God Is A Chosen By God

It is heavily concerned with the nature of leaders’ behavior and how virtuous they are. A perspective on ethical leadership known as servant leadership emphasizes that leaders should be concerned with their followers understand them; they should take care of them. There is a three-step process to servant leadership: heart check, head check, and hand check. Simba definitely goes through these three steps as he is thinking about what he should do. Heart check is defined by questions such as: Am I called to leadership, rather than driven to it?, Is my main objective to be helpful or in control?, Do I have the best interest of those I lead at heart or am ‘I’ my primary concern?, Will I gain satisfaction in watching the growth and development of those I lead? Clearly, Simba knew he was called to be king, and he felt it was his duty to help those within his kingdom. He wanted nothing more than to watch Pride Rock grow and transform back into the beautiful and harmonious place it was before Scar was in control. On the other hand, it was clear that Scar took an unethical approach to becoming king. His only concern was himself and obtaining control because he felt like he was owed power. Head check is defined by purpose, values, image, and goals. Simba realized his fundamental reason for existence was to take over his father’s place when he died. His values, at first, were not aligned with his purpose, but after thinking he realized he needed to challenge Scar

This is the core reason that he ordered all male children under the age of 2 to be slaughtered. This characterization is biblically accurate. The characterization of Miriam, Moses’ sister, is accurate as well. Miriam stayed near the river to keep watch over the basket that held her baby brother both in the Bible story and in the movie. In both stories, it is she who speaks up and offers to find a nurse for the baby. This was a clever way for Moses’ mother to speak truth over him as he grew before he went to live with the royal family.

Favored Joseph and put him in charge for the sake of being on god’s good side

Moses was the one to continuing approaching a burning bush, and listened to it talk. Despite listening to an inanimate object prophesize to him, Moses knew that the message was whole and pure and instantly believed that this destiny would lead the Israelites to justice (Exodus 3:17). Throughout the rest of his journey, Moses and God shared a similar definition of justice, which is an important reason why they were so successful with their plan. Since God made His plan for Moses and the Israelites so clear, Moses had no choice but to accept God’s perspective and began to trust that His justice was exactly what was needed. It was that simple for him.

Joseph represents faith as many of the characters do in the Bible. God blessed Joseph with the capacity to excel in every situation. God gave Joseph intelligence and an ability to interpret dreams. All of these blessings were given to Joseph in order for him to save his family from the seven years of famine. The story of Joseph shows how the will of God is done through people and events. The reason the story of Joseph is so significant is because these events lead up to the Hebrew people settling in Goshen. Goshen is where the Israelites reside centuries later where they are oppressed and become slaves of the state. Joseph sets the stage for Moses. Moses rescues the firstborn of God, the Israelites. Moses also provides mankind with the commandments giving people their first laws literally set in

In the Exodus, the second book of the Bible, we are told the story of how God through Moses freed the Israelites from oppression in Egypt. Moses was born to an Israelite mother during a time when the Pharaoh who was fearful of the size and strength of the Israelite people, decreed that all Israelite male babies should be thrown into the Nile River. Moses’ mother trying to save her son placed him a basket in the reeds in the river, where he was found by the Pharaoh’s daughter who raised him as her own. When Moses was all grown up, he saw the witnessed the suffering of his people, the Israelites which eventually lead to him killing an Egyptian soldier whom he saw whipping an Israelite slave. He fled to Midian where he made a life for himself. Then the Pharaoh died, and the new Pharaoh made the lives of the Israelites more difficult. They cried out to God for help, and God hearing their cries remembered his covenant with Abraham, and chose Moses to led the Israelites out of Egypt. The God of Exodus is not comparable to the God we are often told of because the God we are told of is full of love and light, whereas the God of Exodus is not merciful and all-loving, is rather painted as an entity of wickedness. I do not see him as a hero because he allows and encourages acts of evil which includes the killing of Egyptian babies, and he is manipulative and excessively prideful.

leadership is something we all use in our everyday lives. we need to remember to be like moses in vayakhel: inclusive of everyone and polite, which are traits some of our presidential candidates could benefit from

The key episodes that established leadership among Israel are the accounts of their tribulations while in the wilderness and God’s responses. Starting in Number Chapter 11 the Israelites are beginning to complain about their misfortunes. It was not clear to scholars whether the Israelites were complaining to Moses or to God. Either way God herd their complaints and took it as if they were toward him. In return to their complaints God “burned against them”. “Then the fire of the Lord burned against them. And consumed some outlying parts of the camp”. Mosses then asked God to cease the fire in prayer and God did. “But the people cried out to Moses; and Moses prayed to the Lord, and the fire abated”.

According to A. W. Tozer, “What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us.” This aspect of my faith has become increasingly important to me as I have gone through this course. I entered this class with an interest in the study of God and the core beliefs of Christianity, yet not truly realizing how much I had to learn—how incomprehensible God truly is and how much information He has provided about Himself, that our human minds might be able to know Him pursue an intimate relationship with Him. This course has challenged me in ways that no other class has before by clearly presenting complicated information and allowing me to make judgements for myself.

In The Bible on Leadership, author Lorin Woolfe finds ways where leadership can be found in biblical stories, and comments that they form some of the major archetypes of our collective consciousness and can serve as universal examples of leadership at its best and worst. Through her whole book she gives examples of leadership by the main characters in each book, especially Moses in the book of Exodus. The Bible, the book of Exodus is the second book written, right after the book of Genesis, which talks about the creation of the world by God. It’s very interesting that this is the second book, because it shows why Colin Wilson’s statement is flawed. In the beginning of the book, there was the time of the beginning of civilization, and the people in Egypt would worship the Pharaoh, or king. It is said that God would protect a person named Moses, and then he would then be adopted by the Pharaoh’s daughter and be raised in royalty. Then in one of Christianity’s memorable biblical story, God calls Moses with a special revelation, through a burning bush to release His people from slavery. For many years, the people of Egypt suffered under the Pharaoh, and were treated unfairly building statues for him. Moses then would go and tell the Pharaoh the consequences if he does not let God’s people go, but the Pharaoh would not listen to Moses and then the pain came. Moses, through the power of God, would cast all sorts of plagues throughout the land, and also turning all of the water to blood, plagues of insects, boils, and hail. After the last plague, the eldest son of the Pharaoh would have died, and then the Pharaoh allowed the people to leave. One other part of the book of Exodus, was the presentation of the Ten Commandments, which is basically the universal rulebook on how to live under God. If it weren’t for Moses, he

In the same way, God protects Jesus’ life with instructive dreams for the wise men and Joseph. Another parallel between Moses and Jesus is that both of them are chosen by God to be saviors of the people of Israel. The contrast between these two instruments of salvation is that in Moses’ Exodus, he is saving the people of Israel “from sins others have committed against” them i.e. the Egyptian oppression, as opposed to Jesus who is sent to save humanity from “the sins they themselves have committed”. As motioned before, Moses was born in Egypt and returns to Egypt to free his people. In the same manner, Jesus is taken to Egypt to escape the life-threatening Herod.

Nehemiah demonstrates leadership and control throughout the Book, here are three relevant examples. First, Nehemiah shows leadership skills by having concern for the prosperity of the labors (NIV, Nehemiah 5:1-13). In Chapter five, we see Nehemiah stand up to the wealthy government that had been taxing the workers to the point of poverty. Nehemiah realized that the people would not be able to feed their families if they were required to build a wall instead of tending to the fields. Nehemiah used his leadership skills and told the truth; this persuaded the priests and government to stop taxing the people. Nehemiah was able to show them the error of their ways and get them to admit they were wrong. Author Rob Bots article, Nehemiah, A Leader in Prayer, writes “Even though Nehemiah was very angry (verse 6), he held back and considered how his reaction concerning this matter should be. His answer was formulated in such a way, that the nobles and rulers did not know how to answer him” (Bots, n.d.). His actions are one of a great leader, as he genuinely cares about the welfare of his workers.

The existence of God has been in question for as long as mankind has existed and thought logically. Many questions have plagued the human mind in regards to God, and there have been many arguments drawn with the hopes of proving the existence of a supreme being whom we know as God. The “God” question has been presented to every individual at some point in their lives. It is a topic that will bring forth never-ending questions and an equal amount of attempted answers. Many philosophers have formulated different rationales when examining the topic of God, some of which include how the word itself should be defined, what his role is in human existence, whether or not he loves us, and ultimately, if he even exists at all. Mankind cannot

Plato once asked whether you would rather be "an unethical person with a good reputation or an ethical person with a reputation for injustice." Ethical leadership has long been a debate in regards to its importance and place in the universal business world.

Everyone’s definition of their worldview is different. An area that is a part of someone’s worldview is their view of God. But first, does a God exist? Yes, there is a God that exists. God is not in a body like humans are, but He was able to come to Earth as a human being. I would have to describe Him as a being that is much different than anything we experience in the physical world. God is omnipresent; He is omniscient and omnipotent. God’s nature is loving, caring, and forgiving. Because I believe there is more than the material cosmos, it is absolutely possible that God exists which, is what I believe to be true. People can, however, worship other made up gods such as a sun god, golden calf, television, sports, a Hollywood star, or money. Although people have other gods, God is the only true God. There is no one or nothing like Him.
