INTRODUCTION:
Teaching from the Bible book of Numbers Chapter Eleven from verses one to Twenty Four: When the Israelites were on their way to Canaan under the leadership of Moses, it came to a point that the burden of their needs was weighing him down. God instructed him on what to do and that was gathering about seventy elders and officers of the tribes of Israel he know and to bring them before His presence. God told him to do this because; leadership is burdensome. This is because where there are people to be led and there are needs for the leadership to meet.
Numbers 11:11-14 says, And Moses said unto the LORD, Wherefore hast thou afflicted thy servant? and wherefore have I not found favour in thy sight, that thou layest the burden of all this people upon me? Have I conceived all this people? have I begotten them, that thou shouldest say unto me, Carry them in thy bosom, as a nursing father beareth the sucking child, unto the land which thou swarest unto their fathers? Whence should I have flesh to give unto all this people? for they weep unto me, saying, Give us flesh, that we may eat. I am not able to bear all this people alone, because it is too heavy for me.
6 FACTS ABOUT TRUE LEADERSHIP
There is leadership; but there is True Leadership. Concerning True leadership, continuing from where I stopped on my second post on the above mentioned subject. I will be sharing on the last two facts on TRUE LEADERSHIP and they are:
- TRUE LEADERS DOESN’T DO WHAT GOD TELLS THEM ANYHOW:
They try to find out how God wants to do His things or wants them to do what He asked them to do. Also, they let God do what He alone can do and they never try to do what God can do in order to show the people they are super stars.
Numbers 11:21-24 And Moses said, The people, among whom I am, are six hundred thousand footmen; and thou hast said, I will give them flesh, that they may eat a whole month. Shall the flocks and the herds be slain for them, to suffice them? or shall all the fish of the sea be gathered together for them, to suffice them? And the LORD said unto Moses, Is the LORD'S hand waxed short? thou shalt see now whether my word shall come to pass unto thee or not. And Moses went out, and told the people the words of the LORD, and gathered the seventy men of the elders of the people, and set them round about the tabernacle.
- TRUE LEADERSHIP DOESN’T WRESTLE AT GODS WORD:
They yearn for His word, open to hearing it and they believes in it. They always have rest of mind anytime God speaks His word with assurance. They are bold to declare it without any atom of fear in them; because they know that when it comes to what God says He will do, when He releases such words, He also releases His hand to perform it.
Numbers 11:21-24 And Moses said, The people, among whom I am, are six hundred thousand footmen; and thou hast said, I will give them flesh, that they may eat a whole month. Shall the flocks and the herds be slain for them, to suffice them? or shall all the fish of the sea be gathered together for them, to suffice them? And the LORD said unto Moses, Is the LORD'S hand waxed short? thou shalt see now whether my word shall come to pass unto thee or not. And Moses went out, and told the people the words of the LORD…
