    DID YOU KNOW?


    The Israelites had fallen into a cycle of rebellion, repentance, and restoration.
    Deborah was a prophetess, a woman chosen by God to be a judge and to help
    deliver Israel.
    When Israel chose to turn away from God, He turned them over to the hands of
    their enemies.
    When Deborah encouraged the Israelites to return to God, He immediately
    delivered them from the hands of their enemies.

    REMEMBER VERSE

    GOD IS WITH US
    Part of The Big God Story
    Judges 45
    God uses Deborah, Barak, and Jael to deliver the Israelites from a wicked king
    and his commander. As they serve God, these three people help bring about
    restoration after the Israelites repent of their sins and cry out to God. And God
    rushes in to save themin fact, Hed never left them.

    JUST FOR FUN


    Let each person in the family name something she worked hard to learn. Discuss
    what problems, obstacles, or fears made it hard to succeed. Then tell your
    children youre going to read a part of The Big God Story that describes when
    God led His people to victory in battle. Read Judges 4:116 and Judges 5:31.
    Discuss why Barak wanted Deborah to go with him. Ask your children, Did God
    ever leave His people?

    YOUNGER KIDS
    Your encouragement is extremely important to your child. When your child makes
    mistakes, he needs to know you still love and accept him. Be sure that when you
    correct your child, your words are bathed in love and understanding.

    OLDER KIDS
    Your child may struggle with the fear that God wont accept her when she makes
    mistakes. Remind her that God never leaves His people, and that even though
    we may experience His discipline, He continues to love us and accept us as His
    children.
