memory verse is such a precious one I w an t every one to learn it, and und er stand w h at it means. Now in our story th e angel passed over th e homes because th e lam h’s blood was upon th e door posts. This verse tells us we have a b etter passover th a n a lamb, fo r it says our passover is Jesu s Himself. When they, killed th e lamb, it m eant they sacrificed it, and when Jesus died on th e cross, He was sacrificed to die for our sins, and th a t is why we do not k ill lambs any more because Jesu s is God’s Lamb, and when we believe on Him, He forgives our sins and washes them all away, and when ever God looks a t people h ere on earth , He looks into th e ir h ea rts to see if they love Jesus, and if they do, He passes over and forgives every sin, because Jesu s’ death on the cross saves everybody th a t will tru s t Him and love Him, and will give us a home in heaven w ith Jesus forever. Closing Prayer.— Dear Lord, we th a n k thee for sending Jesu s to be our passover, and help us to live for Him every day.

God h ad trie d so h ard and been so p atien t try in g to show them He was God, h u t th ey would no t listen, and now th is g rea t sorrow has come into every single home of the k ing ’s people, and his home too. The king told Moses to ta k e all his people and get ou t of th e land as fa st as they could go, for now you see th e king was scared. Moses sta rted and all th e people followed, w ith such a crowd of people you could no t count them , and lots and lots of cattle and th e re was a very w onderful cloud which w ent before them , which was all b rig h t like fire a t n igh t giving lig h t to th e people. This cloud showed Moses ju s t where to go, and, and when to stop or s ta rt during th e long journey. You know w hat made th is cloud so wonderful? I t was because Jesus was in th a t cloud. Our
