The youth take The land.

The Lord is going to use the young people of this generation to take back the land. As we've seen the beginning of this at Asbury college & other universities, it is a sign for the pattern to come. If you understand the verses below Saul & Ahab were wicked kings that God still used to defeat His enemies on the battlefield. While these 2 verses took place in different eras in Israel's history, we see that The God of Isreal used the younger generation to initiate a turning point in Israel's society. When David stepped on the scene as a young man & defeated Goliath it set something in motion, David became noticed by the people in Israel eventually taking the throne. The line of the Messiah (Jesus Christ) would be visible for all to see. It would be established forever & the people of Israel, after much conflict, would eventually know David was the rightful anointed King. The young leaders in the day of Ahab led the fight against The Syrian army & defeated them twice. This allowed Israel to take back the cities they previously lost to Syria. When you look at the Hebrew word for youth/young which is (na'ar) it brings to light how God used younger people inexperienced in battle to defeat His enemies during the time of evil monarchies & relative apostasy.

naʿar: nah´-ar; from 5287; (concordance.) a boy (as active), from the age of infancy to adolescence, (younger man)naʿar. The glory of young men is their strength, And the splendor of old men is their gray head (Prov 20:29)

1 Kings 20:13–14: Suddenly a prophet approached Ahab king of Israel, saying, “Thus says the Lord: ‘Have you seen all this great multitude? Behold, I will deliver it into your hand today, and you shall know that I am the Lord.’ ”
So Ahab said, “By whom?”
And he said, “Thus says the Lord: ‘By the young (na'ar) leaders of the provinces.’ ”
Then he said, “Who will set the battle in order?”

1 Samuel 17:33: And Saul said to David, “You are not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him; for you are a youth(na'ar), and he a man of war from his youth.”
