Telling to the generation to come the praises of the LORD,
And His strength and His wonderful works that He has done.

9 Only take heed to yourself, and diligently keep yourself, lest you forget the things your eyes have seen, and lest they depart from your heart all the days of your life. And teach them to your children and your grandchildren,

7 You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up.

That a people yet to be created may praise the LORD.

How the Holy Spirit gives us Life

Romans 8:11 (New King James Version)

11 But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.

2 Corinthians 4:16, 18 (New King James Version)

16 Therefore we do not lose heart. Even though our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day.
18 while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal.

Titus 3:5 (New King James Version)

5 not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit,

And renew a steadfast spirit within me.
