder to shoulder in a tight circle facing inward. Next, ask the kids to make a quarter turn to the left so that everyone is standing front to back. Have the kids move in even closer to one another so that they are almost touching. On the count of 3, have the kids all sit down at once. If done right, the kids should all be sitting on each other’s knees and the whole circle will support itself. If the circle falls, tell the kids to get up and keep trying until they’re successful. Once successful, allow the kids to remain seated for about 10 seconds before gently pulling one of the kids out of the circle so that the whole thing collapses. If time permits and the kids are interested, you can repeat the game multiple times. When finished, tell the kids to take a seat in a circle on the floor and ask the following questions.
• Question: How does that game remind you of what sin can do to a community or a circle of friends?
• Say: In the game, the circle was kind of like a community or a circle of friends. Everyone supported and helped each other. But I was kind of like sin. When sin comes into a community, it can tear friends apart and knock the whole community down.
• Question:: Has that kind of thing ever happened to a group of your friends? In other words, has someone ever done something that caused your group of friends to break apart? What happened?
• Question:: What can you do to stop sin from destroying your community or group of friends?
• Question:: How can this small group of friends right here help each other follow Jesus more?
• Additional Challenge:: If there is extra time, challenge the kids to perform the “circle sit” one more time. This time tell the kids to make the circle walk by all taking a small step forward at the same time with the same foot.

+ Over Under (Bible Memorization Activity)

• Directions:: Place the Bible verse sign in the middle of the group and read it carefully with your kids several times so they can begin to memorize it. Today’s Bible verse says: “Why do you fight and argue among yourselves? Isn’t it because of your sinful desires? They fight within you.” James 4:1. Next, split your group into 2 equal sized teams. (If the teams are uneven, consider having the first kid from the smaller team go twice.) Have the kids line up front to back with their team. Give the first kid in each line a beach ball. When you say, “ready, set, go,” prompt the first kid in each line to quickly recite the verse. Upon completion, they’ll pass the beach ball over their head to the kid behind them. That kid will then pass the beach ball through their legs to the kid behind them. Alternate this “over-under” method until the last kid in line has the beach ball. That kid will then race to the front of the line, recite the verse, and begin passing the ball all over again. The first team to have every kid recite the verse and pass the ball through the line is the winner. If time permits, play multiple rounds.
• Question: Have you ever apologized and asked one of your friends for forgiveness? What happened? Are you still friends?

+ Hang Ten Prayers (Prayer Activity)

• Directions: Begin by teaching the kids in your group how to give the “Hang Ten” hand sign made popular by the surf culture. Extend your thumb and pinky fingers outward while curling your middle three fingers inward. Turn your hand so that your thumb is pointing toward yourself while your pinky is pointed toward others. Tell your kids they can use this as a reminder to pray not only for themselves, but for others too. Go around the circle having each kid practice the “Hang Ten” sign. While they’re practicing the sign, have them share one prayer request for themselves and one prayer request for someone else. When all of the kids have had a chance to share their requests, open the group in prayer. Allow anyone who would like to pray an opportunity to do so. When it seems like everyone who wants a turn has prayed, close the group in a final prayer. Encourage your kids to remember everyone’s prayer request and to be praying for them throughout the week .

LEARNING ACTIVITIES

+ Imagination Time Machine Connect Activity

• Say: Who remembers what the ITM is? (Take answers.) That’s right—it’s the “Imagination Time Machine.” Once again, we’re going to imagine what it would be like to be an Israelite in the Promised Land, but this week we’re going to be a part of a huge construction project. First, though, I have a question for you. We’re going to answer it in a really fun way!
• Directions: Tell the kids that they’ll get to choose who answers the question by tossing an imaginary object to each other. It could be something really small like a flopping fish, something really big like a car, something hot like a fireball, etc. After announcing the object of their choosing, a kid will pretend to throw the object to another kid, adjusting how they throw or catch based on the object. (For example, if it’s a refrigerator, the thrower might grunt when tossing it and the catcher might pretend to get crushed.) After answering the question, the catcher can toss a different object to another kid. Continue until everyone has had a chance to answer the question below:
• Say: What is the coolest thing you’ve ever built?

+ The Power of We (Application Activity)

• Set up: Cut out two 24” x 24” cardboard squares for each group.
• Say: In today’s story, God’s Spirit filled Solomon’s temple. We don’t have the temple anymore, but that’s okay—God’s Spirit now lives inside the community of believers known as the Church. We’re going to do an activity right now that will help us see how God’s Spirit gives us power when we’re a part of His Church.
• Directions: Give each kid in your small group a Dixie® cup and a marker. Tell them to write their name on their cup. When finished, collect the markers. Next, ask the kids what they think would happen if they never came to church. After taking answers, place one cup upside down in the middle of the group.
• Say: When you rarely or never come to church, you become kind of like this lone cup. (Step on the cup and crush it.) It’s easy for the devil to crush you with doubts and fears. But when you spend time with God’s family, His Spirit gives you strength.
• Directions: Place one 24” x 24” cardboard square on the floor in the middle of the group. Instruct the kids to place their cups upside down on the square. (If you have fewer than 12 kids in the group, add additional cups to the square.) Next, place a second 24” x 24” cardboard square on top of the cups. Tell the kids that this is what it looks like to be a part of God’s Church. Let the kids take turns carefully stepping on top of the Dixie® cup platform. You may want to give them a hand for balance and support. If time allows afterwards, let the kids experiment with removing a cup at a time and seeing how many are needed to support their weight. When finished, ask the following questions.
• Question:: How is this like being a part of God’s Church? (Suggested answer: When we’re together with other believers, our faith is stronger and we can stand up to doubts and fears.)
• Question:: What can we do as a group to help each other love and follow Jesus?
• Pray:: When finished, ask the kids how the group can be praying for them. After sharing, have the kids hold hands or link arms. Open them in prayer, then allow them to pray aloud for one another.

+ Bible Emoji (Bible Memorization Activity)

• Set up:: Print 2 copies of the “Bible Emoji Pieces.” Each copy will have 4 different pieces to an emoji (mouth, eyes, tongue, etc.) Each piece will have one of the numbers 2–5 on it. Cut the pieces out.
• Directions: Place the “Bible Verse” sign in the middle of your group. Read the verse several times with your group so that they can begin to memorize it. Today’s Bible verse says: “And because you belong to him, you too are being built together. You are being made into a house where God lives through his Spirit.” Eph. 2:22. When ready, remove the Bible verse sign and divide your group into two teams. Choose a team to go first and have them recite the Bible verse together. If they fail to recite it, the turn moves to the other team. If they recite it successfully, allow that team to roll a die. If they roll a 1, give them the plate. If they roll a 2–5, give them the emoji piece with that number on it. If they roll a 6, they can choose the plate or any emoji piece they want. If they roll a number that they’ve already rolled, they receive no additional piece and the turn moves to the other team. Have each team take turns reciting the verse and rolling the die until one team has successfully collected all of the pieces and assembled their emoji.
• Question: How can we be built together as a group? In other words, what can we do to make this group even stronger?

+ Prayer Circle (Prayer Activity)

• Say: It’s really easy to remember to pray for ourselves, but sometimes we forget that God wants us to pray for others too. We’re going to spend some time right now and over the next week doing just that.
• Directions: Go around the circle and ask each kid to share one thing they would like prayer for over the coming week. Start the group by sharing something age-appropriate that you need prayer for. This is a great way to demonstrate vulnerability. After each kid shares, ask the rest of the group if there’s someone who would like to pray for that person at the end. When everyone is finished sharing, open the group in prayer and then allow the kids to take turns praying for one another. Encourage the kids to remember these prayer requests throughout the week and to pray for them continually.

LEARNING ACTIVITIES

+ Imagination Time Machine Connect Activity

• Say: Are you all ready for another week of “Imagination Time Machine”? Today, we’re going to imagine again what it would be like to live in Bible times. Who remembers what story we imagined last week? (Rahab Helps the Two Spies.) Nice job! This week we get to imagine we’re in the middle of a huge battle, but first, I have a question for you. We’re going to answer it in a fun way, though.
• Directions: Tell the kids that they’ll get to choose who answers the question by tossing an imaginary object to each other. It could be something really small like a flopping fish, something really big like a car, something hot like a fireball, etc. After announcing the object of their choosing, a kid will pretend to throw the object to another kid, adjusting how they throw or catch based on the object. (For example, if it’s a refrigerator, the thrower might grunt when tossing it and the catcher might pretend to get crushed.) After answering the question, the catcher can toss a different object to another kid. Continue until everyone has had a chance to answer the question below:
• Say: If the sun didn’t go down for an entire 24-hour day, what would you do with the extra daylight?

+ Fear Knot (Application Activity)

• Say: We all get afraid sometimes, but God says “fear not.” We’re going to play a game right now that will help us think about how having faith in God can keep us from getting tangled up with fear.
• Directions: Tell your children to stand shoulder to shoulder in a tight circle. Chose a kid to go first. Ask them to share something that they are genuinely afraid of. After answering, have them reach across the circle and hold someone’s hand. Have the kid who received the hand holding to share a fear, then reach across the circle with their free hand and hold someone else’s hand. Continue until every kid has shared a fear and all hands are being held. When finished, the kids will be in a tangled knot.
• Say: This is what fear does to us—it puts us in a tangled knot. But God has the power to free us from the fear knot. Psalm 34:4 says, “I looked to the Lord, and he answered me. He saved me from everything I was afraid of.” Let’s see if we can get free from the fear knot.
• Directions: Challenge your group to untangle themselves and make a circle without letting go of each other’s hands. They’ll have to pass over and under one another’s arms to untangle the knot. Assist the kids only as needed. When finished, have the kids take a seat and ask the questions below. Afterwards, if time and interest permits, allow the kids to create more knots and attempt to get free.
• Question:: How can having faith in God help you with your fear?
• Question:: God has power over all things! Does knowing that give you courage when you are afraid? Why or why not?

+ Ring-A-Verse (Bible Memorization Activity)

• Set up:: For each small group, cut the middle circle out of 8 paper plates. The end result should be 8 paper rings. On each ring, use a marker to write the 1/8th portion of today’s Bible verse. “I looked | to the Lord, | and he | answered me. | He saved me | from everything | I was afraid of.” | Psalm 34:4 (NIrV) Next, for each group, use tape to create a “throw line” on the floor. Place a full water bottle (or something similar) on the floor approximately 5 feet beyond the line. Depending on the age and abilities of the kids, you may want to move the bottle further from or closer to the line.
• Directions: Have the kids place the 8 rings on the floor in order of the verse. For younger kids, you may need to assist. When the rings are in order, practice reading and reciting the verse as a group. When finished, turn the rings over and mix them up. On “go,” have the kids race to flip the rings back over, and take turns tossing them in the correct order over the water bottle. The kids may not step over the tape line. If they miss the bottle, they can quickly retrieve the ring, return to the line and try again. Time the kids to see how quickly they can toss all of the rings over the bottle in the correct order. When finished, have the group recite the verse. Repeat several times to see if the group can beat their previous time.
• Question: Has God ever saved you from something you were afraid of? Tell us about it?

+ Prayer Huddle (Prayer Activity)

• Directions: Encourage everyone in your group to share general prayer requests or praises with one another. Ask the kids to share anything they are afraid of or if they have a situation where they need to ask God for faith in their time of fear. When kids are finished sharing, have them get on one knee and huddle in a circle with their arms around one another. Open the group in prayer. Allow the kids in the group to take turns praying aloud for themselves or for each other. When finished, close the group with a final prayer.

LEARNING ACTIVITIES

+ Imagination Time Machine Connect Activity

• Say: This is the first week of a series called “Imagination Time Machine.” We’re going to imagine what it would be like to live in Bible times. To help get us started, I have a question for you, but we’re going to answer it in a fun way.
• Directions: Tell the kids that they’ll get to choose who answers the question by tossing an imaginary object to each other. It could be something really small like a flopping fish, something really big like a car, something hot like a fireball, etc. After announcing the object of their choosing, a kid will pretend to throw the object to another kid, adjusting how they throw or catch based on the object. (For example, if it’s a refrigerator, the thrower might grunt when tossing it and the catcher might pretend to get crushed.) After answering the question, the catcher can toss a different object to another kid. Continue until everyone has had a chance to answer the question below:
• Say: If you had a time machine, where and when would you travel to?

+ Lights, Camera, Action (Application Activity)

• Say: In today’s story, we saw how Rahab put her faith into action by helping the two spies from Israel. It’s easy to say that we believe in God, but if we have faith in Him and follow Jesus, it will also show through our actions. We’re going to do an activity right now that will help us think of some ways that we might act out our faith.
• Directions: Help your child(ren) pair up with each other. If there’s an odd number of kids, the leader can pair up with a kid. Tell the pairs to think of one way they can put their faith into action over the coming week. In other words, what’s a way that you can be helpful or show love to someone? Tell the pairs that they’ll also have to come up with a way to silently act out their action for the others to guess. Allow the pairs a little bit of time to practice. When the kids are ready, choose a pair to act out their action first while the other kids guess what it is. Continue until every pair has had a chance to act. When finished, discuss the following questions.)
• Question: When we put our faith into action, how do you think it helps other people with their faith?
• Question:: Are there certain times or places where you have trouble putting your faith into action?

+ Bible Verse Tic-Tac-Toe (Bible Memorization Activity)

• Set up:: Using tape, create a tic-tac-toe board on the floor in the middle of the group. The squares should be large enough to fit an 8½ x 11 sheet of paper.
• Directions: Place the Bible verse sign in the middle of the group and read it carefully with your kids several times so they can begin to memorize it. When everyone is ready, turn the sign over so they can no longer read it. Today’s Bible verse says: "It is the same with faith. If it doesn’t cause us to do something, it’s dead.” James 2:17 (NIrV) Divide your group into two teams. Give one team the “X” papers and the other team the “O” papers. Have your child recite the verse. If they do so successfully, allow them to place their team’s letter on any open square. If they are unable to recite the verse, their team may not place their letter on the board. Next, give the other team a turn. Continue playing until one team has filled three spaces in a row (horizontal, vertical, or diagonal) with their letters or until every space on the board has been filled.
• Question: Tell us about a time you put your faith into action. What was that like? How did people react?

+ Artrageous Prayers (Prayer Activity)

• Set Up: Provide one plain white self-adhesive name badge for each kid in the group. Hang a piece of poster board or butcher block paper on a wall in the room. At the top of the board write the words, “I give my THANKS to God.”
• Directions: Give everyone a blank name badge sticker. Place some colored markers in the middle of the group. Tell everyone to think of something that they’re thankful for and draw or write about it on their name badge. When finished, allow the kids to show their prayer art and talk about it. Next, lead your group in a closing prayer. Encourage the kids to tell God “thanks!” for the things they drew. Finally, when the prayer is over, lead the kids to the poster board sign that says, “I give my THANKS to God.” Tell them to give their thanks to God by removing the sticker and sticking it to the sign. In the end, the kids will have created a visual art collage.
