Judges 2:10
And all that generation also were gathered to their fathers. And there arose another generation after them who did not know the Lord or the work that he had done for Israel.
Tag: Transition of Leadership
The above verse is a great principal for believers to grasp. When we fail to teach and transition someone to take leadership we risk the beliefs, values and purpose of our lives being lost to the next generation. Moses taught Joshua. Joshua did not teach anyone to fill his spot. To his defense, Joshua was a follower of God and his job was to get the twelve-tribes to the promise land. Each tribe was to go out, on their own, to secure the land. Joshua was not instructed to train his assistant. Yet, the failure of that tasks not being completed, produced the above statement. When we fail to train the younger generation they will forget God and they will fail to carry out the Word of God.
