BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Mark 11; John 12

FIRE SCRIPTURE: Genesis 39:7-9; Psalms 78:70-72; 1 Peter 5:2-3

Genesis 39:7-9:
7 And it came to pass after these things, that his master’s wife cast her eyes upon Joseph; and she said, Lie with me.

8 But he refused, and said unto his master’s wife, Behold, my master wotteth not what is with me in the house, and he hath committed all that he hath to my hand;

9 There is none greater in this house than I; neither hath he kept back any thing from me but thee, because thou art his wife: how then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?

Psalms 78:70-72:
70 He chose David also his servant, and took him from the sheepfolds:

71 From following the ewes great with young he brought him to feed Jacob his people, and Israel his inheritance.

72 So he fed them according to the integrity of his heart; and guided them by the skilfulness of his hands.

1 Peter 5:2-3:
2 Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind;

3 Neither as being lords over God’s heritage, but being examples to the flock.

MEMORY VERSE: “And David perceived that the LORD had established him king over Israel, and that he had exalted his kingdom for his people Israel’s sake.” – 2 Samuel 5:12

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE:
It is easier to command than to obey; but he who has acquired the act of obedience is always a pleasant sight to God.

PRAISE WORSHIP: Take a worship song as led by the Holy Spirit

PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY:
LET THE ANOINTING OF LEADERSHIP COME UPON YOUR GLORY, IN THE NAME OF JESUS.

The MESSAGE:

Today’s devotional for meditation is very important for those who wish to leave a lasting legacy on earth in their walk with God.

A leader is one who rules, guides and inspires people in a particular way. Leadership is a personality trait ingrained in someone that makes them gain confidence, trust and obedience from others. This trait enables a person to command respect that will make others to submit to their leadership.

There are many qualities attached to leadership but integrity stands out. What is integrity? From the Latin derivative, ‘integer’, it means ‘untouched’, ‘intact’, ‘entire’. A leader with integrity is not divided. There is no duplicity of intentions. He does not pretend and is no hypocrisy. He has a single heart, mind and will to lead correctly. He is responsible, truthful, visionary, accountable, firm in purpose, understanding, confident, communicates well his vision, listens, appreciates others and is attentive to details, etc.

As Christians, one quality of integrity that stands out is the fear of God. Without the fear of God, no man can lead with integrity! Without the fear of God, all other qualities of integrity are shaded. This is why and where Joseph stands apart from all other biblical profiles in integrity, as far as leadership is concerned. Joseph feared God and obeyed Him.

Joseph was made a leader in foreign land. He was harassingly tempted to sin. He did not. His reason for not committing sin was because he had a single heart, mind and will to please God.
