Cross - broken Leaders

God's school of leadership always produces Cross-broken servant leaders. Take a look at this list. From Privilege to Pit at the age of 17, from Prison   to Palace at the age of 30 - Joseph the prime minister of Egypt. From being Prince at the age of 40 to Shepherd   for forty years and to being one of the greatest servant leaders at the age of 80 - Moses the deliverer of Israelite's. From Shepherd boy to king-in-waiting to a Fugitive and then becoming the greatest King of Israel at the age of 30 - David the man after God's own heart. From an ordinary Fisherman to Follower to Denier to being the first Preacher of the Church to chief of Apostles - Apostle Peter.  From being a Pharisee  to Persecutor to the greatest Proclaimer and Missionary - Paul the evangelist.

A Sinister Plot

Satan got together all his cronies for a world wide conference. This was a global conference of all the princes, rulers and powers of darkness, evil spirits, demons and the entire fallen angelic hosts.
