Spiritual Leadership 101
This psalm was likely written early in the rule of king David. “when will you come to me” v2 alludes to the fact that the Ark of God has not yet been returned to Jerusalem.
In this psalm, David spells out the essentials of spiritual leadership:
(i) Devotion to God, v1-2: Here we see David longing for the Presence (Ark) of the Lord.
(ii) Discernment of evil & those who are blameless, v3-7. In fact, David chooses to associate with those whose walk is right.
David hangs out with the faithful & blameless. Those who are perverse, arrogant & deceiving, he cuts them off from his leadership team, even his city.
Application:
Leadership is influence. Besides you influencing the rest of the pre-believing friends & family around you, we need to be aware too of what influences us. Are you exposed to good or negative influences in your school or office? Cut off the negative influence today.
