Devotion for Leaders
Monday, December 17, 2012 by Charlotte S. Snead

 

Last week we heard a Call to War, and looked at the female company in Psalm 68, and end time psalm.

We saw a meltdown, and we went to war. We picked up our wounded and carried her to the Throne of heaven.

And that is OK: News Flash: We are not Perfect.

                                                I certainly am not perfect.

I God waited until He had found a Perfect Man                  

            . . .  He would not have slain the giant by David—who later committed adultery and murder

            He would not have preached the Sermon on the Day of Pentecost through Peter—who later turned his back on freedom in Christ by reverting to Jewish Law.

How much spiritual growth and deliverance comes from when we are unable to do what we know we must do, and we cry out to God?

You are leaders because God called you to be here, this year, in this place. So you are not perfect, so you cannot do it. Good! He can.

            . . recognize you are weak=good, you will be dependent on God.

Satan’s lie: you cannot do this! You? A leader?

10 lepers: Luke 17: 11-14

            When were they healed? As they went.

Isaiah 6:1-8: When was Isaiah called. . . .recognition of Who God is and how sinful he was

            Who made him fit to serve?

Gideon: Judges 7 . . .lest Israel vaunt themselves . . . saying Mine own hand hath saved me    

 John 9:11: Go, wash in the pool of Siloam (=Sent)
