As a leader, one of my key responsibilities is to share the vision that the Lord has bestowed upon me with others. By doing so, I invite them to join in bearing the burdens of the people and the ministry God has entrusted to me.
I’ve come to realize that the more you share your vision, the more it expands into unexpected and exciting territories.
Conversely, if you keep it all to yourself, it’s like trying to carry a mountain on your back—unpleasant and ultimately fruitless!
Let’s face it, you can’t shoulder the responsibility God has given you all on your lonesome! God is fully aware that we need a team to help us carry those heavy burdens. That’s why He has designed a plan to surround you with people who can assist in this endeavor. But here’s the catch—before they can help you lift the load, God intends to impart His spirit to them just as He instructed Moses to gather 70 leaders to help Him share the burden of the people with Him Numbers 11:16-1716]And the Lord said to Moses, Gather for Me seventy men of the elders of Israel whom you know to be the elders of the people and officers over them; and bring them to the Tent of Meeting and let them stand there with you.
[17]And I will come down and talk with you there; and I will take of the Spirit which is upon you and will put It upon them; and they shall bear the burden of the people with you, so that you may not have to bear it yourself alone.
