Good morning sir!

I’m excited to have you join me for the next 21 days to bring a new level of self leadership into your life!

Would you join me for a short prayer?  Lord, I am paused right now to connect with You!  There is nothing more important than knowing Your heart and hearing Your voice.  I want that!  Speak, Your servant is listening!  Amen!

The retreat was great!  But, now it’s time to put things into practice!  

One of my take aways is this: the heart is the man!

Why do I say that?  Because we all have this incredible tendency to look at man’s outward appearance and believe that we know the man.  But this is not the case!

David, a case in point, was not even considered, in the mind of his father Jesse, when the prophet Samuel asked him to gather his sons.  And even Samuel, when the first son was before him, thought, “Surely the Lord’s anointed stands here before the Lord.” 1 Samuel 16:6

And God said: “ The Lord does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart!”

And so it is.  We cannot see the inner heart!  We cannot know how the heart of a man will react.  The heart is unpredictable inside of man.  One day the man obeys.  On another day the same man rebels.  So it is with every man.

David was selected because of his heart.  “The Lord has sought for Himself a man after His own heart!”  1 Samuel 13:14

A heart after God should be desired above all!

My prayer for today: Lord, my heart goes after many things that were never designed to satisfy me.  Only You satisfy me!  I seek You first and Your Kingdom!  Matthew 6:33. “I pray that the eyes of my heart may be enlightened in order that I may know the hope to which You have called me!”  Ephesians 1:18. Amen!
