MARKING YOUR GENERATION WITH IMPACT

SCRIPTURE:  “And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing” – Genesis 12:2
 
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: A person marks his generation when he begins to exist as a generational problem solver.
 
Marking your generation simply means, making a mark or impact that cannot be erased in your generation. It is being a generational blessing and not a burden. It is to exist as a generational asset and not a liability.
 
When you come to the point where your absence is felt and your presence is noticed, then, you are making a mark in your generation.
 
A person marks his generation when he begins to exist as a generational problem solver. There are people who do not just exist; they are those who solve generational problems like Joseph. When there was food crisis (famine) in Egypt, he was used by God to solve that problem in that generation. Nehemiah also existed as a generational solution provider; he rebuilt the broken walls of Jerusalem.
 
Beloved, there are two categories of people: those who are part of the problems and those who are part of the solutions – which category do you belong to?
 
My counsel is, be a solution provider to your family, office, school, etc. Let those that know you be happy that they are associated with you. 
 
Receive the grace to be a blessing rather than a burden now in Jesus’ Name.
 
Remember this: A person marks his generation when he begins to exist as a generational problem solver.
 
ASSIGNMENT (S) 
1. Determine to always proffer solutions wherever you find yourself. 
2. Consciously exist as a blessing rather than a burden.
 
PRAYER: LORD, I thank You for Your Word to me today; help me to be an asset and not a liability to my family, friends, colleagues and my generation in Jesus’ Name.
