At Creations Class After inviting the Lord in to the classrooms with a word of prayer, the

students jumped into the Jubilee game. First, they traced the state they

lived in and then drew a looooong line from Indiana to Texas, where the

current Jubilee tapes were being preached. Wow, it takes almost 13

hours to drive from Indiana to Texas! You could see the awe on the

little students’ faces.

Then, we used the YF tape quiz questions for 64-0305 Perseverant to

review what Brother Branham said in reference to the Syrophoenician

woman. Recognition dawned on the faces of the children when they heard

Brother Branham talk about her on tape. With bright, shining faces, they

excitedly answered the questions.

Materials were passed out and the children set forth constructing their

hothouses. Afterwards, the children secured the covering so the bugs and

the weather couldn't get into the “babied” plants. After planting and

placing our cilantro and thyme inside the hothouses, the children were

reminded by the herb thyme to “Take Quiet 'Thyme'” with the Lord!

Class Name: Don’t Be A Hothouse Plant

Quote: “She wasn't a--a hothouse plant that had to be babied, one of these kind you have to spray all over, you know, and keep the bugs off of it. A good healthy plant, you don't have to spray it. A good healthy plant, a bug can't get to it, it's full of health. And a good born-again faith in God, a real genuine Holy Ghost faith, nothing is going to turn it down. It can't do it. It's persistent. It's going to the goal that God has promised to it. There is nothing going to turn it down. It's going anyhow.”

Rev. William Marrion Branham Perseverant 64-0305

Scripture: Then Jesus went thence, and departed into the coasts of Tyre and Sidon. And, behold, a woman of Canaan came out of the same coasts, and cried unto him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou son of David; my daughter is grievously vexed with a devil. But he answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him, saying, Send her away; for she crieth after us. But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel. Then came she and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me. But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs. And she said, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat... the crumbs which fall from the masters' table. Then said... Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou will. And her daughter was made whole from that very hour.

Matthew 15:21-28

A hothouse/hybrid plant: has to be babied. can’t have too much water or too much sun. has to stay inside. doesn’t even know the weather outside! everything has to be perfect for it to grow.

A mustard seed: grows no matter the weather obstacles. grows bigger and stronger all the time!

A Christian is liken to a mustard seed for he has faith and can overcome obstacles of life because he is persistent to the goal that God has given him!

A Genuine Christian is persistent and …. stays in the Word always believes God prays reads the Bible listens to tapes sings unto the Lord has Quiet Time thinks about Jesus

Persistent Bible Heroes ….. Noah – It will rain! Moses – He knew God was with him David – didn’t matter how big the giant was Samson John The Baptist Shunamite Woman Martha Woman at the well Little Greek woman (syrophenician woman)

Persistent American Heroes George Washington The Little Spanish Woman – dead baby

Reference Scriptures: Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field: Which indeed is the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, it is the greatest among herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in the branches thereof.

MATTHEW 13:31-32 …If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.

MATTHEW 17:20

Then Jesus went thence, and departed into the coasts of Tyre and Sidon.

And, behold, a woman of Canaan came out of the same coasts, and cried unto him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou son

of David; my daughter is grievously vexed with a devil. But he answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him, saying, Send her away; for she crieth after us.

But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

Then came she and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me. But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's

bread, and to cast it to dogs. And she said, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat... the crumbs which

fall from the masters' table. Then said... Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou will. And her daughter was

made whole from that very hour. Matthew 15:21-28
