First through third graders learn that Jesus proved He was the Messiah through miracles that fulfilled specific Old Testament prophecy. This lesson connects Isaiah 35:5-6 to Matthew 11:5 in a way that is accessible and memorable for concrete thinkers who love stories and movement.
Big Idea: We can trust Jesus is who He says He is, because He did things only God can do.
