The Holy Spirit of the Father, the Lord God, is covering me; my life. The purpose; the reason He placed that Spirit in my life is to tell the great news to the poor. The captives are now free, those who have been stumbling around blind can now see, and I bring real liberty to the oppressed and enslaved. (Luke 4:18-19)
Do some of your people need re-charging? You
don’t celebrate just to introduce and invite new people to respond and join the
effort. Celebration also promotes and grows participation for those already
engaged. Remember that what you talk about as the leader is what your people
will do. Your words will have a desire-shaping focus. If you stop talking about
vision and values, and you stop telling and celebrating the stories of what God
is doing, they will notice. Your actions and words, or your inaction and
silence are watched very carefully.
Jesus said the Spirit was placed upon Him;
“covering His life (completely),” so that He would be constantly telling and
celebrating the good news. Every day brought an opportunity to shape focus on
God, encourage participation, and grow people together in community. His whole
business, and yours, is to replicate workers who will in turn bring more
transformation.
Let your life be covered with the Spirit.
Keep on telling the good news. See the transformation God promises as you allow
Him to work through you every day.
