Parents, Children & Destiny |
|||||
God desires for His sons to 'know the purposes of their lives and the Significant destiny concerning them.' Children should also know the Significant measures that surround their existence. Purpose does not 'take away the years of a child.' It enhances the years of the child.
When a young person realizes the Significance of their life, and their prophetic frequency, it will give them better insight into 'the functionality of their peer group, and also assist them during adolescence.' It will give them a powerful foundation from which to 'chart the course of their lives, and yet experience the joys of discovery, friendships, and youthful zest.' We, as parents, must understand the embrace the power that comes as a result of Significant purpose. We also should realize that we, too, are responsible for knowing 'why we were born.' Church activities and functions 'are not the purpose for which you were born.' We cannot 'quench the intensity of destiny' by the activities of religion. We were not born to merely be faithful to the common interest of religious activity, but to express the strength, creativity, and wisdom that comes as a result of having the Mind, Mentality, and Substance of the Father, which was made possible in Christ. We must understand the we, as parents, were also born to effect nations, cities, regions, neighborhoods, and the cultural progressions of life. Purpose and destiny 'does not take the joys out of life.' It 'enhances the joys of life by creating a foundation that is true and sure.' It will give our children to capacity to handle the pressures of life and the function of the world even better because of their intimate knowledge of the reasons concerning their birth. |
We
have read of children in the Scripture that reigned as kings at the mere
age of 8 years old. But have we realized that the same potential of
anointing 'resides in the atmosphere of our present lives today?' The
Move of God in homes and youth are not 'merely to get our children to
church services, but to Total Service to the Father as a result of
embracing their unique significance from Christ.'
The 'revival in the earth' is stirring an even greater depth of desire in our youth. It is not the desire of the religious, nor of denominational dogma. It is not even the 'doctrine of our forefathers.' However, the passion of the visionary hope that once 'trail-blazed throughout the world, is once again 'alive and well.' Our offspring are being 'driven to see something far beyond the walls of religion, complacency, and the mundane.' They are not looking for the miracles that we have grown accustomed to seeing in our past, but for the 'new expression of God that is relevant for the generation that they were born to redefine.' Their 'non-interest of the ways of the past is not rebellion.' They merely were not made to 'eat from the tables of past dimension.' I speak of past expressions of religion. I am not speaking of God, Himself. God is God in any season, generation, and dispensation. Adolescence does not have the power to 'take away Significance.' Choices still must be made by mature minds, whether you know your purpose or not. However, you must realize that purpose 'is not merely something you know.' It is what 'you are.' Your personality is conformed and created by 'your destiny and purpose.' You may even have a child that was conformed to the image of the parents personality, and still show 'signs of prophetic element in their lifestyle.' When this happens, the child will not be able to embrace 'their full identity or expression.' Rebellion comes as a result of 'being born one thing, and at the same time, being conformed into another thing.' Abuse is when you use an object that was created to fulfill one purpose, to do another. It is the most 'sincere area of abuse we all have been guilty of. (Using a face towel to wash the car. Standing on chairs to change the light bulb. Using a book as a doorstop or as a 'fill in leg' for the couch. Remember those 'fill-in couch legs?')

This
move of God 'will not take place in tents.' It will not a recycled
version of Azusa Street and the move of 1906. It will not be an 'updated
or upgraded version' of movements that have produced many
'personalities, but failed in it's production of true sons of God.'
Great movements have produced great gifts and discoveries. But 'great
moves must also produce sons that possess lingering legacies of the
Kingdom Life for generations.' If I have to keep 'looking back to the
founder' then I have not progressed to far. But if I capture 'the
essence of the breakthrough, the surging force of the Holy Spirit that
initiated a Great Stir, a Great Trouble, and a Great Change, then I have
caught something.
Our youth are being 'stirred by the passion that some of us have no clue about.' They are being 'moved by the mentality' that can cause us to 'scratch our head.' You must understand that some of the 'foolishness that kids do' are not merely 'the foolishness that kids do.' We, as parents of those who will affect culture, must discern the times. If we discern the child, the times, and the purpose, we will also discern the investments needed to mentor destiny. Destiny is not 'confined to the church.' Destiny is not confined to 'the serious minded or the deep thinkers of life.' We all have the responsibility of knowing and living from the purpose in which we were born. Ask yourself this question. What was a I born to do? What am I born 'to be?' There is a success that comes with simply doing what's needed to have success. Then, there is a success that comes from living from your birth assignment. You may experience many trials, bruises, and crazy things along the way. But destiny has a way 'of keeping you faithful and true, even when you are experiencing the worst case scenarios of life. There are some successes that people experience 'that did not come from the passion of their birth assignments. It will be hard to 'create a new experience in destiny' when your 'own hands have given you much to be thankful for.'
