Striving For Excellence In Ministry Part 1

Welcome to the Got To Get Myself Together "Striving For Excellence in Kingdom Ministry" - 14 days of enriching leaders for the Kingdom tasks at hand, instilling a sense of responsibility for ministry resources in the Management Leader,  equipping and empowering the Movement Leader with the multifaceted skills necessary to advance the Kingdom of God  and to do Ministry on Any Level in the way God has called you to do with a spirit of excellence.

This will be a series of 14 articles on the excellence in ministry, business, and life. Let's Get Started!!!!!

Challenge Scripture: 1 Corinthians 12:31 (NKJV) - "But earnestly desire the best[a] gifts. And yet I show you a more excellent way."

The Message Bible says it very clearly in 1 Corinthians 12:27-31 - "You are Christ’s body—that’s who you are! You must never forget this. Only as you accept your part of that body does your “part” mean anything. You’re familiar with some of the parts that God has formed in his church, which is his “body”:

apostles
prophets
teachers
miracle workers
healers
helpers
organizers
those who pray in tongues.

But it’s obvious by now, isn’t it, that Christ’s church is a complete Body and not a gigantic, unidimensional Part? It’s not all Apostle, not all Prophet, not all Miracle Worker, not all Healer, not all Prayer in Tongues, not all Interpreter of Tongues. And yet some of you keep competing for so-called “important” parts.  But now I want to lay out a far better way for you."

I love this passage of scripture in the Message Bible. It really makes it clear that we are not all created to do the same thing, but we are all required to do our assignment in a much better way.

Excellence is defined as attention that gives birth to superior performance which causes maximized potential, promotion in life and praise of the Lord.

Excellence Diamond Nuggets:
*  You cannot aspire to that in which you have not been exposed to.
*  Excellence always attracts.
*  Excellence is not what you do, but who you are.
*  Excellence must be pursued for the pleasure and praise of God.

The desire and passion to develop and strive for excellence must out-weigh the pain and discomfort cause by change, otherwise the attempt to establish excellence will be aborted. To strive for excellence, you must abandon all excuses for a mediocre ministry, business, or lifestyle.

Assignment: 

1.  How Do You Define Excellence?
2.  What areas of ministry, business, or life are you striving for excellence?

"Got To Get Myself Together!" Radio Series. "The Power of Focus."

Often when we are feeling stuck, dissatisfied, confused, or unhappy we are focused on what we DON'T want. We are looking at the truck we'd like to avoid.

Focusing is a skill that you can learn and improve upon for the rest of your life. Most people never approach optimal focusing because they don’t know how.
