A Leadership Insight from Vision Multiplier International https://visionmultiplierllc.com/
I was reflecting on these scriptures this morning and the thought that we, the leaders, serve an awesome god who is loyal, faithful, trustworthy, dependable and reliable.
His unwavering consistency and dedication towards us remains true, despite how we react or respond.
The Bible tells us:
““For I am the Lord, I do not change [but remain faithful to My covenant with you]; that is why you, O sons of Jacob, have not come to an end.
“Yet from the days of your fathers you have turned away from My statutes and ordinances and have not kept them.
Return to Me, and I will return to you,” says the Lord of hosts. “But you say, ‘How shall we return?’”
Malachi 3:6-7 AMP
- The answer is “Seek my face”:
“…Seek My face [in prayer, require My presence as your greatest need],” my heart said to You, “Your face, O Lord, I will seek [on the authority of Your word].”
Do not hide Your face from me, Do not turn Your servant away in anger; You have been my help; Do not abandon me nor leave me, O God of my salvation!”
Psalms 27:8-9 AMP
2. And know that His Word will prevail:
“So will My word be which goes out of My mouth; It will not return to Me void (useless, without result), Without accomplishing what I desire, And without succeeding in the matter for which I sent it.”
Isaiah 55:11 AMP
“For I assure you and most solemnly say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or stroke [of the pen] will pass from the Law until all things [which it foreshadows] are accomplished.”
Matthew 5:18 AMP
Amen and Amen
Because God is sovereign and knows us intimately, we can rest in His presence:
“You scrutinize my path and my lying down, And You are intimately acquainted with all my ways.
Even before there is a word on my tongue [still unspoken], Behold, O Lord, You know it all. [Heb 4:13]
You have enclosed me behind and before, And [You have] placed Your hand upon me.
Such [infinite] knowledge is too wonderful for me; It is too high [above me], I cannot reach it.
Where can I go from Your Spirit? Or where can I flee from Your presence?”
Psalms 139:3-7 AMP
Thank you Lord!
He loves us so much that He often shares mysteries and secrets with us as we draw nearer to Him. What a privilege!
““Before I formed you in the womb I knew you [and approved of you as My chosen instrument], And before you were born I consecrated you [to Myself as My own]; I have appointed you as a prophet to the nations.” [Ex 33:12; Is 49:1, 5; Rom 8:29]”
Jeremiah 1:5 AMP
“…To you it has been granted to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been granted. [Mark 4:11]”
Matthew 13:11 AMP
So let us get to the place where we resolve in our hearts that it is all about Christ and Christ alone:
“be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole.
This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner.
Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.”
Acts 4:10-12 KJV
Amen
Lastly, let us be courageous and walk in the confidence that all things are working together for our good:
“Be strong and courageous, do not be afraid or tremble in dread before them, for it is the Lord your God who goes with you. He will not fail you or abandon you.””
Deuteronomy 31:6 AMP
“And we know [with great confidence] that God [who is deeply concerned about us] causes all things to work together [as a plan] for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to His plan and purpose.”
Romans 8:28 AMP
Amen and to God be the Glory!
Be Blessed!
Be a Blessing!
““You gave them bread from heaven for their hunger, And brought water for them out of a rock for their thirst, And You told them to enter and take possession of The land that You swore to give them. [John 6:31-34]
“But they, our fathers, acted arrogantly; They stiffened their necks and would not heed Your commandments.
“They refused to listen and obey, And did not remember Your wondrous acts which
You had performed among them; So they stiffened their necks and [in their rebellion] appointed a leader in order to return them to slavery in Egypt.
But You are a God of forgiveness, Gracious and merciful and compassionate, Slow to anger and abounding in lovingkindness; And You did not abandon them. [Num 14:4]”
Nehemiah 9:15-17 AMP
