Apostle Linda from South Africa serves as a living example of a church leader mentored by Christ. To lead effectively, African church leaders should cultivate the following distinguishing traits:
Apostle Linda Gobodo
- "You will see them by their fruits, the pure at heart and contrite in spirit will ascend the mountain of the Lord."
Psalm 24:3-4 – “Who may ascend into the hill of the Lord? Or who may stand in His holy place? He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who has not lifted up his soul to an idol, Nor sworn deceitfully.” - "You will recognize them by holiness."
Leviticus 19:1-2 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 2 “Speak to all the congregation of the children of Israel, and say to them: ‘You shall be holy, for I the Lord your God am holy.”
Hebrews 12:14 – “Pursue peace with all people, and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord.” - Obedience, which is better than sacrifice.
Matthew 12:48-50 – “But He answered and said to the one who told Him, “Who is My mother and who are My brothers?” And He stretched out His hand toward His disciples and said, “Here are My mother and My brothers! For whoever does the will of My Father in heaven is My brother and sister and mother.” - Love; for God and His people
- Being oaks of righteousness and loving justice, so that He may be glorified in us
- Mercy and truth; these two are the ways of the Lord.
Isaiah 2:3 – “Many people shall come and say, “Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, To the house of the God of Jacob; He will teach us His ways, and we shall walk in His paths.”
Jesus told us the rock on which He set up His Church, but we have taken it in our hands to set up the church.
People are not taught the ways of the Lord but the acts of the Lord.
Proverbs 3:3 “Let not mercy and truth forsake you; Bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart”
We need to steward what God has given us. - Selflessness, loving our neighbors
- Humility
- Forgiveness - we have to walk in love and forgiveness and forgive those who trespass against us. If we do not forgive, our Father in heaven will also not forgive us
- Integrity - your yes must be yes, and your no must be no
- We must grow fruit that remains.
Matthew 5-7 - Love, Power, and Authority: Embracing the Mandate
Leaders mentored by Christ understand that they are called to establish a relationship with God's people rather than just founding a religious movement. They are empowered with love, power, and authority to disciple nations and serve God.
Recognizable by Their Fruits: Holiness, Obedience, and Love
Mentored leaders will be characterized by their fruits—pure hearts, holiness, obedience, and love for both God and people.
Integrity and Forgiveness
Leaders mentored by Christ prioritize integrity and forgiveness, living out the principles taught in the Scriptures.
