A Leadership Insight from Vision Multiplier International https://visionmultiplierllc.com/
I was reflecting on this scripture this morning and the thought of how important it is that we, the leaders, live our lives in such a way that we are lead by and flow in the holy spirit – like the wind.
It is fascinating to me how something that is formless, invisible, unassuming and gentle as the wind is can also be so powerful and destructive at times. It’s almost as if it has no limits or boundaries – unstoppable.
The scripture tells us: “…so is every one that is born of the Spirit.” John 3:8 B KJV
Selah
The Bible tells us how the journey with the holy spirit began at Pentecost:
“When the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together in one place, and suddenly a sound came from heaven like a rushing violent wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting.
There appeared to them tongues resembling fire, which were being distributed [among them], and they rested on each one of them [as each person received the Holy Spirit].
And they were all filled [that is, diffused throughout their being] with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues (different languages), as the Spirit was giving them the ability to speak out [clearly and appropriately]. ‘
And it shall be in the last days,’ says God, ‘That I will pour out My Spirit upon all mankind; And your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,
And your young men shall see [divinely prompted] visions, And your old men shall dream [divinely prompted] dreams; Even on My bond-servants, both men and women, I will in those days pour out My Spirit And they shall prophesy.”
Acts 2:1-4, 17-18 AMP
Amen
As leaders, when the holy spirit moves in any situation, those without the trained eye will only see the results we achieve but will not be able to discern how we achieved the results. But we will know that it is all the Lords doing!
Because we believe in Christ and are led by the Holy Spirit, so shall be our effectiveness and impact.
Like the wind, the spirit will change our thinking, transform our planning and energize us for achievement.
We are the solution for the plagues and issues facing our community, our nation and our world.
We have to be just like the wind: formless yet steadfast in the word of God.
We must be invisible (undetected) so that we can disrupt the plans of the enemy and can provide the breeze of encouragement and hope.
When necessary, we must be the destructive solution and bind any forces that are hinderances – breaking the chains of bondage, lack, apathy, disbelief, ignorance and stagnation.
For according to Deuteronomy 28:13, we are the heads and not the tails; always above and never beneath.
No matter what was our starting point, we can still walk in this divine privilege today by faith:
“for all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;” Romans 3:23 KJV
And
“Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: that the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.”
Galatians 3:13-14 KJV
“So we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were making His appeal through us; we [as Christ’s representatives] plead with you on behalf of Christ to be reconciled to God.
He made Christ who knew no sin to [judicially] be sin on our behalf, so that in Him we would become the righteousness of God [that is, we would be made acceptable to Him and placed in a right relationship with Him by His gracious lovingkindness].”
2 Corinthians 5:20-21 AMP
We are the mighty wind of change for the kingdom because we stand for righteousness and truth while walking in love.
Amen
“Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, to the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen.”
Jude 1:24-25 KJV
In Jesus name
Amen
Be Blessed!
Be a Blessing!
“The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.”
John 3:8 KJV
