Daily Devotions: The Heart of a Great Leader – July 9, 2026

1 Chronicles 14:2 (NLT) – “And David realized that the Lord had confirmed him as king over Israel and had greatly blessed his kingdom for the sake of his people Israel.”   In this episode of Daily Devotions, Pastor David Sumrall reflects on humility as one of the most vital yet often overlooked characteristics of King David’s leadership. He highlights the pivotal moment when David realized his promotion and success were not for his own status, but were granted by God specifically for the sake and benefit of the people of Israel.   Pastor Sumrall explains that a truly humble leader recognizes they are merely an instrument in God's hands and ensures that God receives all the glory for what is accomplished. By seeking God's strategy before every action and carefully listening for “how-to” instructions, leaders can remain focused on their God-given purpose rather than personal ambition. ---- Don’t forget to like, subscribe to Cathedral of Praise TV https://www.youtube.com/c/cathedralofpraiseTV/?sub_confirmation=1,and hit the bell icon 🔔 to stay updated.
