Using Talents to Strengthen Relationships, Not Just Personal Success as Men

True leadership in the Kingdom isn’t about position—it’s about posture. A man of Godly value leads by serving. He uses his gifts to lift others, not to climb above them.

Jesus said in Matthew 20:26, “Whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant.” That’s not weakness; that’s strength under control. Your leadership is proven not by how many follow you, but by how many become better because of you.

When you use your talents only for personal advancement, your influence becomes shallow. But when you use them to strengthen relationships—teaching, guiding, building, supporting—you create a legacy that outlives applause. The husband who leads with humility, the mentor who listens more than he speaks, the pastor who serves his flock instead of ruling over them—those are men who reflect Christ.

Service refines authority. It softens pride and anchors purpose in love. The more you grow in leadership, the more you should stoop to wash feet. Because in the Kingdom, greatness doesn’t rise—it bows.

Use your gift to build people, not platforms. When men see your heart before your skill, they will follow not because of your voice, but because of your example.

BECOME AN INTENTIONAL MAN.

You were born a male but becoming a man is factor of a deliberate effort you must make daily through the strength of Christ.  To become the kind of man God has ordained you to become, you must understand the specific plan God ORDAINED for you. This can be done when you pay attention to God's personal dealing with you via His Word. Your first responsibility is to dwell in the presence of God. Your second responsibility is to submit to the instructions of the Father. Your third responsibility is to discover your dream (your calling or purpose or life assignment). Your third responsibility is to be intentional and diligent in your dream and produce result/solution. After all the above is in place, that's when you can think of dating/marriage.  These are not my words but how God dealt with Adam in the book of Genesis 2, before He presented a Woman to Him. So, if you think being a man is about chasing women and money. You are abusing yourself.  According to God's standard, the...

EMBRACE YOUR AUTHORITY

Dear Men of Godly Value, In the tapestry of life, you stand as pillars, either as fathers and husbands or as those destined for these sacred roles. Your strength lies not just in muscle and might, but in the clarity of your direction, forged by purpose and calling in Christ. Each step you take, every decision you make, contributes to the legacy you're building. As you navigate the complexities of life, remember the profound impact of fighting the good fight of faith. It is in this struggle that you find not only strength but also the unwavering clarity of your calling. Your authority as a male figure isn't rooted in dominance but in your commitment to divine purpose. Leading your generation, guiding your wife or lover, and nurturing your family all hinge on the authenticity of your connection with your calling. Without this alignment, the compass of your leadership may falter. So, embrace the journey, seek that constant clarity, and let the light of your faith illuminate your p...

THE NATURE OF A MAN'S VISION

Brothers, it is important for you to understand that the strenhth of your life dwells in the strength of your vision. Vision is the mental picture of the problems God has wired you to solve in the future through your purpose, calling or capacity. There is a healthy vision and unhealthy vision. A healthy vision is the type that is caught through the inspiration of God's Word in your heart. Unhealthy vision is the type that is feeds humans ego and pride. As a man, it is important for you to have a defined vision that is cultivated from God's Word. If you don't have a vision, you won't be able to feature in the future. As a man, where are you heading to in life, and what's dictating your direction in life? Is it God's personal dealings with you or human logic? Catching a vision starts with your self discovery, through the knowledge of God's Word. What do you see in the next five to twelve years from now? Whose problem are you hungry to solve? Whose pain do you ...
