“IMPORTANCE OF A STRONG LEADERSHIP”
Saints of God Most High, hear God’s word for you today:
“The Spirit of Adonai spoke through me, His word was on my tongue. The God of Isra’el spoke; the Rock of Isra’el said to me, ‘A ruler over people must be upright, ruling in the fear of God; like the morning light at sunrise on a cloudles………’” (2 Samuel 23:2-4)
The Spirit of the Lord spoke in and by me, and His word was upon my tongue. The God of Israel spoke, the Rock of Israel said to me, When one rules over men righteously, ruling in the fear of God, He dawns on them like the morning light when the sun rises on a cloudless morning, when the tender grass springs out of the earth through clear shining after rain.
IMPORTANCE OF A STRONG LEADERSHIP
Leadership is not an option but an essential principle in the lives of God’s people. Whenever God wants to accomplish some great purpose, he will inevitably call a leader to represent him.
In the Old Testament we can see strong leaders such as Moses, Joshua, David, Nehemiah, Elijah and many others who faithfully led the people of God.
In the New Testament Jesus demonstrated his leadership through His disciples. These early church leaders were common men and women with an uncommon lord, who changed their lives and commissioned them to take the gospel to the entire world.
Whenever the church of Jesus Christ emerges, surely there will be need for officials and appointed leadership for the congregation.
There is a need for the new Christian to be taught and a need to send the eternal message for the world will also arise.
God’s church is therefore dependent upon the right kind of leadership which fits the pattern of the bible and develops a healthy congregation. Church leadership is a stewardship which has a great impact upon the lives of Christians.
It is therefore imperative that the leaders be chosen as led by the Holy Spirit for the benefit of the believers and for God’s glory in Jesus’ mighty name, Amen!
Somebody shout, “PRAISE THE LORD!”
Shalom and good morning.
