Get Ready to Lead
The fact is, all leaders must be born. And from there on in they are constantly learning. I believe this new era of American history will call upon leaders to possess two fundamental qualities, courage and holiness. That's why you may be experiencing difficulty in your life right now. God is getting you ready for leadership. God is getting his men and women ready to take a moral stand for Christ in a generation that is becoming increasingly hostile to the Gospel.
You might be saying to yourself, wait a minute, I'm not a leader. Well relax, even the great spiritual leader Elijah wasn't perfect. Heaven knows that King David himself had some very serious shortcomings. God will mold you into a leader for use in His purposes.

Do something about it!
While spending her life for the Gospel in India, Amy Carmichael became aware of the horrible practice of parents selling their little girls into prostitution at the age of six or seven. She decided to do something about it. Keep in mind, that this practice had been going on in Hindu temples for over 1,000 years.
Amy's first charge was a seven year old girl whose palms had been intentionally scarred with a hot iron as punishment for a previous escape attempt. Forty two years later, Amy was still in business, protecting nearly 800 girls. She had become a much hated woman in the eyes of a 1,000 year old prostitution industry. But God protected this woman who had the courage to stand for the truth of God.
Gentlemen, if God would protect Amy Carmichael for all those years, won't he protect you and me today?
