WE MUST RECOGNIZE AND RESPECT THE SHEPHERDS GOD DESIGNATED TO PRAY WITH US AND FOR US WE MUST REPENT



 Sa 7:3  And Samuel spake unto all the house of Israel, saying, If ye do return unto the LORD with all your hearts, then put away the strange gods and Ashtaroth from among you, and prepare your hearts unto the LORD, and serve him only: and he will deliver you out of the hand of the Philistines. 

1Sa 7:4  Then the children of Israel did put away Baalim and Ashtaroth, and served the LORD only. 

1Sa 7:5  And Samuel said, Gather all Israel to Mizpeh, and I will pray for you unto the LORD. 

1Sa 7:6  And they gathered together to Mizpeh, and drew water, and poured it out before the LORD, and fasted on that day, and said there, We have sinned against the LORD. And Samuel judged the children of Israel in Mizpeh. 

1Sa 7:7  And when the Philistines heard that the children of Israel were gathered together to Mizpeh, the lords of the Philistines went up against Israel. And when the children of Israel heard it, they were afraid of the Philistines. 

1Sa 7:8  And the children of Israel said to Samuel, Cease not to cry unto the LORD our God for us, that he will save us out of the hand of the Philistines. 

1Sa 7:9  And Samuel took a sucking lamb, and offered it for a burnt offering wholly unto the LORD: and Samuel cried unto the LORD for Israel; and the LORD heard him. 

 1Sa 7:12  Then Samuel took a stone, and set it between Mizpeh and Shen, and called the name of it Ebenezer, saying, Hitherto hath the LORD helped us. 

1Sa 7:13  So the Philistines were subdued, and they came no more into the coast of Israel: and the hand of the LORD was against the Philistines all the days of Samuel. 

 

AS Christian Business professionals we must understand if we want the Lord to turn in our favor

WE MUST TURN FROM OUR WICKED WAYS

WE MUST ACKNOWLEDGE GOD AS OUR SAVIOR 

WE MUST FEAR GOD MORE THAN WE FEAR OUR ENEMIES 

WE MUST RECOGNIZE AND RESPECT THE SHEPHERDS GOD DESIGNATED

TO PRAY WITH US AND FOR US

WE MUST REPENT
