The other day I was watching the Virginia Tech football game and there was an interview where Tom Brady's head coach said he felt like one of the biggest reasons for all of Tom's Super Bowl victories is that he comes to practice every day like a little kid, excited to learn and get better.
This reminded me of how Jesus said kids hold the secrets and we must have childlike faith.
In Matthew 21:16 Jesus said... “Yes. Have you never read, ‘Out of the mouth of babes and nursing infants You have perfected praise’?”
Jesus was quoting Psalms 8:2 which actually reads a little differently. Psalms 8:2 says... Through the praise of children and infants you have established a stronghold against your enemies, to silence the foe and the avenger.
Praising God like a little child perfects our praise and establishes a stronghold against our enemies. Being established means it is fixed, secure, and immovable. The Hebrew word for establish in this verse is often translated as laying a foundation. Praising God like a little child is the foundation for building a stronghold against the enemy.
I am praying for you.
Daniel
