Bible 800 LIFEPAC Teacher Notes

INSTRUCTIONS FOR BIBLE

The Alpha Omega Curriculum from grades two through twelve was written with the dailyinstructional material written directly in the LIFEPACs. The student is encouraged to read andfollow his own instructional material thus developing independent study habits. The teachershould introduce the LIFEPAC to the student, set a required completion schedule, completeteacher checks, be available for questions regarding both subject content and procedures,administer and grade tests and develop additional learning activities as desired. Teachersworking with several students may schedule their time so that students are assigned to a quietwork activity when it is necessary to spend instructional time with one particular student.

The Teacher Notes section of the handbook lists the required or suggested materials for theLIFEPACs and provides additional learning activities for the students. The materials sectionrefers only to LIFEPAC materials and does not include materials which may be needed for theadditional activities. Additional learning activities provide a change from the daily schoolroutine, encourage the student’s interest in learning and may be used as a reward for good studyhabits.

Additional Learning ActivitiesSection I Christ’s Model Prayer

1. Discuss these questions with your class.a. Can we be Christians without praying?b. Can we be Christians without praying every day?c. Is it better to pray in the morning or at night or both?d. How can we “pray without ceasing”?e. Do you think friends of yours have gone through difficulties which

might have been eased if you had prayed for them?f. Does God hear a sinner’s prayer?g. Have you ever felt stronger because you knew someone was praying for

you?h. Does praying for the same thing day after day show persistence or a lack

of faith? Should we just ask God once, then leave it in His hands orshould we remind Him of it now and then?

i. If Christ was without sin, why did He need to pray?j. Do you think your attitude toward God as your heavenly Father could

be determined by your relationship with your earthly father? (Forexample, if you have love for and confidence in your earthly father andcan bring your needs to him, then it would be easier to transfer theseattitudes to your heavenly father.)

k. Do you think our forefathers prayed more and had more faith for theirmaterial needs than we do today? (Taking into consideration that todaywe have welfare, loan companies, credit cards, etc. Do we have to trustGod as much as we would if we did not have as many resourcesavailable?)

l. If we are sick, should we pray first or go to the doctor? Does going to thedoctor indicate a lack of faith?

m. Is it always God’s will to heal sickness?n. Will God supply our wants as well as our needs?o. Is it wrong or selfish to pray for ourselves?

2. Have everyone in class write a prayer request on a slip of paper (signed orunsigned) and exchange with someone else (or put all slips in a box and haveeveryone draw one out). Pray for that request every day for the next week(then make new requests if class shows interest in continuing).

3. Have each member of the class say a sentence prayer aloud. Different themescan be used each day, such as a prayer of thanksgiving, prayer of petition forschool, petition for sick classmate, petition for country and leaders.

Bible 801 Teacher Notes

4. Look up 1 Corinthians 10:13 or Philippians 4:19 in the Bible. Copy it on anindex card and hang it in your bedroom or in a room where you can see itoften.

5. Make a prayer list. Include friends, family, church leaders, national leaders,and those who are going through a particular crisis or need special prayer.

6. Make a list of special prayer requests, such as the salvation of a friend or afamily member. Put a date beside these requests and later put the date yourprayer was answered. (Looking back at this list later and seeing the answerswill increase your faith.)

Section II Christ’s Teaching on Prayer1. Discuss these questions with your class.

a. If a person does not have faith for his own healing, can he still be healedthrough the prayers and faith of others?

b. Is it important if we kneel, stand, or sit when we pray?c. Have a contest to see who can make the most words out of

“thanksgiving.” Plural and proper nouns do not count. Set a time limit.2. Interview a pastor, Sunday school teacher, or friend on their “most remarkable

answer to prayer.”3. Write a 100-word report on a Bible character who experienced an unusual

answer to prayer.4. Begin a notebook of answered prayers. These can include your own prayers or

testimonies given in church of answered prayers. They can also include storiesfrom Christian literature. You may want to divide them into categories suchas “personal,” “friends,” “Bible characters,” and so forth.

5. The following activity may be reproduced.
