The Lord will make you the head (leader) and not the tail (follower); and you will be above only, and you will not be beneath, if you listen and pay attention to the commandments of the Lord your God, which I am commanding you today, to observe them carefully. Deuteronomy 28:13 (AMP)
As believers, how do we bring change to people’s lives? Hiding from the world doesn’t work. Neither does judging or attacking people we disagree with.
No, the only thing that causes people to change is inviting Jesus into their lives. It’s crucial that we live in a Spirit Contemporary way so that everywhere you go, you’re attracting others to Jesus.
God’s Word gives us the powerful principles we need to live this way. As you grow in the Word, you learn how to develop a reputation for excellence. You discover how to reach out to the people around you. You learn to raise a family that loves Jesus and blesses others.
In fact, we need to pass this mindset on to our kids and raise them to be Spirit Contemporary leaders. Why? Because the world needs phenomenal believers to rise up in politics, education, science, the arts and every other area. So let’s train our children in the ways of God and teach them to excel. Let’s raise the next generation to be the greatest blessing the world has ever seen!
Stay plugged into God’s Word and get involved in the world around you. You’re created to be the head and not the tail. Wherever you are, God’s blessings are chasing you down. And it’s His presence in you that will attract people to the source of the most amazing life they could ever find—a life with Jesus.
