Next Steps for You as Hope Craftsmen
The Lord is inviting us to take the next steps towards being rightly positioned for our battles this year, and to be protected with God’s “Body Armor” of Marvelous Camaraderie. Here are some next steps the Lord gave…
1. The Lord told us to inquire of Him regarding the battles we face. We are to either:
• Be hidden from battle – like David in Psalm 27:5.
• Be a protector, a keeper of the promises and taker of territory.
• Sacrifice and go through the battle for the benefit of others.
2. The Lord told us to break the spirit of isolation and receive the Spirit of God for community! Come together with friends to the Table of the Lord and ask the following questions:
• The Lord told us to ask Him how He was restoring a “Community of Brotherhood” so we could see it.
• The Lord told us to ask Him, “Who is our ‘Hope in God Team’?”
• The Lord told us to ask Him who our Marvelous Comrades are, that will be keepers of the promises for us.
• The Lord told us to ask Him what type of Marvelous Comrade we are to be for others.
• The Lord told us to ask Him who the Marvelous Comrades are that we are called to “build together, side by side,” with.
• The Lord told us to ask Him who our Level 3 relationships are to be.
• The Lord told us to ask Him to give us a vision of “strength in community.”
• The Lord told us to ask Him how to steward the relationships and community that He has given us.
We are doing this (inquiring of the Lord over these three choices) together morning by morning as a management team at the Hartley Group and we are seeing much fruit come forth.
