10 Keys to Servanthood
Key number 2: Great servants make good leaders
Servanthood is really leadership with the right motive and heart
Leadership and servanthood are closely linked. In fact to be a leader following the biblical model you have to be willing to serve and when you serve you are actually portraying leadership. “The first shall be last and the last shall be first”.
In the end everyone serves something, it is either yourself or someone else.
It is dangerous to appoint someone who is not willing to serve in the capacity that you ask because it raises the question “are they wanting to serve the vision under your leadership or themselves and there own agenda?”
This is where sacrifice and faith come in. It is a sacrifice to put aside your own vision in order to serve someone else’s and it is faith that in serving someone else’s vision God will actually outwork the vision he has placed in you.
