Spirit Taught Leadership: Who is Your Teacher? Purpose Reminder Christian Mission
-
- Christianity
Who is your teacher?
If you are to understand who a person is, simply check the teacher and teachings that exerts so much authority over the person.
Everyone is a product, an outcome and direct manifestation of the influences that comes from teachings and teachers.
Those who underrate the role of teachings and teachers are yet to understand the reality of how human behaviour, philosophy, values and spirituality are formed and fixed.
Personally, I have learnt to find out why people are who they are. Why they behave in a particular way and why it is difficult for some people to respond to change.
The bottom line is always the kind of teaching that has formed their thinking or the teachings they are currently exposed to.
That's why I'm always interested to know the books people read, the person they mostly quote or refer to when they talk.
When I see a leader or an emerging leader, I can easily describe who you are or the kind of person you are becoming by simply discovering who your teacher is.
Of course, some people have many teachers like apostle Paul said. Yet, you realize they have traits traceable to those various teachers.
For instance, when I discovered the nature and direction of my leadership calling in Christ, I began to see the necessity for the following.
1. The need to audit the teachings that shaped my growing up biologically and educationally.
2. The need to audit religious teachings I was exposed to while growing up.
3. The need to understand human teachers I will need for what the Lord wants to do with my life.
But in all of these needs, a time came that the Lord specifically showed me the greatest need of my life and leadership assignment which must be based on the Spirit Taught.
This Spirit Taught Life and Leadership has been the pillar of my life and is still the only way I find strength to live and lead every day.
In this devotion series, Spirit-Taught Life and Leadership, we will be responding to the ministry of the Greatest Teacher - The Holy Spirit.
I'm trusting Him to expose us deeper into our need of Him in this area.
The Spirit-taught Life and Leadership is the answer to our abiding in Christ. It is the only way we can really manifest God and His Kingdom.
