Be a Good Follower First But David said to Abishai, Do not - TopicsExpress



          

Be a Good Follower First But David said to Abishai, Do not destroy him; for who can stretch out his hand against the Lords anointed, and be guiltless? 1 Samuel 26:9 Leadership operates on the basis of trust. Before David became king, he showed respect for the king who preceded him. Saul failed to practice this law, and lost his kingdom. The Bible provides a vivid contrast between the leadership of Saul and David: Saul Self-conscious from the beginning Presumed the priestly office Disobeyed God in the little things Lost integrity by covering his sin Failed to submit to God-given authority Preoccupied with his own fame David Displayed God-confidence from the beginning Didnt assume any right or privilege Obeyed God in the little things Maintained integrity by respecting Saul Consistently submitted to authority Desired to increase Gods reputation Excerpt from The Maxwell Leadership Bible
