DID YOU KNOW YOU CAN TEACH A GREAT GOSPEL LESSON
USING A DECK OF CARDS...
By Wade Martin Hughes, Sr. Kyfingers@aol.com
1. THE ACE testifies that THERE IS ONE GOD... and that GOD LOVES
PEOPLE...
2. THE DEUCE OR THE TWO tells us that the Bible is DIVIDED IN
TWO PARTS: THE OLD TESTAMENT and THE NEW TESTMENT...
The Bible is God's word to man... God's word does God's work...
3. Look at THE TREY, THREE ... The 3 speaks of the God head:
THE FATHER, THE SON, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT...
God loved us so much... God gave his only son ...
4. THE FOUR TEACHES US THERE ARE 4 EVANGELIST, 4 GOSPELS
in the New Testament... MATTHEW, MARK, LUKE, AND JOHN...
5. Now we come to the 5.
5 illustrates to us: There were 5 WISE and 5 FOOLISH VIRGINS...
This lessons speaks to us about BE READY...
BE PREPARED, for in an hour we think not... JESUS IS COMING...
The little boy had 5 BARLEY LOAVES, 2 small fishes for a MIRACLE...
6. THE NUMBER SIX REMINDS US THAT GOD CREATED THE HEAVENS
AND THE EARTH... IN SIX DAYS GOD CREATED EVERYTHING AND SAID:
IT IS GOOD...
7. The number 7 is God's special number... It is a prime number and is
only devisable by 1 and itself... There are 7 days in a week...
and GOD CHOSE TO WORSHIP AND KEEP THE DAY HOLY...
Then God rested...
8. 8 is a number near God's heart... David was the 8th son.
There were 8 steps going to the church. On the 8th day all males
were circumsized. 8 is the number to represent the RIGHTOEUS...
THERE WERE 8 SOULS SAVED IN NOAH'S ARK... He, his wife,
3 sons, and their wives... 8....
9. Jesus felt broken for a group of people very sick...
They had LEPROSY and they were unclean and isolated from
everyone... JESUS HEALED THEM... 9 RAN AWAY TO DO THEIR
RELIGIOUS DUTY AND REPORT TO THE PRIEST... 9 NEVER SAID
THANK YOU TO THE SON OF GOD... 9 RAN AWAY...
ONLY 1 WAS MADE WHOLE...
9, THE MAJORITY WERE NOT FAITHFUL...
10. GOD HAD 10 COMMANDMENTS, NOT 10 SUGGESTIONS...
GOD WROTE THE TEN COMMANDMENT IN A STONE TABLET...
MOSES BROKE ALL 10 COMMANDMENTS ON ONE DAY...
GOD WROTE THE 10 COMMANDMENTS AGAIN AND THEY WERE
KEPT IN THE ARK OF THE COVANENT...
11. NOW WE COME TO A VERY IMPORTANT CARD... THE KING...
We have a KING, JESUS IS HIS NAME...
Jesus is the King of Kings, Lord of Lords... He will reign forever...
12. Look we have now come to the QUEEN... The Queen speaks of
the great woman of the Bible...
EVE the Mother of All Human life...
RAHAB THE HARLOT, she had been a bad lady, and now she OFFERS
the spies her SCARLET CORD...
The LADY that gave her ALABASTER BOX and anointed Jesus for
his burial...
THE REMEMBER MARY MAGNALENE, JESUS' MOTHER...
SHE CARRIED THE MESSIAH IN HER WOMB...
13. THE JACK OF KNAVES IS THE DEVIL...

CREATION... HIS DESIRE IS TO STEAL, KILL, AND DESTROY YOU
AND YOUR FAMILY...
14. THERE ARE 52 CARDS IN A DECK...

THE FIVE FINGER PRAYER ...
1) Your Thumb is nearest to youSo begin your prayers by praying
for those closest to you. They are the easiest to remember. To pray for
our loved ones is important.
2) The next finger is the Pointing Finger
The pointing finger reminds us of those who instruct so pray for those
who teach, instruct and heal. This includes teachers, doctors, and ministers.
They need support and wisdom in pointing others in the right direction.
Keep them in your prayers.
3) The next finger is the Tallest Finger
Our tallest finger reminds us of those who are in charge.
Pray for the president, leaders in business and industry.
They need God’s guidance.
4) The fourth finger is our Ring Finger
The ring finger is our weakest finger, as any piano teacher will testify.
It should remind us to pray for those who are weak, in trouble or in pain.
5) And lastly comes our Little Finger
The smallest finger of all. Which is where we should place ourselves in
relation to God and others. As the Bible says, “The least shall be the greatest
among you.” Your Pinkie should remind you to pray for yourself.
I have changed much of the material, ...source unknown for material.
