You are THAT leader!

Leading with ‘Bold Belief’


Q: What have you appreciated about the leadership you have either observed or been directly impacted by during this COVID season?


Luke 5:18-20 MSG

“Some men arrived carrying a paraplegic on a stretcher. They were looking for a way to get into the house and set him before Jesus. When they couldn’t find a way in because of the crowd, they went up on the roof, removed some tiles, and let him down in the middle of everyone, right in front of Jesus. Impressed by their bold belief (demonstration of their faith), he said, “Friend, I forgive your sins.””


In this story Jesus was moved by bold belief!


There are leaders you admire, and then there is your leadership.

Well, I need you to start seeing yourself as THAT leader.


Jesus wants to bring a miracle to bear in your world this week and all he is looking for us a little bit of BOLD belief.


3 things I want us to do this week as we lead as THAT leader...


1. Believe Boldly For Yourself


What are you believing for in 2020?




Stepping back from our problems and our challenges steps us closer toward the perspective God has of our lives....


The lame mans friends had to re assess their position, adjust their perspective and approach their obstacle in a new and creative...maybe God is showing us that if we can get above our current disappointment / discouragement / we might just see the opportunity for a miracle that is waiting for us...


After all,...

God...saw you at the beginning and he sees you at the END and he knows how it all turns out for you!! ..


Philippians 1:6 TPT

“I pray with great faith for you, because I’m fully convinced that the One who began this glorious work in you will faithfully continue the process of maturing you and will put his finishing touches to it until the unveiling of our Lord Jesus Christ!”


What could you be believing BOLDLY for in your life this week?


2. Believe Boldly For Others

It was the bold belief of a friend FOR a friend....that moved Jesus to release his power, perform a miracle and set a man free..:.


Do we have that kind of belief for our team? Not just belief IN them...sometimes we need to believe FOR them!


Sometimes others don’t see for themselves the potential that God has on their lives.


You have been positioned to bring bold belief into the lives of those you are leading!


Don’t be moved by the crowd...be the leader that moves the crowd ... be the leader that doesn’t take no for an answer ... be the leader that climbs the house, removes the tiles and makes a way...for your team to STEP INTO THIER OWN miracle!


Q: how will I know if I’m being THAT leader that is calling someone into the opportunity GOD has for them and you see for them?

  • it should cost you something
  • It should challenge your faith
  • It should cost them something
  • It should challenge their faith


If, as leaders, we are not in this constant state of tension between what IS and what could be for people, we are not leading...we are staying in our safe place and we doing a total disservice to those people who are hungry to grow and serve and become all that God has called the to.



Q: What should we do when people struggle to step into the God call in their lives? What do we do when people seem to draw back and go through their own seasons of unbelief (in themselves)?


A: How to deal with push back. Increase relationship, ask questions and listen. Remember it is always people before programs. We do what we do to build teams and grow people not build things and grow stuff.


3. Believe Boldly For Miracles

Let’s not forget who we are, what we believe, what we’ve seen God do and what He is still doing in us, in others, and in His Church.


  • this season alone has proven extraordinary in so many ways.!
  • Miracles of ... salvations, team leadership, team membership, new life groups, financial security and favour.


I have never been more excited about the future of THE church and I know OUR church will play a key role in pioneering some of these new paradigms.BUT I also know that what is on my heart for our church and THE church will only become a reality when we are willing to be THAT leader!!
