Fw: LEADERS LEAD THROUGH STORMS

Team:

Today in the One Year Playbook we look at a Leader who has been devastated. His whole life has been turned upside down.
Job was in the Storm of Life.

GREAT LEADERS LEAD THROUGH STORMS

"Oh, that I might have my request,
 that God would grant what I hope for,
that God would be willing to crush me,
to let loose his hand and cut off my life!
Job 6:9

Job is in The Storm Of Life. He feels like a lot of us do when we go through The Storms Of Life: Confused, Anxious, Angry, Depressed ect...

Have you ever been in a Storm?

Do you know someone in a Storm?

How does a leader keep the Team Focused when going through the Storms of Life?

How do Leaders rally the troops?

Jesus Encouraged His disciples when they were in a storm by saying, "Be of good cheer! It is I; do not be afraid."

Just when the disciples thought they were going down Jesus shows up.

God doesn't promise that storms will never come but he does promise He will be with us in the Storm.

Jesus said, "Cheer up! It is I; Do not be afraid.

"Then He went up into the boat to them, and the wind ceased. And they were greatly amazed in themselves beyond measure, and marveled."
Mark 6:49-51

The Storm didn't stop until Jesus got into the boat.

The storm is also in our mind and how we react to circumstances.

When we let Jesus get in our ship the storm in our mind will stop.

He will give us: "PEACE THAT PASSES HUMAN UNDERSTANDING." Phil 4:6-7

When we let Jesus in the ship we will receive Confidence because we know He is in control.

"but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint." Isaiah 40:31

To Lead through a Storm we must invite Jesus the Creator into our Home, Family, Relationships, Work Place, Church, ect...

GREAT LEADERS LEAD THROUGH STORMS
WITH THE ONE WHO CONTROLS THE STORMS.

"Restore me, O Lord, and bring me back to you again! Give me back the joy I once had!" (Lamentations 5:21 NLT).
