February Memory Verse: II Corinthians 10:5b, “And we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.”

Bible Story: Joshua 1:1-9

Main Point: No fear, God is near

In the third week of our Rise Above series, we watched as Daniel encountered another negative voice in his life. See if it takes him down or if he’s able to rise above it!

The negative voice this week pestered Daniel with “what if” questions, creating fear in Daniel. Daniel, however, was able to remember that God has promised to be with us no matter what, and that promise gave him the courage needed to rise above the voice of fear.

In your family this week, share your fears with each other, and try to get beyond spiders and heights. Talk about the real fears you and your kids are facing, reassure each other of God’s promises, and pray that He would grant you courage.
