SCRIPTURE: Job 34; 1 Cor. 4-6
1 Corinthians 4:1-4
Don’t imagine us leaders to be something we aren’t. We are servants of Christ, not his masters. We are guides into God’s most sublime secrets, not security guards posted to protect them. The requirements for a good guide are reliability and accurate knowledge. It matters very little to me what you think of me, even less where I rank in popular opinion. I don’t even rank myself. Comparisons in these matters are pointless. I’m not aware of anything that would disqualify me from being a good guide for you, but that doesn’t mean much. The Master makes that judgment.
OBSERVATIONS: The requirements for a good guide are reliability and accurate knowledge.
APPLICATION: Joey, be someone upon whom your people may rely. Study to show yourself approved by God to share knowledge.
PRAYER: God, with your help, I will be who you call me to be. Grant me your strength to do so, and the wisdom of your Holy Spirit to speak truth. In Christ I ask this, Amen.
