Christian Leadership Ethics

As we know a leader is suppose to inspire, guide, influence or be a pace setter to their followers. But today we all want to become leaders, not to positively influence or guide, but to enrich ourselves.

However in Christian leadership from the Holy Bible passage above, it is the life first; a man that can carry God into his business. Christ first in the leader, before anything else. Meaning that in the issue of being born-again, the inner must correspond to the outside. Until you see your position in leadership as a call to serve, you are on a path of self-service. The reason the church is weeping today is that, we have placed the wrong men in leadership. In Christian leadership rights and privileges are meant for the followers.

Lesson Learnt

Directly or indirectly our life’s is modeling someone’ life; so we must dare to live by example.

Prayer

Lord Jesus, please help me to carry you into all my personal business and also save our churches from wolf in sheep clothing (Amen)

Common Sense

Joshua 9:1-26 “The men of Israel sampled their provisions but did not enquire of the lord. Then Joshua made a treaty of peace with then to let them live and the leaders of the assembly ratified it by oath”. V 14-15.

And some of this issues or matters have brought some great trouble to the body of Christ, individuals or some trouble the Nation is facing now. From the Bible passage above, (Exodus 34:11-16) we saw how Joshua, a great servant of God, with the Israelite felled into this trap of common sense, because humanly speaking, checking of the provisions of the deceptive Gibeonite, was what common sense would do, but for them, they’ve forgotten that their life or being has gone beyond commonsense, God has been givi...

Family Prayer Series III: ALIGN WITH GOD

Reading & Meditation Joshua 24:1-15 “But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord” 15c We bless God for another gift of a day. We are still on the issue of the praying family. Another suggestion in helping our family pray together is the issue of aligning with God. Joshua from our today’s, passage, understood God’s purpose for himself and family, and would have probably be teaching them, practicing and obeying them with his family as instructed by God in Deuteronomy. This made him stand to the end, and at his good old age, he was still with God and could declare for his family; that they are partner with the Lord, till death. For your family to begin praying, then you must align with God’s plan and purpose. Before praying as a family, the family purpose and plans must be known by all members involved, provided they can understand issues of life. The place of your family in God’s scheme should be sought in prayer first. And over all, our goal in prayer ...
