A Leadership Insight from Vision Multiplier International https://visionmultiplierllc.wordpress.com/
I was reflecting on this scripture this morning, and the thought that, as leaders, we always have more time demands than time to accomplish tasks. We must be selective with our energy allocation.
Feelings we experience are: a sense of overwhelm, a sense that we’re not good enough for the assignment, or maybe a sense that our current actions are not sufficient.
Deadlines are being missed, we are having issues fitting in the demands of leadership, family, health and or relationships.
It feels impossible to win in all areas.
But I hear the spirit of God saying to us:
“But He said, “The things that are impossible with people are possible with God.” [Gen 18:14; Jer 32:17]”
Luke 18:27 AMP
Amen
I am so grateful that we serve a true and living God that understands and helps us:
“For we do not have a High Priest who is unable to sympathize and understand our weaknesses and temptations, but One who has been tempted [knowing exactly how it feels to be human] in every respect as we are, yet without [committing any] sin.
Therefore let us [with privilege] approach the throne of grace [that is, the throne of God’s gracious favor] with confidence and without fear, so that we may receive mercy [for our failures] and find [His amazing] grace to help in time of need [an appropriate blessing, coming just at the right moment].”
Hebrews 4:15-16 AMP
So what do we do?
“Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might; for there is no activity or planning or knowledge or wisdom in Sheol (the nether world, the place of the dead) where you are going.” Ecclesiastes 9:10 AMP
What does that mean?
We must focus our minds, today, on doing the things of the greatest value and which are pleasing to god by faith – which is our best!
Let’s also not worry about tomorrow.
““So do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.” Matthew 6:34 AMP
Yes, progress may feel circular where we make progress, digress or stagnate, study and pray to increase our faith and know how, then move forward to the next level.
We must be encouraged, keep plowing our ground and planting good seeds – keep fighting the good fight of faith.
In closing, we must remember:
“…under the sun that the race is not to the swift and the battle is not to the strong, and neither is bread to the wise nor riches to those of intelligence and understanding nor favor to men of ability; but time and chance overtake them all. [Ps 33:16-19; Rom 9:16]”. Ecclesiastes 9:11 AMP
Let this mind be in us that we have all sufficiency in all things through Christ Jesus.
As we continue to pursue the mind of Christ and his purposes, we will see his kingdom revealed, what we do shall prosper and Christ will be glorified – by faith in Jesus name. Amen.
Be Blessed!
Be a Blessing!
