0-5 Lesson Plan: The Gift of Salvation
Monday, June 15, 2020

“The Gift of Salvation” is a 20-minute 0–5 lesson plan on the gift of salvation that we can receive through Jesus.

ReadGod’s Gift of Salvation.” (If you would prefer, you can prepare the “Flannelgraph: God’s Gift of Salvation,” and use it to explain God’s gift of salvation.)

Ask the children to think about something wrong that they have done that they needed forgiveness for. Then discuss how Jesus knew that we would need forgiveness for our mistakes and wrongs, and this is why He came to earth and gave His life for us—so that we could receive that gift of forgiveness and salvation.

Read the devotional “Bright Pebbles: Only Jesus,” then together sing the song in the “Action” on the last page.

Explain how we can receive the gift of salvation by asking Jesus to come live in our hearts and lives. If your child has not yet received Jesus into his or her heart, talk about saying a prayer together. If your child wants to, then pray the following prayer together:

“Jesus, thank You for giving Your life for me and offering me Your gift of joy and love forever. I accept You into my life. Please help me learn more about Your loving ways and how to give joy to others too. Amen.”

Talk about how once we receive Jesus into our hearts and lives, He promises to always be with us.

Memorize the last part of Hebrews 13:5 (“God has said, ‘I will never leave you; I will never abandon you’”).

Listen toSalvation Is a Gift” and select one of the coloring pages to color.
