‘The Lord Stayed With
Me.’
2 Timothy 4:16-17.
a) There was a
time when Apostle Paul had to defend himself and no one stood with him.
b)
Every one of his friends deserted him.
c) He prayed
that God would not count it against him.
d) The Lord
stayed with him and gave him strength.
e) Apostle Paul
was able to proclaim the full Message for the Gentiles to hear.
f) He was
rescued from being sentenced to death.
(Through this QT I am
so encouraged: The Lord Stayed With Me)
‘Jephthah – An Unwise Leader.’
Judges 12:1.
a) The men of
Ephraim felt rejected by him.
b)
They challenged Jephthah because of his
decision.
c) Jephthah
should have called them to go with him.
d) Because of
the rejection they threatened Jephthah and his house.
(This Second one teaches me a Leadership Principle
a Leader should not reject the people that they are leading: Jephthah – An Unwise Leader)
Chris.
The Lord stayed with Apostle Paul and gave him
strength. Yes, when the Lord is with us He will surely give us strength. The
important thing is that we treasure His Presence with us and do not take His
Presence for granted.
