THE THREE TESTS OF LOYALTY

Hello once again,

As the month of May and mid-June is “Vision 527″ in my church, we have been using the book Leaders and Loyalty by Bishop Dag Heward-Mills our father. This books is a great enlightenment of leaders of all kinds to deal with loyalty in your organisation.
This Sunday 2nd June we tackled the 3 tests of loyalty, how to really tell if someone is loyal to you or not. The number test of loyalty as listed in the book is:

The Test of Distance: But it is good to be zealously affected always in a good thing, AND NOT ONLY WHEN I AM PRESENT WITH YOU. Galatians 4:18

In the scripture above Paul had to exhort a branch of his church in Galatia to remain faithful even though he was not physically present with them. Most people(friends,relatives,employees) act as though they are loyal to you but in your absence say and do all sorts of things contrary to what they say or do in your presence. Any organisation that wants to expand can only do so if they have loyal employees who won’t only work when the boss is around but even when he is not around, because the boss cannot be everywhere at the same time.

This point is for you the ready to ask yourself if you are loyal to your friends,employer or anyone. Do you only work or pretend to be working when your boss is around or you work whole heartedly even when he is not around. Do we only pretend to be good wives and husbands when our spouses are present? What do we do with others when our partners are not around.
Can you pass the test of distance? God bless you and do visit this blog again.

Vision 527:
I Thessalonians 5:27 : I charge you by the Lord that this epistle be read unto all the holy brethren. KJV
I command you in the name of the Lord to read this letter to all the brothers and sisters. NLT

The Lighthouse Chapel International has chosen May and June to read the books of our father Bishop Dag to the congregation of the Lord.

ACCEPT JESUS CHRIST AS YOUR LORD AND SAVIOUR SO YOU CAN MAKE IT TO HEAVEN
