You're Not Your Biggest Enemy In Leadership Know when you're holding yourself back and when others are holding you back. I don't agree with the slogan, "You are your biggest enemy or critic." That's not always true. Furthermore, many leaders will tell you that many of the battles and challenges they've had to face and overcome resulted from people pursuing them with the wrong intentions in mind. Leaders can be and often are their greatest advocate. Advocating for yourself is powerful and possible. It shows that you care about your feelings, purpose, and well-being. Caring about yourself isn't arrogance. It's called self compassion. It shows that you are intuned with your life and how God is guiding and protecting you from circumstances and outcomes that aren't His will for your life or future. Never allow anyone to make you feel bad for caring about yourself and advocating for yourself in leadership. Leaders are so often stressed ou...

I am sure that the good work God began in you will continue until He completes it on the day when Jesus Christ comes again. (Philippians 1:6). You can rest assured that God will finish what He's started. God doesn't do things half- heartedly. Nor does He leave things undone. God always shows up for the assignment. He always completes the job and follows through. If the task is in God's hands, you can be confident that He will get it done. Whatever God has promised you, He will do it. Isaiah 55:11 says, "In the same way, my words leave my mouth,     and they don’t come back without results. My words make the things happen that I want to happen.     They succeed in doing what I send them to do."  God will not fail you.  So, stay the course. Continue doing what God has placed in your heart to do. He will help you to get it done.  I know sometimes it may seem like your efforts are pointless, but they're not. I know sometimes it may feel...

Listening and Learning- The Applicable Learder Okay, you are a leader. Great! Congratulations.  Join the rest of us who lead in some compacity, rather it be in our homes, communities, organizations or on the job. Leadership isn't just a location, rank or position. Leadership is a calling of the chosen and a responsibility.  The Bible says, "To much is given, much more is required." (Luke 12:48). Let's paraphrase that Scripture. When you've been entrusted with more, you are required to handle such responsibilities responsibly. Well, do you do that? Leadership isn't just about you. It's, also, about others. It's about helping people better themselves. Do you do that? Okay. You sat in the meeting. You heard the prerequisites. You've received a clearer vision of the direction the family, community, organization or team is heading to. However, does it really register with you? Have you've grabbed hold of the vision and prerequisites? Or ...

The God Who Justifies The God who justifies us also qualifies us. Redemption qualifies us. The Holy Spirit empowers us. The Holy Spirit empowers us to do and to accomplish the great commission. If you have received Jesus and the Spirit of God lives within you, you are qualified. Jesus said, "The works you see Me do you will also do, and even greater." (John 14:12). Was Jesus implying that we will be greater than Himself or possess more power?" No, not at all. Jesus was implying that we will have greater opportunities to share the message of Jesus and demonstrate the Kingdom of God, since we live in an era where life itself is advancing.  Jesus knew that justification from sin and eternal death would not only liberate the church then but, also, the church now. His atonement would not only liberate our souls but, also, our purpose and His cause. Justification is through Jesus, and those He justifies, He qualifies. Those who have received Jesus are saved.
