More Power!  (Part II)  The Implication
 

How important are the words you use when discussing a business problem?  Did Moses really expect to get water from a rock for his thirsty people and animals; Numbers 20.7?  Did Peter expect the paralytic to walk when he declared the name of Jesus to him; Acts 10.1-10, 16?  What was Paul waiting for in Corinth; 1 Corinthians 2.1-5?  Was Jesus really expecting the disciples to quell the storm; Mark 4.35-38?  What should Christian leaders learn from these examples for growing the businesses in which God has engaged us?

About Maurice Painter

Maurice Painter has been helping executives and their organizations to answer these questions for 50 years.  He recognized that the stretch of pursuit was the correct measure of success early in his career.  God has implemented the steps of His plan that gave Maurice experience in the four functions of any enterprise: sales & marketing, production & distribution, finance & administration, and planning & governance.  The challenges that stretched him include growing a $100,000,000 portfolio of investment securities, leading mergers and acquisitions, and returning four companies to profitability.  Now, after obtaining a Master of Arts in Organizational Leadership, God is stretching Maurice again into an even greater task, in Kenya.  He continues to hear the words of John the Baptist from John 3.27 NLT: “No one can receive anything unless God gives it from heaven.”  What a stretch!
