Lesson 4.3 - The Wilderness Test

Lesson 4.3 - The Wilderness Test

Jan 10th

This week, we continued our journey through the Bible using The Gospel Project^® for Kids and learned that God provided food and water for His people as they wandered in the wilderness. When Israel became hungry and thirsty, they grumbled about Moses and God, and God graciously provided for them even if they did not deserve it. In the same way that God provided for Israel’s physical need, God provides for the spiritual need of people through Jesus.

Help your kids understand that God is gracious and He freely gives what we need - including Jesus - not because of anything they have done, but because of God’s goodness alone.
