The Story of Moses and the Plagues

Because we had a special day of prayer last week, we skipped the beginning of Moses' story.  Here is a video that will teach you about that and also talk about the plagues.  

If you want to see the story of Moses from the beginning, use this link:

If you would like to look at just the part of Moses' life that has to do with the first nine plagues, look at the movie by clicking on this link. You'll have to stop when they start talking about the 10th plague, which will be killing the first born sons.
And here's a shorter version of the whole story:

One more, something made by some children to review the plagues and Pharaoh's response to them.  There's a bit of a surprise joke at the end.  But this might give you some ideas.  How would you tell the story?


Help with Memory Verses

Ephesians 1:4

Here is the song for this verse




Deuteronomy 5:6 

One thing to think about as we consider this story is that even though we were never slaves in Egypt, who experienced God's deliverance by walking through the Red Sea, it is still a story that tells us something about the way God acts in our own lives.  This song reviews the memory verse, but also talks about what God does for you and me.




Galatians 5:1

This verse has been a favorite of mine for a very long time.  It is one of the first Bible verses I ever wrote a song for, though that was a different version of the Bible, and a pretty long time ago.  This song is new, just for you folks.

Why do you think we chose this verse for you to memorize with this week's lesson?

When Moses talked to Pharaoh, it made Pharaoh very angry.
When Pharaoh got angry he made life even worse for the Israelites.
God did a lot of terrible and scary things to the Egyptians.  One of them was turning their water into blood.
Another scary thing that God did was filling the land with frogs.
