Breaking the Chains: Overcoming Sin Through Christ

Possible Viewpont: Evangelical Christian

Title: Breaking the Chains: Overcoming Sin Through Christ

Verse: “For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery” Galatians 5:1

Introduction:

Hello, children! Today we are going to talk about something really important. We will talk about our freedom in Jesus. Do you know what freedom is? Freedom means that we are not trapped or chained by anything. We are free to do what we want to do. But sometimes we can be trapped in bad habits or things that are not pleasing to God. These things can make us feel like we are in chains. But, did you know that Jesus can break those chains and set us free?

Story:

Once there was a young boy named Tim. Tim loved to play video games all day long. He didn’t like to study or do his homework. One day, a friend invited him to church. There, Tim learned that Jesus could set him free from his bad habits. Tim decided to ask Jesus to help him overcome his video game addiction. Every time he wanted to play video games, he prayed to Jesus instead. It was hard at first, but slowly, Tim found that he was no longer trapped. He was free!

Lesson:

Just like Tim, we can be trapped by things that are not pleasing to God. But Jesus can set us free! All we have to do is ask Him for help. The Bible tells us that when we believe in Jesus, He sets us free from sin. That means we don’t have to keep doing the things that are not pleasing to God. We can choose to do the things that honor Him instead.

Craft:

As a reminder of our freedom in Jesus, let’s make a paper chain. Each link can represent a bad habit or a sin that we want to overcome. Write down one bad habit or sin on each link of the chain. Then, cut the chain and pray with your parents for each one of the things that you wrote down. Remember to ask Jesus to help you to break the chain and to set you free.

Closing:

Today we learned that Jesus can set us free from sin. When we believe in Him, He breaks our chains and gives us freedom. Whenever we feel trapped by a bad habit or sin, we can ask Jesus for help. He will help us to overcome it, and we will be free!
