4.
After the Israelites leave Egypt, they travel through the desert.
During difficult times,
Miriam andAaron begin speaking against Moses. Numbers 12:9-10 (NASB) says, "The anger of the Lord burned against them and He departed. Behold Miriam was leprous." What does Aaron say when he sees Miriam's condition? What does Moses pray? In your opinion, does Moses forgive his brother and sister? Read Numbers 12:11-13. ANSWERS: Aaron admits the sin, says he and his sister have been foolish, and asks for forgiveness. Moses asks God for mercy for his sister. Say: Do you think Moses is upset to see his sister in this condition? They have been through a great deal together, and she had saved his life when he was a baby. |

| Application | |||||
| Moses' family had worked together and accomplished great things for God. What have you learned from this family? (to work together, to get along and help one another, to consider one another's needs) Even in the most loving families, sometimes we need to forgive and sometimes we need to ask for forgiveness. Students may want to share family experiences. | |||||
| Do you think God was watching over Moses, Miriam, and Aaron? (Numbers 12:1, 2) Does He watch over you and me? Is God pleased with what He sees? | |||||
| During the week, pray for God's direction in your family. Ask God to lead you in making a difference at home. Using the students' names, tell them that God will be watching over them. Ex: "This week God is watching over all the Jonathans, all the Carlys, and all the Jennys." | |||||
