CHARISMA VS CHARACTER: A LEADERSHIP INTEGRITY WATCH!

One of my spiritual daughter once wrote in response to describing someone that hurts her badly in this sum, that ‘CHARISMA’ without ‘CHARACTER’ makes a CARICATURE of life and the individual. And I completely and wholly agreed. Then I pause, think through it as always, though the essence is not knew and then asked – What do you think you worth?

And for us to be people of INTEGRITY we must resolve to be a person of PRINCIPLE, RESPONSIBILITY and ACCOUNTABILITY both to God and to mankind, and as gracious stewards of God for mankind.

Lets MEASURE in these insight statements below – I think, it might helps us to reconsider our doings as God’s Ambassador’s and embassy of His dwelling.

** FROM JETHRO (Moses Father in-law)

“And then you need to keep a sharp eye out for competent men—men who FEAR God, men of INTEGRITY, men who are INCORRUPTIBLE—and appoint them as leaders over groups organized by the thousand, by the hundred, by fifty, and by ten” Exodus 18:21.

** ARTHUR FRIEDMAN

“People of GENIUS are ADMIRED. People of WEALTH are ENVIED. People of POWER are FEARED. But only people of CHARACTER are TRUSTED”

** CHUKIE MORSI SNR

“The CHARISMA good of riches, friends, certificates, politics, enterprise and more, may take you to the top, but only INTEGRITY will KEEP and SUSTAIN you there”

What do you think you worth?

Therefore, SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!

“Let a man so ACCOUNT of us, as of the ministers of Christ, and STEWARDS of the mysteries of God. 2 Moreover it is REQUIRED in STEWARDS, that a man be found faithful. 3 But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged of you, or of man’s judgment: yea, I judge not mine own self” 1 Corinthians 4:1-3.

“As every man hath received the gift, even so MINISTER the same one to another, as GOOD STEWARDS of the manifold grace of God. 11 If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be GLORIFIED through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen” 1 Peter 4:10-11

“But be ye DOERS of the word, and not HEARERS only, DECEIVING your own selves. 23 For if any be a HEARER of the word, and not a DOER, he is like unto a man BEHOLDING his natural face in a glass: 24 for he BEHOLDETH himself, and goeth his way, and straightway FORGETTETH what manner of man he was. 25 But whoso looketh into the PERFECT law of liberty, and CONTINUETH therein, he being not a FORGETFUL hearer, but a DOER of the work, THIS MAN SHALL BE BLESSED IN HIS DEED” James 1:22-25.”
