"Forward Leaders"
My book, Forward, focuses on seven distinguishing marks for leaders. In Forward, I call for a different kind of leader to rise up—a leader that guides people to a better future. These leaders—Forward leaders—are able to lead people to go further than they would have ever gone on their own.
Forward leaders call people to rise beyond their own preferences and desires to be a part of something greater than themselves. In a day when people want to define their own truth, I challenge you to anchor your life in forward truth, but what is forward truth? It is a leadership style and lifestyle that are fastened to God’s truth. Read and meditate on these powerful words in Isaiah 40:8: “The grass withers, the flowers fade, but the word of our God remains forever.”
Additionally, Forward leaders are only distinguished from others when they are led by the Holy Spirit. Even though brilliance, discipline, and charisma are friends to a leader, it is only the presence of God that ultimately sets you apart.
The time is now for future leaders to desire Forward leadership. It is time to anchor our lives in forward truth, which is the only truth that existed in the past, the only truth that will exist in the future, even throughout eternity. Then we do this, we will not drift in our lives and leadership.
If you plan to lead in the future in any capacity, I am ready to walk with you and pray with you this week. Today, let us pray for the Holy Spirit to fall upon us and guide us this week as we contemplate how to best build our leadership skills.
“Lord, fill me and empower me today and throughout this week with the Holy Spirit. Lord, compel me to live and for your glory.”
