Leadership, Machaira with Apostle Bennie, Prayer

EPISODE 882 – STAND IN THE GAP

CHRIST COMMONWEALTH-COMMUNITY

The Love-Life Agency

Unforgiveness or holding on to an offence is a destructive weapon of the enemy. You may think you are doing the right thing by giving a forensic look at the situation. But beloved listen, that is a snare of the adversary. Make it your priority to walk in love as Jesus loved all men.

STAND IN THE GAP



“The people then cried out to Moses; and Moses prayed to the LORD…”

Numbers 11:2 (New American Standard Bible)



 
As the light of the world, the Lord has called you and sent you to give direction and meaning to lives.
 
As a New Creation in Christ, you have the mandate to lead your generation. You are called and chosen by God to lead many into purpose.

The first step in fulfilling the assignment of leadership is to entrust the assignment to God.

The core element of every leader’s assignment is people. Every leader is sent out by God to provide answers to the people, irrespective of their condition or needs.
 
However, kingdom leaders are sent men, and are not to be GOD to the people. Leaders must therefore see themselves as intercessors.
 
You shape the destinies of people by first praying to the One who has FOREORDAINED THEIR DESTINIES.
 
Whenever the people of Israel turned away from God or blamed Moses for their condition (instead of taking responsibility for their fears and anxiety), Moses’ reaction was to intercede for the people.
Moses didn’t lead the people of Israel by his own strength. He led Israel through the power of Intercession.

To intercede is to commit the burdens of your community, or the institution of people you are leading, to God.

The adversary sought to destroy lives and destinies, and your strategy is to go into prayer of intercession and also take up intercessory projects which shall help shape the lives entrusted to you.
Jesus said:
 
“And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat: But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren” Luke 22:31-32 (KJV).

As a leader, instead of complaining, you stand in the gap for the people entrusted to you by the Lord.

To lead your generation is not to lord yourself over them, but to serve. And the first step you have to take in the service of others is to intercede for them.

BE AN INTERCESSOR TODAY.

DIG DEEPER
(Matthew 5:13-16; Numbers 21:7; Numbers 11:1-2; Romans 1:8-10; 1 Thessalonians 1:2-3; Philippians 1:3-4)
 
WE PRAY
That we will continually stand in the gap for the people the Lord has entrusted to us.

I lead my generation and the people the Lord has given me firstly through intercession. Thank you Jesus for the Spirit of grace for intercession. I don’t complain, but as Moses turned to the Lord, standing in the gap for the Israelites amidst their wholesome burdens, blunders and complaints, I also turn to the Lord always. Thank you dear Holy Ghost, my Helper, counsellor Intercessor,strengthener,standby, advocate at all times.

Thank you Apostle Sir. You’re a great blessing Sir.

“The first step in fulfilling the assignment of leadership is to entrust the assignment to God.”

The Lord Jesus said, …without Him, we can do nothing. Meaning, our profiting and success in His assignment to us is only by His grace and Sufficiency. I submit my will to the Lord is this assignment. As I see my Father do, I also do. Thank you Jesus..

Thank you Apostle Sir
