THE EAGLE WAY

By Leave a Comment

THE EAGLE WAY: LEADERSHIP AND MENTORSHIP!

A CHILD is BORN, but a SON is MADE. Sonship is not a MERE GIVEN neither should a CHILD BE BORN FOR NOTHING. The EAGLE WAY – It’s about THE EAGLE and EAGLET, that is, LEADERSHIP and MENTORSHIP. For SUCCESS without a SUCCESSOR is failure in disguise; in same scenario, PROSPERITY without POSTERITY in view is a complete unprecedented disaster in waiting.

The EAGLE unlike the OSTRICH is known for replicating it’s kind, that is, are DILIGENT in making the EAGLET to become another KING of the Sky. It’s a believe that the sky is so wide and broad that there can be no room for clashes and jealousy for any that WILLS DILIGENTLY to BECOME and to MAKE others to be on the sky. That’s the act that makes the Eagle to turn the Eaglet to be king of the sky. This phenomenon is same, whether in family, ministry, business, career, politics and in every endeavour of human acts of doing life.

In the same scenario, Jesus said to Peter, FEED (look well after) my SHEEP and my LAMBS. When the SHEEP are well looked after they give life to the LAMBS; and when the LAMBS are well looked after, they BECOME a SHEEP to give life to another lamb. That’s the process of PRODUCTIVITY and reproducing ones kind BECOMES inevitable. Therefore the EAGLE WAY! is to MAKE CONVERTS into DISCIPLES and to MAKE DISCIPLES to MAKE CONVERTS, that is, to replicates to other Disciples.

Hence LEADERSHIP without appropriate MENTORSHIP destroys the SEED of GREATNESS; and MENTORSHIP without appropriate LEADERSHIP is very dangerous to PRODUCTIVE humanity, and as such to ones plans, purposes and pursuits in any endeavour of doing life.

Stop being a BOSS today! Be a LEADER and start MENTORING. Stop being a headless chicken WANDERING around, locate a LEADER and SUBMIT to MENTORSHIP. Greatness is within your reach, cleave to the wind, the Holy Spirit, He will glide you to greatness if you are willing and obedient.

I PRAY YOU LEARN WISDOM TODAY.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!

He saith unto him, FEED MY SHEEP. 17 He saith unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, LOVEST thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, LOVEST thou me?

Which Way?

Demetrius was a silversmith whose business in the making of silver shrines of Artemis. (Acts 19:24) When Paul came to teach the truth that man-made gods were no gods at all – this threatened Demetrius’ business. It may have been the truth but this teaching of The Way was jeopardising the reputation of his business and his ability to make money. He wanted to make sure by any means that this teaching from Paul would do no further harm. He plotted against Paul and brought many against Paul in an attempt to stop the teachings.

Jesus is the Way, the truth and the life

In the same manner people tweak & alter the doctrine to suit that which they are doing. In Acts 19:11-12 God performed miracles through Paul whereby handkerchiefs that had touched him touched those who needed healing and deliverance and they were healed and delivered.  Some present day preachers want to use hankies routinely to get people  to send donations in exchange for the hankies. The use of hankies is fine if that’s what the Holy Spirit directs one to do.

The other case was the one of the slave girl possessed by an evil spirit that did fortune telling, (Acts 16:16-18), who followed the Apostles around saying,

“These men are servants of the Most High God, who are telling you the way to be saved”

Paul discerned that this was by an evil spirit, got annoyed and he cast the demon out of her. Her owners who were making money out of the existence of this evil spirit were not pleased. How are they supposed to make money now. They wanted to get things back to the way they were including the evil spirit – as long as they got what they wanted.

We need to have a personal relationship with God, we need to know what He says, have no doubts about what he says, study the Word so that we are not deceived and taken to and fro with every wind of doctrine.

Sometimes we take a path, while we’re making progress, we learn that we are not in the right path. Stop, get off and follow the right path. Seek first the kingdom of God and all else will follow. Material wealth is temporal. No amount of embarrassment or financial expense warrants you tweaking what the Word of God says in order to make you look right. It will never be worth it. It always pays to let God be the guide – He’s always right after all.

Are there any ‘gods’ , any items of so much importance in your personal life that you would die for, that seem to take precedence over the Word of God in your life – they need to move. Moved to where they belong. Don’t lose sight of God even in prosperity.
