Making Known His Faithfulness to ALL Generations

Psalm 89:1  I will sing of the mercies of the Lord forever: with my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness to all generations.

Words are a teacher.  When we read God's Word, the Bible, we become insiders to a conversation in which God uses words to bless, encourage, sustain, empower, guide, and forgive us. 

Faithfulness to all generations: 
God is in control no matter what stage of linage.  He reigns supreme! I find great comfort in the fact that God not only wants to guide me, but He wants to guide my forefathers and my child(ren).  He is no respecter of persons!  I love that. I love that no matter how old or young, as long as GOD sees an eager, thirsty heart, He will show up and speak.  Age is not a factor for God. 

In ancient times the only way a story could be told is to tell it verbally.  The story would pass through generation to generation.  Thinking on God's goodness it is easy to sing songs of praise about Him. 

And, it's not enough what I think about the Lord, but I must speak of the Lord. 

God is the only one that can read my mind.  If I want my offspring to know what I believe about the Lord I must speak.  I must tell of His power.  I must tell of His faithfulness.  I must tell of His provision. I must tell of the security I find in Him.  I must tell of the love I have found from Him.  He is good and His mercies endure throughout ALL generations! 

:-D 

Because of the weather, today is dreary, wet, and flooding in areas...there's continual thunderous applause in the heavens and flashs of cracking light in the sky, my car-port is being covered with water as I type, my road is flooded, I can't get to work (at least not yet), my yard is full of water (and because of that I have plumbing issues), but I will sing!
Borrowing from the lyrics on the new POINT OF GRACE cd, I will now sing:  Seems like the sun just went out today//But there's blue sky hiding out//It may not seem like it now//But things can change in an instant..Gray clouds run out of rain//It's just a matter of time til it happens//Might be today//Might be today!         Sing...Keep HOPE alive! And...if the rain doesn't stop today...well, God helped a man walk on water once, I reckon HE can do it again :-D
