The 78th Psalm jumped out at me recently.
Give ear, o my people, to my Torah: incline your ears to the words of my mouth. (Verse 1)
For he established a testimony in Jacob, and appointed a Torah in Israel, which he commanded our fathers, that they should make them known to their children: that the final generation to come might know them, even the children who would be born, who would arise and declare them to their own children, that they might see their hope in YHWH and not forget his works, but keep his commandments. (Verse 5-7)
Let's make this our prayer shall we? That our ears would be inclined to the words of YHWH and that all the generations would know his Torah and remember his amazing works!
A prayer from Psalm 78:
YHWH, give your people ears to hear your Torah. Let us incline our ears to your words. Give us understanding and teach us who you are. Don't let us hide your words from our families and friends. Give us wisdom and creativity to share your truth in all areas of our lives. Help us to teach your word to our children, that every generation would praise you, YHWH. Let every generation know your strength and remember the wonderful works you have done, both in our lives and your mighty acts for our spiritual and physical ancestors in Scripture. Let all the generations know of your great Torah. Let the final generation to come know your Torah, your truth, and keep your commandments. Even the children who have yet to be born: let them arise and declare your word. Let us and all the generations set our hope upon you, YHWH. Don't let us forget your works and help us to keep your commandments.
