Psa 78:6-7 That the generation to come might know them, The children who would be born, That they may arise and declare them to their children, (7) That they may set their hope in God, And not forget the works of God, But keep His commandments;
If you felt like you just heard a history lesson it is because you did! Asaph lays out the history of Israel that they might learn and praise the Lord. There are many stories to read through in this chapter and I would encourage you to consider everyone. Most importantly, it tells of Israel's falling away, and God's faithfulness.
If they were to do the same thing to your life what would it look like? They would pull up all the records of you turning against the Lord and His faithfulness. I know for me it would be scary to see my sin diplayed in such a manner. Now think about it as if it was. Think about all the sin and mistakes you have made. Consider His faithfulness. It give you a different perspective on life does it not? History is His Story. It is all about the Lord. Give today over to Him, and give Him complete control. He will shape your life into a story that will not be embarassing or regrettable, but will be amazing.
