Good Leadership

"The Lord spoke to Moses." Nu 1:1 NIV

A good leader is like a ship's good captain; they plan
the whole trip in their mind before they leave the dock.
They have a clear vision of their destination, they
understand what it will take to get there, they know
who needs to be on board for the trip to be
successful, and they recognize obstacles long before
they appear on the horizon. And because they prepare
well, good leaders can take their people just about
anvwhere. Moses was such a leader. He spent fortv
days praying and fasting on a mountain, refusing to
leave until he understood what God wanted him to do.
Then he came back and communicated it to the
people so they could participate in the vision. In
Leadership Promises For Your Week, Dr. John Maxwell
writes: "As a good leader, Moses methodically
arranged the tribal camps in the wilderness (See Nu
2:34). We would do well to.organize as he did. (1)
Give time for planning and organizing. Determine your
primary purpose. (2) Understand where you are
before trying to develop a strategy. (3) Prioritize the
needs and goals of the team by asking the right
questions. (4) Write goals that are realistic,
measurable, and convicting. (5) Clarify goals and
communicate with your team. (6) Identify possible
obstacles. Have an open system approach to your
planning. (7) Budget your cost and time by scheduling
everything you can and setting deadlines. (8) Study
the results. Evaluation prevents stagnation and
exaggeration." If you want God to bless your plan, you
must have a plan He can bless. And it must come from
God Himself.

So, talk to God today about His plan for your life.
