God raised up leaders for the Hebrew people who were equipped and empowered for this task through an outpouring or anointing of God’s spirit.  Dr. Schreck talks about the prophet Isaiah and how he foresaw the Messiah, the greatest ruler who would possess the full charisms of leadership: the spirit of wisdom, understanding, counsel, knowledge, fortitude, piety, and fear of the Lord.
