CHILD-FRIENDLY BE WHERE THE LORD NEEDS TO MEET YOU

Memory Verse: “That night the Lord appeared to Solomon in a dream.” — 1 Kings 3:5

 

What Does This Mean? 

God wants to talk to us, help us, and bless us—but we need to be in the right place to hear Him. 

That place can be:

- Church 

- Prayer time 

- A quiet moment with God 

- A special event like a retreat or conference

Why Is It Important? 

- God has special plans for each of us. 

- Sometimes, He wants to meet us in a specific place to give us wisdom, peace, or direction. 

- Just like Solomon, who met God in Gibeon, we need to be ready and willing to go where God calls us.

Bible Example: Solomon

Solomon was a king who needed wisdom. 

He went to Gibeon, a special place where God was waiting to meet him. 

There, God spoke to Solomon in a dream and gave him wisdom because Solomon was in the right place and had a humble heart.

What Can We Learn? 

- Be ready to listen to God. 

- Be present in places where God speaks—like church, prayer time, or Bible study. 

- Sometimes we need to make sacrifices (like giving up time or distractions) to meet with God.

REFLECTION QUESTIONS

1. Are you spending time in places where God can speak to you? 

2. What can you do to be more ready to hear from God? 

3. Have you ever felt God speak to you during prayer or church? 

4. What do you need from God right now, and are you willing to meet Him where He calls you?

PRAYER: Dear God, help me to be in the right place where You want to meet me. Teach me to listen, obey, and follow You. I want to hear Your voice and receive Your blessings. Amen.

Shalom

IT IS NEVER TOO LATE TO START AGAIN!

Job 17:10-11 GW   "But now, all of you, come and try again! I won’t find one wise man among you.  My days are passing by. My plans are broken. My dreams are shattered."[10]   Life may require us to start again—and it’s never too late to start over. One of life’s certainties is that everyone will experience failure at something at some point. Life is never an unbroken series of victories. Setbacks, losses, and sometimes defeat will happen and may overwhelm us. Defeat may be thrust upon us by circumstance or by others, or we may defeat ourselves by our own thoughts and actions. When this happens, some give up, some persist until they succeed, and others are willing to start over again. Luke 7:11-15 gives the account of the widow of Nain, on her way to bury her only son, crying, distraught after losing another close family member. On the way, Jesus saw her, had compassion, and acted.  The woman must have thought, "Is He kidding? Does He know what I've been t...

DIVINE VISION!

Jeremiah 1:1-11 NASB The words of Jeremiah the son of Hilkiah, of the priests who were in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin, [2] to whom the word of the Lord came in the days of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign. [3] It came also in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, until the end of the eleventh year of Zedekiah the son of Josiah, king of Judah, until the exile of Jerusalem in the fifth month. [4] Now the word of the Lord came to me, saying, [5] “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, And before you were born I consecrated you; I have appointed you as a prophet to the nations.” [6] Then I said, “Oh, Lord God! Behold, I do not know how to speak, Because I am a youth.” [7] But the Lord said to me, “Do not say, ‘I am a youth,’ Because everywhere I send you, you shall go, And all that I command you, you shall speak. [8] “Do not be afraid of them, For I am with you to save you,” declares the Lord. [9] Then the Lord stretch...

RESISTANCE FROM STEPPING INTO PURPOSE!

John 16:33 AMPC I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have [perfect] peace and confidence. In the world you have tribulation and trials and distress and frustration; but be of good cheer [take courage; be confident, certain, undaunted]! For I have overcome the world. [I have deprived it of power to harm you and have conquered it for you.]   Stepping into your God-given purpose is one of the most powerful decisions you will ever make. But it is also one of the most resisted. The Bible makes it clear that whenever God calls a person, opposition rises—externally, internally, and spiritually. Jesus Himself tells us that trials will come, but His victory gives us courage and peace. Every believer must understand this: resistance is not a sign that you’re in the wrong place; it is often proof that you’re stepping into the right one. Everyone called by God faces resistance! Throughout Scripture, the moment people stepped into divine purpose, they faced pushback. ...
