#2. John 3:3b (NIV) "I tell you the truth, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again' DOWNLOAD Bible Verse Visual Aid #2

c. Teach the Lesson (15 minutes)
This teaching is about getting set free! We can have the victory. Jesus won the battle on the cross. Before being set free somebody pushes our button (we all have them).we react, we are not free.

Are you walking in victory?

John 10:10 "I came that you may have life and have it to the full!".

Are you having life to the full.or are you struggling, just coping at school? Jesus wants to set you free, not teach you how to cope!

We are more than conquerors in Christ Jesus..are you a conqueror or are children rejecting you and bullying you? Or are you being conquered by your emotions of anger, bitterness, unforgiveness, rejection, loneliness, doubts, thoughts of suicide?

Most adult Christians don't have the victory,
they are like yoyos! (Use the YoYo to demonstrate)

We are created in God's image.

DOWNLOAD Lesson #9 Body, Soul and Spirit Ukrainian Visual Aids

Walk around with Spirit leading in harmony with God. (Everybody smiling and in unity)

Then the fall... (all the children turn and face the other direction, the balloon is deflated and Spirit looks dejected,)

BODY is now in control, following our own desires, controlled by sin, doing as we please.

SOUL is controlled by body, influenced by the world, by what it sees and hears

SIPIRT is now weak, ineffective in bondage

Compliments of https://sermons4kids.com/

But then something happened, it happened one night to a man named Nicodemus who came to talk to Jesus. As Jesus was talking to him, he said something that Nicodemus didn't understand. He told Nicodemus, "No one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again."  Nicodemus was really puzzled by what Jesus said. He just couldn't understand how someone could be born again.

When it comes out, it is no longer a caterpillar, it has been miraculously changed into a beautiful butterfly. God didn't just take a caterpillar and stick some wings on him!

Bible says, "if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!" When we invite Jesus to come into our heart, we become a new creation. God doesn't just clean us up, He makes us into a new person. Would you rather be a worm or a butterfly? Jesus will make you into a new creation if you will invite him into your heart.

' Now when the Trinity, looks at us"

When we become "born again" normally no change takes place in our soul and body. Body -is not born again, the battle is in the mind. Even Apostle Paul struggled.

Read: Romans 7:15
"I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do"

(Drama: SPIRIT suggest going to church, SOUL goes along with it but BODY is running in the opposite direction, he is dragged along.)

Romans 12 : 2
"And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind."

( Drama: SPIRIT is strong, SOUL is transformed, changed and BODY is beginning to come in line.)

6. APPLICATION / ENCOUNTERING GOD:
Let the children bring thier butterfly visual aids and lay them at the foot of the cross and thank God or making them a new creature through His Son Jesus.
