Can You See?

And the Lord said unto Abram, after that Lot was separated from him, Lift up now thine eyes, and look from the place where thou art northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward:  For all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed for ever. Genesis 13:14‭-‬15 KJV

Have you ever been anywhere you needed to leave? Or started business ventures that needed to cease?

What about failures? Have things always worked for you? Has every deal turned gold? Or were there a few that never made it to the table?

Like Abram, leaders have to know “when to hold ‘em & when to fold ‘em”. We have to know when to leave situations that no longer measure up to the leadership levels we have established for ourselves or the people we lead.

I remember a time when I was called to leave my familiar. It was 14 years ago when I took the plunge and relocated to the DMV. Looking back it was one of the hardest decisions of my life. I didn’t have all the answers. Heck, I barely had a job. But one thing was certain, I knew I couldn't stay in the city anymore. And I was not going to be shown what was ahead until I made a quality decision to move forward.

Leaders what are you refusing to leave behind? What about your leadership model do you need to let go? Where are you being called to that's ahead? Who is being called to go with you? Who is being called to stay behind?

Do you know what happened after Abram left his familiar? The city where Lot stayed had to be evacuated & burned. Yup, Abram was unaware but he was leaving behind a bad situation that was going to get worse. There was no way Abram could turn back. He could only look forward.

What about you? Are you willing to stay in a city that’s about to be burned?

Leaders make no mistake about it, you are being called forward! Everything you see will be given. Everything you see will be yours.

This is not a season to get caught up. This is a season to come up!

Leaders lift up your eyes from where you are!  

Now…..See!
