OUR RESPONSIBILITY TO THE NEXT GENERATION

“We will not hide these truths from our children; we will tell the next generation about the glorious deeds of the Lord, about his power and his mighty wonders” (Psalm 78:4 NLT).

The psalmist instructed the people of God not to hide the testimony of faith that had been handed down to them by their forefathers. Instead, they must tell the next generation all that God had done for them.

The truth is, we are always only one generation away from losing our spiritual heritage. It only takes one generation failing to pass the baton of faith to the next for the race to be lost. Therefore, let us endeavor to firmly hand off the testimony of faith to the next generation. Tell your children and your children’s children what God has done for you!

PRAYER: Dear Father, we thank You for those generations who have gone before us that told us about You and declared their testimony of faith to us. We have believed. Yet, strengthen us to pass on this testimony to the next generation that they may know the joy of being right with You. In Jesus’ name, amen.
