Live like Leaders.
How’s it going?
Daniel/Discipline.
Leadership is using your influence.
What would you look for if you were responsible for hiring the next boss of a major company?
what traits/features would you look for in a new company boss?
Experience, education, strong personality, dresses well, handsome, tall, etc.
What part of a leader do you think matters most to God?
Out of all the choices: looks, qualifications, education, experience, discipline even.
What matters most?
Story of David
King Saul
Started well, went bad.
Samuel = prophet.
He was upset with Saul.
God heard his prayers and told him to go, find, and bless the man God was going to chose to be king next.
Here’s the story of what happened.
There’s a huge lesson in leadership for us!
The Heart of a leader is what matters most to God.
It’s all about heart!
God looks at our hearts.
Not literally, he doesn’t hold up an x-ray machine and is like, “dude, nice aorta!
You’re pulmonary valve is lit.”
NO.
When we talk about heart, we talk about your character.
Who you really are.
Who you are when you’re by yourself and no one is watching.
Who you are in your thoughts.
Who you are when you have an opportunity to do what is right.
So, who are you?
That is what this idea of “heart” is all about.
How is your heart?
Tonight is a chance to have a heart-screening to make sure we’re healthy.
The reality is, there are some pretty unhealthy hearts in this room.
Honestly, at times, I let my heart get pretty unhealthy.
The condition of our hearts is such an intimate, personal thing.
We’re probably decent judges of our own outward appearance.
For example, I know I should lose a few pounds, look like a baby when I shave my beard, and has good fashion sense like once a week.
But it’s hard to look in a mirror for your heart.
before a leader can lead anyone else, they need to be caring for their own heart.
They need to give their hearts a check-up.
We’re supposed to love/serve others.
Too often we lead/serve to get something in return.
To get attention, support, affirmation, etc.
A Healthy Leader has a Healthy Heart.
We’ve got work to do.
David is a good example to us.
Can you imagine?
Can you imagine if you wanted to be a leader.
If you worked hard to be the best at what you do.
You practice, you keep yourself disciplined, you’re focused.
On the outside you have everything going for you.
You look the part, you talk the part, you act the part.
ALL of that would be useless if your heart was muck.
I fear that many of you are on that path.
You’ve figured out the system.
Saying the right things, looking good, impressing men.
But you’re not fooling God.
Sooner or later, what’s in your heart will reveal itself and your leadership skills will be ruined.
Fake it until you make it is very wrong when it comes to our hearts.
The heart of a leader is the most important part of a leader
