Hi there, Happy Sabbath. 00:00:01.36\00:00:03.37 Come on in. We're about to meet with the King. 00:00:03.40\00:00:06.13 ¤ ¤ 00:00:06.17\00:00:51.21 Hello, I'm Auntie Cecily. It's so good that you could join us 00:00:51.25\00:00:56.38 to meet with the King. We're about to open the Sabbath. 00:00:56.45\00:00:59.32 Come and join in our worship time together. Hello Auntie Nat, 00:00:59.35\00:01:03.53 it's so good to have you with us here. 00:01:03.56\00:01:06.13 It's great to be here. And Hello children. We're glad you could 00:01:06.16\00:01:09.13 be with us too to help us to welcome the King. Hello Teddy, 00:01:09.16\00:01:14.04 It's so good to have you with us as well. Auntie Nat, can you 00:01:14.07\00:01:18.84 please say a prayer to ask God to be with us? 00:01:18.87\00:01:21.84 Yes, I'd love to. Dear heavenly Father, we thank and praise your 00:01:21.88\00:01:25.65 name for the Sabbath and we just thank you for keeping us safe 00:01:25.68\00:01:29.08 during this week. We ask Lord you'll be with the children here 00:01:29.12\00:01:32.52 and the children who are watching at home. And we just 00:01:32.55\00:01:34.99 ask this in Jesus' name, Amen. 00:01:35.02\00:01:37.43 Do you know that this is a great time to reflect on our week and 00:01:37.46\00:01:42.73 just count the blessings that God has sent us. Elijah, is 00:01:42.76\00:01:46.43 there something that's happened to you during the week that you 00:01:46.47\00:01:49.30 can thank God for? 00:01:49.37\00:01:50.84 Yeah, my parents, they went to Queensland and that left us with 00:01:50.91\00:01:54.51 our grandparents. Then one night they called us, it was my mom, 00:01:54.54\00:01:59.05 and she said that my dad's IPad they had lost it. So she 00:01:59.08\00:02:04.55 asked us at home to pray for them to help them find it. So 00:02:04.59\00:02:10.03 then we prayed to help the IPad get found on five minutes later 00:02:10.06\00:02:13.73 they rang again to say that they'd found it. 00:02:13.80\00:02:17.00 Isn't God generous Thank you for sharing that with us. And Auntie 00:02:17.07\00:02:21.80 Cecily you have a blessing to share with us as well. 00:02:21.84\00:02:23.91 Yes I do. Remember last Sabbath we spoke about how God is our 00:02:24.01\00:02:28.81 Deliverer. Well I want to share with you how God is also holy. 00:02:28.84\00:02:33.15 Later on in our Bible study we're going to learn about the 00:02:33.18\00:02:37.52 time when Moses came into the presence of God and how he had 00:02:37.59\00:02:41.79 to remove his shoes because where God physically is, is holy 00:02:41.82\00:02:45.49 ground. Then Bible tells us that in heaven, angels surround the 00:02:45.53\00:02:50.87 throne of God, not resting day or night, saying holy, holy, 00:02:50.90\00:02:55.70 holy is the Lord God almighty. And when Isaiah saw that in 00:02:55.74\00:03:00.58 vision he just trembled physically and he was quite 00:03:00.61\00:03:05.61 shaken by the experience. But we know that we can now approach 00:03:05.68\00:03:10.59 God's throne through the intercession of Jesus because 00:03:10.62\00:03:14.39 Jesus died for our sins and through Him we can bring all our 00:03:14.42\00:03:18.83 requests to God. In Hebrews and in 1 Timothy we read that Jesus 00:03:18.86\00:03:23.23 stands between us and the holiness of God. That's why when 00:03:23.26\00:03:29.50 we finish our prayers we say in Jesus' name. But remember 00:03:29.54\00:03:35.71 Jesus said When you've seen Me you've seen the Father. So we're 00:03:35.74\00:03:41.02 not to be afraid of God. So then God's holiness is beauty 00:03:41.05\00:03:45.02 and Psalm 29 tells us that we are to worship God in the beauty 00:03:45.05\00:03:49.72 of holiness. So do you think you can remember that God is a 00:03:49.76\00:03:54.40 holy God. 00:03:54.43\00:03:57.60 Amen. Auntie Cecily, thanks for sharing that with us. God is so 00:03:57.63\00:04:00.57 good. Do you know, another way that we can worship God on the 00:04:00.64\00:04:03.51 Sabbath is through singing. Thanks Pastor Rick. 00:04:03.54\00:04:07.81 Thanks Auntie Nat. Welcome 00:04:07.84\00:04:10.38 children. What if we sing that 00:04:10.45\00:04:12.91 song Anywhere With Jesus? 00:04:12.95\00:04:14.75 Let's repeat it. 00:05:11.44\00:05:12.77 Pastor Rick can we please sing the books of the Bible? 00:05:42.00\00:05:45.14 Do you think you can remember them all? 00:05:45.17\00:05:48.28 Yes. Let's give it a try. 00:05:48.31\00:05:50.48 Pastor Rick can we please sing I Have Decided to Follow Jesus 00:07:07.26\00:07:12.56 We certainly can. 00:07:12.59\00:07:14.83 Thanks Pastor Rick. It's so good to just praise God in song. 00:08:02.91\00:08:08.15 You know Dr. John also had a blessing to share with us. 00:08:08.18\00:08:11.89 Let's go and have a look at that. 00:08:11.92\00:08:13.86 Hello boys and girls. My name is Dr. John Hammond and we're 00:08:13.89\00:08:18.53 at Sunnyside and we're about to leave and to do some 00:08:18.56\00:08:22.70 exploring and we're going to find something that's very, very 00:08:22.73\00:08:26.23 interesting. Just come with me and we'll go looking. 00:08:26.27\00:08:36.48 I want to tell you the story about this pulpit here and this 00:08:36.51\00:08:41.02 church. Many years ago, about 1896 when they built the first 00:08:41.05\00:08:44.72 building everybody went to church over there in the village 00:08:44.75\00:08:49.46 in a hotel. Now, a hotel is not the best place to go to church. 00:08:49.49\00:08:54.20 Very hot in summer, cold in winter. And then they decided 00:08:54.23\00:08:59.13 to build a church on the highest piece of land in Courenbong, 00:08:59.17\00:09:03.41 right where we're standing. I've even got a photo of the church 00:09:03.44\00:09:08.81 and it took them two months to build that church. A fine church 00:09:08.84\00:09:14.22 When they brought all the pews up, they also had to make a 00:09:14.25\00:09:18.95 pulpit and this is a very special pulpit and it stood here 00:09:18.99\00:09:25.36 for many, many years. Now Ellen White used to preach from this 00:09:25.43\00:09:31.77 desk. She had a problem. You come around here. Now, not 00:09:31.80\00:09:38.91 everybody could see her because she was just a tiny lady. You 00:09:38.94\00:09:45.71 made allowances for tall people, tall people, very tall people 00:09:45.75\00:09:50.72 but they had to make something for Ellen. And this is what it 00:09:50.79\00:09:55.89 was. This is a low footstool. It's been a little bit worn out 00:09:55.92\00:10:02.33 over the years. If I put that down here. Hah, can you see 00:10:02.36\00:10:07.24 Ellen now? Do you feel comfortable? Would you like to 00:10:07.27\00:10:12.07 preach a sermon or sing a song? Ellen White was a tiny little 00:10:12.14\00:10:17.65 person and she spoke to the people in this church for years 00:10:17.68\00:10:23.12 and years and she had a good voice for a tiny little 00:10:23.15\00:10:27.96 lady and her voice would carry right up. They could hear her 00:10:27.99\00:10:31.09 outside. They could hear her right across the road. She had 00:10:31.13\00:10:35.50 such a beautiful voice. But one day this little old church that 00:10:35.53\00:10:39.70 we saw in the picture started to get a bit old. The termites were 00:10:39.73\00:10:43.91 around and the timbers were getting a bit rotted, so they 00:10:43.94\00:10:48.48 decided to build a new church. But they wanted to do something. 00:10:48.51\00:10:53.05 They decided that the pulpit, the new pulpit, the big one had 00:10:53.08\00:10:57.82 to be in exactly the same spot that the old one was and so they 00:10:57.89\00:11:03.56 marked it out and then they got to and they built the new church 00:11:03.63\00:11:09.50 see the frame and we're standing inside the church and here it 00:11:09.53\00:11:15.50 was the church after all those years and then when they had the 00:11:15.54\00:11:20.81 roof up, they got to and they pulled down the old church and 00:11:20.88\00:11:25.41 they didn't know what to do with this and so they took this 00:11:25.45\00:11:29.25 away and they thought this is too historic, we can't get rid 00:11:29.28\00:11:33.66 of it and so they took it to Sunnyside. And you know what? 00:11:33.69\00:11:39.63 This is the first time in over 40 years that this pulpit has 00:11:39.66\00:11:45.83 come back to its original spot. You know, I would love to stand 00:11:45.87\00:11:51.97 and speak from this pulpit. I've spoken from that pulpit 00:11:52.01\00:11:56.28 many times but this one is extra special. And I think of the 00:11:56.31\00:12:00.55 sermons that Mrs. White must have preached from here 00:12:00.62\00:12:04.72 and it was just at the back of the church where she used to 00:12:04.75\00:12:08.06 meet the little boys and girls at the church. Every Sabbath she 00:12:08.09\00:12:11.53 knew the name of every one of them. She was a great preacher 00:12:11.56\00:12:15.80 and she loved boys and girls and fortunately they put up a foot 00:12:15.83\00:12:21.17 stool so she could be seen over the pulpit. And they put a nice 00:12:21.20\00:12:26.04 cushion there for her Bible and special timber and this stood 00:12:26.07\00:12:30.45 here for all those years. And that is the only part now left 00:12:30.48\00:12:34.82 of the original church. Everything else is gone except 00:12:34.85\00:12:39.69 the pulpit. Listen, can you hear the echo. I can almost imagine 00:12:39.72\00:12:45.56 echoes of Ellen preaching from this very spot, not in the same 00:12:45.59\00:12:50.27 building but from this very pulpit. Isn't that fascinating? 00:12:50.30\00:12:54.90 Thank you. 00:12:54.94\00:12:56.27 Hi boys and girls. Happy Sabbath Welcome to our Bible study. 00:12:57.87\00:13:00.48 If you haven't got your Bibles ready yet go get them so you can 00:13:00.51\00:13:03.35 follow along with us. Sarah you're going to say a prayer for 00:13:03.38\00:13:05.81 today. Would you like to say a prayer to open our study? 00:13:05.85\00:13:08.28 Thank you. 00:13:08.32\00:13:09.65 Dear God, thank you for our Bibles. Thank you that we are 00:13:09.68\00:13:12.95 here studying the Your word Help the children to understand what 00:13:13.02\00:13:15.66 they read. In Jesus' name, Amen. 00:13:15.69\00:13:17.96 Amen. So Sarah do you remember what we studied about last 00:13:17.99\00:13:22.50 Sabbath? 00:13:22.53\00:13:23.87 Yes. Pharaoh's daughter found Moses in the river and sent him 00:13:23.90\00:13:26.60 back to his mother to nursed, and he grew up in the palace 00:13:26.63\00:13:30.11 But something happened. What happened? 00:13:30.14\00:13:31.54 He killed an Egyptian 00:13:31.57\00:13:33.41 He killed and Egyptian and did he... 00:13:33.48\00:13:34.81 And he had to flee from Egypt. 00:13:34.84\00:13:36.18 He had to flee for his life for his life didn't he? And he had 00:13:36.21\00:13:39.41 to live in the land of Midian where he lived for 40 years. 00:13:39.48\00:13:43.25 That's a big change isn't it, from the palace to being a 00:13:43.28\00:13:46.96 shepherd and God worked on his heart during that time. And Anna 00:13:47.06\00:13:51.96 you're going to start our reading off today. We're in 00:13:51.99\00:13:56.90 Exodus 2 and I want you to read verses 23-25. Anna, thanks. 00:13:56.97\00:14:00.47 Now it happened in the process of time that the king of Egypt 00:14:00.54\00:14:04.94 died. Then the children of Israel groaned because of their 00:14:04.97\00:14:08.94 bondage and they cried out. And their cry came up to God 00:14:08.98\00:14:12.61 because of the bondage. So God heard their groaning and God 00:14:12.65\00:14:16.35 remembered His covenant with Abraham, with Isaac and with 00:14:16.38\00:14:20.99 Jacob. And God looked upon the children of Israel and God 00:14:21.02\00:14:25.63 acknowledged them. 00:14:25.66\00:14:27.20 Mmm. So the Israelites are still in slavery since Moses had fled 00:14:27.23\00:14:31.57 from Egypt and they're still crying out for help. And God 00:14:31.60\00:14:35.90 heard their cry. Dean, you're going to read our next reading, 00:14:35.94\00:14:40.21 Exodus 3:1-6. Can you do that for us? 00:14:40.28\00:14:43.14 Now Moses was tending the flock of Jethro, his father-in-law, 00:14:43.18\00:14:47.88 the priest of Midian. And he led the flock to the back of the 00:14:47.92\00:14:52.59 desert and came to Horeb the mountain of God. And the Angel 00:14:52.62\00:14:57.76 of the Lord appeared to him in a flame of fire in the midst of a 00:14:57.83\00:15:02.93 bush. So he looked and behold the bush was burning of fire but 00:15:02.96\00:15:08.04 the bush was not consumed. Then Moses said, I will now turn 00:15:08.07\00:15:13.58 aside and see this great sight, why the bush does not burn. So 00:15:13.61\00:15:17.98 when the Lord saw that he turned aside to look, God called to him 00:15:18.05\00:15:22.55 from the midst of the bush and said, Moses, Moses, and he said 00:15:22.58\00:15:27.72 Here I am. Then he said do not draw near this place. Take your 00:15:27.76\00:15:32.83 sandals off your feet for the place where you stand is 00:15:32.86\00:15:35.13 holy ground. Moreover He said I am the God of your father, the 00:15:35.20\00:15:41.64 God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob. 00:15:41.67\00:15:45.01 And Moses hid his face; for he was afraid to look upon God. 00:15:45.04\00:15:49.68 Thanks Dean So Moses was looking after the sheep comes across a 00:15:49.71\00:15:53.95 burning bush. It was burning with fire but it wasn't burning 00:15:54.02\00:15:58.42 up. The Bible says it was a great sight meaning it must have 00:15:58.45\00:16:02.86 looked pretty awesome and amazing. Moses had to have a 00:16:02.89\00:16:06.70 closer look. God speaks to Moses and tells him he must take off 00:16:06.73\00:16:10.90 his sandals because it's holy ground. Let's have a look at our 00:16:10.97\00:16:14.57 Torch Light, Mrs. White's writings to see what they shine 00:16:14.60\00:16:18.01 on this verse. Now Elijah, you're going to read that for us 00:16:18.04\00:16:21.31 again from the bottom of our Bible, of our Remnant Young 00:16:21.34\00:16:24.58 Scholar Study Bible. Can you read that please for us. 00:16:24.61\00:16:28.62 Humility and reverence should characterize the deportment of 00:16:28.65\00:16:33.46 all who come into the presence 00:16:33.49\00:16:35.02 of God. In the name of Jesus we 00:16:35.06\00:16:36.56 may come before him with confidence but we must not 00:16:36.59\00:16:39.49 approach Him with the boldness of presumption as though he were 00:16:39.53\00:16:44.17 on a level with ourselves. 00:16:44.20\00:16:46.53 Mmm. So God had asked Moses to approach Him in a certain way 00:16:46.60\00:16:51.01 to show reverence him. And Moses obeyed and took the 00:16:51.04\00:16:54.34 sandals off his feet and bowed down. Okay, let's see what God 00:16:54.41\00:16:59.58 God says to Moses. Kate, can you please read for us Exodus 3:7-8 00:16:59.61\00:17:04.79 and 10 please. 00:17:04.82\00:17:06.59 And the Lord said, I have surely seen the oppression of my people 00:17:06.62\00:17:12.06 who are in Egypt and have heard their cry because of their task 00:17:12.09\00:17:17.47 masters, for I know their sorrows. So I have come down 00:17:17.50\00:17:21.64 to deliver them from the hand of the Egyptians and bring out 00:17:21.67\00:17:26.21 from that land to a good large land to a land flowing with milk 00:17:26.24\00:17:30.35 and honey, to the place of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the 00:17:30.38\00:17:34.38 Amorites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the 00:17:34.42\00:17:40.16 Jebusites. Come now therefore and I will send you to Pharaoh 00:17:40.26\00:17:44.63 that you may bring my people the children of Israel out of 00:17:44.66\00:17:49.03 Egypt. 00:17:49.06\00:17:50.40 Mmm. So God has asked Moses to go down to Egypt and with God's 00:17:50.47\00:17:54.24 help bring the Israelites out of Egypt. But Moses was very 00:17:54.27\00:17:58.14 overwhelmed with God had commanded him to do. Let's look 00:17:58.17\00:18:02.01 what else God says to him. Ben can you please read Exodus 3:13. 00:18:02.04\00:18:07.22 Then Moses said to God, Indeed when I come to the children of 00:18:07.25\00:18:11.09 Israel and say to them the God of your fathers has sent me to 00:18:11.12\00:18:14.89 you and they say to me What is His name, what shall I say to 00:18:14.92\00:18:18.66 them. 00:18:18.69\00:18:20.03 Okay, now we're going to read Exodus 3:14 together. This is 00:18:20.10\00:18:23.77 our memory verse. Let's read that together. 00:18:23.80\00:18:25.50 And God said to Moses, I Am Who I Am. And he said what ye shall 00:18:25.53\00:18:33.68 say to the children of Israel I Am has sent me to you. 00:18:33.71\00:18:39.95 Wow! So God was very specific what God wanted Moses to tell 00:18:40.02\00:18:44.72 the children of Israel. Now Sarah, we're going to see what 00:18:44.75\00:18:49.46 else Moses asks of God. Can you please read Exodus 4:1-4. 00:18:49.49\00:18:54.03 Then Moses answered and said, But suppose they will not 00:18:54.10\00:18:58.50 believe me of listen to my voice Suppose they say, the Lord has 00:18:58.57\00:19:02.80 not appeared to you. The Lord said to him, What is that in 00:19:02.84\00:19:07.38 your hand? He said, A rod. And He said, Cast it on the ground. 00:19:07.41\00:19:11.58 So he cast it on the ground and it became a serpent and Moses 00:19:11.61\00:19:15.65 fled from it. Then the Lord said to Moses, Reach out your hand 00:19:15.68\00:19:19.22 and take it by the tail. And he reached out his hand and caught 00:19:19.25\00:19:22.76 it and it became a rod in his hand. 00:19:22.79\00:19:25.79 Mmm. So one of the signs is that Moses' rod changed into a snake 00:19:25.83\00:19:29.50 when it was thrown down onto the ground. And when he picked 00:19:29.53\00:19:32.93 it up from the tail it turns back into a rod again. Aunt 00:19:32.97\00:19:36.34 Cecily can you please read Exodus 4:6-9. 00:19:36.37\00:19:42.48 Furthermore the Lord said to him Now put your hand in your bosom 00:19:42.51\00:19:47.32 and he put his hand in his bosom and when he took it out behold 00:19:47.35\00:19:52.92 his hand was leprous like snow. And he said put your hand in 00:19:52.95\00:19:58.19 your bosom again. So he put his hand in his bosom again and drew 00:19:58.23\00:20:03.37 it out of his bosom and behold it was restored like his other 00:20:03.40\00:20:08.44 flesh. Then it will be if they do not believe you nor heed the 00:20:08.47\00:20:13.11 message of the first sign that they may believe the message of 00:20:13.14\00:20:18.01 the latter sign. And it shall be if they do not believe even 00:20:18.05\00:20:23.25 these two signs or listen to your voice that you shall take 00:20:23.28\00:20:28.42 water from the river and pour it on the dry land. The water that 00:20:28.46\00:20:34.40 you take from the river will become blood on the dry land. 00:20:34.43\00:20:39.00 Mmm. So God shows Moses two more signs he can use; the leprous 00:20:39.03\00:20:43.14 hand and the water that turned into blood. God is taking care 00:20:43.17\00:20:47.64 of Moses and equipping him for the job ahead. And even though 00:20:47.68\00:20:51.61 God does Moses' wonderful signs Moses is still overwhelmed at 00:20:51.65\00:20:55.78 the huge job ahead of him and he says something else to God. 00:20:55.82\00:20:59.89 Let's read that Anna in Exodus 4:10 and 12-14. 00:20:59.92\00:21:04.39 But Moses said to the Lord, Oh my Lord, I am not eloquent, 00:21:04.43\00:21:08.76 neither before nor since you have spoken to your servant, 00:21:08.80\00:21:14.04 but I and slow of speech and slow of tongue... Now therefore 00:21:14.07\00:21:18.91 go and I will be with your mouth and teach you what you shall 00:21:18.94\00:21:24.88 say. But he said, O my Lord, send by the hand of whomever 00:21:24.91\00:21:30.79 else you may send. So the anger of the Lord was kindled against 00:21:30.82\00:21:36.52 Moses and he said, Is not Aaron the Levite the Levite your 00:21:36.56\00:21:40.70 brother. I know that he can speak well and look he is also 00:21:40.73\00:21:45.00 coming out to meet you. When he sees you, he will be glad in 00:21:45.03\00:21:49.27 his heart. 00:21:49.30\00:21:50.64 Wow! So God provided again and he was going to send Aaron, 00:21:50.71\00:21:53.81 Moses' brother to help him. Moses had not lived in Egypt for 00:21:53.88\00:21:57.85 how many years? Forty. Forty years. So he was worried that he 00:21:57.88\00:22:01.85 was not able to speak the Egyptian language well enough. 00:22:01.88\00:22:05.32 So if we were to continue reading, God does send Aaron out 00:22:05.35\00:22:09.12 to meet with Moses and I think there was a very happy reunion. 00:22:09.16\00:22:12.96 Do you think? He hadn't seen his brother for 40 years. Moses told 00:22:12.99\00:22:16.77 everything to Aaron that God told him and they went together 00:22:16.80\00:22:20.14 to Egypt and assembled the elders of the Israelites to show 00:22:20.17\00:22:23.51 show them the signs, to tell them what God had spoken to 00:22:23.54\00:22:27.18 Moses. The Israelites believed them and bowed down and 00:22:27.21\00:22:30.78 worshipped God. Now Dean, we're going to see what happens next. 00:22:30.85\00:22:35.98 Can you please read our next bit of reading: Exodus 5:1-2, and 00:22:36.05\00:22:41.19 4-5 please. 00:22:41.22\00:22:42.72 Afterward Moses and Aaron went in and told Pharaoh, Thus says 00:22:42.79\00:22:46.49 the Lord God of Israel, Let my people go that they may hold a 00:22:46.53\00:22:50.27 feast to me in the wilderness. And Pharaoh said, Who is the 00:22:53.64\00:22:58.14 Lord that I should obey his voice and let Israel go. I do 00:22:58.17\00:23:02.64 not know the Lord nor will I let Israel go... Then the king of 00:23:02.71\00:23:07.22 king of Egypt said to them, Moses and Aaron, Why do you take 00:23:07.25\00:23:12.12 the people from their work. Get back to your labor and Pharaoh 00:23:12.15\00:23:16.52 said, Look the people of the land are many now and you make 00:23:16.56\00:23:20.93 them rest from their labor. 00:23:20.96\00:23:22.63 Thank you Gene. So Moses and Aaron had their first encounter 00:23:22.66\00:23:26.74 with the Pharaoh. Did the Pharaoh want to let the people 00:23:26.77\00:23:30.61 go? No. No, he was going to lose his entire work force. 00:23:30.64\00:23:34.38 But Pharaoh said something interesting, thus far, he says 00:23:34.41\00:23:38.25 you make them rest from their labor. While the Israelites had 00:23:38.28\00:23:42.48 been in Egypt all those 100s of years they had strayed away from 00:23:42.52\00:23:46.76 God and forgotten His requirements. Keeping the 00:23:46.79\00:23:49.02 Sabbath had been difficult while they were in slavery, but Moses 00:23:49.06\00:23:52.59 was teaching the people that they had to start keeping the 00:23:52.63\00:23:56.00 Sabbath again no matter what. Let's see what happens next when 00:23:56.03\00:23:59.30 Moses and Aaron go back to Pharaoh. Ben can you please read 00:23:59.33\00:24:02.57 for Exodus 7:10-15 for us. 00:24:02.60\00:24:06.24 So Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh and they did so just as 00:24:06.27\00:24:11.81 the Lord commanded and Aaron cast down his rod before Pharaoh 00:24:11.85\00:24:16.99 and before his servants and it became a serpent. But Pharaoh 00:24:17.02\00:24:21.69 also called the wise men and the sorcerers; so the magicians of 00:24:21.72\00:24:26.39 Egypt also did in like manner with their enchantments for 00:24:26.43\00:24:31.23 every man threw down his rod and they became serpents but Aaron's 00:24:31.30\00:24:36.04 rod; but Aaron's rod swallowed up all their rods. And Pharaoh's 00:24:36.07\00:24:39.47 heart grew hard and he did not heed them as the Lord had said. 00:24:39.51\00:24:43.01 So Moses and Aaron show Pharaoh the sign of the rod turning 00:24:43.04\00:24:46.55 into the snake. But Pharaoh wasn't too impressed and sends 00:24:46.58\00:24:49.88 for his wise men and magicians and they threw down their rods 00:24:49.95\00:24:53.49 and what happened to their rods? (Indistinguishable answers) 00:24:53.56\00:24:56.93 Yeah they did didn't they? But God's rod swallowed up their 00:24:56.96\00:25:00.80 counterfeit rods. Who was the counterfeit? Satan. God has 00:25:00.90\00:25:04.60 shown Pharaoh that He is more powerful than his magicians and 00:25:04.67\00:25:08.74 and his gods. Thank you boys and girls for joining us. Remember 00:25:08.77\00:25:12.84 that God loves you very much. He will deliver you from any 00:25:12.87\00:25:16.18 trials and problems you are having. You can trust His word. 00:25:16.21\00:25:20.02 We have a seven-day devotional available that goes into further 00:25:20.05\00:25:23.02 detail on what we have learned today.

One way we get to know him is to 00:25:56.25\00:26:00.76 read our Bibles. Our Bibles tell us how much God loves us. We 00:26:00.79\00:26:04.56 want to encourage you to read your Bibles not only on the 00:26:04.59\00:26:08.73 Sabbath day but every day. Auntie Nat can you tell us about 00:26:08.76\00:26:12.33 what we're going to study with the children next Sabbath? 00:26:12.37\00:26:17.01 Yes. Next Sabbath we're going to study in our Bibles what God 00:26:17.04\00:26:21.54 did to save the then-known world who was the true and 00:26:21.58\00:26:25.38 living God. It's one not to miss. Auntie Cecily shall we 00:26:25.41\00:26:29.18 go over our memory verse with the children? 00:26:29.22\00:26:31.25 Yes. Are you ready to do that? Let's have a look. 00:26:31.29\00:26:34.79 Exodus 3:14- And God said to Moses, I Am Who I Am and He said 00:26:34.86\00:26:42.86 Thus you shall say to the children of Israel, I Am has 00:26:42.90\00:26:48.34 sent me to you. 00:26:48.37\00:26:50.11 Children are you ready to sing our blessing song?
