Questions from leaders to Bruce Wilkenson in May 2010

1) Lord, why do you use me?

Ef 2:8-10, Jer 1:5, Ps 49. You exist to do great work for God


2) Lord what is the next step?
God creates a need in you so that He can meet it. Keep on seeking His face and He will come through.


3) Submission and leadership; does it make us weak?

James 3:13-18.
Be ambitious to fulfill the Lord's plan for you, NOT yours! No selfish ambition! Its to lay down your free will at His feet and to do only His will.



4) Is it more about leadership or followers?
The things that make you grow, becomes the very things that forbids you to grow. UNTIL YOU LET GO, YOU CANNOT GROW! Let go, let God! The things that worked in the past, doesn't necessary work in the current or future. Keep spending time with God to get new strategy.


5) Is the person in Gods will?

You need to partner with God to win the battle and then face the backlash (its the attack from the enemy right after you had victory for God). There is a cycle that christians go through:
a) Battle to get victory
b) Victory
c) Backlash (Eph 6:11)
d) Reward
e) New 'level' with God and the process starts again.

So you determine where the person is in God and ask God for help.



6) How to be a leader in a crisis

A) Always 1st acknowledge that there is a problem. Don't try to hide or ignore it.
B) Pray about it.
C) Communicate specifically!
D) Be committed to the truth!
E) Thank God for the opportunity and break through!



7) Do I stay and get more educated or do I go into ministry and learn as I go?

Firstly we have to remember that it is a calling, meaning God will call you to go! You need to know that this is your place. Seek His face continually! God will first reveal your identity and then your destiny. But when in doubt it is recommended to stay and get more educated in God.


8) How can I have more influence?
God doesn't call the equipped, He equip's  the called. When God calls you, He will equipe and educate you. You are ready!


9) When will the Lord open doors?

When it doesn't matter any more!!!


10) How do I get more faith in my leadership abilities?

Stop trying to believe in your abilities and start trusting in His leadership!


11) How does God look at me?
