Commanders have a reputation of being great leaders. But often times, they only get what they want by demanding it.
Listen in as Andy Williamson takes us through the journey of two commanders in the Bible. Both are men of notoriety and beloved by those around them. However, these commanders needed the provision of God to help them in their times of great need, and they each approached God with their needs in vastly different ways.
One commander approached these needs with a stubborn, selfish attitude and wanted things his way and only his way. And when things didn’t go his way, he was willing to throw it all away and walk away from the miracles that God had been providing him.
The other commander was selfless and humbled at the thought of Jesus even being willing to help him.
While both of the commanders received the miracles they desired, each came with unique experiences and twists in their journey.
But what if…what if, like the first commander, we demand things and get frustrated when things don’t go our way? What if our selfishness is in the way of God’s miracles in our lives? What if He is actively working for us, but we don't get to experience His miracles because we put blinders on?
He is for us. Not against us.
