#312 Wise leadership and strategic prayer 🗓
3 September, 14:00 UTC+1
Whilst we can learn much from courses and books on effective leadership there is one vital ingredient, for the Christian, that is missing from these ‘success’ recipes – strategic prayer.
Many believers seem unaware of the spiritual battle that is present in their workplaces. The enemy’s job description is to rob, kill and destroy and that includes sabotaging our work.
Though there is no blueprint for how to pray strategically for our areas of responsibility, we need to recognise and use the weapons in our armoury. This is a battle that God equips us to both fight and win!
