Chosen Generation
There is a rising army of believers who are a powerful force in the kingdom of God. Often times they go by seemingly unnoticed. They rank in age from the unborn to at least nineteen. They are a generation who is hungry for the supernatural. They are passionate about knowing their Lord and making a difference. Many are beginning to get a revelation that they are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus, and have been given all authority over the power of the enemy. They are rising up much like David when he confronted Goliath bearing an indignant holy anger.
There is a network of young people behind the scenes interceding while they lay in bed at night, participate on prayer teams and corporate prayer with their parents or simply while they are attending Sunday morning worship. You pass them in the grocery isles, watch them play on basketball teams and even sit with them at your own kitchen table. They may even appear to you as clumsy, forgetful, irresponsible and silly, but in prayer, they get down to business. They are partnering with their Heavenly Father to accomplish His will in the earth. They leave their place of prayer satisfied and full of purpose. Their life has meaning and many carry a smile on their face and a twinkle in their eye. They always have an answer of faith on their tongue and when things go wrong they know the emergency first response: PRAY!! Have you recognized yet that you are among chosen great ones? What are we to do with them? What are we to do with the ones whom “we” know they’re called, but they don’t know it yet? As parents and grandparents, we are to raise them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord, regardless of what we see with our natural eyes. We are to love them with the love described in I Corinthians 13, the same love that God Himself is and expresses to us. And lastly, we are to trust God, pray and release our children so that they may flourish in the things that God has prepared for them that love Him. May you be encouraged today as parents, grandparents and even spiritual mothers and fathers to stay the course! Continue in the things the Lord has entrusted in your care and seek Him for guidance and the answers you need. You won’t be sorry as you sit on the sidelines and watch these precious young ones that you mentored, who are participating in ushering the coming of our Lord!

A New and Living Way
You
don’t have to look very far to notice how the enemy has “upped” the
level of pressure and opportunities for our young people. Sex,
drugs, alcohol, porn, homosexuality, and witchcraft pour through
magazines, books, television, radio, etc. and seem to be penetrating
every sense realm imaginable. At times you might even perceive that
the very atmosphere around you is saturated with evil. Why?
Because I believe we are living among some of the most mighty
spiritual warriors of all time.
