Society is always just one generation away from being reduced to paganism. Each generation must carefully pass on its faith to those who follow. It matters not how amazing our walk with God may have been if we fail to pass on that faith to our children.
The Israelites had experienced the amazing deliverance from God as well as His daily provision. Yet they had not set their hearts to respond properly to God. Despite the innumerable blessings God showered upon them, they continued to doubt God’s word and to rebel against His leading.
The truth is that all the miracles and answers to prayer in the world will not strengthen our faith if our heart is not open and sensitive to God. If any people in history should have had a vibrant, unshakeable faith in God it was the nation of Israel. Yet, no quantity of miracles could assure a people whose hearts were not committed to God.
What does the generation below you witness as they watch your walk with God?
