Teaching Your Children To Set Their Hope in God
Psalm 78 is about the importance of knowing God’s character and glorious deeds. Israel’s history is full of examples when people forgot about the Lord, turned away from Him and faced the consequences. Therefore Asaph (the poet who wrote this Psalm) reminds his listeners of God’s commandment to fathers to teach their children “the glorious deeds of the Lord, and His might, and the wonders that He has done” (Psalm 78:4).
Every generation needs to know the Lord. And it is the responsibility of the previous generations to transmit the stories about God’s wonders — which they have experienced themselves or have heard about from their parents and grandparents, or have read about in the Bible. This will teach children that the Lord is good and almighty and trustworthy, “so that they should set their hope in God, and not forget the works of God, but keep His commandments” (Psalm 78:7).
Parents can’t ensure their own faith and hope is shared by their children. But it is their responsibility to educate them and make sure they understand God’s Word. This knowledge is the most precious gift parents can ever give their children.

For many people, “hope” is something positive but also something uncertain. If we hope for something, we are not sure whether it will happen. However, the Bible teaches us that there is a source of hope that is absolutely certain and trustworthy — God's character and promises. This reading plan is about hope from a Biblical perspective.
