In the Old Testament, the heroes of Scripture left monuments behind to remind upcoming generations of God’s faithfulness. We should do the same, and the monuments we leave may be as simple as a well-marked Bible.
Think about this today: How can you build a monument? How can you leave a testimony behind, letting future generations know of God’s faithfulness in your life? It’s like leaving behind a love letter. God is glorified in our monuments to His past faithfulness and in our testimonies to the next generation about how He has blessed us. It is a debt which the old disciples of Christ owe to the succeeding generations to leave behind them a solemn testimony to the power, pleasure, and advantage of religion, and the truth of God’s promises. Matthew Henry |
