6.       Bible Story:  Peter and the Crippled Man (Acts 3)

Memory work: Rejoice in the Lord always.  I will say it again: Rejoice!  Philippians 4:4

·         Materials: Tube puppet pictures of Peter and the Crippled Man in your packet for letter Jj week.  Cut the pictures apart for easy use.  Tape them to a window or tray while telling the story.  The * will help you know when to move or add figures.

·            We’ve already met some of Jesus’ special helpers.  Remember Peter and John?*  One day Peter and John walking to the temple-church.*

·              There sitting by the temple-church was a man* who could not walk.  Every day he sat by the temple-church and talked to the people who walked by on their way to worship.  He would ask them to give him some money.

·              When Peter and John walked by,* he asked them for some money too.  Peter and John stopped and looked at the man.  Peter talked to him.  Peter said, “I don’t have any money.”

·              The man got a sad look on his face.  Then Peter said, “I have something better for you.”  The man thought to himself, What could be better than money?  Peter took hold of the man’s hand.  Peter said, “Jesus can make your legs and feet strong.  In the name of Jesus, get up and walk.” 

·              And he did.  The man who could not walk stood up.*  Exchange the crippled man for the rejoicing man.  Jesus made his legs and feet strong.  They were so strong he could run and jump and jump and run. *  The man was running and jumping and shouting,  “Thank You, Jesus!  Thank You, Jesus! “

·              The people inside the temple-church were very surprised.  They stared at the man.  They thought, Isn’t this the man who sits outside the temple-church asking for money?  They stared at Peter and John, wondering how Peter and John were able to make the man walk.

·              Peter said, “We didn’t make this man walk.  Jesus did.  You remember Jesus.  Jesus is the Savior God promised to send.  Jesus came to suffer and die to take away all your sins.  God will help you to be sorry for the bad things you do.  God will forgive you.  You can be God’s joyful, forgiven children too.

·              “See how strong God is,” Peter said.  “He made this man walk again.  He will help you too.”  Many people believed Jesus was their Savior.  They became God’s joyful forgiven people.

·         Review Questions:  What gave Peter and John joy?  Show the man who could not walk.  Ask, What gave this man joy?  What gave the people in the temple-church joy?  What gives us joy?  Yes, we have joy in Jesus.  We have joy in knowing that Jesus loves us—no matter what—and that He died for us and came alive.

Prayer:  Dear God, help us rejoice knowing that we are Your forgiven children.  In Jesus name we pray.  Amen.
