The God of Generations

This past summer we took a trip to South Padre Island. It was a much needed vacation and sabbatical… There on the beach, my Heavenly Father baptized me and renewed me in a way that was urgent, contagious, and invigorating. There on the sandy beach, right where the Gulf of Mexico gathers and returns, the Lord reminded me that I am to be a voice crying out in the wilderness. He reminded me that I am called to the nations and to the GENERATIONS. And as I pondered this deep assignment, my heart began to open with compassion for the generations of the earth that are alive today. You see I believe that I am here on the earth at this appointed time for a reason. I believe that we are all not here by accident and our timing isn’t an accident either. The Lord has orchestrated this assignment of awakening and revival to the remnant that are alive on the earth today. We have been given the charge of pointing the lost, hurting, desperate, and dying people around us to Jesus. For He alone is the only hope for the world.

In the world today there is confusion, compromise, and convenience. People want fast, then faster. People would rather be right more than righteous. And we want everything now versus patiently waiting. Self-help has left us hollow and disillusioned. Fame is at our fingertips. Money and popularity rival with one another, yet both are bottomless pits that seems to swallow so many whole…

Though it seems that our world is changing fast and growing dimmer by the minute, God at times seems silent. We search to find Him or run towards comfort, believing that He is too far off to hear our cries when our desire for happiness, wholeness, and healing don’t align with our reality. Yet, I have been given a mandate to tell a generation that God is the same. He isn’t far off, even in our waywardness. He is close, knows us more intimately, and He alone bends to our desperate pleas and will answer. And though are world changes, He never will. He is the God of Generations, and His promises will remain!

Deuteronomy 7:9 “God, your God, is God indeed, a God you can depend upon. He keeps his covenant of loyal love with those who love Him and observe His commandments for a thousand generations…”

Over the next 12 Saturdays on Give That Girl A Mic we are going to look deeper into the six generations alive on the earth today and ask the question “Will our generation have to die off in order for a promise to be fulfilled?” Or will we awaken to the possibility that the promise is ours if we will only embrace it…
