DAY SIX— Shared Leadership

Earlier, Moses had been overwhelmed trying to carry the responsibilities of leading Israel alone. With Jethro’s counsel, Moses appointed capable leaders as chiefs over thousands, hundreds, fifties, and tens.

This was more than just good management—it was a spiritual principle. God never intended His work to rest on one person’s shoulders. Healthy leadership is shared, and God distributes wisdom, responsibility, and authority among His people.

In the church today, this principle still applies. We are the body of Christ, each with different gifts, called to serve together. When leadership is shared, burdens are lighter and God’s people flourish.
