Use this guide to help your family worship and reflect through the week.
You may go through this in any order you wish.
Reinforce this truth throughout the week and during your study.
God saves his people from the Egyptians.
Read the passage to or with your children.
Exodus 4-15
Memorize and recite this verse with your children throughout the week.
"The blood shall be a sign for you.... And when I see the blood, I will pass over you."
- Exodus 12:13
Watch with your children.
Take time with your family to discuss these questions (or variations of these questions) together, and reflect on this week’s truth and Word.
1. QUESTION: What was Pharaoh's response to God's command to let his people go? What happened when he refused to obey? What does this teach us about how we should respond to God's commands?
TAKEAWAY: God will punish all those who refuse to obey him, just as he punished the Egyptians.
2. QUESTION: How did we see God as more powerful than Pharaoh? How did we see God's power over creation? What did God use his power to accomplish?
TAKEAWAY: God is all-powerful and nothing can stop him from delivering his people from evil.
3. QUESTION: What happened when the Israelites put the blood of a lamb over their doorpost? What are we saved from when we trust that the blood of Jesus perfectly covers our sin? How is Jesus like the lamb in our story?
TAKEAWAY: The blood of Jesus saves us from sin and death; he is the perfect Passover Lamb.
