The Ideal Leadership’s Family

The first institute of God on earth is family; He brought the two people together in the Garden of Eden for a purpose, enjoyment, companionship and also for procreation. God blessed the first leaders (couple) to be fruitful, multiply, fill the earth, subdue and have dominion. Genesis 1:28

True leadership begins at home. I have studied the lives of great leaders, they are people of one wife, committed to their families and the wife also prays a major role in the ministry. For behind a successful man, there must be a good woman.

But many a promising leaders have made a shipwreck of their ministries because they neglected their homes. Some leaders wrongly believe that, there is no place for one’s spouse in the ministry. Others contend that they can carry on the ministry without the support of their spouse.

Enemies of a Successful Family

ü  Fighting and quarreling

ü  Going in direct direction

ü  Misunderstanding

ü  No true love and care

ü  Polygamy – simultaneous, progressive

ü  Bad attitude. Attitude problem is worse than demonic problem

ü  Demonic operation

Factors for Ideal Leader’s Home

I strongly believe that any family can be ideal one if he following steps are taken; there are seven LS of a leader’s home.

1)      Lord: We must constantly and anxiously build our home on the solid Rock. Except the Lord build the house Psalm 127. With Christ in the family, (happy) / 2x home

2)      Listen: Listen to each other is important so as to avoid communication gap. The man must have time for the woman in the family.

3)      Learn: Learn and study each other. Know what each other like or hate. Study your husband, if it is hot food he likes or cold one.

4)      Love: This is the glue that binds family together. Love must be practice in the home. Good words, affectionate words, gifts must be presented for reasons and for no particular reason.

5)      Live: Don’t just exist; determine to make a meaningful impact in this world. Join hands together to build your family, ministry, company together.

6)       Lead: Lead a good live in the community, let your family be a good example for others to emulate.

Laugh: Take time to play with your spouse. Don’t take life too seriously. Laugh over your challenges and see a better tomorrow. If you laugh with it, you can live with it.
