- 'Have confidence in your leaders and submit to their authority.' Hebrews 13:17 NIV
- Those in church leadership have a pretty challenging job. To lead a church, full of different personalities, different thoughts and different ideas, can be tricky. This is what their job entails: keeping unity, building up people's faith, encouraging, caring, discipling and evangelising. Our church leaders have to juggle many things. And they make mistakes. They're human, just like the rest of us.
As part of the church, it's our job to pray that our leaders serve in a way that brings glory to God. But appreciating our church leaders is more than praying for them. It's also treating them, and speaking of them, with love. The Bible says: 'Honour those who are your leaders in the Lord's work. They work hard among you and give you spiritual guidance' (1 Thessalonians 5:12 NLT).
When we don't get anything from their sermon, or don't think they handled something well, let's encourage our leaders rather than speaking negatively to, and about, them. We need to remember that we're not going to agree with our leaders all the time. But God's put them in that position and we should respect that. While there are some issues that may be too big to ignore, there will always be smaller issues that we'll disagree on. And in those times, it's vital that we keep a good attitude and react with integrity and respect to those who lead us.
So what now? Send some words of encouragement to your church leader today and remind them that you're praying for them.
