God is able
He will never fail

Raised to life our God is able

Far above all we hope

He has open arms
He will never fail us
He will never fail us

Verse 1
Purify my heart
Let me be as gold
And precious silver
Purify my heart
Let me be as gold
Pure gold

Refiner's fire
My heart's one desire
Is to be holy
Set apart for You Lord
I choose to be holy
Set apart for You my Master
Ready to do Your will

Cleanse me from within
And make me holy
Purify my heart
Cleanse me from my sin
Deep within

1 Peter 5:1-5 ESV
Goals as we look at this passage.
I. To explore the nature of pastoral ministry and church leadership
II. To explore the principle that all Christians are spiritual leaders and followers in some way.
1. WHAT a shepherd should do (v.1)
1 Peter 5:2 ESV
2. HOW a shepherd ought to shepherd (vv.2-3)
A. Not because you have to, but because you get to!
not under compulsion, but willingly, as God would have you
1 Peter 5:2-3 ESV
B. Not for what you might gain, but what you can joyfully give!
not for shameful gain, but eagerly
3 John 1:4 ESV
1 Timothy 6:6 ESV
C. Not leading by force, but by example.
not domineering over those in your charge, but being examples to the flock
Mark 10:42-44 ESV
The way of Jesus finds its power not in dominance or force, but with service and love.
3. WHY a shepherd should shepherd (v.4)
1 Peter 5:4-5 ESV
The church needs humble shepherds like never before.
This church needs humble followers like never before.
This world needs humble spiritual leaders like never before.
