To Know Him and Make Him Known – Day 26
Intention
To be a generation who will know Him and make Him known.
Scripture
“The earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof, the world and those who dwell therein, for he has founded it upon the seas and established it upon the rivers. Who shall ascend the hill of the Lord? And who shall stand in his holy place? He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who does not lift up his soul to what is false and does not swear deceitfully. He will receive blessing from the Lord and righteousness from the God of his salvation. Such is the generation of those who seek him, who seek the face of the God of Jacob.”
– Psalm 24:1–6
Reflection
For the last few years, we have been praying and preparing for a move of God in the youth of Australia, and I believe we are starting to see it. Earlier this year we saw hundreds of salvations in a school on the Gold Coast, and just last week saw over a hundred youth stand for Jesus at a school on the Sunshine Coast. God is moving in the schools, God is moving in youth groups, and God is moving on the streets. Just yesterday I saw three young guys get radically healed and give their lives to Jesus outside the hospital.
The world is saying a lot about this generation but this is what I see…
I see a generation with clean hands and pure hearts who will seek the face of God. I see a generation of righteous radicals rising up, sons and daughters of God who know who they are and Whose they are. I see a generation not waiting for a move of God, they are the move of God.
I see a generation set apart and set ablaze. The Spirit of the Lord is upon them to preach the good news and set the captives free. I see a generation stepping into the divine destiny for Australia as a nation chosen by God for a great move of the Holy Spirit. I see a generation encountering Jesus at the well and then running into the city to tell everyone about Him. I see a generation who will know Him and make Him known.
We have just launched Episode 1 of Made in Jesus – a documentary about young Aussies and their adventures sharing Jesus.

Prayer
Thank you, Jesus, that You love the youth of Australia and that You made a way through the cross for them to know You. I pray for a mighty wave of the Holy Spirit to sweep through schools and youth groups around the nation. I pray for more workers for the harvest to reach and disciple the next generation.
I thank you Lord for the prayers of the saints in generations before and I wage war with the prophetic words spoken over Australia, the great southland of the Holy Spirit, and a nation that You have chosen for a mighty revival that will impact every nation. I declare that now is the time, Jesus come and have Your way in Australia as it is in heaven. Amen.

Robin Millhouse, the main architect of South Australia's abortion reform laws, expressed the burden he carried for being part of that reform. “I deeply regret that the medical profession — and the lawyers — interpreted the law too widely. It has become abortion on demand. I did not intend it to be that.”
