Psalms 78 · Grade 3
Don't Forget God's Deeds
Read the Story
The title of Psalm 78 calls it a contemplation by Asaph. He said, Hear my teaching, my people. We will not hide them from their children. We will tell the generation to come the praises of Yahweh.
Why? So that they might set their hope in God, and not forget God's deeds, but keep his commandments. God split the sea. He led them with a cloud and with fire. He split rocks and gave them water. He rained down manna on them to eat.
But the people often forgot God and complained. Yet God was merciful and forgave. Many times he turned his anger away. Finally God chose David his servant, and took him from the sheepfolds to be the shepherd of his people.
