How ‘BELIEVING’ Puts You In The Top 20% Of Today's Leaders.


Listen Later

As a church we have cast fresh, clear and compelling vision about our next season. 2022 is a year for us to BELIEVE again, BELIEVE that Jesus builds His church, BELIEVE that we are BETTER TOGETHER, BELIEVE that we are called to something great, believe that the God does work all things together for GOOD and that the best really is yet to come…..BELIEVE that we will INHERIT God’s promises!

Do we BELIEVE this? As leaders, we must lead with this level of faith, belief and expectation….because, people will not lift their level of faith and belief above that of their leaders….if the people we lead have bigger faith and a larger level of expectation than us, then they will simply find bigger people to lead them.


The story of the exodus of the people of Israel from Egypt has been a guiding leadership light for us as we have transitioned from lockdown to freedom…and today this story is teaching us a powerful lesson about how to lead into our vision to BELIEVE in 2022.


Today, let’s look at how the Israelite leaders, led their people into the promise that God had in front of them…..Just like God is calling us to lead people into the promises that He has for them in 2022.


Read Numbers 13-14.

Out of the 12 LEADERS Moses sent to do reconnaissance on the promise…..only 2 of the 12 of them came back with a good report. In fact, the report given by the 10 other leaders were answering questions Moses never asked. 


Q: How do we be in the top 20% of leaders. A: It is all about WHAT WE BELIEVE.

A different SPIRIT knows what to BELIEVE…. What You Believe About God, What You Believe About You, What You Believe About Others 

  1. What Do You Believe About God?

Numbers 13:1 MSG

“Send men to scout out the country of Canaan that I am giving to the People of Israel.


God has already promised the people that he would GIVE them their destiny. God even calls it the PROMISED land.

If the people of God BELIEVED that their God was who He said He was and that He would do what He said He would do….then they would not have missed out God’d promise! 


  1. What Do You Believe About You?

Numbers 13:30 MSG

Caleb interrupted, called for silence before Moses and said, “Let’s go up and take the land—now. We can do it.”

  1. What Do You Believe About Others? 

Numbers 14:6-9 MSG

Joshua son of Nun and Caleb son of Jephunneh, members of the scouting party, ripped their clothes and addressed the assembled People of Israel: “The land we walked through and scouted out is a very good land—very good indeed. If God is pleased with us, he will lead us into that land, a land that flows, as they say, with milk and honey. And he’ll give it to us. Just don’t rebel against God! And don’t be afraid of those people. Why, we’ll have them for lunch! They have no protection and God is on our side. Don’t be afraid of them!”

  • What do you believe about those who lead you? 

  • What do you believe about those you lead? 

  • What do you believe about those you are yet to lead OR the people you are trying to REACH?
