—Nehemiah 9:5b-8
by: Tabatha Pethtel.
Israel had come out and heard the Law of the Lord read for seven days, and now they gave praise and thanksgiving in a meaningful prayer. They honored and praised God by recalling and reciting His acts of goodness and faithfulness to them over the years. Even after all their hardship and the years of exile, they had not forgotten God’s work in their lives. They also realized that God had not forgotten them. God keeps His promises and covenants with His people. We can join them today in praising Him as God, Creator, and Covenant Maker.
