"Guess What Happened Today?"
That was the News going around Jerusalem.
"Hilkiah found the Playbook."
Hilkiah the High Priest told Shaphan the secretary, "I have found the Book of the Law in the Temple of the Lord." 2 Kings 22:8.
Have you ever lost something and didn't realize how important it was?
Josiah knew his team was better than they were performing. He couldn't figure out what was missing. Until now.
Friends, sometimes in life we feel that something is missing. We feel empty, lonely, guilty and paranoid about the future and we just can't figure out why.
When Josiah heard the news about finding the play book he realized what was missing.
Josiah was excited because now he had a game plan for his team. Before this Israel had no vision and no game plan. They were just making it up as they went. They were "winging it."
Now they have a Game Plan.
When we have a game plan we have a foundation to build on. When we have a game plan we have a Clear Vision and Purpose in Life.
The Bible says, without a Vision (game Plan) my people will perish.
To have a Clear Vision sometimes we need to Clean Out the Temple. This is what Josiah did. The Temple is our Life. Paul tells us in the New Testament our bodies are the Temple of the Lord. In other words God lives in us.
After we clean out the Temple the Bible tells us to hide God's Word in our Heart. Psalms tells us, His Word is a Lamp unto our Feet and a Light to our Path.
Hilkiah is like the Holy Spirit. He finds the Word hidden somewhere deep in our Life and Reveals our need for Christ.
Shaphan like Jesus gives us the Good News. Josiah is Like us. He was so excited about this New Found Playbook that he Responded and Took Action. 2 Kings 22-23
To Execute the Game Plan and Utilize all the Potential God has given us we need to use The Playbook daily in our lives.
The Playbook has all the Answers for the Game of Life.
Leaders know the Playbook and Create a Game Plan to Execute Winning Strategies using the Playbook.
Just Go! Win the Day!

Phil 4:13
