A devotional reflection on godly leadership in the church.
Topical
Church leadership is shepherding God’s people with humility. Scripture teaches that leaders must serve willingly, teach faithfully, and model Christlike character.
Feed the flock of God. (1 Peter 5:2)
Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour. (1 Timothy 5:17)
Obey them that have the rule over you. (Hebrews 13:17)
Christian Application
Church leadership encourages believers that God provides shepherds to guide, protect, and equip His people. Pray for your leaders, support them, and follow their godly example.
Sample Prayer
Lord, strengthen our leaders and help them shepherd with wisdom and grace. Amen.
