All Generations: Sing to the Lord

Throughout the Bible, one of God’s most frequent commands is to remember. The Lord tells His people to remember the Sabbath, to remember His goodness, His word, His faithfulness, where they have come from by His provision, His promises for the future, and so many other things. But why is this so important?

Christianity is a faith that tells and sings of who our God is and what He has done. We remember His works so we can proclaim to the world that we have a Savior, who is Christ the Lord! The first step of the Church is to preach the gospel to each other – the older generations to the younger, the parents to the children, and even the children to their elders. David wrote in Psalm 145:3-4, “Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised, And His greatness is unsearchable. One generation shall commend Your works to another, And shall declare Your mighty acts.” 

The voices of every generation matter in the Church, and we should praise Him with every voice of all ages for all time, declaring His greatness to each other and to a watching world. South Tulsa Baptist Church is blessed with a multi-generational music ministry, something we don’t see very often these days, and that is one of my favorite things about serving here and leading the South Tulsa Kids Choirs. In any given season, you can hear the voices of grandparents, parents, children, and preschoolers in our church as they sing praises to the Lord about the things He has done for us.

That’s exactly what you’re seeing on the platform today. We’re beginning Palm Sunday with an all-generations time of music as our Children’s Choir joins the adults to sing the modern hymn Jesus, Strong and Kind. You’ll hear voices of every age singing to you and to each other that “the Lord is good and faithful” and “we should always run to Jesus” when we’re weak, afraid, needy, and lost. Let’s join our voices together as one body in Christ, singing together that Jesus saves!
