Leadership

'NEITHER...BEING LORDS OVER GOD'S HERITAGE...' 1 PETER 5:3

Are you called to be a leader in the home, the workplace or the church?
Do you aspire to leadership? Understand this: today's generation is
unwilling to submit to, or follow those who practice the old 'top down'
style of leadership that says, 'I'm in charge, and the sooner you figure
that out the better.' No, you don't demand leadership; you earn it -
every day. How? By being a servant! By putting others first and yourself
last. That's what Jesus taught and practiced. You're not called to be at
the top of the pyramid. The New Testament model for leadership is an
inverted pyramid with you at the bottom, supporting the others, holding
them up, bringing out the best in them, laying aside your own comfort
and desires to serve those you're called to lead so that the job can get
done, and done better. This means gently correcting mistakes and tying
up loose ends while people learn. It also calls for breaking a sweat and
getting dirt under your fingernails. AW Tozer wrote: 'A true and safe
leader is likely to be one who has no desire to lead, but is forced into
a position of leadership by the inward pressure of the Holy Spirit, and
the press of the external situation. A person who is ambitious to lead
is disqualified as a leader. The true leader will have no desire to lord
it over God's heritage, but will be humble, gentle, self-sacrificing and
altogether as ready to follow as to lead, when the Spirit makes it clear
that a wiser and more talented man than himself has appeared.'
