MEMORY VERSE: “Go, gather together all the Jews that are present in Shushan, and fast ye for me, and neither eat nor drink three days, night or day: I also and my maidens will fast likewise; and so, will I go in unto the king, which is not according to the law: and if I perish, I perish.” Esther 4:16.
BIBLE PASSAGE: Matthew 15:22-28.
INTRODUCTION
A game changer is a person or an idea that positively changes the way things are done. It is a ‘dynamic’ newly introduced idea or concept that transforms an existing situation/activity in a significant comprehensive way. Game changers work assiduously to launch a technique that brings a major shift from the old order. They change existing conditions by revitalising them and bringing out the best in them. In business, ministry, organisations, families, etc. game changers alter old strategies and conceive a new way of moving forward. We shall examine the qualities and results of game-changers.
