Trusting Your TeamSample
Day 11: Incoming Commander
Pray
Lord God, quiet my soul and open my mind and heart to receive your Word. Amen.
Read
Isaiah 9
Reflect
Jerusalem and Judah were completely ransacked by the enemy. Here Isaiah offers the struggling Israelites hope by telling of a coming Savior. He also declares that their enemies will be defeated. Who is the child whose birth Isaiah predicted? What will this child be called (v.6)? Why does Israel rebel against God? How do I rebel against God?
Respond
Father, thank you for the gift of your Son, sent to cleanse me from my sinful stubbornness, and to bring me closer to you. Help me to be faithful to you. Amen.

About this Plan
Everyone is capable of accomplishing great things, but no one can do it alone. Part of great service and leadership is relying on a trustworthy team. In the Old Testament, God used ambassadors in the form of prophets and poets to communicate his instructions and tasks, as well as consequences, incentives, and rewards to all people. This plan will provide a deeper understanding into God’s character and leadership qualities.
