Lead Out PeopleSample

Lead out people seeking God for His leading. When God appointed Judges, their role was to bring order to disorder within the community. They did not hold power but sought God to benefit the greater good. Judges were not dominating leaders but servant leaders. When Israel demanded God for a king to rule and have power over the nation is when things got messy. As Jesus followers, we must endeavor to be servant hearted leaders. Jesus was constantly seeking his Father - what his heart was, what he wanted him to do and say. If Jesus needed to listen for God’s voice how much more do we need his guiding, wisdom and leading? Let’s always be people who know and seek God for ourselves and who seek Him in the best interest of others. God places us in community for the benefit of each other. But remember, He is a personal God who desires to lead and direct each one of us.
