The Children May Help

Lesson for the Children — No. 7

The Children May Help

MEMORY TEXT: “And we are his witnesses of these things.” Acts 5 : 32.

Review part of lesson 5, showing how even the ‘children were helpers and workers for Jesus when he lived among men.

Now there is a great work to be done before Jesus comes again. Every nation must be warned, so that the people may get ready.

Illustrate by a great house being built in a very short time. One man, or even a few, could not build it quickly. Some must work on the walls, others on the roof, and still more on the inside, till the workmen seem to swarm all over the building.

A temple for God is being built. The stones must be alive. Shall we read about it? Eph. 2 : 20-22. Some will be pillars. Rev. 3 : 12. Jesus will write on them. What?

Some of the pillars will come from India, China, Japan, South America, Africa, Europe, and the islands. O, so many workmen are needed to get the pillars ready so that they can take their places in the beautiful temple! There is a place reserved for even the children in the building.

(The leader should give items of interest from the mission fields, especially anything that relates to the children. These may be obtained from different readings for this week of prayer and from our periodicals. Close with a season of earnest prayer for the missionaries and those for whom they labor.)
