If
you walk in the path I have shown you, and value the commands I give you and do
what I say, then… (Leviticus 26:3)
God
speaks clearly about the results He expects. The answer is always the same. He
requires that you walk in the way He has prepared, you recognize the words He
speaks to be Truth, and you spend your Life following Him; obeying what He
asks. This is the Lord’s clear expectation for each man and woman He creates.
In
a very similar way, an effective leader will communicate his or her
expectations in a clear, complete, and appropriate way to each, individual
member of his or her community. There can be no accountability unless you
provide each person with a definition of the role that individual will play and
the responsibilities that come with the role. Have you done the hard work of
asking God to help you see His individualized plans for your responsibility to
lead each of your people? Have you modeled and taught them to give clear-cut
expectations to those whom they influence? The job of a leader is to build
other leaders who also learn how to follow God’s plan.
Ask
God today to give you clarity of thought and the voice to communicate His will
to the people you lead.
