5. TEACHING:
a. Review:

Last session we were taught that Jonah learned that you might run from God, but you cannot hide. DOWNLOAD Review 'Jonah and the whale' colouring page.

Just like Jonah we have a BIG problem, sin has separated us from God.

On one hand God LOVES us and does not want punish us but on the other hand He is JUST and must punish sin.

Do you see the problem?

God solved that problem by sending His Son Jesus.

b. Sword Play #1
Ready…Swords up… Marko 1:8 … CHARGE

(Read Matthew 3: 13-17 - Dramatize the Bible reading)

Preparation: Get two volunteers to hold the blue cloth at each corner about 3 foot off the ground.
“We’ll pretend this is the water of the Jordan River.“
Get a child actor to dress up like Jesus (white wrap and blue sash) and stand behind the “water.”
Get a child actor to dress up like John the Baptist to stand next to Jesus with his hand on ‘Jesus’ shoulder as if he is getting ready to baptize Jesus.
Get another child to stoop on a chair, hiding behind Jesus, with the dove template.
Get an adult male to be the voice of God the Father. Use a roll of paper to make his voice loud.

John will lower Jesus below the ‘water’ and as He comes out Jesus will raise His hands to Heaven and the child with the dove will hold it above His head, and God ‘s voice then thunders out. “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased.”

Optional: Download Bible for Children 'a man sent by God' Chichewa PowerPoint to assist with the teaching Sourced from Bible for Children.

• Jesus humbled himself by allowing John to baptize him because it was important to Jesus to do things God’s way.

• God is pleased with us when we obey Him – the Holy Spirit in us helps us to become obedient to God in the same way the dove came upon Jesus and God said He loved Him and was delighted in Him
• Baptism is a SYMBOL that lets other people know that we are followers of Christ and have asked Jesus into our hearts. "Baptism" is a SYMBOL that we are in God's family! We will learn all about this over the next few weeks.

One of the things John preached about was fruit. He talked about trees being cut down if they did not produce the fruit of repentance. (That is being sorry for our wrongdoing and turning from that way of life)

Can you tell when someone is sorry for something bad he did to you? God can tell if you are really sorry when you repent, and tell Him you are sorry for bad behavior.

John told those people that the ax was waiting at the base of the tree. And that all trees that did not bear fruit would be cut down and thrown into the fire.If a tree is unhealthy, will it produce good fruit? (No)

If a tree is diseased, a farmer will cut it down because he does not want the disease to spread to other trees. So John preached to these people and told them that if they really did not repent and mean it, then they would be cut down, gotten rid of, and thrown into the fire.

What does the fruit of repentance look like? The fruit of repentance is understanding in your heart, not just in your head, that you are a sinner and that you deserve to be cut down and thrown into the fire. It is understanding that God is in charge of everything. Everything is in His kingdom, including you.

Are you producing the fruit of repentance?John told us that the kingdom of heaven was at hand. Jesus was coming. And in order to recognize Jesus for Who He was, the hearts of the people, our hearts, must be prepared to make way the paths of the Lord. The fruit of repentance is the humble acceptance of God’s grace to forgive.

6. APPLICATION / ENCOUNTERING GOD:

CLOSING PRAYER:
Thank you God for sending Jesus. Though it seems like he wouldn’t need to be baptized he loved us so much he wanted to (identify with our humanity) join with us in baptism. Thank you also for so powerfully sending the Holy Spirit to be upon him and that you can fill us with that same Holy Spirit today. In Jesus’ name – Amen!

REMEMBER: Life is a free gift, but God has a gift He wants to give us, the gift of eternal life with Him in Heaven! What stops us from getting that gift... SIN! Sin enters the world through Adam and Eve, What is SIN? Sin is anything we think, or say, or do or don't do that displeases God. Remember sin separates us from God. Sin has consequences and God deals with Sin thought water, remember the story of Noah? Eventually you will learn that God dealt with sin through blood even the blood of His Son, Jesus!

Remember we learnt that we can run but not hide from God, look at Jonah! So we have a problem. Last week we learnt that God solved that problem by sending His Son Jesus.

NEXT WEEK: We will continue with the ‘Water Series’ leaning the Jesus, the Son of God lived a perfect and POWERFUL life he could still the storm and calm the waters "What kind of man is this? Even the wind and the waves obey him!"

Njira ya Zotchinga Zambiri pa Madzi Akumwa Otetezeka:

Njira yabwino yochepetsera chiopsezo chakumwa madzi osatetezeka ndikugwiritsa ntchito njira zotchinga zambiri.

Masitepe asanu a njira yotchinga madzi akumwa abwino ndi awa:
1. Tetezani gwero lanu la madzi
2. Sungani madzi anu
3. Sefa madzi anu
4. Thirani madzi anu
5. Sungani madzi anu bwino

1.Tetezani gwero lanu la madzi
Khalani aukhondo. Sungani zinyalala za anthu ndi zinyama. Musalole madzi ena kusakanikirana ndi madzi - sungani madzi otuluka pamwamba, kutuluka ndi madzi otayira kunja.

Stop Microbes - Protect Your Well

Key Message: Build your latrine downhill and away from your well.

Possible Questions:

•  Where is your latrine?

•  Where is your well?

•  What is the distance between them?

•  Do you think it is safe for your latrine to be next to your well?

Content:

This poster shows where to build your latrine to help keep our well water safe.

Microbes from latrines move through the ground and can end up in the ground water.

Latrines should be built far away from our wells. As a general rule, latrines should be kept 30 metres away from our wells. At this distance, microbes from latrines will die naturally before getting to the well.

Latrines should always be built downhill of our wells since it is difficult for microbes to move uphill. This will help to protect our well water.

Check for Understanding:

•  Why do we want to keep our latrine far away from our well?

•  As a general rule, how far should our latrines be built from a well?

•  Why should we build a latrine downhill of a well?

Tetezani madzi anu oyeretsedwa

Uthenga wofunikira: Madzi oyeretsedwa ayenera kusungidwa bwino kuti asatetezeke.

Mafunso Otheka:

•  Kodi madzi angasungidwe bwanji?

•  Kodi mumagwiritsa ntchito chotengera chamtundu wanji posungira madzi?
