*CFI~WEEKLY DEVOTION®*🇺🇬
Sunday 3rd March 2019 Apostle George Kuch
*Do you esteem your leaders?.* (part 1-introduction)
_And we beseech you,
brethren, *to know* them which labour among you, and are over you in the Lord,
and admonish you; [13] And to esteem them *very highly in love* for their
work's sake. And be at peace among yourselves._
1 Thessalonians 5:12-13 KJV
He uses the Greek word *eido* for ...to know...as stated in
verse 12, this is to acknowledge and be aware as a discipline in your character.
Most people never understand this probably because they've never been a leader
or occupied such a position. You may never comprehend some of the peculiar
challenges that come along.
The challenges of leadership are very peculiar to leaders
and until one becomes or takes that active course can he attempt to speak in
line.
The challenges and responsibilities are enormous!, that's
why every child of God who understands this prays for their leaders at all
times.
The more you pray for them, the more understanding,
tolerant, and appreciative you'll be of their work and service, It is only at
this place that God qualifies you for leadership.
Some children are quick to criticize leaders, they seem to
always "know" it all!.
Just because you're not comfortable with some decisions
taken doesn't necessarily make them wrong, learn patience and acknowledge that
fact that God is working in them.
Hebrews 13:17 says;
*Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit
yourselves: for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account, that
they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that is unprofitable for you.*
It is pride and arrogance to think that you know more than
you're leader, and think that you've earned the right to speak out on them!.
Humility comes from a place of patience and tolerance.
If you've chosen to submit under a given authority, give thy
self wholly to the leadership there
under, for then shall your qualification be made manifest to all.
Remember God chosen leaders are;
Approved in private, chosen before position, a solution to prevailing need.
God richly bless you.
