For parents
KEY PASSAGE MOTIONS
Say the key passage using motions. Repeat several times and encourage children for trying. “He (point up) must become greater, (hold arms upward in a V) but I (point thumbs to chest) must become less (crouch down)” John 3:30 (open hands like a book).
DISCUSSION GUIDE
Ask the following questions. Retell parts of the Bible story as needed.
How did Jesus feel after not eating for many days? (Jesus was very hungry.)
What did the devil tempt Jesus to turn stones into? (The devil tempted Jesus to turn stones into bread.)
Who was tempted and never sinned? (Jesus was tempted and never sinned.)
Who can help you say no to sin? (Jesus will help you say no to sin and make good choices.)
SAY • Jesus was tempted three times by the devil. He said “no” every time, using the words of the Bible to help Him. The devil could not get Jesus to sin. Jesus has never made a bad choice. He is our perfect Savior, and He died on the cross to save us from sin. When we are tempted to make a bad choice, we can ask Him to help us say “no” to sin.
PRAY
Invite your child to share any prayer requests they have.
SAY • Jesus, we praise you! Even though you were very hungry, you did not turn the stones into bread for yourself. Even though God could have saved you if you jumped off the temple, you chose not to put God to the test. Even though the devil offered You all the power in the world, you chose to say no. Instead, you gave your life to save us from sin. You are our perfect Savior! We love you. Amen.
