1 Jacob s Ladder Bible Verse The Lord bless you and keep you. (Numbers 6:24) Did You Know? As we encounter Jacob in today s Bible story, he is on the run. Having tricked his father, Isaac, into giving him the blessing meant for his older brother, Esau, it was no longer safe for Jacob to remain at home. In order to escape Esau s plan to kill him, Jacob leaves to go live with his mother s family. Today s Bible story is the first story about Jacob by himself, without his twin brother. Whether he should have or not, Jacob has received the blessing from Isaac. This story marks the transition in Genesis from Isaac s story to Jacob s story As Jacob is headed for Haran, he stops along the way for the night. While he is asleep, God appears to Jacob in his dream. God s message to Jacob is a promise. Like God did for his grandfather, Abraham, God promises Jacob land, many descendants, and protection. Jacob is also promised God s presence, now and always. When Jacob awakened from his dream, he realized its significance. Being on the run as he was, Jacob was likely afraid and uncertain of his future. God s promise to be with him always changed everything. Young children learn about promises kept and promises broken from adults. Make every effort to keep the promises you give the children you teach.

Fold over the grocery bag and staple or tape the top shut. Or seal the plastic bag. Have the children stand in a circle. ASK: What is a blessing? SAY: Sometimes we call the thank-you words we say before we eat a blessing. Sometimes we call nice things that happen to us blessings. We might say, It s a blessing that Luke has a new baby brother. A blessing can also be a special prayer where you use words to tell someone that God loves him or her and God wants to take care of him or her. This week is Thanksgiving. It s a time when we thank God for blessing us. I m going to pass this bag filled with snack mix around the circle. When you get the bag, shake it three times and then tells us something you are thankful for. Help the children pass the bag around the circle and say a thank-you prayer. After each child has had a turn shaking the bag, have the children sit on the floor or at a table. Choose a child to hand out napkins and another child to hand out paper cups. Scoop some of the Thanksgiving Mix into each child s cup. Enjoy eating the snack together. PRAY: Thank you, God, for blessings. Fall 2015 Session 12 DeepBlueKids.com 77
