From The Wilderness to Destiny: By Pastor Joe
The young generation that was part of the exodus from Egypt is a symbolic representation of todays young
generation. Like the young people trapped in the wilderness, between apathy and the promise of God, young
people today are also surrounded by unbelief, loss vision and no purpose in the mist of great opportunities. The
wilderness was a contaminated environment created by the leaders, overseers and parents. Those that should
have been a light and guide had fallen prey to discouragement, seduced to give up because of giants, big things
that presented themselves as obstacles. This stagnated attitude had the potential to be transferred to the
younger generation, robbing them of their destiny. However God raised up two men, Caleb and Joshua who did
not give up on the promises of God, imparted their faith to the younger generation and lead them into the place
God promise they would own. The Millennias (ages between 18 29) face challenges and issues that would like
to see them fail to reach their potential. We must continue to believe Gods Word, let us like Caleb and Joshua
refuse to give up on God, and allow Him to used us to transfer this faith to the younger generation and escort
them from the wilderness to their destiny, for they are the Next Church.

Identity By Way of Assignment
By Pastor Joe
There is an Identity Crisis among
our young people today. The
younger generation have a strong
sense of independence, slow to
adapt to traditions of their
parents, while not being sure who
they are or what they want. This
younger generation resides in a
constant self-discovery mode.
They are searching to find the
meaning of life and whats in it for
them. This uncertainty makes
them prime candidates to fall prey
to negative and destructive
influences. 2 Timothy provides a
perfect illustration of a non-
purposeful live influenced by
negative forces.
You must understand that in the
last days there will come times of
much trouble. People will love
themselves and money. They will
have pride and tell of all the things
they have done. They will speak
against God. Children and young
people will not obey their parents.
People will not be thankful and
they will not be holy. They will not
love each other. No one can get
along with them. They will tell lies
about others. They will not be able
to keep from doing things they
know they should not do. They will
be wild and want to beat and hurt
those who are good. They will not
stay true to their friends. They will
act without thinking. They will
think too much of themselves.
They will love fun instead of loving
God. They will do things to make it
look as if they are Christians. But
they will not receive the power
that is for a Christian. Keep away
from such people. 2 Timothy 3:1-
6 (NLV)
In addition to establishing a
relationship with Christ, one of the
ways to help young people deal
with identity Crisis is to help
them discover what they have
been assigned in life to do. God
endowed each individual with the
ability to believe (to have faith)
Romans 12:3. God also placed in
each of us gifts and callings
Romans 11:29. Gifts and callings
equip us with the ability to carry
out an assigned task, an
assignment. Your assignment is
divinely determined by God, once
tapped into, has in its DNA, the
ability to provide: purpose,
direction, deliverance, provision
and identity. Our prayer is for God
Helping young people discover themselves by embracing
their God given gifts and callings.
to supply us the wisdom and
strategies to help young people
connect with what they have been
assigned to do .
This connection can be achieved
several ways. First and foremost
the agenda of our outreach
programs, that target young
people, must be to help them
recognize and become engaged
with their assignment.
Secondly, we must give young
people opportunities (those that
teach responsibility and
accountability) to begin to exercise
their gifts and talents.
A fish out of water is dysfunction-
al, not capable of fulfilling its
assignment, however when placed
into water their genius is released.
Lets help young people unite with
their assignments, which will
reveal their true identity.

The Bible states but where sin
increased, grace multiplied all the
more Romans 5:20 (NET). This
alerts the believer to the fact that in
God there is always hope for
tomorrow. This applies to the status
of todays young people. In the mist
of what seems to be a lost cause
there remains a remnant of young
people that are committed to God
and to the assignments that he has
placed within them. This truth is
displayed in the life of Rodrick
Lawson. The son of Reginald and
Marie Lawson, a graduate of the
University of South Florida, major-
ing in English. In 2013 Rodrick and
Dena Daniel a law school graduate,
founded Blessed 2 Be A Blessing.
Blessed 2 Be A Blessing, is made up
of over 30 young people who feed
the homeless. Rodrick mentioned I
want to do it full time and include
healthcare and education initia-
tives. Rodricks favorite quote, that
of Marianne William, is the anthem
our his life, Our deepest fear is not
that we are inadequate. Our deep-
est fear is that we are powerful
beyond measure. It is our light, not
our darkness that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be
brilliant, gorgeous, talented,
fabulous?' Actually, who are you not
to be? You are a child of God...
Rodrick Lawson is proof positive that
there is hope for tomorrow.
