3 C’s of Leaders

3 C’s of Leaders

 

 

(1) The first “C” is Conviction. 

 

If we do the Lord's work without conviction, one day we will have to lean left or right.  Especially in the work that the leader wants to do, if he doesn’t have conviction in the words of the Holy Spirit, those who follow him cannot help but be anxious.  Therefore, the leader must first be sure whether it is the will of the Lord or not. 

 

(2) The second “C” is Confidence. 

 

The leader who has conviction that it is the Lords’ will has confidence.  Therefore, he is confident that what he is doing is what the Lord wants him to do.  So he doesn’t get discouraged, shaken, and confused by what anyone says.  The basis for this confidence is the assurance given by the Holy Spirit.  We have confidence because we believe that it is the Lord’s will, and we are confident that the Lord will faithfully accomplish it through us. 

 

(3) Third “C” is Consistency. 

 

The leader who has conviction and is confident is consistent in his work.  The leader shouldn't do this and that.  The leader should not be told that he is inconsistent from his followers.  When I think about why some leaders do this and that inconsistently, I think the reason is lack of conviction and confidence.  I think too many leaders forget the value or importance of consistency.  They must be confident in what they believe and should have conviction that it is the Lord’s will, and must complete their work with consistency.  If the leader goes one way or another without consistency, the followers will inevitably be confused.
