First Kids at Houston's First

WE LOVE SUNDAYS!

In Clubhouse Worship, 1st and 2nd graders learned that kids matter to God! In Ephesians 1, the disciple Paul prayed that the people who follow Jesus would have strong faith and know that they matter to God. Kids learned they matter to God too.

In LBS, our 1st-5th graders continued learning the armor of God. Adam and Eve chose to believe the lie that the devil had told them over the Truth that God had for them. At that moment, evil and death entered the world, and we are still battling them today. When we remember God’s Word, we put on the belt of truth. It is the part of God’s armor that gives us the ability to stand up to the lies of the devil. With the belt of truth, we’ll be able to recognize the lies of the devil and overcome them with God’s powerful truth.

In Clubhouse Worship, our 1st and 2nd graders learned about the Hall of Faith in Hebrews 11. Having faith was not easy for these people. Many of these faithful people suffered, and they all died before God’s greatest promise, the arrival of Jesus, came true, but they believed that God had a wonderful plan. God was pleased with them because they trusted Him. We can have faith that God is in control and that He has a good plan, even when what is going on around us might not feel good. When we share with others the way God leads us to faith, it can help them have faith too! When other things we have built up tumble around us, a relationship with God through Jesus is our strong tower that never tumbles.

In LBS, our 1st-5th graders continued to learn from Revelation. In our story, John saw all of heaven praising Jesus. Everyone in heaven was praising Jesus because to Him belong salvation, glory, and power. Only Jesus can save people from their sins. Only Jesus receives glory because God has exalted Him above every other name. And only Jesus has power to defeat sin, death, and all evil. When Jesus returns, He will speak words of authority because He is King, and His words will hold power to defeat evil. Those who trust in Jesus look forward to the day when Satan and evil are destroyed forever. God’s final judgments will be a time of celebration for Christians because Jesus will be victorious over evil. When Jesus returns, He will defeat evil once and for all. Those who trust in Jesus will be with Him and enjoy Him forever.
