When You Experience Great Distress In Leadership
Transcript:
“But David strengthened himself in the Lord his God.” Bryan Fischer here with the Life and Liberty Minute. While David and his men were at war, the Amalekites burned their home town to the ground and kidnapped their families. David and his men wept until there were no more tears left to weep. To make things worse, his men blamed David for the whole thing and wanted to stone him to death. A reality of life is if you’re in leadership, whether it’s in your home or in business or sports or ministry, there is no such as a string of unbroken successes. That can produce a tremendous amount of stress in us as it did in David. We’re likely to get less praise than we deserve and we may get blamed for things that are not our fault and outside our control. We must do what David did - strengthen ourselves in God and inquire of him until we hear from him and he shows us the way forward.
