A Prayer for the Next Generation to Be Amazed by God
Description
📖 Bible Verse: Judges 2:10b (CSB) “…After them another generation rose up who did not know the Lord or the works he had done for Israel.”
✨ Devotional Overview:
Today’s devotional is a call to action for every believer: to stir up awe, wonder, and faith in the hearts of the next generation. Megan Evans shares the powerful story of an 11-year-old girl who had never heard of Adam and Eve—an unforgettable reminder that biblical illiteracy is real, even in our own communities.
Evans draws a stark contrast between the days of Joshua—when God's works were told and remembered—and the generational drift that followed. Her reflection on Judges 2:10 reminds us that faith fades when it is not shared, and that it's our responsibility to pass on the truth, love, and power of God to those coming after us.
