Courage To Not Hide The Truth



We will not hide these truths from our children;
    we will tell the next generation
about the glorious deeds of the L
ORD,
    about his power and his mighty wonders.

So each generation should set its hope anew on God,
    not forgetting his glorious miracles
    and obeying his commands.

—Psalm 78:4,7 (NLT)


LORD God,


Grant me the courage to leave a legacy of Truth to my children and to the next generation, as I boldly proclaim to them Your glorious deeds, Your unlimited power and Your mighty wonders—that they would set their hope anew on You, remembering Your glorious miracles and obeying all Your commands.


Keep me from any fear of sharing the Truth of Your Word with my children and those that follow after me—from any fear that the relationship I now have with them would be damaged or severed, if I were to speak the Truth more boldly.

Help me to share freely what Your Word says about You, but also how You have proven Your Word to be Truth in the circumstances of my own life—as You have demonstrated Your love, compassion, forgiveness, mercy and grace on every page of the story of my life.

Let it be that, because of the story that You have written on the pages of my life, I will pass on a legacy that would cause the ones that follow me to set their hope anew on You—because they heard and believed and remembered and obeyed the Truth of Your Word.


Grant me the courage to leave a legacy of Truth to my children and to the next generation, as I boldly proclaim to them Your glorious deeds, Your unlimited power and Your mighty wonders—that they would set their hope anew on You, remembering Your glorious miracles and obeying all Your commands.


In the name of Jesus, Amen.
