What Makes A Good Leader
May 23, 2024
What makes a good leader? In my city, we keep electing leaders that don’t get it all right. Our debt is high as are crime and taxes. Our educational system is weak, as is true justice and accountability.
God’s design for good leadership included people who spoke truth and revealed reality—prophets. People who were mediators, reconciled fairness—priests. And people who ruled fairly—kings. We have none of those positions. But we need all of those roles for government to be successful today.
We are all called to promote such leadership through prayer. I Timothy 2: 1, 2 directs to pray, ask, intercede, and be thankful for ‘Kings’ among us and all in high places.
To pray with insight, learn what the leaders do, believe, and we may even glimpse their hearts.
