jayson-sloan-smallThe interesting thing seen in Joshua 5 is the anointing of the "Second Generation," to continue the work that the former generation started.  The Lord speaks to Joshua and says circumcise this generation, all of the males.  He was ready to separate them to progress Israel into the place of promise.  They were all circumcised, which prepared them to fight as one man.  Joshua led one of the most successful armies in the scripture.  He did with a group that were born in the wilderness, which represents the place of “just enough” and their job was to make into the place of promise "more than enough."

When you look at the young generation today, "Generation Me," it is easy to see they have not experienced the place of bondage that there parents experienced in Egypt.  Most of them were not born in a season of "not enough."  They don’t understand struggle, thus the as the Lord speaks to Joshua, he also speaks to Youth Leaders across the world to prepare this generation to be circumcised.  Not a physical circumcision, but a spiritual one.  Rom 2:28 states that there must be a change of heart.  The youth of America must have a change of heart to make it in there place of promise and this is the job of every Youth Leader.  We must realize that we have to get this generation into the place of promise so those of the mindset of Caleb, will get what was promised.  This is not just about the wealth but about being able to sustain the harvest that needs to come in of souls.

Do you think it’s wrong to listen to musical genres outside of gospel? For example, Linkin Park, Jay-Z, Lady GaGa, etc?
