FRIDAY, 28TH JULY, 2023.

Author: PASTOR DR. SAMUEL AYORINDE

TOPIC:  12 LEADERSHIP PRINCIPLES OF JESUS THAT INSPIRE ME – Part 2

MEMORIZE: “And He sat down, called the twelve, and said to them, "If anyone desires to be first, he shall be last of all and servant of all.” Mark 9:35.

SCRIPTURE READING: Luke 22:24-27.

“Now there was also a dispute among them, as to which of them should be considered the greatest. 25 And He said to them, "The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them, and those who exercise authority over them are called 'benefactors.' 26 "But not so among you; on the contrary, he who is greatest among you, let him be as the younger, and he who governs as he who serves. 27 "For who is greater, he who sits at the table, or he who serves? Is it not he who sits at the table? Yet I am among you as the One who serves.”

EXPOSITION:

Yesterday, we started examining the great qualities of Jesus’ leadership that we must learn and apply in order to have an effective ministry. We have studied six principles yesterday and we are going to proceed to the other points.

7. Jesus was into self-development. Jesus constantly slipped away to spend time with God. 

8. Jesus was into leadership development and replacement. He very purposefully prepared the disciples to take over the ministry. He pushed people beyond what they felt they were capable of doing. 

9. Jesus held followers to high expectations. Jesus was not afraid to make huge requests of people. “Follow Me” meant the disciples had to drop their agenda to do so. He told the disciples they must be willing to lose everything to follow Him. 

10. Jesus cared more about people than about rules and regulations. He was willing to jeopardize Himself personally by breaking the “rules” to help someone in need. 

11. Jesus celebrated success in ministry. He rewarded people generously who were faithful to Him and His cause. 

12. Jesus finished well. Any questions whether His ministry was effective? Still working today. 

Any other reasons you admire the leadership of Jesus? Kindly examine it.

PRAYER POINT:  Lord, help us to walk in your footsteps and learn your leadership principles and practice it in Jesus name.

Lord, help our leaders to follow your leadership principles in order to be fruitful leaders in Jesus name.

DAILY BIBLE READING IN A YEAR –  Isaiah  29 – 32.
