Removing Filters
The character of the leader becomes the spirit of the people. I'm so thankful that God doesn't appoint leadership as man does. It's human nature to promote appearance before character and aspiring leaders are aware of this human flaw. A filtered image, the creation of the B.B.D. (Bigger Better Deal) only leads to poisoning the people.
Let Naaman's story construct our foundation for this plan. Naaman was filtered before Snapchat and Instagram. Here's a warrior and captain of the Syrian army who was highly regarded and respected. He had it all, or it appeared so to his followers whose value was placed on outside appearance such as Naaman's title, "captain of the army," and his prestige - all his medals, his servants, his house, and chariots. Yet those closest to him knew the image was hurting him more than helping - it was a mixture of pride and rejection that needed a solution.
Naaman was a leper, and in the old testament leprosy represented a reflection of sin and the results of sin upon man and upon his relationship with God. A priest was to look at the leper, separate and isolate the leper from the community, and wherever the leper went, the leper was to cry out "unclean, unclean."
What if, as a leader in your church or in the marketplace, your filter was stripped and you had to cry out who you really were all day? "Prideful, prideful," "racist, racist," "double minded, double minded," "bitter, bitter," "rebellious, rebellious."
Filters do not last long, and to be transformational millennial kingdom leaders, we'll have to take inventory of our hearts, so our attitude doesn't become infectious and poisonous.

About this Plan
A millennial kingdom leader has a well-outlined vision, the ability to communicate the vision and the anointing to leverage vision to transform lives. In today's culture, the idea of leadership has been distorted by social popularity, where the filter of image gains followers ' so ignore them. They are blind guides leading the blind, and if one blind person guides another, they will both fall into a ditch. ' Matthew 15:14. In this eight day devotional we'll learn that the core of a leader influences the spirit of the people, we'll outline biblical qualifications for a leader, identify leadership characteristics that are displayed throughout the Bible, and prepare the next generation of leaders. A leader's main objective is to reproduce more leaders whether in the church or in the marketplace. To be effective in your role as leader, you have to bear fruit - that process starts from within.
