Every Leader Needs an “Inner Circle”

The Lord said to Moses: “See, I have made you as God to Pharaoh, and Aaron your brother shall be your prophet. You shall speak all that I command you. And Aaron your brother shall tell Pharaoh to send the children of Israel out of his land. Exodus 7:1-2 Who wouldn’t tremble at receiving a mission like the one given Moses? He quaked at the daunting task before him, and so would we. Such a challenge would require every ounce of courage we could possibly muster. From the very beginning, Moses’ feeling of inadequacy prompted him to build an “inner circle” of close supporters. People he could trust and who had skills complimentary to his own. His brother Aaron quickly became a critical member of his team, and over time Moses assembled a unit that both shared his vision and complimented his weaknesses. Through the years Moses added to this inner circle, each time including individuals who possessed different gifts but the same vision as he. How about you? Who sits in your inner circle? Do they share your vision? Do they have complimentary gifts, useful where you need them most – or does that idea threaten you? Find yourself some Aarons, Jethros, and Joshuas, or you won’t be able to accomplish all that God has for you to accomplish. I’d love to talk to you personally.
