One of the foundational pieces to our prayer life is meditating on Scriptures. Sometimes, I will be reading my Bible and a Scripture pops out at me. Often, it speaks to what I’m going through in life at that moment. Other times, I know I need help in an area of life, so I pray certain Scriptures over my life. Today, I wanted to list out some of the greatest Bible verses on leadership for you. These have personally helped me in my own life, and I pray they help you today as well. If one sticks out to you as you’re going down the list, I encourage you to write it down. Stick it somewhere you’ll see it on a daily basis. I believe God has something to teach you!
