Leadership
2 Samuel 15 v 3
I’m in the Book of 2 Samuel where David takes a country the size of New Jersey and develops it into a world-class nation.

W.E.B. DuBois said and I quote “either the United States will destroy ignorance or ignorance will destroy the United States.”
The strength of a leader is seen not on the mountain top, but in the valley.
The text says in 2 Samuel chapter 15 verse 13, now a messenger came to David saying the hearts of the Men of Israel are with Absalom.

In order to be a great leader, he or she must possess all three of these qualities:
- A great leader will have perspective
- A great leader will have patience
- A great leader will have passion
A leader without perspective is like an airplane with no navigation.
A leader with no patience will destroy all those around him.
A leader with no passion will become self-centered and unwise.

Our text shows us that David’s leadership is now in a nosedive. His child is trying to take his position. His cohorts are plotting against him, and the citizens are pursuing new leadership.
As a leader, you will have struggles, be stretched, and have stress, but know this…
You can’t confess that which you won’t confront, and what you won’t confront you will never conquer.
And that’s your One Minute in the Word.
I’m not out of Word, but I am out of lines, until the next issue know this… I’m pulling for you and I’m praying for you, God Bless You, and keep reading.
