A Leadership Insight from Vision Multiplier International https://visionmultiplierllc.wordpress.com/
I was reflecting on this scripture this morning and was simply in awe with the realization of how precious the Word of God is.
We live in a world with increasing issues/ conflicts that, as leaders, we must anchor our souls knowing that the only real solution will be a heavenly solution given by Christ!
Christ has made it so that we don’t have to bear the burden and weight of the moment. We can rest in and trust him.
”Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me [following Me as My disciple], for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest (renewal, blessed quiet) for your souls.“
Matthew 11:29 AMP
Christ has also provided us access to godly wisdom so , by faith, we can download solutions for this hurting world. Scripture reminds us that:
“…the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom…”
Job 28:28 KJV
”If any of you lacks wisdom [to guide him through a decision or circumstance], he is to ask of [our benevolent] God, who gives to everyone generously and without rebuke or blame, and it will be given to him.
But he must ask [for wisdom] in faith, without doubting [God’s willingness to help], for the one who doubts is like a billowing surge of the sea that is blown about and tossed by the wind.
For such a person ought not to think or expect that he will receive anything [at all] from the Lord,“
James 1:5-7 AMP
The responsibility for seeking is on us:
”Then you will call on Me and you will come and pray to Me, and I will hear [your voice] and I will listen to you.
Then [with a deep longing] you will seek Me and require Me [as a vital necessity] and [you will] find Me when you search for Me with all your heart.
I will be found by you,’ says the Lord, ‘and I will restore your fortunes and I will [free you and] gather you from all the nations and from all the places where I have driven you,’ says the Lord, ‘and I will bring you back to the place from where I sent you into exile.’“
Jeremiah 29:12-14 AMP
By faith, we believe and cling to his promise:
”“Thus says the Lord who made the earth, the Lord who formed it to establish it—the Lord is His name, ‘Call to Me and I will answer you, and tell you [and even show you] great and mighty things, [things which have been confined and hidden], which you do not know and understand and cannot distinguish.’
Behold, [in the restored Jerusalem] I will bring to it health and healing, and I will heal them; and I will reveal to them an abundance of peace (prosperity, security, stability) and truth.
I will cleanse them from all their wickedness (guilt) by which they have sinned against Me, and I will pardon (forgive) all their sins by which they rebelled against Me.
Jerusalem will be to Me a name of joy, praise and glory before all the nations of the earth which will hear of all the good that I do for it, and they shall fear and tremble because of all the good and all the peace (prosperity, security, stability) that I provide for it.’“
Jeremiah 33:2-3, 6, 8-9 AMP
In closing: let us press in , do the Word, and see the Lord Be glorified.
”“Look, I have taught you statutes and judgments just as the Lord my God has commanded me, so that you may do them in the land which you are entering to possess.
So keep and do them, for that is your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the peoples who will hear all these statutes and say, ‘Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people.’
For what great nation is there that has a god so near to it as the Lord our God [is to us] whenever we call on Him?“
Deuteronomy 4:5-7 AMP
That is wisdom that is freely available to us!
Be Blessed!
Be a Blessing!
”And unto man he said, Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; And to depart from evil is understanding.“
Job 28:28 KJV
