Introduction The 4 faces of leadership. Ezekiel 1:4-5;10 Revelation 4:6-7 Time – knowing what to do and when to do it. Ecc 3:1-8 Jer 1:9-10 Well rounded – having dealt with our weaknesses – Well balanced 1 Chron 12:1-2; 8; 24; 32; 33; 34; 35; 37 Our Motive 1 Chron 12:38 – To see Jesus made King Our Provision 1 Chron 12:40 – The Lord will help us & give us the provisions we need.

Lion Key – Thought – “Ruling” Church Leadership – Presbuteros – Elder (1 Pet 5:1-4; Acts 20:17; 28) Old Testament Anointing – King (Haggai 1:1; 12; 13-14) Bad Example Rehoboam 1 Kings 12:10-11 Become over bearing and difficult to follow. Good Example Jesus Mat 16:23 Get behind me… Jesus & Peter Ruling – Exercising Authority Doctrine Discipline Direction Mat 18 – Always Redemptive.

Ox Key – Thought – “Serving - Caring” Church Leadership – Poimain – Shepherd/Pastor (1 Pet 5:1-4; Acts 20:17; 28) Old Testament Anointing – Priest (Haggai 1:1; 12; 13-14) Bad Example Aaron Ex 32:21-26 Compromise to please people. Good Example Jesus Mat 20:25-28 John 13:3-9 Feet washing… Jesus & Peter Caring/Serving We lay our lives Down. We serve

Eagle Key – Thought – “Seeing” Church Leadership – Episkospos – Bishop (1 Pet 5:1-4; Acts 20:17; 28) Old Testament Anointing – Prophet (Haggai 1:1; 12; 13-14) Bad Example Balaam Num 22-25 Num 31:8; 15-16 Become weird and off the wall. Motive - money Manipulation Good Example Jesus John 21:15-19 Acts 12:2; 5-8 Peter’s death… Jesus & Peter Seeing Scoping. Seeing potential in those we lead. How do we judge Prophecy? 1.Is it biblical? 2.Who does it exalt? 3.What do you discern? 4.1 Cor 14:3-5 What is the motive? 5.Does it build up, encourage, edify? 6.Does it bring peace & comfort? 7.Does it come with a heart of submission? 1 Cor 13:9 – part of the picture. How do we handle prophetic words of others? Doctrine, Discipline & Direction words Bring them to the Elders before sharing with the person or with an Elder.

Man Key – Thought – “Death” Church Leadership – Lay our lives down for the sheep – Rom 12:1 Old Testament Anointing – Passover lamb – sacrificial animals Bad Example Motive for dying… 1 Cor 13:1-3 Good Example Jesus John 10:11;14-15 17-18 Good Shepherd Jesus & Peter Dying to self Mat 16:24-25 Mat 23:12 Rom 12:1-21 Can only experience resurrection life once we have crucified our flesh. The way we come onto team is through “ the Man or the burial anointing ”. We die to self. We serve, we follow, we lay down our small vision for the greater. Even then it can ’ t be for promotion. This leadership anointing is the key to using the other anointings for the benefit of others. If not we use the and this one for our own promotion, position and advantage.
