“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.

Moses reminded the Israelites as they stood on the border of the Promised Land of the importance of choice. Would they choose life or death? The Lord had given Moses instructions and he had faithfully delivered them to his people. What would they choose? Today, what will you choose: life or death? For life is in Christ Jesus for all those who have chosen to trust in His Name.

Moses gave final instructions to the Israelites before his departure. He told them that they all had to make a choice between life and death. Both paths are clearly marked, yet few choose life. Here, Moses said that the “key to life” is to love, obey and commit yourself to God. Yet, the only One to really accomplish this is Jesus, who alone expressed love, obedience and commitment to the Father fully. When we “choose” Jesus (who has already chosen us), we choose life.

The Pharisees represented the highest attainment of human religion, yet their approach like all religious effort, affected only the exterior life, leaving the heart unchanged. Religion attempts to work from the outside-in, but the gospel works inside-out. The gospel is about relationship, not religion. It is about a relationship with Jesus as Savior and Lord. Have you had your life turned inside-out by Him?
