CAN I CORRECT A LEADER, PERHAPS GENTLY

CAN I CORRECT A LEADER, PERHAPS GENTLY 

Listen, humility always has a following; there is always a character congruence. Hence there's nothing gentle about correcting an experience that brought you forth into existence. 

 

One of the ways to be successful is to know what you are not, and John the Baptist demonstrated that by admitting He wasn't the Messiah (thus the leader of the moment). Walking in the delusion that you can do and be what your leader is : I'll categorise that as the apoge of distinct folly, the finest formation of a simpleton before his organised precipitous fall. The Bible says pride (noticing issues) leads (goes before) a fall. 


If you want everyone to be at your level, then you are not wise. God respects authority over anointing. Though lucifer corrupted his anointing as a cherub, still higher than the archangels, Micheal couldn't rebuke him at the contention over Moses' body, so he invoked the Lord who was higher in authority than a cherub. Bible says only a fool says in his heart that there's no God (thus no recognition of a higher authority). 


If your leader makes a mistake or corrupts the anointing, Romans 14:4, MSB says God doesn't need your help. Wow! Paul taught Timothy the first thing to do for leaders, he said “First of all, supplication be made to all in authority”. When the flesh tries to bring an issue between you and a leader, supplicate—speak in tongues for that person. Do not talk back. You do not have the spiritual right to correct or rebuke an elder, thus a man of faith (good report) in the Spirit. Referring to the petrine records, it's clear that rebuking someone higher than you is the voice of the devil. Be wise!


Now, being young like Timothy was means being naturally blind to many things, just like Elishas servant whom the Prophet asked that God open his eyes. Being young in something is a risk in itself, so you need guidance. Recognize someone higher and submit to them. Being young is, in itself, a disadvantage to stability. So are we denying that we are young? No! But we are denying its power of error over us.

AN UNDER-ACHIEVED PERSON IS NEVER AN AUTHORITY FOR YOU

  AN UNDER-ACHIEVED PERSON IS NEVER AN AUTHORITY FOR YOU  On the path to greatness there are lots of things you would have to face, but one of the things you must not face is public opinion about you, it ought not to mean anything to you, only God's word should mean everything to you.  Listen to your leader and to God, and let their words and report about you drown every other voice with Focus! One time my Pastor, Rev. Hutchison, said to me, and that was addressed directly, he stated : “sometimes the only way you master skill at a thing is by doing it continually”. Then I learnt you don't develop skill and excellence by listening to opinions, you develop skill by sticking to instructions and practice. Thus, by doing what you must do, regardless.  Let me make this very simple for you : “never respect, esteem or hold highly the words of people who have an opinion for you about something they haven't yet accomplished”. In your relation with such a person, you must consc...

WHY ARE YOU STILL NOT IN A RELATIONSHIP

DAYSTAR ANSWERS A MAJOR QUESTION BOTHERING LADIES IN GODLY RELATIONSHIPS Honest & Open Conversations With Pst. π’Ÿπ’Άπ“Žπ“ˆπ“‰π’Άπ“‡ π’₯π’žπ»π‘€ During one of those interesting panel conversations, an eye-opening and heart-stirring session as one panelist described it, thoughtful and practical questions were directed at Daystar on the discussion theme " WHY ARE YOU STILL NOT IN A RELATIONSHIP ".  Here, Pastor took the opportunity to narrow in on the balance between submission and respect from a woman and a man, respectively. And how this signals one's readiness for commitment — stating that the first step towards anything relationship : is "being honest with yourself", and not following the crowd into one of life's most important decisions, thus, the choice of love and romantic commitment. On the note of honesty, he sited an instance from a legend where an elephant and a mice were to cross a bridge. The mice couldn't proceed because it would fall through the...

YOU’RE OUT OF YOUR MIND CONCERNING MARRIAGE

  YOU’RE OUT OF YOUR MIND CONCERNING MARRIAGE The Role Of The Mind We Have In Christ For Relationships To lay emphasis on this controversial phrase “you’re out of your mind,” and to avoid any form of misguided thinking, let us first consider its biblical roots from 1 Corinthians 2:16, where it reads, “... But we have the mind of Christ,” which in effect is God’s Word. Sadly, most Christians live through life thinking outside this mind we have in Christ, inevitably causing them to act independently (thus acting beside themselves, used in Acts 26), which in itself is an old English phrase for delusion, irrational thinking, and ultimately madness. Conclusively, they act outside the mind they have in Christ, which is the truth of God’s Word concerning life’s issues, thereby taking (obviously misguided) independent decisions due to absent governance and dominance from the mind of Christ. Now concerning the mind of Christ regarding marriage, to begin with, even Jesus went back to the Fat...
