Do you know that this is a great time to reflect on our 00:01:40.70\00:01:44.30 week and count the many blessings that God has sent us. 00:01:44.33\00:01:47.77 And Caleigh you have a blessing to share with us today. 00:01:47.80\00:01:52.71 Last night my mom's friend brought me and my sister some 00:01:52.74\00:01:57.61 clothes. 00:01:57.65\00:01:59.31 Fantastic! That's a lovely surprise isn't it. Yes. You'll 00:01:59.35\00:02:02.65 have fun trying those on. Oh that's a lovely blessing. Thank 00:02:02.68\00:02:06.02 you Caleigh. And Auntie Cecily, you have a blessing to share 00:02:06.05\00:02:09.32 with us as well about our wonderful God. 00:02:09.36\00:02:11.26 Yes. We've been spending a lot of time dwelling on God's 00:02:11.29\00:02:16.00 character and when we begin to understand who God is, it helps 00:02:16.03\00:02:20.67 us to build a strong relationship with Him. So can 00:02:20.70\00:02:25.11 you help me with some of the things that we've discussed. God 00:02:25.14\00:02:29.44 is our Deliverer, He is holy, He is the I Am. God is 00:02:29.48\00:02:37.49 compassionate, our Provider and God is love. God is a God of 00:02:37.55\00:02:44.39 order and a God of mercy and He's sacrificial and He's also 00:02:44.43\00:02:51.23 our Creator. Today I want to tell you that God is long 00:02:51.27\00:02:57.04 suffering, which means that God is very patient with us. Later 00:02:57.11\00:03:01.81 on in our Bible study we're going to learn just how long 00:03:01.84\00:03:05.78 suffering God is. God put up with the children of Israel's 00:03:05.81\00:03:09.85 murmuring and complaining and rebellion and you know in the 00:03:09.88\00:03:13.89 end God called them a stiff-necked people and they 00:03:13.92\00:03:17.69 wanted to do things their way instead of God's way. We can 00:03:17.73\00:03:21.76 be a bit like that sometimes can't we. They were continually 00:03:21.80\00:03:26.10 discontented with the way God chose to lead them and even with 00:03:26.13\00:03:30.41 the many miracles that He performed, they still doubted. 00:03:30.44\00:03:33.58 Second Peter tells us that God is long-suffering toward us not 00:03:33.64\00:03:39.08 wanting that anyone of us should perish but that we all come to 00:03:39.11\00:03:44.55 repentance. God is so patient. He waits on us to finally 00:03:44.59\00:03:49.09 surrender our will to Him so that we can repent of our sins. 00:03:49.12\00:03:52.89 God doesn't want any of His children to miss the opportunity 00:03:52.93\00:03:57.23 of living eternally in heaven with Him. He loves us so much. 00:03:57.27\00:04:01.54 So you remember God is long-suffering. 00:04:01.57\00:04:04.74 Thanks Auntie Cecily for sharing that with us. We have an awesome 00:04:04.77\00:04:08.81 God don't we? We do. Do you know another way that we can worship 00:04:08.84\00:04:12.81 God on the Sabbath is to worship Him in song and we have Pastor 00:04:12.85\00:04:16.79 Rick here again with us. Thanks Pastor Rick. 00:04:16.82\00:04:18.72 Hi Auntie Nat, great to be here 00:04:18.75\00:04:20.46 again. Hi children. Let's sing My Lord Knows the Way. 00:04:20.49\00:04:25.03 Pastor Rick can we please sing The Family of God? 00:05:38.33\00:05:42.30 We certainly can. 00:05:42.34\00:05:43.67 Sing it again. 00:06:10.03\00:06:12.00 Pastor Rick can we please sing Sing and Smile and Pray the 00:06:39.16\00:06:42.80 Clouds Away? 00:06:42.83\00:06:44.17 Yes we can. This is another lovely song. 00:06:44.20\00:06:46.60 Thanks Pastor Rick. We sang some of my favorite songs today. 00:07:30.35\00:07:34.48 We've discovered a blessing also with Dr. John this week. 00:07:34.52\00:07:38.65 Let's go and have a look at that 00:07:38.69\00:07:40.56 ¤ ¤Hello boys and girls. My name is Dr. John Hammond and welcome 00:07:40.62\00:07:47.53 to Sunnyside the Australian home of Mrs. Ellen G. White. I have 00:07:47.56\00:07:53.10 some interesting stories for you Just come inside with me. You're 00:07:53.13\00:07:58.64 going to like this. 00:07:58.67\00:08:02.08 Well boys and girls, here we are inside Sunnyside, the home of 00:08:02.11\00:08:05.61 Ellen White. We've got some interesting things to see. You 00:08:05.65\00:08:09.15 come with me children. Let's have a look inside. 00:08:09.18\00:08:17.26 ¤ ¤Hi guys. Welcome back to Sunnyside. We're inside Ellen 00:08:17.29\00:08:21.13 White's bedroom. Come over here. I've got something very 00:08:21.16\00:08:25.20 interesting to show you. Now inside the bedroom, we have the 00:08:25.23\00:08:29.27 bed of course. But she did so much writing, she had a 00:08:29.30\00:08:32.41 Davenport writing desk although she did more writing on her lap. 00:08:32.44\00:08:36.18 Matthew would you like to open and find the secret compartment. 00:08:36.21\00:08:39.91 Well you're pretty smart. You could put lots of things in 00:08:39.95\00:08:45.42 there. Now Elijah open that drawer. What's wrong, won't 00:08:45.45\00:08:51.79 open. I've got to go to this side and you see, nobody goes 00:08:51.83\00:08:57.57 that far. In there is a secret compartment. I wonder what's in 00:08:57.60\00:09:02.87 there; maybe some letters that Ellen White wrote, maybe some 00:09:02.90\00:09:08.14 knitting, I don't know. Over here, this is her dressing 00:09:08.18\00:09:12.35 table and in there in the open drawer is her dressing gown. 00:09:12.38\00:09:17.32 And every house has one important thing because they had 00:09:17.35\00:09:24.03 no bathrooms. And in here we have a potty and that's when 00:09:24.06\00:09:30.77 you couldn't go out to the bathroom in the middle of the 00:09:30.80\00:09:32.93 night. See that. Wow! would you like that job? No. And over here 00:09:32.97\00:09:40.24 I want to show you. Every morning you had to fill this 00:09:40.28\00:09:44.88 with the pitcher and you had a cold, cold bath. That's how they 00:09:44.91\00:09:51.02 bathed a hundred years ago. Okay guys, come with me. Now 00:09:51.05\00:09:58.09 this boys and girls is some of the original furniture. 00:09:58.16\00:10:00.56 This is called a 00:10:00.60\00:10:01.93 chase lounge or a day lounge, so if you wanted a little rest 00:10:01.96\00:10:05.00 during the day, very comfortable but if you want some exercise 00:10:05.03\00:10:08.77 Elijah you come over here and see if you can play this organ. 00:10:08.80\00:10:12.51 It was a pump organ. You couldn't turn it on though. 00:10:12.54\00:10:14.74 There's no switch. You pump really hard and start playing. 00:10:14.81\00:10:21.35 Quite a bit different from what it is today and you had to have 00:10:21.38\00:10:25.22 very good eyes to read that music. Now I'll come into the 00:10:25.25\00:10:30.13 workroom. It's through here. Come with me guys, this is the 00:10:30.16\00:10:34.43 workroom where lots of things happened. This was where Ellen's 00:10:34.46\00:10:38.37 helpers came and they would take her writing, her writing wasn't 00:10:38.40\00:10:42.50 too bad but the spelling wasn't always the best. There's one of 00:10:42.54\00:10:46.64 the original desks. See the pile of books that she had. 00:10:46.68\00:10:49.78 And here's a desk and they would work all night while she slept 00:10:49.84\00:10:54.48 because she used to get up at three o'clock in the morning and 00:10:54.52\00:10:59.12 she started writing again, so they had to work very, very 00:10:59.15\00:11:02.99 hard. Now I hope you've enjoyed this tour but before you go I 00:11:03.02\00:11:06.90 want you to sign your name so when your great grandchildren 00:11:06.93\00:11:10.37 come here they'll look at what great grandpa and great grandma 00:11:10.40\00:11:14.24 did. So you write your name right there. (Pause) There you 00:11:14.27\00:11:33.72 are and you have recorded your names in a little bit of history 00:11:33.76\00:11:37.89 and the next time we come back we're going to do the rest of 00:11:37.93\00:11:41.30 the tour and some of it will be outside. There's some very 00:11:41.33\00:11:44.67 interesting things outside of Sunnyside. 00:11:44.70\00:11:47.47 Hi boys and girls. Happy Sabbath I hope you have your Bibles 00:11:47.50\00:11:50.77 ready. It'll be good if you can follow along with us. Come and 00:11:50.81\00:11:53.88 join us. Sarah, you're going to say a prayer for us to open 00:11:53.91\00:11:56.95 our study. 00:11:56.98\00:11:58.31 Dear Father, thank you for our Bibles. Help us to understand 00:11:58.35\00:12:02.22 what we read today. Be especially with the children who 00:12:02.25\00:12:05.79 watching and joining us in our study. Bless them this day. 00:12:05.82\00:12:09.32 In Jesus' name. Amen. 00:12:09.36\00:12:11.23 Amen. Now Sarah, do you remember what we studied about last 00:12:11.26\00:12:14.03 Yes, how God wants us to be healthy for Him. 00:12:14.06\00:12:17.00 He does and we learnt in the Bible that God wants our bodies 00:12:17.03\00:12:21.40 to be the temple for Him doesn't he. Yeah. Okay so now we're 00:12:21.44\00:12:25.24 going to start in a new book of the Bible. We've studied Genesis 00:12:25.27\00:12:29.18 we've studied Exodus and we've studied Leviticus and now we're 00:12:29.21\00:12:33.08 going to a new book and it's called Numbers. And Ella can you 00:12:33.11\00:12:36.48 tell us from our Remnant Young Scholar Study Bible who wrote 00:12:36.52\00:12:39.85 the book of Numbers? 00:12:39.89\00:12:41.22 Moses did. 00:12:41.26\00:12:42.59 He did and how many years does the book of Numbers cover? 39 00:12:42.62\00:12:46.70 Thirty-nine years, it does. Now we're going to start in the book 00:12:46.73\00:12:51.20 of numbers in chapter three. Nick, you've got our next 00:12:51.23\00:12:55.14 reading. Numbers 3:5-8 00:12:55.17\00:12:57.77 And the Lord spoke to Moses saying, Bring the tribe of Levi 00:12:57.84\00:13:01.81 near and present them before Aaron the priest that they may 00:13:01.84\00:13:05.95 serve him. And they shall attend to his needs and the needs of 00:13:05.98\00:13:10.39 the whole congregation before the tabernacle of meeting, do 00:13:10.42\00:13:14.69 the work of the tabernacle. Also they shall attend to the 00:13:14.72\00:13:18.93 furnishings of the tabernacle of meeting and to the needs of the 00:13:18.99\00:13:22.53 children of Israel to do the work of the tabernacle. 00:13:22.56\00:13:26.50 So God is now officially making known that the Levites will now 00:13:26.53\00:13:30.41 be attending Aaron and his two sons to the care of the 00:13:30.44\00:13:33.34 sanctuary. No other person from any other tribe was allowed to 00:13:33.38\00:13:38.51 do this. Dean you're going to read for us from Numbers 9:18. 00:13:38.55\00:13:43.75 At the command of the Lord the children of Israel would journey 00:13:43.79\00:13:48.26 and at the command of the Lord they would camp. As long as the 00:13:48.29\00:13:52.76 cloud stayed above the tabernacle they remained 00:13:52.79\00:13:55.63 encamped. 00:13:55.66\00:13:57.00 So when the cloud stood still over the tabernacle, the 00:13:57.03\00:13:59.77 children of Israel stayed where they were, but when that cloud 00:13:59.80\00:14:02.90 lifted off from the tabernacle and lifted high above the 00:14:02.94\00:14:06.37 sanctuary, the Israelites knew it was time to go. Anna, can you 00:14:06.41\00:14:10.98 read for us Numbers 10:1-2 please. 00:14:11.01\00:14:14.35 And the Lord spoke to Moses saying, make two silver trumpets 00:14:14.38\00:14:18.95 for yourself. You shall make them of hammered work. You shall 00:14:18.99\00:14:23.53 use them for calling the congregation and for directing 00:14:23.56\00:14:27.86 the movement of the camps. 00:14:27.90\00:14:31.03 So did the children of Israel have mobile phones _ or loud 00:14:31.07\00:14:35.17 speakers? No. The method of communication that God chose for 00:14:35.20\00:14:39.27 directing over one million people through Moses was the 00:14:39.31\00:14:43.04 sound of trumpets. The children of Israel learned that when a 00:14:43.08\00:14:47.02 trumpet gave a certain sound it was a particular instruction for 00:14:47.05\00:14:50.95 them to follow. Ben you're going to read for us 00:14:50.99\00:14:53.89 Numbers 10:35-36 please. 00:14:53.92\00:14:57.29 So it was whenever the ark set out that Moses said, Rise up O 00:14:57.33\00:15:01.60 Lord. Let your enemies be scattered and let those who hate 00:15:01.63\00:15:05.83 you flee before you. And when it rested, he said, Return O Lord 00:15:05.90\00:15:10.74 to the many thousands of Israel. 00:15:10.77\00:15:13.01 So packing up camp and setting up camp was very special. There 00:15:13.04\00:15:18.01 was a particular procedure that Moses followed every time. Okay 00:15:18.08\00:15:22.35 let's see what happens after a few days. Sarah can you please 00:15:22.38\00:15:26.65 read Numbers 11:1-3. 00:15:26.69\00:15:29.82 Now when the people complained it displeased the Lord for the 00:15:29.86\00:15:34.00 Lord heard it and His anger was aroused. So the fire of the Lord 00:15:34.03\00:15:38.13 burned among them and consumed some in the outskirts of the 00:15:38.17\00:15:43.10 camp. Then the people cried out to Moses and when Moses prayed 00:15:43.14\00:15:48.04 to the Lord, the fire was quenched. So he called the name 00:15:48.08\00:15:52.01 of the place Taberah because the fire of the Lord had burned 00:15:52.05\00:15:55.98 among them. 00:15:56.02\00:15:57.35 Mmm. So I'm going to get Aunt Cecily to point to where they 00:15:57.39\00:16:01.42 were on the map, right down there at Mount Sinai. They had 00:16:01.46\00:16:05.83 been there for a whole year. So after three days of traveling 00:16:05.89\00:16:09.76 through the wilderness the people began to complain. They 00:16:09.80\00:16:13.67 were not happy about the discomforts of traveling. 00:16:13.70\00:16:16.40 Remember they hadn't traveled for a year up until this time. 00:16:16.44\00:16:20.21 The Lord, we just read, was angry. Now up until this time 00:16:20.24\00:16:23.08 God had been patient with their whining because they didn't 00:16:23.11\00:16:26.28 because they didn't know any better. God had pity on them. 00:16:26.31\00:16:29.75 But now they knew better than to complain. They had witnessed 00:16:29.78\00:16:33.49 His great miracles, power and mercies so their murmuring and 00:16:33.52\00:16:37.33 complaining was now considered rebellion and unfortunately God 00:16:37.36\00:16:41.20 burnt up the guiltiest of the complainers. Aunt Cecily you're 00:16:41.23\00:16:45.00 going to read for us Numbers 11:4-6. 00:16:45.03\00:16:48.00 Now the mixed multitude who were among them yielded to intense 00:16:48.07\00:16:53.41 craving. So the children of Israel also wept again and said 00:16:53.44\00:16:58.75 Who will give us meat to eat. We remember the fish which we 00:16:58.81\00:17:04.09 ate freely in Egypt, the cucumbers, the melons, the 00:17:04.12\00:17:07.82 leeks, the onions and the garlic But not our whole being is dried 00:17:07.89\00:17:13.43 up. There is nothing at all except this manna before our 00:17:13.46\00:17:17.63 eyes. Mmm. Now the mixed multitude 00:17:17.67\00:17:21.04 were Egyptians who wanted to leave Egypt with the Israelites. 00:17:21.07\00:17:24.67 They got caught up in the Exodus from reasons of being curious or 00:17:24.71\00:17:28.28 just wanting to escape the plagues. They were partially 00:17:28.31\00:17:31.75 converted, partially on the side of God, but not fully committed 00:17:31.81\00:17:36.35 and were a constant problem to the children of Israel. 00:17:36.38\00:17:39.65 Ella, you've got our next verse that you're going to read. 00:17:39.69\00:17:42.96 Numbers 11:10 and 13-14. 00:17:42.99\00:17:45.73 Then Moses heard the people weeping throughout their 00:17:45.76\00:17:48.96 families, everyone at the door of his tent; and the anger of 00:17:49.00\00:17:53.13 the Lord was greatly aroused. Moses also was displeased. Where 00:17:53.17\00:17:57.34 am I get the meat to give to all these people? For they weep all 00:17:57.37\00:18:01.51 over me saying, Give us meat that we may eat. I am not able 00:18:01.54\00:18:05.45 to bear all these people, O Lord because the burden is too 00:18:05.51\00:18:09.38 heavy for me. 00:18:09.42\00:18:10.79 Mmm. So Moses is feeling very burdened down by the complaining 00:18:10.85\00:18:15.02 of the people. He's overwhelmed. Let's see what God does. Nick, 00:18:15.06\00:18:19.23 you've got our next reading: Numbers 11:16-17. 00:18:19.26\00:18:22.90 So the Lord said to Moses, Gather to Me 70 men of the 00:18:22.93\00:18:28.37 elders of Israel whom you know to be the elders of the people 00:18:28.40\00:18:32.44 and officers over them. Bring them to the tabernacle of 00:18:32.47\00:18:36.08 meeting that they may stand there with you. Then I will come 00:18:36.11\00:18:40.98 down and talk with you there. I will take of the Spirit that 00:18:41.02\00:18:44.82 is upon you and I will put the same upon them and they shall 00:18:44.85\00:18:48.66 bear the burden of the people with you that you may not bear 00:18:48.69\00:18:52.46 it yourself alone. 00:18:52.49\00:18:53.93 So God is telling Moses to gather 70 elders to help him 00:18:53.96\00:18:58.00 with the burdens of managing a whole encampment. God is very 00:18:58.03\00:19:03.51 good. Dean, can you please read Numbers 11:18-20 for us. 00:19:03.54\00:19:08.88 Then you shall say to the people consecrate yourselves for 00:19:08.94\00:19:14.22 tomorrow and you shall eat meat for you have wept in the hearing 00:19:14.25\00:19:18.05 of the Lord saying, Who will give us meat to eat for it was 00:19:18.09\00:19:22.66 well with us in Egypt. Therefore the Lord will give you meat and 00:19:22.69\00:19:27.66 you shall eat. You shall eat not one day, nor two days, nor five 00:19:27.70\00:19:32.47 days, nor ten days, nor 20 days but for a whole month until it 00:19:32.50\00:19:36.91 comes out of 00:19:36.94\00:19:38.27 your nostrils and becomes loathsome to you, because you 00:19:38.31\00:19:40.94 have despised the Lord who is among you and you have wept 00:19:40.98\00:19:45.51 before Him saying, Why did we ever come up out of Egypt? 00:19:45.55\00:19:49.98 Dear me. So God sent them quail and some ate so much of it, they 00:19:50.05\00:19:55.36 made themselves sick with fever and died. God knows best. He 00:19:55.39\00:20:00.26 wants the people to be a happy, healthy, holy people for Him. 00:20:00.30\00:20:04.73 He provided manna, angels food, imaging eating angels food, for 00:20:04.77\00:20:08.60 them to eat. But the people complained and craved after the 00:20:08.64\00:20:12.74 fleshpots of Egypt. Okay, let's continue to read about the 00:20:12.77\00:20:16.81 Israelites journey. Anna, could you please read Numbers 12:1-5. 00:20:16.85\00:20:21.22 Then Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses because of the 00:20:21.25\00:20:26.09 the Ethiopian woman he had married, for he had married an 00:20:26.12\00:20:30.89 Ethiopian woman. So they said, Has the Lord indeed spoken only 00:20:30.93\00:20:36.00 through Moses? Has He not spoken through us also? And the Lord 00:20:36.03\00:20:40.94 heard it. Now the man Moses was very humble, more than all men 00:20:40.97\00:20:45.87 who were on the face of the earth. Suddenly the Lord said 00:20:45.91\00:20:50.28 to Moses, Aaron and Miriam. Come out, you three, to the 00:20:50.35\00:20:55.28 tabernacle of meeting. So the three came out. Then the Lord 00:20:55.32\00:20:59.65 came down in the pillar of cloud and stood in the door of the 00:20:59.69\00:21:04.06 tabernacle and called to Aaron and Miriam and they both went 00:21:04.09\00:21:08.43 forward. 00:21:08.46\00:21:09.80 So Miriam followed by Aaron complained and were jealous that 00:21:09.83\00:21:14.07 Moses had now 70 elders to help him. And they were jealous 00:21:14.10\00:21:19.07 because they weren't consulted. So in their jealousy they threw 00:21:19.14\00:21:22.91 accusation at Moses about his wife. Okay Ben can you read 00:21:22.94\00:21:29.12 Numbers 12:6-9. 00:21:29.15\00:21:31.59 Then He said, Hear now my words if there is a prophet among you, 00:21:31.62\00:21:36.66 I the Lord make myself known to him in a vision. I speak to him 00:21:36.69\00:21:41.73 in a dream. Not so with my servant Moses. He is faithful 00:21:41.76\00:21:45.87 in all My house. I speak with him face to face, even plainly 00:21:45.90\00:21:51.11 and not in dark sayings. And he sees the form of the Lord. Why 00:21:51.17\00:21:56.01 then were you not afraid to speak against my servant Moses? 00:21:56.04\00:21:59.61 So the anger of the Lord was aroused against them and he 00:21:59.65\00:22:03.22 departed. 00:22:03.25\00:22:04.59 Wow. So God is speaking to Miriam and Aaron and telling 00:22:04.62\00:22:07.42 them that Moses is His chosen servant and the decision for the 00:22:07.46\00:22:12.56 70 elders to help him was the right one to make. God was 00:22:12.59\00:22:16.60 basically affirming Moses' leadership. Sarah, can you 00:22:16.63\00:22:20.64 please read Numbers 12:10-11 and 13. 00:22:20.67\00:22:23.87 And when the cloud departed from the tabernacle, suddenly Miriam 00:22:23.91\00:22:28.61 became leprous, as white as snow. Then Aaron turned toward 00:22:28.64\00:22:33.55 Miriam and there she was, a leper. So Aaron said to Moses, 00:22:33.58\00:22:38.42 O my lord please don't lay this sin on us in which we have done 00:22:38.45\00:22:42.82 foolishly and in which we have sinned. So Moses cried out to 00:22:42.86\00:22:47.23 the Lord saying, Please heal her, O God I pray. 00:22:47.26\00:22:51.80 Let's have a look at Mrs. White's writings to see what 00:22:51.83\00:22:55.24 they shine on these verses we have read. Ben can you read our 00:22:55.27\00:22:58.44 Torch Light for us please. It will explain it a bit more. 00:22:58.47\00:23:01.64 If Miriam's envy and 00:23:01.68\00:23:06.82 dissatisfaction had not been 00:23:06.85\00:23:08.72 severely rebuked, it would have resulted in great evil. It was 00:23:08.75\00:23:13.66 envy that first caused discord in heaven and its indulgence 00:23:13.69\00:23:18.53 has wrought untold evil among men. 00:23:18.56\00:23:21.26 Thank you Ben. So God does not like envy and jealousy because 00:23:21.33\00:23:25.73 that's where it all started in heaven. Remember way back when 00:23:25.77\00:23:30.07 we studied about Satan. Satan was jealous of Christ's position 00:23:30.11\00:23:34.51 Because of Aaron and Miriam's high positions, they should 00:23:34.54\00:23:37.61 have known better. 00:23:37.65\00:23:38.98 Through this experience Miriam and Aaron were humbled and both 00:23:39.01\00:23:43.32 repented. Moses their brother interceded and God healed Miriam 00:23:43.35\00:23:47.29 but the consequence of her sin was that she had to be shut out 00:23:47.32\00:23:51.23 of the camp seven days. Let's look at our memory verse in 00:23:51.26\00:23:58.97 James 3:16 and let's read that together. You got that? 00:23:59.00\00:24:06.64 For where envy and self-seeking exist confusion and every evil 00:24:06.68\00:24:12.98 thing are there. 00:24:13.01\00:24:14.52 So God knows what envy and jealousy does. He has 00:24:14.58\00:24:18.75 experienced it firsthand. God wants us to trust Him as He 00:24:18.79\00:24:23.36 knows best. He can see the end from the beginning. Do you think 00:24:23.39\00:24:27.60 the Israelites did a lot of complaining? Yes. They sure did. 00:24:27.66\00:24:31.43 We all complain. We can be a bit complaining too at times can't 00:24:31.47\00:24:35.87 we? We need to learn to trust God more. Thanks boys and girls 00:24:35.90\00:24:39.81 for joining us today. I think the word trust is a good word 00:24:39.84\00:24:43.55 to explain our study today.

God has a plan for your life and if you trust Him He'll lead 00:25:22.82\00:25:27.56 you in the way that is just right for you. When we study 00:25:27.59\00:25:31.76 out Bibles, God can reveal His will for our lives. Sabbath's a 00:25:31.79\00:25:36.03 great time to spend reading our Bibles. But God also wants us to 00:25:36.06\00:25:40.27 read our Bibles every day. Auntie Nat can you tell us 00:25:40.30\00:25:44.04 about what we're going to study next week. 00:25:44.07\00:25:45.94 Yes. We have a very intriguing study next week. Children have 00:25:45.97\00:25:49.98 a look at your Bibles and see if you can find something about 00:25:50.01\00:25:53.52 spies, because that's what we're going to study about next week. 00:25:53.55\00:25:57.05 Auntie Cecily shall we go over our memory verse that we 00:25:57.09\00:25:59.99 learnt in our Bible study today. 00:26:00.02\00:26:01.49 Yes. Do you want to read that through together children? 00:26:01.52\00:26:03.73 James 3:16-For where envy and self-seeking exist confusion and 00:26:03.76\00:26:13.20 every evil thing are there. 00:26:13.23\00:26:16.57 That's something to think about isn't it.
