 Happy Sabbath church, happy Sabbath children, happy Sabbath children, how many of you remember what we learnt about last Sabbath lately, the law of God and who told this story? Josiah and teacher Feliz. Josiah and teacher Feliz, thank you very much. This Sabbath church, the story will be told by Cradle B, courtesy of teacher James Sharon and Skylar. So today is a continuation of last Sabbath which was a fundamental belief number 19. Say number 19. Number 19 which is the law of God. So before we start I'll invite Skylar to pray. Skylar please pray for us. Amen. Thank you very much Skylar. So children, I would like us to turn to our bibles to the book of Psalms chapter 19 verse 7. Psalms 19 verse 7. Teacher James do you want to read for us? And it says the law of the Lord is perfect. Converting the soul, the testimony of the Lord is sure making wise the simple. Children, do you know about a man called Samson? Skylar do you know about Samson? What is about Samson? What about him? Strong. Samson was began. Who else do you know is strong? Who else do you know who is strong? Liar. Who else? The boy. A boy? Yeah, a boy is a strong. I was waiting for you to say daddy. Daddy is a strong. Your daddy is strong. Who else is strong? Goliath. Goliath. Guys, these kids are three and they know Goliath and their daddy is a strong. So we will sing. My God is so big, so strong and so mighty. There's nothing my God cannot do for you. I can't hear you church. My God is so big, so strong and so mighty. There's nothing my God cannot do for you. The mountains are, the rivers are, the stars are handiwork too. Let's teach the chart cradle B. My God is so big, so strong and so mighty. There's nothing my God cannot do for you. My God is so big, so strong and so mighty. There's nothing my God cannot do for you. The mountains are, the rivers are, the stars are handiwork too. My God is so big, so strong and so mighty. There's nothing my God cannot do for you. So tisha James, please tell us about the strongest man called Samson and what God did for the strongest man. Thank you. Good morning again children. Good morning parents. Now there's something which teacher Sharon did not say. Samson was the strongest man and he was also there. Weakest man. It's a paradox. It's called a paradox. Two sides of a coin. So Samson was strong. When was he strong? When he obeyed God. And remember what we've read in Samson 19 verse 7, the law of the Lord is perfect. So the law guides us to live well. Like at home you have rules. Do we have rules at home children? And when you obey the rules, what happens? There are no tears. But if you disobey, sometimes it's boko. So the law of God helps us to be good friends with God. And God gave rules to the children of Israel. When Samson was born, you remember Samson's mommy was not able to give birth and an angel came to talk to Samson's mommy. And the angel told Samson's mommy something and daddy something. They are called the Nazarite vows. Is there any parent here who knows one of the vows which Samson knows to follow? Any parent? They were not to cut their hair. He was not meant to cut his hair. So if he didn't cut his hair, how did his hair look? Was it shaggy? Was it long? We believe it was long. We don't know maybe it was shaggy. But it was long hair. He had long hair. The other vows he was to do, he was not meant to drink what? What else was he not meant to do? To touch dead bodies. Ah, not to touch dead bodies or anything that was unclean. As long as Samson followed those rules, he would be good friends with God. You remember last week we did the Ten Commandments which tells us what to do and what not to do as long as you do them your friends with God. And following God's rules it demonstrates our friendship and our trust in God. But did Samson always follow the rules of God? No. So the rules also show us what is right from wrong. Now when Samson grew up he wanted to get, he saw a girl somewhere and he told his parents he wants to get married. But the girl he went and saw was from the enemies of Israel. What are the enemies called? What are the enemies called parents? Philistines. They used to fight a lot. And what God had told them is that they should never ever ever marry from the Philistines. So that is one rule of God that Samson broke. And when he broke it, what happened? He went and then ultimately he suffered. And when he realized that he had suffered, what did he do? What did he do at the end? He apologized. He told God, I am sorry. So God's rules help us to recognize what is good from what is bad. If there was no rule Samson could have married anybody. That's what God's rules do. Now you remember I said at the end Samson got into a big problem. Who knows what problem he got into? Anybody? Any parents? What rule did Samson break? He let his hair be cut. Yes, he let his hair be cut. Remember the first rule which God said is his hair should never be cut? And the second thing he broke he went and married from the Philistines. Now the Philistines, I forgot to tell you. You remember we said Samson was very strong. So Samson every time they will be fight with the Philistines, he will go and beat all of the Philistines. So they are always looking for a way to bring him down. And because sometimes Samson was disobedient, they found a way and they cut his hair. Immediately they cut his hair. What happened? His strength went and it became very weak. So the bad people caught him and they went around showing him to everybody. Saying look the person who God was using look he has no strength. So the law of God also points us to salvation. Because despite of Samson's mistakes, Samson made many mistakes. But still God gives us an opportunity to confess. And when we confess, what does he do? He forgives us. Did Samson confess? But when did he confess? He confessed when he was put in the temple. He was put in the temple and he was put between two pillars. And he prayed to God and said God please forgive me. And now that I am here, give me strength one more time. One more time so that I can destroy all of these Philistines. And what did God do? He gave him strength. Imagine this whole church, the building was bigger than this church. It was a very big building. And God gave Samson enough strength that he pushed and pushed and pushed on the pillars and the pillars broke. And the whole building came tumbling down. So that is how salvation came upon Samson. And also the law of God shows us about dependence on God. Whenever we have big problems, are we ever scared children? Are we ever scared? What are we scared of? Any child, what are we scared of? Some people are scared of snakes, somebody else? We are scared of spiders. Spiders? What else are we scared of? We are scared of monsters. Wow, we are scared of scary things. Okay, but now whenever we are scared, we can always depend on God. So when you are scared, you pray, dear Jesus, please help me not to be scared of. Yes, Kaila, you are scared of something. Okay, to leave the door open when you are going to sleep. Yes, that is why we pray for God to give us courage so that we are not scared. So it teaches us that we can always trust in God. When Samson depended on God, God always gave him strength. So whenever there is a time when Samson was attacked by a lion, somebody is scared of spiders. Now imagine now a lion attacked Samson and Samson depended on God. And what did Samson do to the lion? He beat it and he destroyed it. So whenever we depend on God, he gives us strength. Even at the end, Samson depended on God to give him strength one more time and he was able to destroy the enemies. So we sing one more song about Jesus being with us in the vessel. We sing with Jesus in the vessel. With Jesus in the vessel like a smile at the storm, smile at the storm, smile at the storm. With Jesus in the vessel we can smile at the storm as we go sailing home. Sailing home. Sailing home. With Jesus in the vessel we can smile at the storm as we go sailing home. Thank you very much teacher James and thank you Kedrog B.
