TheLionWithin.Us: How to Embrace Spiritual Leadership

DAY 5 OF 6

Spiritual Mentors

Mentors are important in all walks of life.

Spiritually speaking, finding a mentor can be the best step you can take to grow as a spiritual leader of your family. 1 Peter 5 tells how elders have so much wisdom to share and it behooves us to seek out that counsel to grow in our walk. So, how do you find spiritual mentors?

You first need to know what to look for in a man before you ask them to speak into your life. What you need to be looking for is the fruit of their life. Do they treat others and walk in a way that showcases love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control? That should be prevalent in everything they do.

Once you feel they would be a solid mentor, have the courage to ask him to speak into your life. This can be intimidating. If you have selected the right man, they will treat such a request with kindness and humility. If they say, “I’m not sure if I’m qualified,” that’s a good indicator you are on the right path!

Once found, a spiritual mentor is someone you can go to on a regular schedule or as needed for guidance with your walk. It could be weekly or as infrequent as quarterly. The main thing is that you have a direct line to a man of God that is willing to take the time and speak into your life. Take this step as of absolute importance and seek out a spiritual mentor to help you grow.

Question to Consider

  1. What characteristics do you look for in a spiritual mentor?
  2. How visible is your fruit if others wanted to seek you out as their mentor?
  3. What actions will you commit to today to be the leader God intends you to be?
