Leadership #2

11/12/2003

-We have established that every Christian is to some point “a leader”.

-As a leader you will at some level be setting goals.

-I want to look at setting “Godly Goals”.

Read info from “the power of a purpose”

What makes a goal “godly”?

·       It must flow out of God’s will/it will be in line with Scripture

·       There is a passion/faith/life in the goal (there is a sense that you didn’t create it-you discovered it)

·       It will be a blessing to people (it will help others)

(For instance, it can be a godly goal to create a business that provides jobs for others and at the same time blesses you.)

(Example with Doctor and broken finger)

·       A godly goal stretches you and makes you grow personally in order to meet it.

·       It requires faith-you can’t meet it by yourself even if you improve-God has to have a part in the partnership

·       The best goals come out of your heart during prayer and worship

·       Let it come alive before you share it

(someone said you have to hold on to a dream until it holds onto you)

-Set aside some time to pray and seek God about the following areas:

·       Spiritual

·       Social

·       Physical

·       Financial

·       Family

·       Ministry

·       Etc.
