Have you ever had to confront someone with the truth. It is very tough. Here Daniel had to give a message from God to Nebuchadnezzar. Nebuchadnezzar had a short temper and might have ordered Daniel to be killed.
GREAT LEADERS ARE HUMBLE!
Sometimes it's hard to give a friend advise.
In today's passage God gave the King a year to repent and turn 180 degrees from his pride and arrogance. But Nebuchadnezzar did not repent and God stripped his kingdom away from him. He had to flee to the wilderness where he became insane or a beast.
GREAT LEADERS ARE HUMBLE!
Nebuchadnezzar tried to replace God and wanted everyone to worship him instead of God.
If we try to replace God we become a beast to everyone around us. As a father am I putting God first in my family or am I a beast that comes home every night trying to find fault?
There are a lot of situations in Leadership where we can let it go to our heads.
"God resists the Proud and gives grace to the Humble." Prov 3:34
I really don't want God to resist me.
GREAT LEADERS ARE HUMBLE!
Just Go!!
Rick
