Devotion for Tuesday, May 01, 2018

“We will not conceal them from their children, but tell to the generation to come the
praises of the Lord, and His strength and His wondrous works that He has done. For He
established a testimony in Jacob and appointed a law in Israel, which He commanded our
fathers that they should teach them to their children,” (Psalm 78:4-5)

Tell your children. Warn them of the way of the wicked and tell them. As with all of us, the
Lord knows who are His and it is upon Him to reach to those who will be reached, but tell your
children. The Lord is always worthy of being praised and the devil will do whatever he can to
convince us otherwise. Every generation should proclaim a testimony for the Lord and His
goodness.

Lord, you know the difficulties of every time and place. Guide me O Lord to humbly walk in
Your ways, speak Your praises and live according to Your Word. Let my life be a testimony of
the truth You have given me that I may walk in Your ways all the days of my life. Lead me
according to Your purpose that I may be the light shining Your presence and goodness to others.

Lord Jesus, Light of the world. You have come to show the way for any who receive the
testimony of truth You give. Let Your light shine through me that I may speak not only to my
children, but to all who will become Your children. Lead me in the life You would have me
live that I may forever praise You in thankfulness for the goodness You have bestowed upon
Your children. Amen.
