The history of Israel is the history of its leadership. When Israel had good kings and priests Israel prospered spiritually and otherwise. It was a different story when the leadership was idolatrous, debauched, and sinful. The father of Josiah was the wicked Amon, and under his leadership the nation became idolatrous and viciously immoral, Josiah, by his respect for things holy and his con sistent example, led the people back to the Bible and to God. What our nation and the world need today is leadership that honors God and His Word, not in pretention, but in all sin cerity. God has always been concerned about leadership. His selection and ap pointment of leaders manifests the grace of God. The Grace of God (2 Samuel 7:8-10a) Chapter seven begins with King David and his spiritual advisor, Nathan, in the king's house. Thing have gone well with the king and out of gratitude to God for His goodness David decides he will build God a house. David shares his decision with Nathan, the prophet. Nathan responded about the same way any pastor would respond if some leader of the church informed him that he was going to write a check for the whole building project! Nathan said, "Go, do all that is in thine heart; for the Lord is with three." After Nathan had spent some time with God, he realizes his advise to the king has been given in haste. God sends him back to remind David that it was "the Lord of hosts" who had taken David from the shepherd fields and made him ruler of the people. It had been the grace of God working in the heart of a shepherd boy that had made David great. God had called David. God had been with David. God had cut off all of David's enemies and had given David a great name. God promised David that He would appoint a place for His People and establish them. They would have a place of their own and would no longer need to wander from one place to another. In other words, God would build a house for David! In the selection, ap pointment, and concern for leaders, one may see the greatness of God. The Greatness of God, 2 Samuel 7:21-24 David saw what God had done as being an expression of God's great heart. David came to an even greater appreciation of his God. Any leader will be overwhelmed by the goodness and greatness of God if he will remember to whom he owes his talents and powers for leadership. Leaders are in for trouble when they forget there is One far greater than they could ever be. God wants His leaders to be great. God gives ability to lead. Leaders have God's leadership if they seek it. Government is ordained of God. Leaders are necessary in any form of government. Leaders should see them selves as leaders under God. As long as Israel recognized God as her Leader, she remained unique and glorious. America and other nations of the world need to see the greatness of God. That leader in our nation or any other nation who follows the leadership of God will be better leader of men. David saw God's concern for leaders as a means of bringing glory to God. - By MARION SWINDELL The slory is I old of Hie groiil Diili'h urlisl who was commissioned lo pain I ihr portrait of a famous nun' of his country.
