Deuteronomy 7:9 - a prayer of Moses

Deuteronomy 7:9 – “Know this: The Lord is God, and you can trust Him to keep His promises. God is faithful, loving, and kind to all of His followers who love Him. Even a thousand generations from now will see evidence of this!”

 

In times of stress or misunderstanding, family and friends might seem unkind or disloyal, but not You, Lord! No circumstance can deter You from being true to Yourself and true to Your love for us.

Help us, Heavenly Father, to keep our promise to be true to You. Praise You for reassuring us that our descendants will be able to see and renew the effects of Your fellowship from one generation to the next.

A prayer of Abraham

 

Fads change. Technology continues to advance. Cultural customs and social traditions don't approve of something one year, but later say it’s okay. 

However, God does not change, and neither do the basic needs of people. We all need water, food, clothing, shelter, and love. No matter the time or place, caring parents want the best for their children.

This brief Bible prayer of Abraham undoubtedly speaks for parents, grandparents, and other caretakers today.

 

Genesis 17:18

Oh, that my child
might live in Your
presence, Lord,
and be under Your
blessing!

 

Yes! Amen!
