Scripture:

Judges 2:7

7 So the people served the Lord all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the elders who outlived Joshua, who had seen all the great works of the Lord which He had done for Israel.

"Faithful Generations"

As we read this portion today, you should catch this truth: "If we are not faithful to teach the generation to come about the goodness of God, they will turn away to the world."   One of the repeated patterns in the book of Judges is that the people of God serve Him faithfully for a time, and they are blessed, have peace, and prosper in the land where they live. But then a generation would come and turn away from the Lord, and they would end up in captivity until the Lord would raise a deliverer.  This pattern still repeats today, if we lose sight of the importance of spreading the gospel, teaching it to our children, telling of His wondrous works in our lives, then we too will see a generation turned away.

We must be "Gospellers" those who share the good works of the Lord tell of what He has done for us, we must share it with the generations to come that they too might be blessed, that they too might serve the Lord all the days of their life, and we must teach them to do the same, so that we might raise up revival, raise up a Joshua Generation...

Father, I pray that we would be part of a Joshua Generation, a movement for the Kingdom of God. We have seen your wondrous works, we have seen your goodness, let us not let your works die in our hearts, but let them burst forth to the generations to come, let our generation be the catalyst for change, for a Holy people, do it in our time Lord, change us, change our future, let our hearts always be given over to you, in Jesus name!
