This Sunday, March 21, 2013, your preschooler will hear this story -
Hosanna for Jesus Matthew 21:1-11,14-16
Bible Story Brief -
• Jesus and His disciples were walking to Jerusalem.They came near to the town called Bethphage (BETH fuh jee). Jesus said to two of His disciples, “Go into town.You will find a mother donkey and her colt there. Bring them to Me. ”The two disciples found the donkeys and brought them to Jesus. They spread their coats on the young donkey. Jesus sat on the coats and began riding to Jerusalem.
• Along the way, people spread their coats on the road. Others cut branches from palm trees and spread them on the road. As Jesus passed by, the people praised Him.They shouted,“Hosanna! Hosanna!”
• In the city, people were asking, “Who is this man?” The crowds answered, “This is Jesus.”
• When Jesus came to the temple, He healed people who were blind and people who could not walk. Children in the temple called, “Hosanna! Hosanna!” to Jesus.
• Some men were upset when they saw the things Jesus did and heard the children praising Him. “Jesus,” they asked, “do You hear those children?”
• “Yes,” Jesus answered. “Haven’t you read what the Bible says? God planned for children to praise Him.” Jesus knew that the children were doing what God wanted them to do.
