Day 60
Psalm 78:4
"We will not hide them from their children; we will tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of the Lord, his power, and the wonders he has done."
The psalmist helps give insight into what praise is all about. As he talks of showing the younger generation the praises of the Lord, he is referring to the greatness of God demonstrated by the mighty acts He performed. To praise God is to boast of His greatness and the great things He has done.
Apart from understanding what praise is, it is important that we take hold of the Word that shows us we have a responsibility to pass on the heritage of praising God to our children. We can tell them what it means to praise God, why we praise Him and how they can praise Him also.
I will boast of God's goodness and greatness. I will pass on this heritage to my children.
