THE GOSPEL PROJECT FOR KIDS, Sundays @ 9:30am
Unit Description:
Israel rejected God as their leader, and they demanded a king. God rejected Saul, Israel’s first king, and chose David to be king. Through David’s family, God brought forth the last King—the Redeemer Jesus Christ. Jesus is the perfect King who brings peace and salvation to the world.
Key Passage: Psalm 47:7-8
Big Picture Question: Who is our King? Jesus is our King forever, and He rules over the world.
Bible Story: David Was Anointed and Fought Goliath
Bible Passage: 1 Samuel 16–17
Main Point: God gave David power to defeat Goliath.
As we continue our journey through the big story of the Bible this week, we come to God
anointing David to replace Saul as king and David’s victory over the giant Goliath. While
Saul looked the part to be king, David didn’t look like a strong warrior and seemed to be
no match for the Philistine champion. But God gave David power and he defeated
Goliath.
God used this victory to position David as the next king and also to show us a picture of
Jesus. When Jesus came to earth, He didn’t look like a strong warrior either. But Jesus
showed His power when He died on the cross and rose again to defeat death.
Help your kids see the connection between David and Jesus. Talk about how God
defeated Israel’s enemy of Goliath and our greater enemy of sin and death. Guide your
kids to see that David doesn’t primarily teach us to be brave, but to trust in Jesus
instead.
