Throughout the years many have tagged this generation with different titles such as, the Joshua Generation, Elisha Generation, and even the Benjamin Generation. All of those titles would fit this generation well, the only problem I find with all those titles and other titles that have been placed on this generation is that they all fall short of the glory that God is releasing upon the earth through this generation. I believe that we are seeing a generation being transformed by the love of God and they get a revelation of that love towards them, they will begin to walk in the reality of Matthew 6:10. Love is the key that unlocks the resources of heaven. If Matthew 6:10 is the standard and the model we are to live by, then love is the key to walk and live in that reality. The Father modeled it for us in John 3:16, “For God so loved the world, that He demonstration the greatest revelation of love mankind will ever know, by the sending His Son…” (Emphasis mine). The one thing that provoked the Father to releasing the Son to redeem all things was – Love!
I believe the standard and power this generation has been called to walk in is “The Power of Love.” Therefore, this generation will be known as a Generation of Lovers. As Paul mentions in 1 Corinthians 13; nothing matters, not even prophecy, tongues, miracles, signs, and wonders if it is not overshadowed with the power of love. Also, by us attempting to place a mantle of old upon this and future generations, they will never realize for themselves the newness of power, glory, and love they have been predestined to walk in today.
