Scriptural Text:
Genesis 18:19 (NKJV).
“For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the LORD, to do justice and judgment; that the LORD may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him.”
Leadership is an important bedrock of any institution. Whether it be a family, business organization or nation, the prosperity of an institution is tied to the quality of leadership it possesses. Thus, having the right kind of leadership in an institution is top priority for success.
In our opening text, we see a testimonial given by God about Abraham, which alludes to his style of leadership. He was praised for his ability to command his household after himself in doing the will of God. This is leadership at its best; the ability to inspire and lead others to act in a way that one has fully exemplified.
Leading by example involves setting a positive example for others to follow. It is modeling the behavior that you intend to see in others, and thus creating a culture of excellence that inspires people to be what you want them to be.
When you lead by example, you set the tone for the people you lead, making them see that it is possible to become or do what is required of them. In return, leading by example earns you the trust and respect of those you lead, making it easier to command their compliance.
Thus, in your quest to lead your team, family, or organization to success, prioritize being an exemplary leader, as this is one of the fastest ways to create a sense of shared purpose and motivate your team for success.

The prosperity of an institution is tied to the quality of leadership it possesses. Hmmm…. So true my Prophet. In my little observation as a leader, I find the major problem not been the leader but those who he mentors or the the following-leadership. Are they disciples or just followers? Examples Our LORD JESUS and Judas the betrayer, Ejisha and gahazi and Abraham and Lot.
Truely in the end, an exemplary leadership is key to success of any organisation. Thank you my Prophet of God.

Our lifestyle is the number 1 tool in leadership. Beyond words that are spoken, followers tend follow action and
patterns
As Christians, we are called to lead by example and be a light to the world. It’s not enough to simply preach the gospel; we must also live it out in our daily lives. Jesus himself said in John 13:15, “For I have given you an example, that you also should do just as I have done to you.” Therefore, we must strive to follow His example and be a reflection of His love, compassion, and grace to those around us. By leading with humility, integrity, and kindness, we can inspire others to follow in the footsteps of our Savior and live a life pleasing to God.
Woaw, even God praised Abraham for his quality leadership…
Hmmm help me Lord to live an exemplary life with quality leadership that would bring more people to you 🇨🇾🇨🇾🇨🇾🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Thank you Lord Jesus for the grace and understanding in knowing that I need to prioritize being an exemplary leader. And by doing so, I create a sense of shared purpose and motivate your team for success hence making my team better 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🇨🇾🇨🇾🇨🇾🇨🇾🇨🇾
Leading by example. Despite your level in life, there are people that secretly wanna be like you. There are people who see you as a role model. So living your life anyhow can be disastrous consequences for those who are trying to emulate you.
Lead in the right way,in the way that pleases God. Just like our father Abraham.
Thank you Lord for today’s devotional 🙏

The best way to lead is to lead by example. The success and prosperity of any institution is tied down to the quality of leadership it possesses
‘Leadership is an important bedrock of any institution. Whether it be a family, business organization or nation, the prosperity of an institution is tied to the quality of leadership it possesses’. As a leader the way you live reflect on your followers, so live your life in a GODLY, positive and loving manner. Living a life of disappointment discourages people who see you as a role model. Lord help me to live a life that is pleasing to you and everyone around me🙏

Our Saviour Jesus Christ, led by example. Apostle Paul said we should follow him he follows Christ. He also led by example, as well as many others in the scripture. My Prophet, Isaiah Mac Wealth also leads by example. Leading by example must be our lifestyle in these last days. My life must show that I do what I say whether it’s in preaching the gospel, or in living my daily life. We are the living epistles.
Thank you my Prophet sir.

Little wonder Apostle Paul said follow me as I follow Christ. I now see the difference between a leader, a ruler, and a politician.
As a leader ! You need to live and behave the way you want your followers to copy ! Most followers look up to their Leaders and copy their way of life!

This is an amazing topic, I have realise that it’s not only about carrying the tag of a leader but you must also aspire to be leader that everyone under will want to emulate.
It’s also important to know that not everyone can easily be changed as the person you want them to be,that’s why patience is important to consider while being a leader.
Thank you my prophet for this life balance diet you giving us everyday and am so blessed sir.

People tend to follow those who they know have the capacity to lead them and this can only be ascertained when they see how the life of the person is. Our lives draw or push back people to and from us.
The fastest way to create a sense of shared purpose and motivate your team for success is living an exemplary life.
I live by example and I receive grace to lead the good example.
Thank you My Prophet.
Thank you once again Prophet for this very practical word.
From my observation, organisations that lasts generation are ones that have a well defined and cultivated culture.
Little wonder there is reference to Abraham, who skillfully and by example was able to ensure the blessings did not just go Isaac but subsequent generations.
We see for example how Isaac and Jacob cultivated the habit of building altars, something they evidently learnt from Abraham.
Similarly, I have learnt not to just be a talker but instil in those that God has given me authority over the right virtues by manifestly practicing before them.
Thank you my prophet Sir for helping me lead by example David ikechukwu Lagos Nigeria
When we lead by examples, we set the tone for the people we lead

I’m amazed….learning so much from our prophet

Father give me a sound mind to go with the gospel into my generation
Merci Prophète de Dieu pour cet enseignement. Effectivement, le vrai leader est celui qui montre l’exemple. L’apôtre Paul pouvait dire de l’imiter comme il imite Christ. Une manière de nous dire qu’il est un bon exemple en tant que leader et que nous devons le suivre en l’imitant. Quelles que soient les positions d’élévation que nous occupons, nous devons comprendre que c’est notre manière de faire qui influence les autres à faire de même et que en changeant, les autres aussi changeront progressivement. Que Dieu nous accorde la grâce d’être de bon leader pour sa grâce.
