Be motivated by what is yet to be. No matter what we have witnessed so far, what is yet to be is still the greatest reason for our hope.
The Scripture says hope that is seen is no longer hope. In other words, God wants us to be motivated by what is ahead, the things yet to be.
This is how to also become hope motivated leader. Hope motivated leaders have hope that GOD has not done all He wants to do.
They live in anticipation of what is yet to be. They believe that the best revival, transformation, exploits, Church growth, social redemption and manifestations of God's beauty are yet to be experienced.
Abraham and other patriarchs of faith were motivated by the substance of what they hoped for.
If they were not motivated by what is yet to be, many of them would have died unfulfilled, frustrated and devastated.
But for them, the realities of what they saw ahead motivated them to respond in faith to the realities of the moment.
They became powerful by the motivation of hope through faith.
Are you also motivated by what is yet to be?
Do you look forward with conviction that the best that God wants to do through you is yet to come?
No matter the pressures, barriers or the challenges of the present realities in your life, be motivated by what is yet to be!
Leaders who are motivated by hope have the two characteristics I want to share below.
1. They are willing to give up the present gain in order to secure the greater gain of the future.
Whatever looks like achievement or gain now is nothing compared to what God has prepared ahead for you.
Today's success can become the enemy of tomorrow's significance.
Those who are motivated by what is yet to be don't allow the success of today to rub them of the significance of tomorrow.
They are willing to sacrifice the present in order to secure the future in God.
2. They are Convinced of the Ability of God to do the Impossible
Leaders who are motivated by what is yet to be succeed because of their conviction that God is able to do the impossible.
Everything we have seen or heard that God performed through others is nothing compare to what He is still able to do.
This should be our CONCLUSION if we are ready to succeed in God. Our CONVICTION of GOD'S ability to do the IMPOSSIBLE must be unshaken.
Prayer Burden
Father, give us the conviction of Abraham in our walk with You.
