In leadership and life in general, you need to know three things; at least based from my experience. This is what my principle as I grow in my serving and ministry in God's Kingdom, for God's kingdom and with God. 1.KNOW YOURSELF! You need to know who you are. What are your capabilities? You need to ask yourself: What is my strength? What is my weaknesses? You need to know those areas of your life so you can assess yourself to what extent you can stretch, what can you teach, which area you need help from others, what i can not really do or what else I can learn and improve. Know your identity in Christ for you to withstand the challenges and battle. Knowing your place in Heaven and your stand in the most Holy God is very important for you to be able to present yourself to people and reflect God through you. 2. KNOW YOU FRIENDS/PEOPLE UNDER YOUR CARE! You need to know the people around you in all aspect. In totality! You will never be able to teach them, improve them or challenge them if you don't know exactly what is their weaknesses and strengths. You need to know which area of their life they are good at and develop them from there. Which areas they need to work out some more and disciple themselves. When is the best time to challenge them also boils down on how deep you know the people around you. You will never be able to help them, uplift them and rebuke them if needed if you never went truly personal with them. Go love the people like Jesus did, and that is the only time you r heart will be in one dance with theirs. 3.KNOW YOUR ENEMY! If you know yourself and the people you will know for sure where and when the enemy will attack. What areas of your life will be magnified in its eyes. That enemy will always be on the look on those areas where we are all vulnerable. If you know yourself and the enemy you will more likely be much prepared in case. He is no fight with the One Who is Within you but certainly he can pin down "YOU"! If you know your enemy you will surely know that Praying and seeking more of God is the only way you can escape the trap that beast prepared for you and for the people whom you love. I always remind myself of thise three key points and you can try to remember also. But before you can even identify and know those three. You Must KNOW YOUR GOD! Who is bigger than everything and all circumstance in life. He is in the beginning. He created all things. He is God Whom is ALL KNOWING!!! |
