The Mission and Vision of a Leader

Leaders must give their lives to causes that count. They must sense that what they do matters to God. Only then will they feel deep satisfaction for their work. Isaiah speaks some incredible words about the Messiah’s mission as a Leader:

• He was called from His mother’s womb (v. 1).
• He was gifted with specific resources (v. 2).
• He was protected supernaturally by God (v. 2).
• He was given a particular divine mission (v. 2).
• He was ordained to reflect God’s glory (v. 3).

While any leader might well covet these descriptions, only in the life of the Messiah, God’s servant sent from heaven to redeem earth, were they perfectly fulfilled. Yet they serve as a model for us as we pursue our God-given mission and vision.
