Are You Ready For War - How To Be A Leader Who Never Gives Up
ARE YOU READY FOR WAR?
Jeremiah 18:2-6 NLT
“Go down to the potter’s shop, and I will speak to you there.” So I did as he told me and found the potter working at his wheel. But the jar he was making did not turn out as he had hoped, so he crushed it into a lump of clay again and started over. Then the Lord gave me this message: “O Israel, can I not do to you as this potter has done to his clay? As the clay is in the potter’s hand, so are you in my hand.”
I am excited about this 21 Days of Prayer and Fasting...
I can see God working through His church already as I speak with people about what they are believing God for and the things God has asked them to lay down for this season.
As leaders...and BC team, you will carry the spiritual weight, and be engaged on the FRONT LINES of the spiritual battle that is being waged for the eternal destiny of those lost people in our world.
Good news is that it is God who trains our hands for warfare.
Psalms 144:1 NKJV
“Blessed be the LORD my Rock, Who trains my hands for war, And my fingers for battle—”
How does God train us? Well he shakes us and moulds on his potters wheel....
‘Let GOD perform the miracle while YOU practice the principle.’
Some people are trying to perform God’s miracles for Him....God doesn’t need you to be a miracle worker, He needs you to remain faithful to His principles.
The Potter’s Wheel- THIS is where GOD makes our SMALL stuff a BIG DEAL!
This is where God shapes us, prepares us for the function he has called us into. Trains us, equips us for the battle we will face.
God goes to work on you one revolution at a time...one year at a time, one month at a time, one week at a time, one day at a time.
There is a key here for us as leaders - God uses the rhythms, habits, routines and disciplines of our life to shape us! The more we lean into spiritual disciplines, the more we will grow into the likeness of Jesus, the more we will be equipped to engage in the spiritual battles we face.
This key not only helps us lead our own lives well, it empowers us to speak into the lives of those whom we lead...
It answers the question....how do I FIGHT?
DON’T GET OFF THE WHEEL....keep turning up, be in the room, be in Life group, be on team, say yes to the next revolution God has for you....
..and then once we’ve spent
a season on the wheel....maybe God starts again, puts you on the shelf or if you’re really favoured...into the kiln) ...
For those of us who are ready for war, this is Paul’s promise to us ...
2 Corinthians 4:7-9 TPT
“We are like common clay jars that carry this glorious treasure within, so that the extraordinary overflow of power will be seen as God’s, not ours. Though we experience every kind of pressure, we’re not crushed. At times we don’t know what to do, but quitting is not an option.
