Psalm 2
Do not forget that this world rages against Christ Jesus. Be strangers in this world that hates God.
Genesis 6.1-7.5
For younger children read at least Genesis 6.8. You may also talk about how we find favor in the eyes of God by our baptism.
For older children you could discuss this prayer – “Lord, give to Your people today the confidence in Your salvation that Noah demonstrated when he willingly placed himself and the welfare of his family into Your gracious care. Amen.” The Lutheran Study Bible
Mark 3.1-19
For younger children read at least Mark 3.14,15 and repeat it so that it might be written on the heart. You might also try to help them memorize the names of the Twelve.
For older children you could discuss this – “In contrast to the Pharisees’ and Herodians’ hostility, the crowds enthusiastically press around Jesus to listen and be healed. The mixed reaction to Jesus has not changed over the years. Many still reject Him, while others desperately seek His help. He nonetheless attends to people’s physical and spiritual needs. He continues to bless those who seek Him today.” The Lutheran Study Bible
Write it on the heart verses – Genesis 6.8 and Mark 3.14,15
Small Catechism for the week: The Sixth Petition Lead us not into temptation. What does this mean? God surely tempts no one to sin, but we pray in this petition that God would guard and keep us, so that the devil, the world, and our flesh may not deceive us or lead us into false belief, despair, and other great and shameful sins; and though we are tempted by them, we pray that we may overcome and win the victory.
Small Catechism question for the day: What happens when we are tempted? James 1.13,14 Let no one say when he is tempted, ‘I am being tempted by God,’ for God cannot be tempted with evil, and he himself tempts no one. But each person is tempted when he is lured and enticed by his own desire.
