Title: Our Forever Home: Living with God After the Last Great Day

Introduction:
Hello, everyone! Today, we are going to talk about something very special—the Last Great Day! This is an amazing time that God has promised us. Imagine a day when everything will be made new and we will live forever with God in happiness and joy. Let’s explore what that means and how we can prepare for our forever home with God!

1. What is the Last Great Day?
The Last Great Day is a wonderful event that will happen at the end of the world. It’s a time when God will make everything perfect again. Think about the happiest, most beautiful day you’ve ever experienced—this day will be even better! It’s a time when we will get to live with God and enjoy His presence forever.

2. God’s Promise:
In the Bible, God promises us that He has a special place prepared for us. In John 14:2-3, Jesus tells us, “In My Father’s house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.” This means that God wants us to be with Him in a beautiful home, where there is no sadness, pain, or fear.

3. What Will Our Forever Home Be Like?
Although we can’t fully understand what our forever home will look like, the Bible gives us some clues! Picture a place filled with love, light, and laughter. There will be beautiful gardens, crystal-clear rivers, and streets made of gold! But the best part is that we will be with God, and He will take care of us forever.

4. Living with God:
In our forever home, we will be close to God every day. We will get to talk to Him, sing praises, and enjoy His perfect love. Think about your favorite times playing with friends or being with your family—our time with God will be even more joyful and fulfilling! He will wipe away our tears and heal our hearts.

5. How Can We Prepare for Our Forever Home?
Here are some simple ways we can prepare to live with God:

– **Love Others:** Jesus taught us to love our neighbors and treat others with kindness. When we show love to others, we are showing God’s love through us.

– **Pray:** Talking to God helps us grow closer to Him. We can share our thoughts, thank Him for our blessings, and ask for help.

– **Read the Bible:** God’s Word teaches us about His love and how to live for Him. The more we learn, the more we can share His love with others.

– **Share the Good News:** Let’s tell our friends and family about Jesus and the wonderful promise of our forever home. The more people who know, the more who can join us!

Conclusion:
The Last Great Day is a beautiful promise from God, reminding us that we are headed to a forever home where we will live with Him in joy and love. Let’s remember to prepare our hearts and share that love with others so they can join us in this amazing place. Always remember: God loves you and wants to be with you forever!

Let’s pray together and thank God for His promises and ask Him to help us live in a way that prepares us for our forever home. Amen!

Gather the children around and explain that we are going to talk about a very special place where we can live forever with God. Invite them to join you inside the box/playhouse to create a safe and happy environment.

3. **Nature Pictures**:
Show the children the pictures of nature and place them around the home. Explain that in God’s forever home, there will be beautiful things like flowers, trees, and animals. Ask them to help you hang or place the pictures, discussing how lovely it would be to see these things every day.

4. **Toy Figurines**:
Take out the toy figurines and explain that in God’s home, we will be together with our friends and family, just like these toys are together. Encourage the children to place the figurines inside the home and talk about who they would like to be with in God’s forever home.
