Leadership Basics: The Pathway to Leading God’s way
Notes
Transcript
14 Without wise leadership, a nation falls; there is safety in having many advisers.
3 Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves.
4 Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others.
Title: Leadership Basics: The Pathway to Leading God’s way
A leader is one with the ability and influence to guide and inspire an individual or group toward a common goal or cause.
A godly leader is first a good follower!
Last month we taught about the three things a leader must be:
Accountable
Servant to all
Spirit of excellence
Things are shifting!
Things will never be the same!
The Path to leading God’s way:
Worshipers
Worshipers are creators of atmosphere
2 Sam 6 - David is bringing the Arc to Jerusalem.
Danced and sacrificed
Michal was embarrassed about her husbands worship - despised him
23 Therefore Michal the daughter of Saul had no child unto the day of her death.
No place did bible say God made her barren… rather she was never again called to the kings bedroom!
Where there is no worship, there is no intimacy
Givers
Time, talent and treasure
Giving is about obedience, love, trust
God’s blessing and anointing can be measured in a couple of things, one of them is our giving and the spirit in which we give it.
6 But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully.
7 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.
I wish we would never have to take an offering again!
Spontaneous giving though the service!
Sow seeds of blessing!
SEED BUCKET!
Explain why envelopes and tithe vs. offering
Soul winners
I am going to teach, preach soul winning until you do it or leave!
I am somewhat disappointed that no one ordered Bible Study Charts yet…
Conclusion:
Perpetual growers - you will never arrive!
Leaders that are not growing are dying!
