Recommitment I am Making in My Leadership - pt. 3
Psalm 78:72 – Integrity of heart and skill of hand.
B. Moses made several changes due to demand on his leadership.
I am recommitting myself to these aspects of leadership as we walk together thru 2021.
Review:
1. Moses recommitted to prayer. Exodus 18:19
2. He re-committed to communicate – verse 20
3. He laid out a vision – verse 20
4. He developed a plan – verse 20
5. He simplified his schedule to increase his effectiveness.
In a complex and busy world, people need a church that is simple. The churches that are growing and full of life have a simple and clear way of making disciples.
Simple church leaders are designers.
They design opportunities for spiritual growth.
Complex church leaders are programmers.
How do people respond to simple?
They have Desire for it
They adopt Use of it
They develop Loyalty to it
They Provoke Interest of it into others
They Help others use it
They find great Contentment in it
Simple does not mean unspiritual
Spiritual does not mean complicated
Process is important through all of this.
6. He selected and developed leaders – verse 21
7. He released them to do ministry – verse 22
8. He did what they could not do – verse 26
C. Smart leaders get results. verse 23
God gave strength to Moses
God gave peace to the people
These two things always appear in successful leadership. Strength increases and peace multiplies when leaders understand that they can’t do it all – and that they are willing to change themselves to become increasingly effective.
