00:02 Hello There! Happy Sabbath!
00:03 Come on in! We're about to meet 00:05 with the King! 00:51 Hello, I'm Aunty Nat, and I'm Aunty Cecily! 00:54 We're so glad you have decided to join us for our worship. 00:57 Aunty Cecily, we have some children to say hello to 01:00 who join our worship time very regularly. 01:03 Yes, I'd like to say a BIG HELLO to Brunhilda and Walter 01:06 from South Africa... HELLO! Hi! Hello! 01:11 Wow, thanks Brunhilda and Walter for sending us 01:13 that amazing picture! 01:15 We definitely don't have giraffes in our country, 01:18 except in a zoo, but we do have bunnies, 01:21 and we can't forget to say hello to Teddy. 01:24 It's do good to have you back on the couch with us Teddy. 01:27 You're such a good boy. 01:28 Aunty Cecily, can you please say a prayer for us 01:30 to open our worship time? 01:32 Yes, I'd love to... Father in heaven, 01:35 Thank You so much for another Sabbath day. 01:37 Thank You for keeping us safe through the week, 01:40 and please bless all the children who are joining us 01:43 in worship today. In Jesus name... Amen, Amen. 01:47 Now Aunty Cecily, you have some amazing things 01:50 to share with us over the coming months... 01:52 Something about keys that will help us get ready 01:56 for the second coming of Jesus! 01:58 Yes, I'm so excited about all the wonderful things 02:01 we have to share. 02:03 Do you like getting gifts? Yes. 02:07 Now if I was to give you this gift and offer it to you, 02:11 but you refuse to accept it, will the gift become yours? 02:15 No. 02:16 So you'd have to accept this gift in order for this 02:19 gift to become yours, is that right? Yes. Okay. 02:23 So Jesus offers us some gifts to help us to get to heaven, 02:27 but we have to accept them and use them. 02:30 Mia, can you open our gift box and tell us what's inside? 02:34 A key. 02:36 Oh, and what does a key do? 02:37 Unlock a door. 02:39 Yes, that's right. 02:41 Now there's a label on the key, what does that label 02:43 tell us what the key is for? 02:45 Accept God's love. 02:47 Yes - so accepting God's love is like a key 02:50 that opens the door to heaven. 02:53 We've learned a lot about the love of God 02:55 during our worship times together. 02:57 Now can you turn the key tag over and tell us 03:00 what the text is? 03:01 John 3:16. Thanks Mia. 03:04 Matthew, could you please read John 3:16 for us from the Bible? 03:09 "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten 03:13 Son, that whoever believes in Him, shall not perish, 03:15 but have everlasting life." Thanks Matthew. 03:18 What a beautiful promise! 03:20 God loved us so much that He sent the most wonderful 03:24 Gift in the life and sacrifice of Jesus on our behalf, 03:28 so that we can have eternal life. 03:30 Romans 6:23 says that..."The wages of sin is death, 03:36 but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." 03:41 He couldn't have given us any greater gift, 03:44 but we have to accept that gift of eternal life. 03:48 The gift of eternal life is free. 03:50 We can't earn it but there are some things that God 03:54 needs us to do to prepare for His return. 03:57 These keys that we are going to talk about over 04:00 the coming weeks, will help us to unlock the treasures 04:04 of heaven to help us get ready for Jesus' return. 04:08 They are our keys to the kingdom. 04:11 Now each week, we will hang our keys on the wall 04:14 over there by the door as a reminder. 04:17 You know, everything God asks us to do, He promises us 04:22 the power to do it. 04:24 He only asks us to do things that are good for us. 04:28 Later in our Bible study, we're going to learn more about 04:32 King David who accepted God's love and offer of salvation, 04:37 and how God blessed his life and looked after him. 04:40 So as we spend time with the Kingly Sabbath, 04:43 let's ask God to give us willing hearts to accept 04:47 His great gift of love. 04:49 Oh, that's beautiful, thank you 04:51 Aunty Cecily, for sharing that with us. 04:52 I'm already looking forward to finding out 04:55 what next week's key is. 04:57 I think it might be time to praise God in song, 05:00 and we have Braedan here with us. 05:02 Thanks so much, Braedan, for coming and sharing 05:04 your music ability with us. Thanks Aunty Net. 05:06 Hi boys and girls! 05:08 Let's sing, "We Will Gather to Meet With the King" 05:48 Braedan, can we play, "Sing, The King has a 05:50 Treasure House?" We certainly can. 06:53 Braedan, can we please sing "Jesus Loves Me?" 06:56 I love that song, let's sing it together! 08:14 Thanks Braedan, it's so good to praise God in song. 08:18 Guess what? Dr. John is back with some wonderful stories! 08:23 Let's go and join him in his study. 08:26 Hello boys and girls, it's wonderful to be back with you. 08:30 And a special welcome to the boys and girls of Ireland, 08:34 way across the ocean, because this story started in 08:38 your country. 08:40 Three people, Bruce, Isidor, and Ida... 08:47 Bruce was rich - he was mega-rich, more money than 08:54 you and I would ever dream about. 08:56 In fact, he was so rich, he owned a company called 09:00 "The White Star Shipping Line," and he decided that he would 09:06 build the biggest, the fastest, the safest, the most fantastic 09:12 boat that had ever been built! 09:14 And it gradually took shape, and they called it, because they 09:18 wanted a BIG name, "TITANIC!" 09:22 And when the Titanic was ready to sail, they all got on board. 09:29 The richest people in the world were on first class, 09:33 and then there was second class and then there was 09:37 third class where a lot of poor people were. 09:40 And you know, when they built that boat, they said, 09:43 "It will never sink." 09:44 In fact, the newspapers reported, "No god can ever 09:49 sink this boat." 09:51 And they were so confident, that they built the boat 09:54 with not enough life boats for all the passengers. 10:00 And so away it sailed. 10:01 And I'm sure many of you know the story... 10:04 In the middle of the night, it hit an iceberg and it 10:10 wasn't long before they realized that the Titanic, 10:13 that beautiful brand new boat, its first trip, it started 10:18 to go nose-down in the water, and they realized 10:22 it was going to sink. 10:24 Now Isidor - his name was Isidor Straus, he was 10:31 very rich but he was very much in love with his wife, 10:36 and they had been married for many, many years... 10:40 And her name was "Ida," and they were standing on 10:45 the boat deck and the rule always was "Women and 10:51 children first and then the men." 10:53 And they were putting all the women and all the children 10:56 on the boat and Mr. Isidor Straus - he was not getting 11:02 on the boat because he knew the rules. 11:06 And they said to his wife, "Step in," and then they said, 11:10 "Mr. Straus, we'll find room for you." 11:12 He said, "I am not going on the lifeboat while there are 11:16 women and children." 11:18 And Mrs. Straus stepped out of the boat, out of the lifeboat 11:22 and she went back to her husband's side, 11:25 and she said something that everybody in the lifeboat 11:29 heard and remembered for a long time afterwards. 11:32 You know what she said? 11:34 "My darling, we have been married for many, many years, 11:40 and I'm not going to leave you now." 11:43 She was actually pronouncing her death sentence. 11:48 And they stayed and the last people saw of them, 11:51 they were standing on the deck as the boat started to sink 11:55 with their arms around each other. 11:58 Bruce, he, the owner of the boat... you know what he did? 12:06 He jumped onto a lifeboat and for the rest of his life, 12:11 he was called, "Brute Ismay." 12:15 You know, he had many treasures and I have got one of his 12:19 treasures here today. 12:22 This is a clock and let me tell you - it is worth 12:25 thousands and thousands of dollars, 12:28 and somebody has lent it to me today. 12:31 And if you look on the back, written on the gold, 12:34 it says, "Bruce Ismay." 12:37 His treasures were very, very important to him. 12:41 And he was so desperate, that he would live with his 12:44 treasures, he broke all the rules and he was hated 12:48 for the rest of his life. 12:50 You know, God made the first lifeboat with Noah. 12:53 God designed it, Noah built it and only 12:57 eight people were saved in the world. 13:00 And He has given us a lifeboat because He sent His Son 13:03 down to be the one who should die in order for us to be saved. 13:09 Fifteen hundred people died in the Titanic. 13:13 Most of them died in the freezing water. 13:16 It was a terrible event, but God gave His Son 13:19 and He is the lifeboat of heaven. 13:22 He died for us and I'm looking forward to seeing Him, 13:26 are you? I know you are. Thank you. 13:30 Hi boys and girls, welcome to our Bible study. 13:33 If you haven't got your Bible, go get it now so you can 13:35 follow along with us. 13:36 Caleb, can you please say a prayer for us 13:38 before we commence our study. 13:40 Dear Father... Thank You for our Bibles. Be with the children 13:43 who are joining us at home to understand 13:46 what we are reading today. 13:47 In Jesus name... Amen, Amen, thank you Caleb. 13:50 Bethany, can you remember where we left off 13:53 last time we met? 13:54 It was when David became king. 13:56 Yes it was, wasn't it? 13:57 Well today, we're going to continue our study 14:01 about what happened during David's leadership 14:04 as king of Israel and you're going to start us off 14:07 Erin - can you start off in 2 Samuel 2:8-9 and 11. 14:14 "But Abner, the son of Ner, commander of Saul's army, 14:18 took Ishbosheth the son of Saul, 14:21 and brought him over to Mahanaim; 14:24 And he made him king over Gilead, and over the Ashurites, 14:27 over Jezreel, over Ephraim, over Benjamin, 14:31 and over all Israel. 14:33 And the time that David was king in Hebron over the 14:37 house of Judah was seven years and six months." 14:40 Hmm, good reading, thank you Erin. 14:42 So the Bible is telling us that David was King of Judah 14:46 down here at Hebron. 14:48 Aunty Cecily, you can just quickly point at that for us. 14:50 But the rest of Israel was under the reign of King Ishbosheth 14:54 which is up there at Mahanaim. 14:57 Now Abner, who used to be the commander over King Saul's army, 15:02 knew that David was anointed to be the next king, 15:05 but Abner had a grudge against David and he 15:08 made Saul's son, Ishbosheth king 15:11 for his own personal advancement and power. 15:14 This resulted in a longstanding war against King David 15:18 and his commander Joab, and King Ishbosheth, 15:22 and his commander Abner. 15:25 Now Caleb, I'm going to get you to read 2 Samuel 3:2-5, 15:31 and we're going to find out what's happening in 15:33 David's life during this time. 15:35 "Samuel born unto David in Hebron; his first son was 15:39 Amnon, of Ahinoam the Jezreelitess; 15:42 his second, Chileab, of Abigail the widow of Nabal 15:45 the Carmelite; the third Absalom the son of Maacah 15:49 the daughter of Talmai king of Geshur; 15:51 the fourth, Adonijah the son of Haggith; 15:54 the fifth, Shephatiah the son of Abital; 15:59 and the sixth, Ithream, by David's wife Eglah. 16:04 These were born to David in Hebron." 16:07 Wow, thanks Caleb, there's a lot of tricky names 16:10 in there - well done! 16:11 So the Bible is telling us that David had six wives 16:15 and six sons, and if we were to continue to read, 16:19 the Bible tells us that David also got his first 16:21 wife, Michal, back which brought David's wives to seven. 16:25 Are you supposed to have that many wives? 16:28 No, and we're going to study about the result of that 16:31 in a later study. 16:32 So as a result of the in-fighting between the two 16:35 army commanders, King Ishbosheth was murdered 16:39 by his own men and David was anointed king over 16:43 all of Israel and the Bible tells us that David and his men 16:47 conquered Jebus which is 32 kilometers north of Hebron 16:51 and renamed it "Jerusalem." 16:53 Can you just show that to us Aunty Cecily? 16:56 Okay, Bethany, you're going to continue our reading 16:59 in 2 Samuel 5:10-11. 17:03 "So David went on and became great and the Lord God 17:08 of hosts was with him. 17:10 Then Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, 17:14 and cedar trees and carpenters and masons, 17:16 and they built David a house." 17:19 So David, through God blessing him, became great 17:22 throughout the land of Israel to the point that another 17:25 king from another land wanted to help build his palace. 17:29 Now, we're going over to a new book in the Bible and that's in 17:33 1 Chronicles, and for the boys and girls at home, 17:37 1 Chronicles has the same stories as 2 Samuel, 17:40 so we're going to flip back and forth, so make sure you 17:42 keep your bookmark in 2 Samuel. 17:45 David consulted with the leaders and gathered all the priests 17:50 and Levites and the people of Israel 17:52 in preparation to speak to them. 17:54 Let's see what he says. 17:55 Sophie, are you able to read for me, 1 Chronicles 13:3-4. 18:02 "And let us bring the ark of our God back to us; 18:05 for we have not enquired at it since the day of Saul. 18:08 And all the assembly said that they would do so; 18:11 for the thing was right in the eyes of all the people." 18:13 Thanks Sophie. 18:15 So David wanted to bring the 18:16 Ark of the Covenant to Jerusalem. 18:19 Let's see where they go to get it. 18:20 Matthew, can you read 1 Chronicles 13:6. 18:24 "And David and all Israel went up to Baalah, 18:27 to Kirjath Jearim, which belonged to Judah, to bring 18:31 up from there the ark of God the Lord, who dwells 18:35 between the cherubim, where His name 18:38 is proclaimed." Thanks Matthew. 18:40 Do you remember that we previously studied that the ark 18:44 was stolen and returned to the Israelites - it was taken to a 18:48 place called Kirjath Jearim. 18:50 Well that is where David is now retrieving it from. 18:54 So the ark has been there a very long time. 18:57 Can you show that to us, Aunty Cecily. Thank you. 19:01 Kirjath Jearim is about 14 kilometers from Jerusalem. 19:05 Okay, Mia, can you read 1 Chronicles 13:7-8, please. 19:10 "So they carried the ark of God on a new cart 19:13 from the house of Abinadab, and Uzza and Ahio drove the cart. 19:20 Then David and all Israel played music before God with 19:24 all their might, with strings on harps, 19:27 and on stringed instruments, on tambourines, 19:32 on cymbals, and with trumpets." 19:34 Okay, Aunty Cecily, can you read verse 9 to 10. 19:38 "And when they came to Chidon's threshing floor, Uzza put out 19:43 his hand to hold the ark, for the oxen stumbled. 19:47 Then the anger of the Lord was aroused against Uzza, 19:51 and He struck him because he put his hand to the ark; 19:55 and he died there before God." 19:58 So Uzza died for touching the ark. 20:02 David was so shocked and overwhelmed at the event 20:06 of Uzza dying that David got so scared - he left the ark 20:10 at the home of Obed-Edom. Can you point that out? 20:14 That's approximately where it was. Thank you. 20:17 During the next three months, verse 14 tells us 20:21 that the family of Obed-Edom was blessed 20:24 by having the ark with them. 20:26 Also during this time, David realized he had moved the 20:30 ark the wrong way - let's read about it. 20:33 Erin, can you please read 1 Chronicles 15:4, then 12-13. 20:41 "Then David assembled the children 20:43 of Aaron and the Levites... 20:45 He said to them, "You are the heads of the fathers' 20:48 houses of the Levites; sanctify yourselves, you and your 20:52 brethren that you may bring up the ark of the Lord God 20:56 of Israel to the place I have prepared for it. 21:00 For because you did not do it the first time, the Lord 21:02 our God broke out against us, because we did not consult 21:06 Him about the proper order." 21:07 So the ark was to be moved by the Levites as God had 21:11 stipulated in the Book of Numbers. 21:13 And they were to sanctify themselves beforehand 21:17 meaning they were to seek forgiveness from God 21:19 as the Ark of the Covenant was holy. 21:22 That's why Uzza died because he touched the holy ark. 21:26 When he had sins, he had not confessed to God. 21:31 Let's see what else the Levites had to do. 21:34 Caleb, can you read 1 Chronicles 15:15. 21:38 "And the children of the Levites bore the ark of God 21:42 on their shoulders, by its poles, as Moses 21:45 had commanded according to the word of the Lord." Thanks Caleb! 21:49 So the Levites were not to touch the ark, even when wrapped. 21:53 It was to be carried with the poles - you can see the 21:56 poles there underneath the wrappings which were threaded 22:00 through the sides of the ark and they had to be 22:02 carried on their shoulders. 22:04 Okay, we are now going back to the Book of 2 Samuel, 22:08 so go back to your bookmark and Bethany, 22:10 I want you to read for me, please, 2 Samuel 6:13-15. 22:19 "And so it was, when those bearing the ark of the Lord 22:22 had gone six paces, that he sacrificed 22:25 oxen and fatted sheep. 22:27 Then David danced before the Lord with all his might; 22:30 and David was wearing a linen ephod. 22:32 So David and all the house of Israel brought up the ark 22:36 of the Lord with shouting and the sound of the trumpet." 22:39 It's interesting that David is wearing a linen ephod. 22:43 Let's have a look at our torch light, Mrs. White's 22:46 writings, to see what they shine 22:49 on those verses that we've just read. 22:52 Sophie, can you read that for us. 22:59 "The king had laid aside his royal robes and attired 23:02 himself in a plain linen ephod such as worn by the priests. 23:06 In this holy service, he would take his place as before God 23:11 on an equality with his subjects. 23:13 Upon that day, Jehovah was to be adored. 23:16 He was to be the sole object of reverence." 23:18 Thanks Sophie. 23:20 David was showing his humbleness before the people 23:23 as he wanted them to know that the event of bringing 23:27 the Ark of the Covenant to Jerusalem was all about God. 23:31 He laid his kingly robes and crown aside and dressed 23:34 simply and humbly before the people. 23:37 Let's go now back to 1 Chronicles to our 23:41 memory verse - we've got it marked there boys and girls. 23:44 Can you do that? And we're going to read 23:47 a Psalm or a song that David sang in thanksgiving to God 23:52 after the ark was placed in the tent that he had prepared 23:56 for it in Jerusalem. 23:57 So this is a praise memory verse. 24:00 Boys and girls, this is found in 1 Chronicles 16:8-10. 24:04 Let's read it together... 24:27 It's so good to praise God! 24:30 Thank you boys and girls for reading along with us. 24:32 We have a devotional available that goes into 24:35 more depth than what we studied today. 24:37 Here's how you can get that... 24:39 Hey boys and girls! As Aunty Net said, 24:42 you can get your own devotionals. 24:43 Yes, you can download them free from our website at: 24:45 adaywiththeking.com 24:47 And Anna, we can't forget to tell the kids 24:49 to check out Teddy's Blog. 24:50 We have some behind the scene photos of filming the program. 24:54 Yes, and we also have some photos of Teddy going on his 24:57 annual visit to the vet. 24:58 We would love to hear where 24:59 in the world you are watching the program from, 25:01 so drop us a line and let us know. 25:03 Get a pen and write down our email address now: 25:06 dwk@3abnaustralia.org.au 25:10 So hop online today! 25:13 Thanks Kate and Dana! 25:14 Boys and girls, we'd love to hear from you, 25:16 so make sure you drop us an email to say hello. 25:19 Aunty Net, can you tell us what we're going to study 25:22 about next week? 25:23 Yes, next Sabbath we are going to study about what you 25:26 do when you make a big mistake. 25:28 We have a very interesting story to read about that, 25:31 so make sure you come back next week. 25:34 Aunty Cecily, shall we go over the memory verse 25:36 that we learned in our Bible study today? 25:38 Yes, children are you ready to do that? 25:40 Let's say it all together. 26:07 Well children, we've come to the end of another 26:10 worship time with the King. 26:12 Matthew, what did you learn about the King today? 26:15 That God wants us to accept His free gift of love. 26:18 Yes, He certainly does. 26:20 Aunty Nat, do you think we're 26:21 ready to sing our goodbye song 26:23 to the boys and girls at home? Yes, let's do that. 26:25 Children, can you turn around and let's sing to the 26:27 children at home. 26:34 May God bless you and keep you, 26:39 And fill your heart with love. 26:44 May God guide and protect you, 26:49 and watch you from above. 26:55 As Sabbath after Sabbath, 27:00 We greet the day of rest, 27:05 The day the King of glory 27:10 has sanctified and blessed. 27:15 Goodbye my friend till we meet again, 27:20 For another day with the King. 27:26 Goodbye! See you next Sabbath! 27:36 My favorite story is in the Bible is about Jesus 27:40 because He loves children. 27:46 My favorite Bible story is David because 27:48 how he trusted and had lots of faith 27:50 in God through all the tough times. 27:54 My favorite story is Ruth because she was brave 27:57 to follow Naomi to a foreign town. |
