編按:本篇信息整理自2007年9月15~26日(猶太曆5768年吹角節至住棚節前)耶路撒冷萬國禱告特會的金門守望班次(6:00-8:00AM)內容。

本文所稱的「約書亞世代」是指在1967年6月7日之後出生的人(因為40年前,也就是1967年6月7日,以色列重新奪回耶路撒冷,使耶路撒冷再次合一成為以色列的首都。)無花果樹(象徵以色列)開始開花,並且以色列與大部分列國也開始經歷極大的復興。許多人從主得到同樣的領受,相信這正興起的世代,即:約書亞世代--是最後一個世代。耶穌在路加福音21:32說:「這世代還沒有過去,這些事都要成就」,我們相信這世代指的就是那些在1967年6月之後出生的這一代。

約書亞世代,又稱「以利沙世代」;又有人稱它「最後的世代」或「完成的一代」(路加福音21:32),也是「錫安之子的世代」。所謂「錫安之子」是他們將如同啟示錄14:4-5所說:「這些人未曾沾染婦女,他們原是童身。羔羊無論往那裡去,他們都跟隨祂。他們是從人間買來的,作初熟的果子歸與神和羔羊。在他們口中察不出謊言來;他們是沒有瑕疵的。」這世代也是前所未有大收割的日子。
