Memorize Psalm 99:5 for Children

Exalt the Lord our God and worship at his footstool; Holy is He!

Meaning of Psalm 99:5

Discuss with your kids what “footstool” means in this Psalm. As explained in some commentaries, the earth is God’s footstool. Often understanding what a child is reciting will help them more readily memorize it.

Encourage your child to draw their interpretation of God and a footstool on the worksheets if you’re using the Children’s ABC Bible Lessons.

The tune for Psalm 99:5 isn’t as upbeat as the others in the ABC series but as we get to the very end of the alphabet, it becomes more difficult to find verses and corresponding songs.

Hopefully, your kids are either excited to finish and are up for the challenge or maybe they are willing to come up with their own tune. If not, this verse is fairly short so I think they can catch on to this one and run with it.

Weekly verses

After my kids learned all 26 verses we played games to seal in the memorization. We didn’t begin memorizing new verses, because let’s be realistic – 26 verses is A LOT! Start getting your kids excited now for the games you can play after verse Z.
