“God has greatly grown and strengthened our community in the Norfolk/Virginia Beach OCF group, and last weekend was a beautiful example of that! Friday night we had worship night on the beach at sunset, led by guitarists Jordan and Jason. Saturday was game night at Tatiana’s home. On Sunday, we had a surprise going-away party for Jordan, as he will be deploying soon, led by Helena and hosted by Reanna.

“So many praises for the amazing people God has brought to this community and the way He is working through and throughout our OCF!” -LTJG Sam Perry, USN

God is always right. All promotions and assignment

God is always right. All promotions and assignments come from the hand of God … even non-promotions (Daniel 4:17, 25, 34-35). God must be acknowledged as sovereign over every part of His creation; otherwise, He becomes a God of man’s limited imagination.

In the book of Job, God teaches that even in pain we are not to insist on being right and demand that God explain His purposes to us, lest we accuse Him of doing wrong. “Will you even put me in the wrong? Will you condemn me that you may be in the right” (Job 40:8)?

Since God is good and cannot do wrong, in every circumstance we get to practice worshiping God before, during, and after promotion or assignment notifications, whether we are happy with the notification or not. We learn to say with Job, “I had heard of you by the hearing of the ear, but now my eye sees you; therefore, I despise myself, and repent in dust and ashes” (Job 42:5-7). God has put His treasure of the gospel in jars of clay (us), “to show that the surpassing power belongs to God and not to us” (2 Corinthians 4:7).

Remembering God’s sovereignty over His creation helps us view assignments, promotions, and retention rightly. Keep reading about the value of entering God’s rest, placing your identity in God alone, and more in Chapter 31 of the #OCFHandbook.

Do you have the reputation of being the “go-to g

Do you have the reputation of being the “go-to guy?” Weighty responsibility and promise can accompany this reputation. What qualified you for such acclaim? What achievement or characteristic elevates someone over another? If you have started formulating a mental checklist of “go-to guy” virtues, stop right here and consider the qualifications Paul designates believers should strive for as they advance the kingdom of God: Love from a pure heart, a good conscience, and sincere faith.

One complication with being the reputed point man can be our temptation to take credit for what God enables us to do. In other words, our good reputation could serve as a thief of the Lord’s glory. How God has gifted us as administrators, leaders, or teachers are gifts that can be mishandled in that we use them to divert exaltation from the Gifter.

Faithfulness to Christ Jesus is the desired end state. What Christ has entrusted to us, He wants us to offer back to Him in faithful service to others. In the Old Testament, the Lord gifted certain people with skills and technical knowledge to build artifacts for the temple. God led them to construct things for His own glory, not for the builders’ glory. In that sense, God’s calling us into service can be a fragile honor, something to be handled with great care. It has been said, “a little knowledge can puff one up.” Paul observed that some strayed and ended in fruitlessness. The goal and privilege of believers is to serve Christ again, and again, and again. The applause we want to hear comes from the Lord saying, “Well done good and faithful servant.” I am keeping you in service.

It is a privilege to be called into service and to be given skills by Him to shape programs that will draw people to Him. Our goal is not to amass a personal reputation as the qualified “go-to person,” but rather to point others to Him for the glory He is due. As God calls us into service, He does not call us because of our unique skill set or qualifications; rather, He deems us faithful and trustworthy as a condition for service.

From yesterday's #OCFPowerinPrayer reminder: "He who made the Pleiades and Orion and turns deep darkness into the morning and darkens the day into night, who calls for the waters of the sea and pours them out on the surface of the earth, the Lord is his name" (Amos 5:8-9).

Pray for our military and its leaders. Ask God to bless them with protection, wisdom, strength, and courage in their service.

“Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you” (Ephesians 4:32, ESV).

Such was the theme of last weekend’s Leading Women Retreat at @wssocf. Tami Waring, speaker and OCF staff rep for women’s ministry, shared that a variety of ladies attended, ranging from many young active-duty officers through retired O-6’s.

“Forgiveness was the topic, and it seems to resonate,” Tami said. “There was lively participation and discussion and tears… The unity of the body was evident and such a joy.”

In particular, this unity of the body enabled sweet, in-person interactions for women traveling from across the region. One young officer in attendance had gotten news from her detailer on her way to the retreat, and she had the joy of celebrating that exciting news with two of her dear friends who were meeting her at this Leading Women event.

Keep all these women in uniform in your prayers as they continue to deepen their relationships with the Lord and with each other from wherever the military sends them.

God declares through the apostle Paul that “ther

God declares through the apostle Paul that “there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God” (Romans 13:1). Military leaders not only submit to governing authorities, but they also are a governing authority. God raises up every ruling authority according to His purposes and plans, from local leaders to national leaders.

Consider how God dealt with Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, by humbling him until he acknowledged “that the Most High rules the kingdom of men and gives it to whom He will” (Daniel 4:32).

According to God’s will, Joseph was appointed to great authority by the Pharaoh of Egypt in order to save many lives (Genesis 45:5, 50:20).

Likewise, Esther was made queen of Persia for the purpose of saving her people (Esther 4:14).

Even the rulers of the Jews, the Gentiles, and the Romans were raised up by God at exactly the right moment in history to do all that God had planned regarding Christ Jesus’ crucifixion (Acts 2:23, 4:27-28). Jesus lived and served under authority, and so do we.

How do we serve under authority while also serving in authority? How can we develop a biblically informed ethic for decision-making? What is the value of courage for a leader facing a mob mentality? Find thoughts on these questions and others in Chapter 30 of the #OCFHandbook, linked in our bio.

King Ahab’s wars with the Aramean King Ben-hadad

King Ahab’s wars with the Aramean King Ben-hadad are described in 1 Kings 20. Israel’s small army was not allied with other nations as was the Aramean army. In fact, King Ben-hadad had pushed Israel around, requiring Israel’s silver, gold, women and children. Not until the Lord put an end to Israel’s acquiescence did Ahab stand up to Ben-hadad. By a surprise attack, Ben-hadad found himself in retreat with plans to attack Israel again in the spring.

Intimidation, threats, and the unknown have a way of manufacturing fear and anxiety. However, God’s wisdom is available to us. God’s prophet gave Ahab answers, the way ahead, and confidence. Today—God’s Word and His abiding presence steady us when we are facing great and small obstacles. As with Ahab, the very things that are not obvious to us, the Lord uses as His tool to deliver us.
