Leave a Legacy
"God is into generations and families, and He wants us to hand off an inheritance to the next generation in a favorable way."
~ Dr. Kevin L. Zadai
After you watch the video and read the study notes on this page, answer these questions here on the Blog mentioned above:
A good man leaves an inheritance to his children’s children.
—Proverbs 13:22
DISCUSSION:
Leaving a legacy is preparing something as an earmark for the generation that you live in, and for the generations to come. We don't know when Jesus is coming back, and it's not for us to know these things but it is our responsibility to be ready. We're going to be ready and be prepared.
At Warrior Notes, we're all about discipling, mentoring, and getting people ready for what God will have them do. I expect that He will do many miracles in your life.
Leaving a legacy is a plan that God began because He wanted a family. That's why He created the human race. He put Adam and Eve on the Earth. He created the earth and the garden for man. He had plans for a family, and satan got in and stole that from Him. Now the redemption process has happened, and we're at the end of the age. The body of Christ is on the earth, and we have the family of believers in Heaven and the family on earth. The harvest needs to come in because God wants to take as many people as possible that He can buy back. That’s why we need to preach the good news and tell people that they've been redeemed and they need to accept Jesus.
Your responsibility is to do something from your books written in Heaven, that causes you to leave a legacy. Leaving a legacy is making a notable mark or entry into history. Abraham made a mark, and because of it, Isaac came forth and made a mark. Then Jacob came, and he left a mark and became Israel. Then we had Joseph who was a descendant of Jacob. Joseph made history, left a legacy and a mark, and it goes on, and on.
God is into generations and families. He wants us to hand off an inheritance to the next generation in a favorable way. To do that, you have to have the mindset of God being a good God and a good Father that wants to do good things for His people. He leaves an inheritance. We’re allowed to prosper and leave that inheritance for our children, and we disciple people in the process and get them prepared for what God will have them do.
GENERATIONS WILL TELL OF WHO HE IS
❖ Psalm 145:4 TPT:
Generation after generation will declare more of your greatness and declare more of your glory.
• Every generation, as it follows the next generation will increase.
• Generation after generation will be declaring.
• It says, “When they declare your greatness, they're going to declare more of your greatness, and more of your glory.”
• Each generation is going to declare more and more.
When I was growing up, I remember being in elementary school and in junior high thinking, “I know that God has a plan for me. I don't understand why I am having to go through what I'm going through,” and I couldn't understand the process because of the way things are structured here for education. It just didn't seem like I was getting what I needed. I didn't understand the whole thing because I was just a child. I remember thinking that only God could show me and help me get to where I needed to be. What I wanted in my heart was to declare His greatness and encounter His glory. That has happened, and now I'm encountering it, and I want to share it with everybody. If I think generationally, then I will do as much as I can to leave a legacy for everyone, and I’m going to do it in a way where it'll be available to the next generation. They’ll be able to eat from that same fruit and prosper and grow in the knowledge of God. That is the point of why we're doing Warrior Fellowships. We can reach more people through all of you and our students. We have 27,000 students and I don’t doubt that we will grow to 250,000. I want to leave a legacy to the next generation.
Discuss the reasons why you want to leave a legacy. Who is it for and why? What drives and motivates you?

❖ Psalm 78:4 TPT:
We’ve heard true stories from our fathers about our rich heritage. We will continue to tell our children and not hide from the rising generation the great marvels of our God— his miracles and power that have brought us all this far.
• This is talking about the faithfulness of God.
• We need to let God do amazing miracles in our lives.
• We need to ask Him for help, and we need Him to reveal His faithfulness to us.
• We need Him to speak to us and cause us to move into miracles, signs, and wonders. We do that by testifying about Jesus.
The Spirit of prophecy is the testimony of Jesus (Revelation 19:10). When we begin to talk about Jesus, the power of God comes. I'm so in love with Jesus because He has saved me. He visited me and sent me back from the dead. When He taught me what He did about the Bible, I should have already known that. I had been to Bible school, but He had to come and say to me, "I want you to transfer something to another generation. I don't want you to just know this for yourself. I sent you back to tell the people about what you saw and heard when you were with me in Heaven."
The enemy is going to be mad and he will fight that, but I want you to hear the stories that I've told you and the stories from Generals that have lived before us. These great people have influenced me, and I talk about their stories. At a certain point though, I had to get to where the Lord was moving in my life. I had testimonies, and I began sharing those. I realized that I needed to encourage everybody out there.
We have to transfer our stories to the next generation and tell our kids about God's faithfulness. They have seen so many terrible things happening in the world. Some of the children are traumatized and the adults are as well, but the gospel is always true. Jesus is always going to be true. We don't know when Jesus is coming back, so we can’t allow the devil to steal our testimony from this generation. We have to leave a legacy.
Keep testifying and sharing about God and His faithfulness. Share the love of Jesus and talk about the Holy Spirit and the Ministry of the Holy Spirit. Be bold about it. Don't be bashful. Ask the Lord to give you testimonials to move in your life and do miracles. Confirm the word that you're speaking with signs and wonders following (Mark 16:20). God wants everybody to be saved. God sees them as getting saved, He doesn't want anyone to perish. He wants everyone to know that they have been purchased with the blood of Jesus.
PRAYER:
Father, I thank You so much for your faithfulness. I thank You that the power of God is present right now. Everyone, wherever you're meeting all over the world, Father, You're just going to touch by Your Spirit right now and I ask, Lord by the Spirit of God that You touch, and that the gifts of prophecy would come forth right now. That the Spirit would have free course moving in the hearts of men and women right now and prophesying, speaking forth boldly the testimony and the faithfulness of God in their country. In their state wherever you're at that you just start to prophesy and worship God and tell Him how faithful He is. Father, I thank You that through this Spirit of prophecy all over the world and all the fellowships that it would just break open the spiritual darkness and cause light to come in and that Father, that everyone would be moved upon to start to move in the miracles and make history and leave a legacy in their country and their state wherever they're at. I thank You, Lord, that there's a turnaround coming. I thank You for supernatural finances and supernatural healing coming right now and a supernatural visitation by your Spirit in Jesus' name, Amen.
Discuss:
1. What could you do in your personal life to leave a mark on history?
2. How will you share the testimony of Jesus in your life with others? Talk about the faithfulness of God amongst yourselves, share your stories, and testify.
3. Pray with one another and for anyone with specific needs or prayer requests.
