Because He (God) loved your fathers, therefore He chose their descendants after them; and He brought you out of Egypt with His Presence, with His mighty power, driving out from before you nations greater and mightier than you, to bring you in, to give you their land as an inheritance, as it is this day.
Deuteronomy 4:37-38
Moses’ speech encourages the people to realize their purpose and calling. This great leader reminds his countrymen of God’s faithful provision and imparts to them a sense of destiny.
When leaders project passion for their vision, they create an atmosphere of expectancy among the people. Moses created at least three such atmospheres for the Jewish people:
1. A sense of destiny: Moses communicated a sense of God’s call on Israel’s future, a future they were destined to fulfill.
2. A sense of family: Moses convinced the people they would enter the land together; cooperatively they could accomplish the vision.
3. A militant spirit: Moses called the Israelites to do whatever it took to enter the land; they needed to pay the price to get the job done.
Is there something you need to do today to instill a greater sense of purpose and passion in those you lead?
