Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised; and His greatness is unsearchable. One generation shall praise Your works to another, and shall declare Your mighty acts. Psalm 145:3-4
How are you declaring the works of the Lord to the next generation? Do your children know your testimony? Do they know how the Lord has changed your life? Do they know how the Lord has answered your prayers? Yes, read the Bible stories to your children. Hey, act them out. Draw pictures. Make a puppet show. I’ve been having my kids each tell a Bible story after dinner as way to work on Scripture memory, though we don’t worry about getting it exactly right. They are stories of the works of the Lord, of His mighty acts, of His unsearchable greatness.
But our family also has a miracle wall (pictured above). We’ve posted notes and mementos that mark miracles we’ve experienced and awesome answers to prayers. They range from our daughter’s free art lessons, to healings, to provisions of money, to protection from lice, and even an evaluator to sign our homeschool paperwork! Our kids know how the Lord has helped us along the way. They know the Lord delivered me from all things streaming and how much I love God’s word. They see (or hear) me singing (and maybe a little dancing) and clapping the tambourine most every night. 🙂
Declare the mighty acts of the Lord! Praise God! Let your children know how great our great God is!
Amen! Yes lets praise the Lord to and with the next generation, for I believe this helps us all to remember just how great Our Lord is! During the tough times of life it can be easy to forget this important truth but when we choose to remember His goodness, oh how our perception changes!! Thank you dear Sister. May the Lord’s grace and peace continue to rest upon your heart and His praise on your lips!
Amen! I agree 💯. It’s good to include your children in prayers and teach them the importance of praying and praising God. Helping them see the miracles God has provided. It is my very ministry to help parents have effective Bible study and prayers with their family. Praise God!
That’s great!
