2 Worship Excerpt from the Sermon Journal, Monday, June 25, 2018 Written by Pastor Tom Harrison I Lead with Compassion Nehemiah had a comfortable life in King Artaxerxes palace in Susa (modern Iranian town of Shush). He was devastated to learn of the tragedy in Jerusalem. He wept for days. He mourned, fasted and prayed. He recalled God s compassion and faithfulness and confessed Israel s sin ( we included himself). He did not blame others. His was not an us vs. them mentality. He took personal responsibility. He understood God s covenant had been violated. His prayer led him to plan. Nehemiah is a great example of extreme ownership. He did not pass the buck. He engaged. He was willing to sacrifice everything, including his life, for the sake of the mission. He was willing to Go! when God called. He prayed like it all depended on God. He worked liked it all depended on him. Nehemiah was a man of the greatest character. Something to Think About: On Patriotic Sunday, we emphasize a patriot s compassionate response to the terrible crisis in the place of his cultural, political and spiritual identity Jerusalem. Note Nehemiah s emotion, prayer and determination to respond. Prayer aligns our hearts with the kingdom of God to help us be people of compassion. In our readings this week, note the Lord speaking to King Solomon; and the willingness of people throughout the Bible to exercise extreme ownership in service to God. Why is prayer an important trait for a godly leader? How does compassion help a person lead?
