I love reading testimonies of ministers that lived hundreds of years ago. Some of their testimonies are amazing. I was reading a book recently about a minister from the 1800s and had this thought:

If she had all those miracles and salvations in her services, God must be doing some mighty things through her great grandchildren 200+ years later.

After some research, I found an article that brought tears to my eyes. The family knew nothing about her until one of them came across a book about her ministry. 
 
I wondered... How is it that generations begin to lose what God had begun?

 
Being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a 

good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ. 

Philippians 1:6 (NKJV)

I’ve always looked at that scripture as concerning us individually but look at it again. Can you also see it being about our generations to come? We can't lose ground! 

The Lord shall increase you more and more, you and your children. 

Psalm 115:14 (NKJV)

We should leave something for God to build on - to work with - in our kids, our grandkids, our great-grandkids, generation after generation after generation. It shouldn’t stop with us. We know these are the last of the last days and God could have put us here at any time, but He chose this time.

Have you ever stopped to think...

"What did God put in me that He needed me here at this specific time?" And if that’s not sobering enough, just imagine what He must have put in your children.

We have an assignment. Not just to raise up our kids but to RAISE UP OUR KIDS for such a time as this!

Don't let that good work that began in you...STOP with you!
