HOW TO BE A GOOD ASSISTANT PASTOR

*HOW TO BE A GOOD ASSISTANT PASTOR*

- If God has called you to be an assistant, abide in that calling. 

- You don't need to be a founder to excel and make impact in ministry.

- Bishop David Abioye, Bishop Sackey, Rev. Tom Amenkhenan, Bishop S. J. Wakili Power, etc, are examples of impactful, influential and successful assistants. 

- Remember, if you are not faithful in that which is another man's, who will give you your own:

To be a good assistant, do the following:

*1.* Cover the nakedness of your leader.
- Don't be like Ham that talked about the nakedness of his father in public, rather be like Shem and Japheth that covered their father's nakedness. 
- Should your leader go wrong, intercede for him privately. 
- Tell it not in Gath and publish it not in the streets of Ashkelon.
- That you are not supposed to be a partaker of another man's sin does not mean you should be a broadcaster of another man's sin. 

*2.* Make up for the mistakes, misdeeds and misdemeanors of your leader.
- If your leader is weak in an area, develop strength in that area to help him and the ministry. 
- Don't use his mistakes against him rather make up and fill the blank spaces. 

*3.* Believe in your leader. 
- There is no need following someone you don't believe in. 
- Let people know that you believe in him. 

*4.* Talk positively about your leader publicly. 
- Always talk about your leader. 
- Quote his messages and wise sayings. 
- Amplify and magnify him before people. 

*5.* Don't grieve him. 
- Bishop David Oyedepo recently showered encomiums on Bishop Abioye for not grieving his heart. 
- Bishop Oyedepo and Bishop Dag Heward Mills always eulogize their assistants to high heavens.
- Avoid betrayal, unfaithfulness, breakaway, rebellion etc. 

*6.* Preach and teach exactly what your leader is preaching and teaching. 
- Don't preach another gospel from what your leader is preaching. 
- If you are not comfortable with the teachings of your leader, resign and leave instead of being a trouble maker and destroying yourself in the process. 

*7.* Have the spirit of your leader. 
- After having the Spirit of God, endeavour to have the spirit of your leader. 
- There were all baptized into Moses. Be baptized into your leader. 
- Apostle Paul said of his spiritual son Pastor Titus, "WALKED WE NOT IN THE SAME SPIRIT".
- It was said of Elisha, the spirit of Elijah doeth rest on Elisha.

*8.* Honour and respect your leader. 
- Elisha honoured and respected Elijah.
- Joshua honoured and respected Moses.
- Bishop Abioye honours and respects Bishop Oyedepo.
- Bishop Sackey honours and respects Bishop Dag.

*9.* Always be spiritually prepared.
- Live your life in such a way that you can stand in for your leader at anytime. 
- Grow spiritually so that you can represent your leader well. 

*10.* Stand by your leader through tough times. 
- Bishop Abioye resigned his job in Kwara and followed Bishop Oyedepo to Kaduna to grow the ministry that seemingly had no future then. 
- Bishop Sackey left his job and legal practice to grow the ministry with Bishop Dag Heward Mills.
- Pastor Tom Amenkhenan left all in Edo State to join Pastor Chris Oyakhilome in Lagos to grow the ministry. 
- Bishop Wakili Power resigned from his lucrative accounting job to labour with Archbishop John Praise. 
- Don't abandon your leader in time of crises.
