Jesus Christ, the ultimate Kingdom influencer, engaged with stakeholders and demonstrated divine wisdom in leadership. Align yourself with His principles—study, grow, and walk in divine approval’
in another post he wrote: still.addrssing shareholders in the market place, ‘True leadership goes beyond success—it mirrors the example of Jesus Christ. His influence remains unmatched, not because He authored books, but because His words and actions continue to shape generations.
To lead with impact, study His life. Just as Jesus knew His purpose, understanding yours is key to thriving in the marketplace. Follow His principles, and your influence will transcend time.’
Another snippet from the message reads, ‘Become a marketplace apostle by equipping yourself with knowledge and excellence. The Bible instructs us to “study to show ourselves approved.” (2 Timothy 2:15
‘Invest in self-development, read widely, learn from great minds, and refine your skills. As Ecclesiastes 10:10 reminds us, “If the ax is dull and its edge unsharpened, more strength is needed, but skill will bring success.”
Sharpen your wisdom, master your craft, and lead with excellence in your field!’
