Hello, thank you for joining me today for Give Him 15.

The title of our post today is,

When Leaders Seek God.

In yesterday's post, I emphasized that God's wisdom and revelation

are not just for leaders in the church, but for all believers.

These special gifts from God are particularly important for government leaders.

We looked at several biblical examples of this, including the tribe of Issaqar, King David,

King Solomon, and Daniel, who worked for a king.

None of these leaders were rabbis or priests, but rather government officials and soldiers.

But God gave them the spirit of wisdom and revelation.

I want to continue this teaching today, using Jeremiah 333.

Several years ago, the Lord gave me two dreams and one night, both of which emphasized

this verse in Jeremiah, call unto me, and I will answer thee, and show you great and mighty things which thou knowest not.

The following day I did what I typically do when studying a verse. I pulled out my lexicons and several

translations of scripture. One of the first translations I read was the Amplified Classic.

It reads, this verse reads there,

call to me, and I will answer you and show you great and mighty things,

fenced in and hidden, which you do not know, distinguish, distinguish, or recognize,

and have knowledge of or understand.

Fenced in and hidden.

Well, that phrase, fenced in and hidden, intrigued me.

Mighty is the King James word that caused the amplified translators to add this additional phrase.
