Always Rejoice!
Play: Take a deck of cards and deal them out to everyone in your family. Have everyone flip a card over at the same time. The person with the highest card “wins.” The winner is then to give a “shout out” to God and praise him for something he has done. You can continue as many rounds as you would like.
Relay: Did it feel good to win? When you won, you shouted praise to God. But God does not want us to only rejoice in Him when things go well; He wants us to rejoice in Him ALL the time (Philippians 4:4). Sometimes you might not feel like rejoicing (when you are sick, you didn’t make a team, you had a bad day at school, etc.), but you can always find a reason to rejoice. Jesus died and rose again! That is the best reason of all!
Obey:
What does it mean to rejoice?
Why might you not sometimes feel like rejoicing?
Why does God want us to rejoice all the time?
Pray: Ask God to help you rejoice in Him all day every day.
Scripture of the Day: Philippians 4:4
