As the election days draw near (Part 2)

FAUCHIA CLAASSEN WRITES:Even though the specific ages of Jesus Christ' followers are not stated in the Bible, if the followers of Christ followed the prescribed Jewish pattern of educational path, it is likely that the disciples were all between the ages of 13 and 30, and most of them, would have still been in their teens, when Christ was crucified, risen, and ascended. Thus, the whole New Testament foundation was built by young men, including Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone, in whom the whole building, being fitted together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord, in whom you also are being built together for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit.Although Christ is the best example, there are exceptions. At the age of 33, Christ passed the baton; he had no need of rivalry, control, insecurity, offenses, etc. Christ finished admirably, even though He did so at a young age. Therefore, it is the responsibility of leadership to discern and recognize the times and seasons, when to train, equip, bless, release, and pass the baton.Leaders ought to be able to determine when to pass the reins; else, they risk undermining God's plan and destiny for a company, a church, a ministry or a nation. The nation of Israel would have perished in the desert, if Moses did not pass the baton and if he had not recognized & discern God's word, the necessary spiritual season, and the transition that needed to occur without him. Leaders have an obligation to complete their race and hand the baton to the following runner. The race of a company, the race of the church, the race of a nation does not necessarily end, when the race of the leader concludes. It is insignificant to dwell on whose age, knowledge or experience exceed the other, instead, it is much more significant to build a lasting legacy.UNIQUEEvery organization, church, ministry, and nation is unique, thus there is no one size fits all solution. An organization, church, and nation suffer greatly when the baton is passed on too soon, too late, or never at all.These situations also breed immense damage and enmity. Leaders should prayerfully, carefully consider and discern when it is appropriate to hand over the reins to the appropriate individual, walking with them to support and mentor them along the way. Leaders are to construct a platform beneath their spiritual sons and daughters, in order to catapult them into a deeper and higher level than they have ever been. A great leader inspires people to transform, unlocking their potential to become exceptional/extraordinary. – The End* Rubrieke, meningstukke, briewe en SMS’e deur lesers en meningvormers weerspieël nie noodwendig die siening van Republikein of Namibia Media Holdings (NMH) nie.
