7 Ways to know if you are losing it!

Saul said to Samuel, "I have sinned, for I have transgressed the commandment of the LORD and your words, because I feared the people and obeyed their voice. 1 Samuel 15:24 (ESV)

Saul lost his kingdom because of the fear brought by the voices of others!

Other voices can cause you to lose a lot of things: position, ministry, integrity, relationships or even family.  When leaders begin to put the voices of people, culture, consensus & circumstances above godly conviction they are headed to disaster. Here are some ways to know if you are losing it...

1. You change your mind because the "big giver" asked you to.
2. You do what the "mega church" is doing, without God saying so.
3. You spend a lot of time trying to find out, "who said that."
4. When you find "who said that", you try to change their mind.
5. You kinda "beg" people to stay, who say they are leaving your church or team.
6. You don't have a vision from God, but rather a best guess.
7. You don't do what God said, because you fear the "push back."

Are you doing any of these? If so, how many? Be careful, leading with God is an incredible privilege few have. Don't lose it because you chose to follow an opposing voice!
