THE MAMA'S AND THE PAPA'S

January 7, 2017 THE MAMA'S AND THE PAPA'S The Lord says, I am raising up the men and women of faith to be mentors to the next generation of believers. They are those who are grounded in My word, know how to hear My voice, and are able to discern that which is spiritual from that which is carnal. They will disciple the younger one's and help them to discover their purpose for their lives, as they walk with them through their journey. They will train and equip them for their assignment ahead. They will mentor in stability through wisdom and love. These mentors will reach out and rescue those who are in desperate situations because they know what it is to pay the price as they have also been through difficult times. They will teach them submission and they will show them how to distinguish between what is good and what is evil. They will teach them how to walk and train them how to be led. They will teach them when to war, and teach them when to stand. They will train them how to be overcomers in every situation. They will not mentor from natural knowledge, but they will teach what they have learned through divine revelation from My word. They have studied to show themselves approved to train, encourage and support those who are still on milk. They will show them things to come and give them strategies and wisdom for the coming days. They are those who know My authority and walk in it. I am looking for men to train the young men how to be strong and very courageous. To train them in leadership and to be tenacious in spiritual warfare. To teach them how to be more than conqueror's in every battle. To encourage them to pursue the plan and calling on their lives and never retreat in battle. I am calling forth the Naomi's to train up the young Ruth's. The godly women who will comfort and teach the younger woman how to live a lifestyle of integrity, sincerity and respect. To teach them how to walk in humility, wisdom and honor in their relationships. I am calling forth the Elijahs to train and raise up Elishas with a double portion of their Spirit. To train the prophets and teach the younger ones how to be used in the gifts of the Holy Spirit. To show them how to follow in their footsteps and be used in miracles, signs and wonders with respect and reverence of the anointing on their lives. I am calling forth the Paul's to train up young Timothys in prayer. To teach them how to live godly lifestyles and show them how to refrain from sinful ways, and how to walk in the fear and admonition of the Lord. To teach them to be strong in what they believe, fan the flames and stir up the gifts that were given to them. To warn them against false teachings and false prophets, and to always endure hardness as good soldiers. Encourage them to never be ashamed of the gospel. These men and women of faith shall be the mentors who will prepare the younger generation for the days ahead. As they lead these young lambs, they will teach them how to walk in love at all times, and keep a clear conscience. They will advise them on righteousness and teach them to have clean hands and a pure heart. They will be an example to do justly, love mercy and walk humbly with Me. Demons tremble at the sound of their voice because they know their authority. I will give them the wisdom and knowledge that is required and I will be their guide as they lead these younger ones into a life of virtuous living. They will mentor not just with persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power says the Lord. Titus 2:1-10 But as for you, speak the things which are proper for sound doctrine: that the older men be sober, reverent, temperate, sound in faith, in love, in patience; the older women likewise, that they be reverent in behavior, not slanderers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things- that they admonish the young women to love their husbands, to love their children, to be discreet, chaste, homemakers, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be blasphemed. Likewise, exhort the young men to be sober-minded, in all things showing yourself to be a pattern of good works; in doctrine showing integrity, reverence, incorruptibility, sound speech that cannot be condemned, that one who is an opponent may be ashamed, having nothing evil to say of you. Exhort bondservants to be obedient to their own masters, to be well pleasing in all things, not answering back, not pilfering, but showing all good fidelity, that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Savior in all things. 1 Corinthians 2:4 -5 And my speech and my preaching were not with persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, that your faith should not be in the wisdom of men but in the power of God. Hebrews 5:14 But solid food belongs to those who are of full age, that is, those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil. Elaine Tavolacci
