Transitioning Of Leadership Is Inevitable.

Pastor Myles Munroe spoke extensively about a new generation of up-and-coming leaders
just before his passing. In his statement, he mentioned how many would die, and in some
cases, their deaths will be unexplainable. Again, this will all be a part of the transition of
ushering in God's new leaders.

I was convinced a long time ago that the generation of which Dr. Myles Munroe speaks
currently exists among us. However, they've been suppressed and oppressed by those who
refuse to accept that their time and purpose in leadership positions are DONE. It's time to
step aside gracefully as God presents his new set of non-compromising leaders!

Scripture says the following in regards to this understanding, "And he changeth the times
and the seasons: he removes kings, and set up kings: he gives wisdom unto the wise, and
knowledge to them that know understanding" Daniel 2:21.

I am also convinced that this statement and understanding are not limited to the religious
organization but all life areas. I have witnessed some of the transitions already, and I am
confident more is on the way. Some churches, businesses, and even families will not grow,
advance or specific curses and backwardness will not be removed until some folks are
moved out of the way. The reality is their archaic way of thinking and leading has frustrated
and delayed God's will for many. In other words, many who are subject to them should have
been much further than they currently are.

Based on the apparent changing of the times, coupled with the audacity to stand against the
establishment. I see myself as one of those emerging leaders of which Dr. Munroe spoke
about being a part of the new leadership generation. Many like myself are relentless in
seeing the consistent demonstration of the manifested power of God in action. We are done
with the traditions, culture, nursery rhymes, seed sowing exercises that have panned out
ZERO results over the years for the parishioners but excellent returns for those that lead
them. Whoever you are that may be reading this post, and you feel that you are among the
new emerging leaders that will come forth. The Lord has likened you to Joseph, the son of
Jacob who, even though he was hurled into slavery, hated by his brothers, falsely accused
of rape, imprisoned, etc. Joseph had no idea that it was during these challenges of hardship
and oppression, especially by those he loved the most. He was being conditioned for the
new order of leadership that he unknowingly would be catapulted to! Like Caleb and
Joshua, these new leaders will have a DIFFERENT SPIRIT!
Trust me when I say to you, they can only keep their foot on you for so long, in fact, just as
long as God Almighty has assigned them to. Nevertheless, the day is quickly approaching
where you will be catapult and advanced to where you were destined to be before the
foundation of the world. God has called you to lead, and if you observe your hardship,
troubles, and the way folks treated you, it was God's way of conditioning you for leadership
and, in most cases showing you via the behavior of your oppressors, WHAT NOT TO BE
LIKE WHEN IT IS YOUR TIME TO SHINE AND LEAD!

Your most important lesson during your conditioning for your transition, my friend, is to
always be conscious of the glaring facts about when your purpose is up and when it is time
to step aside and pass the baton to the next generation leaders. In other words, do not die
with the baton in your hand that you should have passed on a long time ago!

In the coming months, we will see the emerging of more new leaders despite those who try
to hold on to what has already expired for them........
