A Leadership Insight
I was reflecting on this scripture this morning and the idea that we, as leaders, must change first to affect change for our households, businesses and ministries. Others will not or cannot change until we do. If we expect greater outcomes, it is on us to drive the change.
We must prepare ourselves for the battle; here are a couple of ways:
Dream Bigger to See Farther!
We must dream bigger dreams and think bigger thoughts according to the limits of God. This causes his super to be added to our natural by faith.
”for all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed for ever.“
Genesis 13:15 KJV
”And it shall be, when the LORD thy God shall have brought thee into the land which he sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give thee great and goodly cities, which thou buildedst not, and houses full of all good things, which thou filledst not, and wells digged, which thou diggedst not, vineyards and olive trees, which thou plantedst not; when thou shalt have eaten and be full; then beware lest thou forget the LORD, which brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.“
Deuteronomy 6:10-12 KJV
Desire Bigger to Create Capacity , Hunger and Thirst!
”The fear of the wicked, it shall come upon him: But the desire of the righteous shall be granted.“ Proverbs 10:24 KJV
”Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.“
Matthew 5:6 KJV
Get greater Joy for Strength for the Journey!
”Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared: for this day is holy unto our Lord: neither be ye sorry; for the joy of the LORD is your strength.“
Nehemiah 8:10 KJV
Break up our fallow ground:
”Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy; break up your fallow ground: for it is time to seek the LORD, till he come and rain righteousness upon you.“ Hosea 10:12 KJV
Gird our loins:
”Thou therefore gird up thy loins, and arise, and speak unto them all that I command thee: be not dismayed at their faces, lest I confound thee before them.“ Jeremiah 1:17 KJV
Find instructions in the Word:
”Teach me, O LORD, the way of thy statutes; And I shall keep it unto the end. Give me understanding, and I shall keep thy law; Yea, I shall observe it with my whole heart. Make me to go in the path of thy commandments; For therein do I delight.“ Psalm 119:33-35 KJV
”Blessed be the LORD my strength, Which teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight:“Psalm 144:1 KJV
Take Action for Now is the Time:
”(For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, And in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)“
2 Corinthians 6:2 KJV
In closing:
As we commit to soaking ourselves in the Word this year, we will see our wounds healed and an abundance of wealth, riches, favour, peace and clarity in our lives.
At the end, we will testify of the transformation that occurred.
Thank you Lord that you said in your word:
”Arise, walk through the land in the length of it and in the breadth of it; for I will give it unto thee.“. Genesis 13:17 KJV
We receive it by faith, in Jesus name.
Be Blessed!
Be a Blessing!
”The disciple is not above his master, nor the servant above his Lord.
It is enough for the disciple that he be as his master, and the servant as his Lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more shall they call them of his household?“
Matthew 10:24-25 KJV
