The Psychology of Leadership.

The Psychology of Leadership.

True leadership is more than just keeping your people safe during a time of danger. It's about giving them a real sense of protection and assurance from harm, despite the dangers facing the country. It's about making the right decisions to protect the marginalized and the vulnerable, while keeping the rest of the public safe, good leaders will always reassure the people, not leaving them more vulnerable or even worse, left to die. Good leaders always recognize the Sovereignty of God in a crisis and personally ask for the assistance of God, despite the public backlash for doing so. Leaders are not just entrusted with the financial well being of the people, but also of the spiritual wellbeing of her people. In History the best leaders have always been believers in some form of a God.

Good leaders face uncertainty with faith, not with more uncertainty, also willing to give up their comfort for the comfort of the people. Good leaders always acknowledge their own weaknesses and sins, in order to make themselves available to the help that comes from a higher power. Good leadership isn't perfect but always strives to protect and comfort. Good leaders should put the people's needs before themselves to assure the people that they will be safe, and are in good hands. They will always acknowledge their own inability to solve a problem, but will reassure the people that they have faith that with God's help, anything is possible.

In times of crisis, good leadership will put their own agendas aside, in order to calm and protect the people. They will always acknowledge that evil and sin exist, and they will put measures in place that will protect the faith of her people, not destroy it. Good leadership will not interfere with the free exercise of religion, and will strive to protect the faith of the common man, not necessarily the exulted man.

Good leadership always administers justice with mercy, and in a judgment will always keep in mind the vulnerability of the one accused. Good leadership is a grace of God, and always wins the admiration and favour of the people not by force, but by goodwill. Good leadership will not take away the rights of her people even in a crisis, but will strive to find solutions to the problem, while maintaining the freedom of the nation which has been entrusted to them by God alone. This is Mike.

Age of Brokenness.

  We are living in an age of brokenness, no matter what age you are, you probably have been touched with relationships falling apart, which causes more and more people to live in isolation. In this generation there is less of an incentive to heal and reconcile relationships, but that doesn’t excuse the amount of people who are broken. Why people don’t seem to be motivated to heal relationships is because our beliefs about faith and God have changed, really giving us less of an incentive to do what our religion says. If I act from my personal beliefs, but the person that I am responding to has abandoned religious beliefs, than the response to my wanting things to be better can be misinterpreted and rejected then by someone else. Generally when a society has expectations about broken relationships, loneliness and isolation, and the beliefs are generally accepted, society becomes a more compassionate society, because all value the same things. When religious values are undermined and ...

The Parable of the Ten Virgins.

 Matthew 25:1-13 I have discovered a remarkable interpretation of this parable that I would like to share with you. The story in the Bible goes like this:    “At that time the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom.   2  Five of them were foolish and five were wise.   3  The foolish ones took their lamps but did not take any oil with them.   4  The wise ones, however, took oil in jars along with their lamps.   5  The bridegroom was a long time in coming, and they all became drowsy and fell asleep. 6  “At midnight the cry rang out: ‘Here’s the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!’ 7  “Then all the virgins woke up and trimmed their lamps.   8  The foolish ones said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil; our lamps are going out.’ 9  “‘No,’ they replied, ‘there may not be enough for both us and you. Instead, go to those who sell oil and buy som...

The Existence of God

  Since the beginning of time, man has learned about the existence of God. It began in the Garden of Eden where Adam and Eve walked and talked with God, however when they sinned, they died spiritually and their closeness with God was severed. In Genesis 4:26 it reads “Seth also had a son, and he named him Enosh. At that time people began to call on the name of the LORD.” Seth was the third son of Adam and Eve, so it’s fair to say that not too long after mankind fell, we also called upon the Lord.   From that time until now, mankind was closer to God then, but it’s a modern shift that the world is in the state it is in now, mainly unbelief, because even 30 years ago from now, mankind was closer to God. It is also true that in ancient Israel’s history, there have been generations that fell away and forgot God, but in the time of the prophets Israel was never left without a word from the Lord. Many generations have come and gone, but there have been remarkable generations all thr...
