This Week at AWANA - March 9 Edition

This week we come to the end of the life of Moses and a transition in leadership for the Israelites. After 40 long years of wandering in the desert and the death of all the adults at the time of the exploration in Canaan from Numbers 13-14, God prepares Joshua to take over for Moses upon his death to lead the Israelites into the land of promise in fulfillment of what God spoke to Abraham in Genesis 12.

The Scripture passages we will use this week are from Deuteronomy 31, Deuteronomy 34, and Joshua 1.

The main ideas of the lesson will be:

• God keeps His promises.
• God cared for His chosen people throughout their wandering in the desert.
• We must choose everyday whether we will obey and be blessed or disobey and suffer the consequences.

Here is a lesson related to the death of Moses with coloring pages, questions about the lesson, and more.

Here is a lesson about Joshua being chosen to lead the Israelites from the same source.
