Possible Viewpont: Evangelical Christian

Title: The Feast of Unleavened Bread

Lesson:

Hello, young friends! Today, we are going to learn about a very special feast in the Bible called the Feast of Unleavened Bread. This feast is also known as Passover, and it is a time when the people of Israel remember how God rescued them from slavery in Egypt.

In the Bible, God told the Israelites to eat unleavened bread during the Feast of Unleavened Bread. Do you know what unleavened bread is? It is bread that is made without yeast, so it doesn’t rise like regular bread. This reminds us of how the Israelites had to leave Egypt in a hurry, so they didn’t have time to let their bread rise.

During the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the Israelites also had to remove all the leaven, or yeast, from their homes. This symbolizes getting rid of sin in our lives. Just like the Israelites had to get rid of the leaven from their homes, we need to get rid of sin from our hearts.

God wanted the Israelites to remember how He rescued them from slavery and brought them to the Promised Land. He also wants us to remember His goodness and faithfulness in our lives. We can celebrate God’s faithfulness by obeying His commands and trusting Him to take care of us, just like He took care of the Israelites.

Let’s remember the Feast of Unleavened Bread as a time to remove sin from our lives and trust in God’s plan for us. God is always faithful, and He will never leave us or forsake us. Let’s rejoice in the freedom we have in Christ and give thanks for His love and grace.

Prayer: Dear God, thank you for your faithfulness and love. Help us to remove sin from our hearts and trust in your plan for us. May we always remember your goodness and celebrate your faithfulness in our lives. Amen.

I hope you learned something new about the Feast of Unleavened Bread today, young friends! Let’s always remember God’s faithfulness and trust in His plan for us. God bless you!
