Spirit of Leadership

THE RESTORATION OF THE LEADERSHIP SPIRIT his decision and turned his back on the security and safety of the farm. He followed the great beast into the forest and was restored to his destiny, his reality, and himself. This is the challenge of all humanity—restoration to self.

T RUE LEADERSHIP HAS MORE TO DO WITH MIND - SET THAN WITH METHODS .

Despite humanity’s declaring independence from its Source and manifesting the tragic and harmful results of its rebellion, the Creator hasn’t changed his mind about his original purposes for us. He is passionately commit ted to our being reconnected to him for two principal rea sons: (1) We are made in his image, and he doesn’t want his image to be distorted or disgraced in the world, and (2) his purposes are permanent; he always accomplishes what he originally sets out to do. THE PERMANENCE OF PURPOSE As we have read in the original text of the creation nar rative, the purpose for man’s creation was to have domin ion over the earth as ruler over the environment. Man was created to be a leader and was designed with the ability to manifest his leadership nature. The past and future of man kind is leadership. Leadership is your destiny. The Creator is committed to fulfilling his purposes for us, which he initiated when he first created us. In order for him to accomplish what he originally purposed for us, he first has to reconnect us to himself. His original intent for mankind is the motivation behind his plan of restoration and all his interactions with us.
