Great is the Lord and most worthy of praise; his greatness no one can fathom. One generation will commend your works to another; they will tell of your mighty acts.
What we know about God is confined to our tiny brains, our limited experiences, our willingness to read about the great deeds of God in Scripture, and our hearing of his incredible work through the lives of older Christians. There is nothing quite like listening to a more senior, grace-filled brother or sister in Christ who knows our Lord and has experienced his power through worship, obedience, mission, and experience. Let's commit to sharing our faith and experience with Jesus with future generations!
My Prayer...
God Almighty, by your grace, I call you Abba Father using the word for Father that expresses the intimacy and dependency of a small child. However, your majesty is beyond my ability to comprehend, and your power is beyond my capabilities to grasp. What I do know, dear Father, and what I do understand of you, Almighty God, brings me to my knees in humble adoration and reverent appreciation. Thank you for your love, mercy, and grace that make your majesty approachable and my mortality redeemable. In Jesus' name. Amen.
"God has wisely kept us in the dark concerning future events and reserved for himself the knowledge of them, that he may train us up in a dependence upon himself..."
"Dear Father, from whom all power comes, Help me to show proper respect for the duly constituted authority of government. Help me to do what is good,...."
"That strength which God gives to his Josephs is real strength; it is not a boasted valour, a fiction, a thing of which men talk, but which ends in..."
"[Peter continued,] "Moses said, 'The Lord your God will raise up for you a Prophet like me from among your own people. Listen carefully to everything...."
