Romans 12:2 (NIV)
Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing, and perfect will.
The Kingdom of Heaven is likened to a man who sowed good seed, but while everyone was sleeping, an enemy came and sowed weeds among the man’s produce. This parable gets these comparisons because too many Christians are sleeping when the work of God is not yet complete!
If you want to rise as a generational captain, you cannot allow any distractions to divert your attention from God. A true captain understands the importance of being strong in times of howling storms and crashing waves!
A generational captain does not get complacent or jump ship; they stick with it until their mission is complete. In the same way, as a child of God, refuse to let external forces get in the way of your calling and cause you to jump ship before you get to your destination. Refuse to listen to the voice of the devil. Instead, allow the Word of God to act as a mast and sail to propel you in all aspects of your life!
PROPHETIC DECLARATION
I am a generational captain! I will not sleep on the job. I refuse to let the enemy distract me from what God has called me to be. Amen.
