LES EXPONENTIALISTES DE LA BIBLE - INFLUENCÉ OU INFLUENCEUR ?
(JEHOJADA)
21 octobre, 2020

Écrit par: Luc Dumont
Certains jours, nous regardons notre vie et nous nous interrogeons : pourquoi tant de batailles, de luttes et de défis ? Il serait tellement plus simple d’avoir une vie sans trop de soucis et sans avoir à se battre constamment contre des vents contraires. Pourtant, les exponentialistes de la Bible relèvent des défis majeurs pour se démarquer et font face à l’opposition quasi permanente. Ils ont tous, d’une certaine manière, le choix entre être influencés par l’atmosphère autour d’eux ou influencer pour que l’atmosphère change. Mais, un prix à payer existe.
La vie de Jehojada illustre bien la fameuse citation de Winston Churchill : « ce n’est que quand il fait nuit que les étoiles brillent ». Il vit à une époque vraiment peu reluisante de l’histoire d’Israël. Il aurait toutes les raisons de plier bagage et fuir sa réalité, mais il choisit au contraire de transcender les difficultés et d’accepter sa destinée : être un instrument pour influencer sa nation.
Alors que tu lis ces lignes, tu te sens peut-être toi aussi fatigué du combat, mais continue à lire le récit de cet homme extraordinaire et tu seras encouragé à persévérer :
Athalie, mère d’Achazia, voyant que son fils était mort, se leva et fit périr toute la race royale. Mais Joschéba, fille du roi Joram, sœur d’Achazia, prit Joas, fils d’Achazia, et l’enleva du milieu des fils du roi, quand on les fit mourir : elle le mit avec sa nourrice dans la chambre des lits. Il fut ainsi dérobé aux regards d’Athalie, et ne fut point mis à mort. Il resta six ans caché avec Joschéba dans la maison de l’Éternel. Et c’était Athalie qui régnait dans le pays.
2 Rois 11 : 1-3
La reine Athalie fait partie intégrante de cette longue liste de « mauvais leaders » de l’Ancien-Testament. Se retrouvant au pouvoir suite à la mort de son fils le roi Achazia, elle fait tuer toute la famille royale pour être au contrôle de la succession et exercer sa suprématie sur le peuple, en les entrainant à abandonner les voies de Dieu. Au risque de leur vie, le couple Jehojada et sa femme Joschéba décident de cacher le petit Joas, seul survivant des candidats à la royauté, et ce, pendant plusieurs années dans le temple de Dieu.
Jehojada, qui est un sacrificateur de Dieu aurait pu tout simplement exercer son service dans le temple sans se mêler d’histoires aussi compliquées et garder une vie sans problèmes et sans risques. Mais son désir de justice que sa femme a aussi les pousse hors d’une vie tranquille. Il possède un appel à briller et influencer la société.
Jehojada refuse de ne rien faire et de laisser sa nation dériver loin des voies de Dieu sous un leadership national décadent. Il décide donc après plusieurs années d’établir Joas en tant que roi. Il faut comprendre qu’à l’époque, les sacrificateurs et les prophètes sont souvent ceux qui mettent les rois en place :
La septième année, Jehojada s’anima de courage, et traita alliance avec les chefs de centaines, Azaria, fils de Jerocham, Ismaël, fils de Jochanan, Azaria, fils d’Obed, Maaséja, fils d’Adaja, et Élischaphath, fils de Zicri.
Ils parcoururent Juda, et ils rassemblèrent les Lévites de toutes les villes de Juda et les chefs de famille d’Israël ; et ils vinrent à Jérusalem. Toute l’assemblée traita alliance avec le roi dans la maison de Dieu. Et Jehojada leur dit : Voici, le fils du roi régnera, comme l’Éternel l’a déclaré à l’égard des fils de David.
2 Chroniques 23 : 1-3
Un seul homme déterminé et consacré à Dieu peut changer la direction d’une nation.
Ce que fait Jehojada est audacieux. Voilà pourquoi il lui a fallu (v1) s’armer de courage.
Parfois, nous lisons les textes bibliques et oublions que ces gens étaient des êtres humains comme nous, avec des peurs ou des incertitudes. En effet, il nous faut, nous aussi, quelquefois être courageux pour prendre la voie de l’influenceur. Nous devons accepter la réalité d’une possible opposition. L’influenceur prend position, affiche ses couleurs, ne peut pas se cacher dans la foule des suiveurs.
Jehojada a beaucoup à perdre et il n’y a pas un modèle précis à suivre dans les démarches qu’il va adopter. Il choisit de rassembler les Lévites (serviteurs de Dieu) et de faire alliance avec eux dans la maison de Dieu pour établir une succession au roi David. Ce qui est intéressant, c’est de voir comment Jehojada ne vit pas dans la mentalité qui lui est imposée.
La tendance est, en effet, favorable à l’idolâtrie et au culte des déités païennes. Jehojada a choisi d’être différent, de servir Dieu, de mettre les Lévites sur l’avant-scène et d’introniser le futur roi dans la maison de Dieu au son des instruments de musique et des louanges (2 Chroniques 23 : 11-13).
Un seul homme déterminé et consacré à Dieu peut changer la direction d’une nation. Bien évidemment, la reine Athalie va se révolter contre cette décision, mais le niveau d’influence de Jehojada est maintenant à son maximum. La reine est mise à mort pour que le nouveau roi puisse régner. Jehojada établit ensuite des nouveaux standards dans le pays où Dieu est la priorité.
Jehojada traita entre lui, tout le peuple et le roi, une alliance par laquelle ils devaient être le peuple de l’Éternel. Tout le peuple entra dans la maison de Baal, et ils la démolirent ; ils brisèrent ses autels et ses images, et ils tuèrent devant les autels Matthan, prêtre de Baal.
Jehojada remit les fonctions de la maison de l’Éternel entre les mains des sacrificateurs, des Lévites, que David avait distribués dans la maison de l’Éternel pour qu’ils offrissent des holocaustes à l’Éternel, comme il est écrit dans la loi de Moïse, au milieu des réjouissances et des chants, d’après les ordonnances de David.
2 Chroniques 23 : 16-18
« Tout s’élève et tout s’écroule selon le leadership ».
John Maxwell
Grâce au leadership courageux et aux actions de Jehojada, l’atmosphère spirituelle du pays change complètement. Tout à coup, un nouveau leadership, un rétablissement de l’adoration à Dieu est mis en place avec le ministère des Lévites.
Joas avait sept ans lorsqu’il devint roi, et il régna quarante ans à Jérusalem. Sa mère s’appelait Tsibja, de Beer Schéba. Joas fit ce qui est droit aux yeux de l’Éternel pendant toute la vie du sacrificateur Jehojada.
2 Chroniques 24 : 1-2
Jehojada a désormais une influence gigantesque dans la direction du pays. Le jeune roi Joas n’a que sept ans lorsqu’il est établi roi. Puisqu’il a été élevé dans le temple de Dieu par Jéhojada et sa femme, il dirige la nation dans les voies de Dieu et sous l’influence positive de Jéhojada. Quel exemple remarquable d’un homme qui a choisi d’être un influenceur et non un influencé !
Qu’en est-il pour toi ?
Es-tu entrainé dans des voies qui vont à l’encontre de tes convictions ?
Ne laisse pas le courant populaire autour de toi déterminer la direction de ta vie. Tu peux être un influenceur dans ton église, ton travail, ta communauté et ton pays. Prends courage comme Jéhojada et fais ce qui est nécessaire pour que l’atmosphère de Dieu revienne autour de toi.

Bonjour Luc,
Merci beaucoup pour ce blog, qui me fortifie beaucoup .
Demeure béni, toi et toute l’équipe Exponentiel ! 🕊️
Je demande à Dieu de m’aider à être influencée par Sa Parole pour ainsi devenir une influenceuse et non plus jamais une influencée.
Merci pour ce merveilleux message
Great – I should certainly pronounce, impressed with your site. I had no trouble navigating through all the tabs and related info ended up being truly simple to do to access. I recently found what I hoped for before you know it in the least. Quite unusual. Is likely to appreciate it for those who add forums or anything, web site theme . a tones way for your client to communicate. Excellent task..
I like what you guys are usually up too. This kind of clever work and exposure! Keep up the good works guys I’ve you guys to blogroll.
Thank you for another excellent article. Where else could anyone get that kind of information in such a perfect way of writing? I have a presentation next week, and I’m on the look for such information.
Thanks for another informative website. Where else could I get that kind of information written in such an ideal way? I have a project that I’m just now working on, and I have been on the look out for such information.
Now pump out one other 10 reps. Then perform one other 50% weight drop
and rep out with a final 10 reps. That means that your ultimate two sets
may have you doing 30 reps per set. That will be sure that every
single muscle fiber is on fireplace by the point you stroll
away from the incline bench. That means finding the best mass building workout after which
sticking to it, week in week out.
All three elements and more are included as clinically efficient dosages in ALTIUS pre-workout.
And finally, carbohydrates and fats can fluctuate primarily based on your own personal preferences.
Nonetheless, most people will find they really feel finest on 100 grams of carbs or greater per day and no fewer than zero.35 grams of fat/lb per day.
On most natural bodybuilding programs, your consumption of both of those nutrients shall be
higher than these numbers. In addition to that, a smaller element of your program should
be directed towards isolation workout routines, utilizing
lighter weights and taken into the higher rep range.
I assume people who’ve by no means lifted weights before, to offer them with a
frame of reference for what a partial should truly appear to be, instructing them a four vary of motion first is sweet.
Personally in my coaching, I use solely lengthened partials.
Yeah, so I assume the single greatest approach to do it will be as an alternative of
doing a full range of motion on a given exercise, strive using about 50% or
about half reps in that lengthened place. We compared basically a
better volume condition with three reps in reserve,
after which the other arm of every individual.
We checked out decrease set volumes all the way
in which to momentary failure.
After hitting the meat of the chest with flat-bench barbell presses, you’ll instantly assault the pecs from the identical angle with dumbbells.
You’ll finish chest day with an isolation transfer (cable flye) to finish issues off with an unbelievable
pump before transferring on to triceps. Your triceps training will contain bread-and-butter exercises performed in the
traditional hypertrophy rep vary (8-12) to pack maximum mass onto
the upper arms.
If you need to preserve, there should be no caloric excess or deficit.
If you wish to cut, there must be a caloric deficit of about 500 calories per day, however normally not more.
When you chop, you don’t wish to lose muscle, you need to lose fats and sometimes shedding greater than 1
lb per week leads to some lost muscle.
This template is designed for intermediate trainers,
with around 4 months or more value of stable training
expertise. If you want to do one thing utterly totally different within the fitness center
that will problem you in a method you’ve never been challenged, this is a routine you
need to strive. Second, maximizing the event of a given muscle group
requires the usage of a number of workouts,
and never only one. If in doubt, err on the side of giving yourself an excessive amount of
relaxation rather than not sufficient.
Warm up earlier than your exercise to prevent harm and apply the actions.
Warm-ups are necessary for anybody and much more crucial for
older adults. If you’re a newcomer to the fitness center but a veteran in another sport,
you’ll already understand the worth of a good warm-up.
If you like a varied workout routine, this structured and repetitive program might pose a problem.
Nevertheless, its depth and frequency may be overwhelming
for newbies, posing a danger of damage or burnout. As A Substitute, you hit each muscle with simply sufficient coaching
for optimum muscle growth and do it thrice per week as an alternative of one.
And, as a end result of you’re nonetheless studying to carry out the workout routines, you get to practice the
actions for the working muscles more often. I’ve created two
full physique barbell workout routines, A and B. If you’re new to
whole physique coaching, then simply begin with the
A train routine. For these readers which are familiar
with this web site, this might be a departure
from my normal programming.
On workouts 4-6, you may be repeating workouts 1-3, so purpose for more whole
reps per RM set the second time via. To perform the workout, clean the kettlebells to the rack position, then perform a set of navy presses.
Then, whenever you’re ready, clean the kettlebells back into the rack position and carry out a set of
entrance squats. Energetic restoration days are kinda-sorta rest days, when you are able to do
exercises which are much less intense than your workout
days, and likewise shorter in duration. The program has been thoughtfully composed through years
of non-public experimentation, consulting the analysis, and learning from experts
along the way.
You can do barbell compound workout routines on the health club or a full
physique dumbbell workout at home with adjustable dumbbells.
Begin with one set per muscle group and workout, including a
set each few weeks till you perform three units per muscle group.
A bodybuilding program is a workout routine that emphasizes muscle development (i.e.
muscular hypertrophy) within the athlete. In contrast,
a powerlifting program is designed with the aim of
increasing an athlete’s one rep max in the squat, bench press, and deadlift.
If you’re anything like me then you definitely
like lifting, and want to put on as a lot muscle mass as potential.
This is exactly what this 12 week free bodybuilding
program is designed to do. In Distinction To different programs, this muscle constructing plan was created based on the input of hundreds of research on muscular hypertrophy.
Not solely will this cut back muscle strength and useful capability,
it could also lead to a quantity of health-related points too.
Let’s face it – you most likely can’t train as onerous as you used to.
Having a program that you could comply with is essential as it helps to maintain you
‘locked in’ to your end aim. And a guide
like this that educates you on why your program is laid out like it’s will help to give you confidence in your actions.
For the subsequent 4 weeks, you’ll be transferring
so much and resting little. Most of the remaining periods, in reality, are lively, which suggests about
95% of the seventy five minutes you’ll spend in the fitness
center each day may have you in movement. We perceive plenty of guys
find it exhausting to carve out 75 minutes for training, whereas others can handle ninety minutes
or more. The Lean Mass-15 routine is a four-week plan that options
numerous advanced training rules designed not simply to build muscle, however
improve cardio operate and burn fats as well. That’s as a outcome of, with its intense pacing and lively relaxation durations,
it’s partly a HIIT cardio routine—just one that also builds muscle.
Carbohydrates don’t construct muscle independently, but that doesn’t imply
that they are ineffective for constructing muscle.
You store the carbs you eat in your muscle as glycogen, which you then use to gasoline your exercises.
Old school bodybuilders thrived on high quantity training to
build muscle. With our carry motion we’re going to be accruing additional volume.
Our targets with this helpful exercise are to get
a further conditioning effect from the carry, and to
build grip sustainability which will benefit us in our main lifts.
Now, if you consider bodybuilders you may consider these guys which are simply
plain large. Big round muscles bulging out of their shirt
and forearms the size of most guy’s legs. This isn’t the sort of body that I personally advocate building.
And so, in terms of the method to build muscle optimally, of
first significance, get whole every day protein straight,
that is the cake. Then, for the icing on the cake,
unfold it out comparatively evenly over, I would say a minimal of three protein doses over the course of the day.
You have total every day protein consumption, 1.6 to 2.2 grams per
kilogram of physique weight or zero.7 to
1.zero grams per pound. So should you begin training
to failure throughout all your exercises and find yourself not having the flexibility to
get well from it, it may not really result in more development.
The biggest hindrance many people have in attaining a high stage of fitness is a belief that you should practice typically to see good
features. Ideally, you separate every training day by one restoration day with one two-day recovery break (generally the weekend).
It’s best to get in there and bust your rear 3 occasions a week than to sit down round and
pout about the way you don’t have time to go to the gym, and never
go at all. The challenge increases as you progress via the degrees, so it’s
important to choose a load that’ll get you through to
the end. However, when you do discover it too
intense, it’s okay to stay with the earlier degree,
select a lighter weight, or improve the remaining interval.
Choose weights which are heavy and take you to fatigue with every set.
For anyone looking to optimize mass, increase strength or just improve their health and conditioning levels, this offers a fast and effective solution.
Progress stalls if you maintain doing what you’re already doing, lifting the identical weights
week after week. You’re not forcing your muscle tissue to adapt by growing larger and stronger because they’ll already
deal with your training sessions. You’ll see the
terms units and reps throughout this article,
and if you’re new to power training, you may not know what they mean. The course
of of making new muscle tissue is called muscle protein synthesis.
Over time, the will increase in muscle protein synthesis after
your training session become obvious as new muscle mass.

His applications produce “next level” achievements in muscle measurement,
energy and performance for professional athletes and
anybody trying to construct a muscular athletic physique.
A exercise that comes with heavy compound workouts with a combination of isolation workouts and general quantity (more sets and reps).
I’ll clarify why below, however first let’s take a glance at what a simple bodybuilding
exercise seem like. Strength training builds density and that is what gives your muscular tissues
the hard and toned look — not bodybuilding workout routines.
If you’re satisfied with the dimensions of your muscle tissue, you want to then concentrate on doing a muscle definition workout routine.
Most bodybuilding exercise routines are the same and that’s
actually okay.
Eating 30–40 grams of high-quality protein after a workout is
a good suggestion. You speed up restoration and kick-start
muscle protein synthesis. A protein shake is a handy choice when you don’t fancy an everyday meal instantly after training.
If you’re slicing to lose physique fats, your protein necessities improve.
My blood lipids are fantastic and I enjoy the testosterone assist.
If you presumably can hit that by the top of the day, you have done 90, 95% of what you can probably do to maximize your hypertrophy.
Alan is among the world’s high vitamin researchers
with over 30 years of success in the area. He’ll
first clarify how a lot protein we actually
need, and then he’ll present an inventory of one of the
best protein sources to maximise hypertrophy. Now as for what
this seems like in phrases of how fast you need
to be gaining weight each month, here’s what Eric
recommends.
And if all you’re doing for your legs are squats, those muscles won’t all develop to the
same extent. That is, alternating between low, medium and excessive reps will
build muscle quicker than sticking to the same number of
reps all the time. First up, we have training frequency, which refers again to the number
of instances you practice a muscle group each week.
But there’ll come a degree when the positive aspects decelerate, or even grind
to a halt utterly. As Quickly As you get to that point,
chances are you’ll must ramp up the amount of training you’re
doing to proceed making progress. Don’t try to save time by chopping
your relaxation periods quick and racing from one train to the subsequent.
The hypertrophy stimulus generated by a given exercise will be that a lot larger
when you get a decent quantity of relaxation between every set before tackling the
next one.
It is a great tool and equally effective as straight-set coaching.
Of course, the extra typically you practice a muscle group, the fewer units you want to do per session. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have
the ability to recuperate from the huge complete
weekly training quantity. Those are simply three examples,
and there’s no evidence that a sure number of coaching days are superior, although most bodybuilders prefer to work out a minimum of 4 occasions weekly.
In common, single-joint and multi-joint workouts are equally efficient for building
muscle.three Combining each is in all probability going useful for long-term muscle
development. Your coaching is essentially the most important
a part of the bodybuilding puzzle.
However that’s not promoted as much as new exercise concepts like CrossFit.
Those different programs may be are great for other goals, but
not for bodybuilding. If you wish to get jacked,
however can’t ignore these fundamental bodybuilding exercises and rules that
go along with it. The reality is that real bodybuilding exercises have
not modified that a lot over the a long time. These
compound workout routines are what have constructed great stage-worthy physiques again then and at present.
You May discover some workout routines have “Relaxation Pause” which
means you may perform a rest-pause set on your last set.
You drive your self to push past one hundred pc with the assistance of a good friend.
Typically the chest and back workout was done in ‘super set’ trend.
Calves, forearms, traps and abdominals were done as
wanted. One massive thing that the 70’s bodybuilders had that today’s bodybuilders
don’t have is AESTHETICS. You’ll follow the previous exercise selection with the conventional deadlift variation. For this first
big compound exercise, the hip-hinge motion turns into the focus for overload.
Keep fixed rigidity in your biceps throughout the set by not resting on the backside of the motion. Also,
keep away from using upper body momentum to swing the dumbbells and curl solely utilizing your biceps.
Begin with an empty bar, actually gentle dumbbells, or by deciding on a
lightweight load on a machine, depending on the
train. Improve the load set by set until you’re on the weight you’ll be utilizing on your actual units.
You’ve still got a passion for all times, and at the end
of the day, you care about looking good. That, coupled with the routine under
– is all you have to grow and get stronger more
than you ever thought potential. Consistency and depth of effort, over time, will reap rewards for you that you’ve never thought possible.
Plus, going to the health club too typically can become powerful mentally
for quite so much of reasons. In a perfect world, you need to be hungry
for that subsequent session and enter the fitness center able to transfer lots of weight around.
Lose weight and construct abs on the same
time with this back-friendly program. The aim is to exercise intensely in short bursts with minimal relaxation, which helps increase your
coronary heart rate, so you burn extra energy than throughout an equal steady-paced workout.
