WHAT IS TRUE LEADERSHIP AT ALL
MY STUDIES FROM MATTEW 20 : 17 - 28
I greet you all in the name of our dear Lord Jesus Christ.Grace, peace and mercy be unto you all dear stemians.
Our dear Lord Jesus Christ predicted his trial and death as he headed for Jerusalem the last time during his earthly ministry. If one were in his position, he would have avoided such a journey but he chose willingly to go and die for the salvation of mankind.Jesus not like man and being selfless came to die for sinners.
God, the Father accepted his offering of himself and raised him up on the third day thus making him the author and finisher of our faith.
While Jesus was facing the challenge of his of his pending trial, you notice the preoccupation of the disciples (Vs. 20-21,24).
Many of the divisions and fights in the church of God today have to do with leadership issues. People want to be foremost leaders and so fight and do all sorts of questionable things to get there. The truth is that Christ is the only head of the church not any man. The rest of us are merely servants in the household of God with different gifts, talents and assignments for the building of the body.
Leadership from God's perspective means service to God and to others in total humility and obedience to God.
Pondering over the verse 27 and 28 you could see well that true leaders are servants. So that's why true leaders serve.
I pray that God help us to be selfless and truly serve since we are Christian leaders.
