Day 3 - 21 Day Fast

Day 3 - Pray for the Next Generation


Read
Psalm 145:3-7, 1 Timothy 4:12, Jeremiah 1:4-8

You may have noticed that each generation likes to blame other generations for problems. Older people often look critically upon younger generations for doing things differently. Younger people often get frustrated with older generations for not being more progressive.

But God is clear that every demographic is precious to him. We are as much His beloved children at 16 as we are at 60. And we have as much purpose in our 80s as we did in our 20s.

Psalm 145:4 instructs those who are older to tell of God’s awesome works and mighty acts to those who are younger. At every age and stage, let’s encourage and build the faith of those coming behind us by sharing how we have seen God at work through the years.

Praise
  • What were your hopes, dreams, fears, and insecurities 5, 10, or 15 years ago? Consider how God has protected you through the years. 
Repentance
  • What might you need to repent of in relation to the way you treat people younger or older than you?
Ask
  • We all need spiritual mothers and fathers to show us how to love God and live the life He has for us. Ask God to call mature believers into our youth ministry. 
Yield
  • Reread today’s verses paying special attention to the relationship between generations. Allow God to show you where you fit in the generational ministry of our church.
