GREAT LEADERS ARE DETERMINED!

Team:

Today in the One Year Playbook we see Job's Determination to live a righteous life.

Satan and Bildad are still trying to interrogate Job. They are in court and Job is being cross examined.

Job 27:6 "I will maintain my righteousness and never let go of it;..."

GREAT LEADERS ARE DETERMINED!

A lot of what the enemy says about us is true. The bible tells us we have all sinned and made mistakes. However, a lot of what the enemy says is false accusations and assumptions.

Satan will try to mix truth in with lies to suck us into his vortex.

Jesus went through this in the wilderness. When he was fasting 40 days. Jesus succeeded by fighting back with the Word of God the Playbook. Jesus was prepared before the battle by knowing the Playbook. Jesus was Determined to Win the Battle in the Wilderness before he got there.

GREAT LEADERS ARE DETERMINED AND PREPARED!

Job was also Determined to Win his battle. The enemy was trying to accuse him. Job didn't have a lawyer to help him plead his case so Job had to defend himself.

Friends, today we are so fortunate. We don't have to defend ourselves. We have our own personal lawyer to stand up against the enemy and plead our case before God.


"My dear children, I am writing this to you so that you will not sin. But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate who pleads our case before the Father. He is Jesus Christ, the one who is truly righteous." 1 John 2:1

GREAT LEADERS ARE DETERMINED AND PREPARED!

Jesus is our Lawyer and is Determined to Plead our case before the Father.

As our Lawyer Jesus is talking to the Father on our behalf to free us.

Isn't God Awesome? He is so Determined. He gave us His only begotten Son Jesus to be our Lawyer. God knew this was the only solution.

God is Determined to Make us Winners.

Are we Determined to Let Him?

GREAT LEADERS ARE DETERMINED AND PREPARED!

Start Fast - Finish Strong!

Just Go!
