Motivation…

I’ve been really interested in leadership this year…

At work we’re reorganizing our team and endeavouring to encourage all of us to fulfill our potential – to grow basically and be better versions of ourselves (not my quote, I’m just borrowing it)…

I’ve been watching various YouTube videos on leadership and one speaker I came across was Simon Sinek…

I’m not endorsing Simon Sinek as a person but he does have some good things to say…

One of his illustrations is called the golden circle (I’ve included an image below to save you Googling this)…

I’ve encouraged our team at work to work through this as a team…

As an individual I see the Lord’s wisdom in this – Simon has just uncovered something which the Lord has established and explained it really well and clearly…

So I’ve called this blog, ‘Motivation’ because I believe for myself it was about time that I put my own personal, ‘why?’, ‘how?’ & ‘what?’ statement out there – for myself to see but also for everyone else to see…

‘Why’?

Why do I exist?  What is my reason for living?  What is my purpose?  To know Christ…

I want to know Jesus…

‘How?’

How do I achieve this?  How do I realize what I want to achieve out of life?  Through having Jesus live through me…

I submit to Him living through me…

As He lives through me I see Him, I get to know Him…

‘What?’

What specifically is it that He wants me to achieve in my remaining time on earth?  What is going to happen as He lives through me to enable me to know Him?  That is my call…

I’ve explained this in a nut shell here

There are further specifics which He’s been telling me about but I’m not going to share those now…

To consciously think through these issues is very helpful…

What we consciously set ourselves as goals we find ourselves naturally calculating our actions to achieve…

Lord, I ask that each of us who know You would have our own session with You on this at the time of Your choosing to curb our actions into line with Your will for our lives…

Let Your Blood cover us all…

Thank You,

Andrew

About andrew james horton

Hi, my name is Andrew James Horton... I am a Kiwi (New Zealander), born in Christchurch (05 September 1971), now in my early fifties... I am blessed to be married with five children and six grandchildren... :-) I am at present a Principal Structural Engineer, Director living in Christchurch, New Zealand... I am passionate about prophetic intercession and about revival both in New Zealand and throughout the world... I am passionate to pray that the Church, the Body of Christ, the Bride of Christ, will be all that He - the Lord Jesus Christ - desires her to be in our generation... Back in early September 2010 I felt that the Lord gave me the name of this blog site, "a house of prayer for the nations - prophetic intercession for worldwide revival" and wanted me to "put it out there" and start recording the prayers which were on my heart to pray in the hope that others would also be encouraged to share the prayers which were on their hearts to pray and that in the unity of the Spirit we could participate together in this activity in different locations around the world as He led us... If the Lord leads you, let's join together in prayer for the Lord's will to be done on earth as it is in heaven in our generation... Love to All, Andrew
