TOPIC: Godly Character Compells Followership (Seeds Of Destiny 10 October 2024)

SCRIPTURE: And the women answered one another as they played, and said, Saul hath slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands. – 1 Samuel 18:7

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: People gladly and willingly follow a man with Godly character.
One good thing about Godly character is that it compels followership. People gladly and willingly follow a man with Godly character. This is because deep calleth unto deep (Psalm 42:7).

Seeds Of Destiny For Today 2023 MESSAGE:

For example, when David demonstrated the character of boldness, passion for God by bringing down Goliath, everyone instantly withdrew their followership from Saul to David. The women even started singing, “Saul has slayed his one thousand, David has slayed his ten thousand.” (1 Samuel 18:4)

And Saul immediately knew the implication of that statement. David’s name became a national song because he demonstrated a quality that Saul lacked, such that even though Saul was the positional leader, David became the functional leader.

In life, there are people in position, but there are others performing the function. The implication is that very soon, the functional leader will also take the position.

Beloved, I would like to ask you the following questions: what kind of leader are you? Are you a functional leader or a positional leader? Is it Godly character that took you to the position of leadership or you pulled someone down to get to the top? The fact is, every positional leader without character, will face an inevitable crash, like Saul. That shall not be your portion in Jesus’ Name.

My counsel to you is, like David, aim at developing quality character. Prioritize Godly character and excellence more than the inordinate craving for leadership with bankruptcy of character. When you maintain quality character, you will become a functional leader like David, and eventually you will be lifted to the place of authority and influence.

Remember this: People gladly and willingly follow a man with Godly character.

ASSIGNMENT:

1. Make up your mind to be a person of character and influence that commands followership effortlessly.
2. Like David, consistently maintain Godly character; be a leader by example.

PRAYER: Father, I receive the grace to command the followership of men by the force of Godly character and the lifestyle of excellence. Help me to be a leader by positive example, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.

QUOTE: You will do well to know that until your character is adjusted, your destiny cannot be established. Culled from the book, “30 Secrets To The Top” by Dr Paul Enenche.

DAILY READING: Matthew 12-14

AMAZING FACT: Our lungs are the only organs that float on water. This is because our lungs contain 300 million balloon-like structures known as alveoli.

PROPHETIC WORD (DECLARATION): The LORD engrace you to develop winning and positive character in this season, in Jesus’ Name.
