Today's Verse:
"Light shines on the righteous and joy on the upright in heart." – Psalm 97:11
Heavenly Father,
What makes people leaders? We have so many "leaders" surrounding us... At work, at church, at stores, at restaurants, at banks, at government...... Father, just what make them qualify to lead us? By "the fruit of the Spirit which is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control." (Gal 5:22-23)
What makes people want to follow a leader? Why would some people be so passionate, so passionate that they would give up their job, their homes and would follow a leader to the other end of the world? Why would they be so crazy? The answer lies in the character qualities of the individual person.
Father, it takes courage for leaders to dream big and to act on their dreams, in order to make changes to the world. It takes a lot of boldness to step up to be a leader and to pratice and practice and practice in order to attract their followers. Practice what? Pratice to say the words of God, practice to preach like Jesus, practice to act upright, practice....
Father, assist us so that we may walk in the path You have arranged for us and let us achieve our real potential by trusting Your leading, in every step of our way.
In Christ's glorious Name we pray, Amen.
