We live in a nation that must be turned to God. There are many difficult nation-affecting challenges before us and the coming generation. Every challenge and difficulty that we do not meet and overcome in our generation is weight that gets added to the load of difficulties that our children will have to deal with, and that is added on top of the ones they will have to handle in their own generation. Those challenges require much more than a viewpoint which expresses a belief that they will be met and adequately handled by divine fiat in a time period that is yet to come. The Israelite generation exiting Egypt viewed the challenges before them as giants and themselves as grasshoppers (Num.13:33). The giant/grasshopper mindset was not a Promised-Land-possessor mindset. After the giant/grasshopper mindset generation died off, there finally arose fathers (Josh.14:10-13) with a give-me-that-mountain mindset that produced a take-the-land-mentality generation—not a generation of mere survivors, but one of possessors.

Your Home #25—May your home be a place throughout this season and may your family be like warm coals that release warmth to one another and also those who are shivering under the coldness of hopelessness, illness and despair. May those struggling in cold despair find you and your family like a warm fire to sit beside.
