| | Through The Bible - 1 Kings by Zac Poonen
Topic: Through The Bible Scripture(s): 1 Kings | | Description: Zac Poonen shows how God's great need for our day is leaders and prophets. Leaders must have discernment, transparency, boldness, a good conscience, and humility. We can learn to take heed to the many warnings from the lives of great men like David, Solomon, Elijah and others. Imagine a book that begins with David and ends with Ahab! The book of Kings shows how important God's leaders affect the spiritual state of God's people. What could have been the result in Solomon's life had David last words been about marriage and godly leadership rather than revenge? Solomon teaches us about spiritual discernment and misdirected energies that end in destruction. Elijah gives various insights into the boldness that comes from God's presence and looking away from crows to God alone in spite of human weaknesses and frailties.

Lots of nuggests for spiritual leadership

I am really blessed by the way Zac Poonen is able to extract the highlights from the book in a practical way, and especially in a heart searching way. He is a master at picking out principles to use Bible characters as a mirror to see ourselves more clearly so we can be more like Jesus. This is a very good sermon, especially for those in any kind of a leadership capacity.
