Before playing this activity, you might want to introduce the episode in the following way:

Ok, boys and girls! consequent my directions, please. Touch your toes. (Wait for responses.) Clap your hands 2 times. (Wait for responses.) Spin colse to 2 times. (Wait for responses.) Very good. I'm so glad you followed my directions. God loves it when you allow His directions too. We can't just listen to God. We also have to do what He says. That's what our Bible verse says. James 1:22 says this: "Do not merely listen to the Word and so deceive yourselves, but do what it says." (Point to your Scripture board as you say the verse. In fact, I all the time break my verses up into small sections and then have the children repeat after me.) Now let's play a fun game to help us learn this Bible verse and learn to consequent directions. Let's play "Follow My Directions, Please."
