CHILD-FRIENDLY ELISHEBA!

Exodus 6:23 – “Aaron married Elisheba, daughter of Amminadab and sister of Nahshon, and she gave birth to Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.”

 

Have you ever heard of Elisheba? She’s a special woman in the Bible who many people don’t know about. But she was very important! Elisheba was married to Aaron, the brother of Moses. She was the mother of four sons, and one of them—Eleazar—became a great priest who served God.

Why Is Elisheba Special?

Elisheba didn’t try to be famous. She didn’t stand in the spotlight. But she raised children who were part of God’s plan. Even though two of her sons made bad choices, one of them followed God and became a leader.

Elisheba reminds us that mothers and caregivers are heroes—even when no one sees what they do. She helped shape her children with love and faith.

What Can We Learn from Elisheba?

- You don’t have to be famous to be important to God.

- What you do behind the scenes matters!

- God sees your love, your prayers, and your hard work.

- You can help others grow strong in faith—just like Elisheba did.

Are You Like Elisheba?

Maybe you help take care of your brothers, sisters, or friends. Maybe you pray for your family. Maybe you’re learning to follow God and help others do the same. That’s what makes you special—just like Elisheba!

MEMORY VERSE: Proverbs 22:6 “Teach a child to choose the right path, and when he is older, he will remain upon it.

REFLECTION QUESTIONS

-        What do I do when no one notices the good things I do—do I still keep doing them like Elisheba?

-        How can I help my younger siblings, friends, or classmates learn more about God?

-        What does it mean to do something important for God, even if no one sees me doing it?

-        What can I learn from Elisheba’s story that helps me follow God better?

PRAYER: Dear God, I give myself to You. Please use me to do Your work, whether people see it or not. Help me be strong and kind, even when I’m helping quietly behind the scenes. Teach me to love others and help them grow in You. Let my life show Your love and goodness in Jesus’ name, 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. ...
