“As leaders, obedience is critically important for us and this is why obedience leads to blessing, where disobedience leads to destruction. Obedience requires us to acknowledge that we are not God, we aren’t in control and we are willing to be lead. God won’t use leaders who are not willing to be led by Him. He will, however, use leaders who are willing to be lead and who are obedient in their actions in the midst of doubt.”

Jesus said…
“Why do you call me ‘Lord, Lord,’ and not do what I tell you? Everyone who comes to me and hears my words and does them, I will show you what he is like: he is like a man building a house, who dug deep and laid the foundation on the rock. And when a flood arose, the stream broke against that house and could not shake it, because it had been well built. But the one who hears and does not do them is like a man who built a house on the ground without a foundation. When the stream broke against it, immediately it fell, and the ruin of that house was great.”
Luke 6:46–49 ESV
Dear Lord, Father and Creator of the heavens and Earth, forgive me for not being obedient to You, in the big and small things. Help me to give my days to You, give my struggles to You, and surrender everything I do to You. I humble myself and open my ears to hear Your voice, Your will for me. Help me to be obedient to You and Your will for my life so that You may use me to be a leader and example for You and to others in my life. I love You and praise You.
In Jesus’ Holy name, Amen.
