Among all things that God created men to be – first and foremost he created us to be leaders- the only question really is are we going to be a Godly leader ( good leader) or not (poor leader).
When Adam and Eve sinned in the garden, God didn’t come to Eve – he came to Adam 1st to give an account of what had happened. Adam of course being the good leader he was (not) blamed God and Eve. ( the woman you gave me). Rather than accept the responsibility of leadership he deflected with blaming others.
Owning up to the responsibility of Godly leadership , is the first step into aligning ourselves with Gods plan for our lives as men. Our next step is how to lead.
Jesus modeled servant leadership as the only method that truly works. If anything, Jesus was a leader and he lead with a servant mentality
Matthew 20:24-26 25 Jesus called them together and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their high officials exercise authority over them. 26 Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant,
The flesh desires to Lord it over people, our family ,friend, and co-workers
So ask your self
In the home are you the servant leader, in the workplace are you the servant leader, with your friends are you the servant leader.
If you try doing this in the flesh it wont last long (try harder trail) , but if you allow God to transform you thru daily scripture, talking and praying with God, practice of repentance and fellowshipping with like minded brethren( iron sharpening)- he will transform and chisel you into the likeness of his Son.
You were created for leadership -So the question is really quite simple, what kind of leader are you? What kind do you want to be?
