We have got to have something more to offer the world we live in than that. Personally what has struck me is that I knew that kind of passion that I see in our young people in a big way and I have things to rekindle in me. We don’t want to be saying ‘isn’t it good God is doing something in the young people?’, that is a killer. We need to say ‘God, my hour, my day – for me, please rekindle the flame. The water is stirred, it is our opportunity, young and old to get into the water. Ask people to pray with you. I have had prayer and some words of knowledge – these are young Christians who are hearing God. I think we have just got to embrace that because there is a danger we say ‘that is great but it is just for the young people’, and it is like a prophet having no honour in their own country.
We have to respect and honour what God is doing.
It is humbling that some of these youngsters have only been Christians for months or a few years, they don’t know the Bible as well as some of us or they haven’t had the experience we have had, but actually they have heard God and encountered God which some of us, who consider ourselves ‘professionals’, long for in our lives. We have got to make the most of this time and be encouraged by what God is doing. There are some exciting things happening out there.
