Sunday School ideas are great for any class! Here is one called “A Verse for Every Day.”
“This is the day the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it!”
Do any of you remember that song? It was one of the first worship choruses I learned back when I was 13. I used to sing it all the time. Every day IS special when we realize the miracle of life God gives us. His Word is special too. So, why not put a Scripture verse together with today’s date and see what special encouragement you can receive from the Lord.
For example, my birthday is May 20th or 5-20 or 5:20. Hmmm…5:20 reminds me of James 5:20 which says, “Whoever turns a sinner from the error of his way will save him from death and cover over a multitude of sins.” But then again 8:7 is my husband’s and my anniversary which reminds me of John 8:7 – “If anyone of you is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone at her.”
Get the point? Make each day extra special by having your children find a verse that matches the date of the day. Can anyone come up with a good one for today? I’d love to hear your ideas. This is just one of many of Scripture Lady Sunday School ideas.
May the Word of God be praised EVERY DAY!
By the way, this would be a fun activity to play while your kids are standing in line or waiting for the next event during VBS. Just ask for someone’s birthday and look up a verse that matches the numbers. Have fun!

Hi Ginger,
Glad you like the idea. And I love your twist on it. May the Lord bless it!

This idea is perfect! I was looking for a “filler” for Children’s Church this Sunday. I had been teaching the kids about Spiritual Gifts and I was looking for something different. I can adjust this idea to teach “Knowledge”, I will print out scripture for the week with the dates as in the idea. I can cut them out and the kids can glue them to pretty paper. Then the kids can “sew” their Scripture Books together with yarn through pre-punched holes.
Thanks so much for the support!
I really like your idea for a Scripture to match a day. I’m going to use it in my elementary youthy group to have each child pick a Scripture that matches their birthdate and memorize it. I’m also thinking of using it in birthday cards I send to encourage the recipients of the cards.
You’re very welcome. Thank you for stopping by my site and leaving an encouraging word.
Blessings,
Kathy
