Angus encourages us to hand over the baton to the younger generation. Moses led the Israelites through the desert for 40 years and then handed the baton over to Joshua to lead them into the promised land. Moses touched God’s glory and was denied entry into the promised land. If he refused to hand over to Joshua, the Israelites would never have received the promise. Don’t be afraid to hand over the baton when the time comes.

All nations

Personal testimony
Hebrews 13:8, Colossians 1:27, Acts 6:10, Acts 10:15
Hebrews 13:8. There is nothing more powerful than a personal testimony. Acts 6:10, 15. Steven became the first martyr as he testified about the power of God. People are not interested in what we have to say, they are interested in what He, Jesus Christ, the Word of God has to say. Colossians 1:27. When they looked at Stephen they they thought that they were looking at an angel, because they could see Christ in him. When Jesus speaks, we need to listen up.
Confession
1 John 1:9, Psalm 32:5
We need to understand that if we belong to Jesus then we are of those people who say sorry if we have done something wrong. God is not looking for good people, but for godly people. Psalm 32:5. 1 John 1:9. God has given us a way out. There is immense power and freedom in saying sorry. The devil doesn't want us to confess our sins because it sets us free.
