Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil: for thou art with are; thy staff they comfort me; thy rod
thy staff they comfort me.
Leaders don’t leave even at the face of dangers. They are
protective of their followers in such a way that they are made not to be afraid
of difficulties. God is always around to see His disciples through whatever
situation they’re in. He doesn’t hide when things may be rough, only to show up
when it becomes smooth despite oppositions.
Thou preparest a table before me in the
presence of my enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Kindly consider the issue of enemies. Enemies are opposing
forces which could be through man, harsh economic conditions or spiritual
forces. Yet amidst these adversities, God prepares a table; a suitable platform
full of provisions.
Leaders don’t hide under the guise of oppositions rather they
make provision suitable for their followers despite oppositions. With this
wonderful provision, promotion, attention and increase normally come the way of
the led. As leaders let us have our focus on creating avenues of provision for
those that look up to us instead of concentrating on the oppositions. Because
when we do we sink the boat in which we and our followers are in, thus leading
to destruction.
Once this godly attributes of leadership are put in place be
sure that you will not only have followers but loyal followers. Followers that
will also confess as David did when he experienced God’s guidance....
