The Thoughts and Motives of a Man

A Leadership Insight from Vision Multiplier International https://visionmultiplierllc.wordpress.com/

I was reflecting this morning on this scripture and the thought of how it is vital for us as leaders to learn how to have successful interactions/ relationships with others.

Relationship building with others requires us to use the spirit of discernment because the behaviors we may be observing with our eyes may be a distraction from the real drivers and motivators for the individual – what’s in their heart.

Scripture tells us: “If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.“

Romans 12:18 KJV

We may find that underneath the observed present behaviors is often a person who is hurting and searching for answers or are preoccupied with their issues and concerns. They may simply need us, as the leader, to hear and recognize their pain, to discern their need and to pray either with them or for them to intercede on their behalf for gods favor and peace to rest in them. We have the solution that everyone needs and that is Jesus.

There is no problem, ailment or situation that Jesus can’t resolve. We, his followers, have to be led by the spirit to discern the problem and to speak life into the persons situation. Amen.

Be Blessed!

Be a Blessing!

”For what person knows the thoughts and motives of a man except the man’s spirit within him?

So also no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God.

Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the [Holy] Spirit who is from God, so that we may know and understand the [wonderful] things freely given to us by God.

We also speak of these things, not in words taught or supplied by human wisdom, but in those taught by the Spirit, combining and interpreting spiritual thoughts with spiritual words [for those being guided by the Holy Spirit].“
