The Kind of Leader You Need to Be

 

1 Corinthians 10:31 

King James Version

31 Whether therefore ye eat, 

or drink, 

or whatsoever ye do, 

do all to the glory of God.

We all fail each other, when we don't know God.

How can we lead each other perfectly, when we don't know God?

How can we claim to love each other, when we don't believe in Jesus?

How can we know what's right for others, when we don't listen to the Lord?

But the moment we are born again, we can know.

Until you are born again, your knowledge is deeply flawed.

You cannot serve others well, as Jesus had, unless you are His own.

When you are the Lord's own, you'll realize being a leader, is being a servant.

You are not to be served, but to serve.

You are not to create a throne for yourself.

Only God has a throne.

We are mortals, subject to God's divine laws, and instructions from the Holy Spirit.

By ourselves, we know nothing.

The world will entice you with things not of God.

And when you succumb to that temptation, you are doomed.

Only by the grace of the God can we be saved -- mostly from ourselves -- from our wrong notions.

Life was meant to be lived for God, not self.

Life was meant to be lived for service to others, not self.

Where God is, there is no self.

Only God.

All glory belong to Him alone.

The next post will show you why.
