We see this principle in Jesus’ ministry in John 2:1-9. You know the story how Jesus told the servants to go and fill the six large Jars with water. Each of these Jars held twenty to thirty gallons of water. We’re talking some work here. Can you imagine how heavy those jars must have been? Why did Jesus tell them to do this? He was the Son of God He could have turned air into wine just as easy as water. He didn’t have to involve them in this process did He? Yes, He did. He wanted all of us to know that when we do what we can do it releases Him to do for us what we cannot do.
What do you want to receive? Would you like to see your attendance increase? Let me ask you some questions do you have the rooms to grow? Do you have the workers in place to handle the increase? Do you have a program based on the needs of the kids in your area? Why should God give you more kids to minister to if your not following up and able to care for the ones you already have?
It’s the same with workers? Have you made a list of every place you could use a worker if people were no problem? Do you have a written job description for every position? Bro. Jim when the people show up then I’ll do those things. If you don’t make room for growth and do the work before hand the workers won’t show up.
We make room for things by doing something new. “If you always do what you always done, you’ll always have, what you’ve always had.”
Same actions bring same results. Is there a better way to do what your doing? Make list of what you need, plan first then go after it. Grow in your abilities to lead. Increase your own leadership level. Set a goal, come up with a plan, and start making room for increase so you can handle what you are aiming for.
