My Dear Elect Ladies:
I appreciate your network to share a NOW WORD for us as leaders. I Praise God for His mercy, grace, wisdom, and strength for every battle that He equips us for faithfully each day. The "world" is facing a tremendous down fall in the economy and in righteous leadership. But those who serve our King Jesus will never lack, for He perfects and meets the needs of the things that concern His children. But we are in a spiritual war and we must intercede for our leaders, both spiritual and natural leaders. Too often we get tricked by deceptive leadership. There are (3) Questions you should consider asking yourself before you develop intimate relationships.
1. Do they have any stability 2. Do they impart inward "holy" nourishment and refreshment to your spirit 3. What Spiritual fruit: such as love, forgiveness, humility, unity, servanthood, productivity, strength, faith tenacity, spiritual and natural success do they demonstrate in their personal lives and ministry. Psalm 1:2 tells us that a wise leader meditates on God's Word day and night. To meditate means to examine, to experience, and to evaluate. Remember, wolves do come to high leadership positions and the church too! Let's keep each other in prayer for such times as these.
