Hello people, I have been missing from my blog for a while. Reason being, I have been rather busy with appointments and ministry.
I have been pondering much about this G12 vision thingy and would like to journal some of my thoughts. I really believe that there is authority, government and maturity when we establish our 12. We want to ask the Lord for deep growth as we teach our leaders to find their 12. Is there a need to be single-minded focus? Yes! Phil 3:13 One thing I do ..... Concentrate on one group and make it good soil for growth and we will see a bountiful harvest.
Some other thoughts:
1) We need a balanced lifestyle - Pray and ask the Holy Spirit where we have to juggle.
2) Set realistic goals for ourselves and our people.
3) Constant brokenness and a tender heart is needed - so that Christ can be formed in us.
4) Can our families see Christ in our process of discipling as a good model and example?
5) Being faithful in little so that God will grant us much in due season? Can we see beyond the menial tasks of faithfully discipling, loving and admonishing our 'sheep'?
6) Like Nehemiah, he had 52 days to fulfil his goal, did not get discouraged or become weak until he achieved it. Our people need to be united to work day and night towards the vision, have clear faith and not lack direction.
7) Leaders need to have a good positive attitude and stay motivated in order to impart faith. Engrave the vision in the hearts of the people.
8) An outpouring of the Holy Spirit is experienced when we complete our 12... each person must have a right heart that pleases God.
9) Pray continually for the nurturing of your 12 ... so that they will be strong and successful in all they undertake. They are your 'children' and there is a great responsibility to bring them up in the instruction and fear of the Lord.
That's it for now... will add more along the way .... tata!
