‘Visionless Leaders are Problem Magnifier, Not Solvers’

The Deputy General Overseer of the Gospel Faith Mission International (GOFAMINT), Dr. Emmanuel Oluwayemi, has called on Nigerians to always look out for leaders with vision, “because any leader without a vision cannot envisage solution in anything he or she embarks on, instead, he or she would magnify it.”

The cl eric made this admonition recently during his three-day working visit to Region 12 of the GOFAMINT in Lagos, wherehe said: “When the blind leads the blind, they all fall into a pit. Vision is the driver and propelling force of a leader. A visionary leader sees an obstacle as a stepping stone to greatness.”

In his prophetic teaching, Oluwayemi said: “To attain success in life and ministry, vision must be the watchword which should ignite the fire of passion that fuels the commitment of a determined leader.”

The Pastor attributed the success of any visionary leader to five major specifics: “The vision of God; which is God’s holiness andwhoHe is,hatred forsinand God’s desire for all ministers and leaders to live holy, which would ultimately lead to success in their ministerial endeavour. The vision of yourself is of course pertinent in leadership because after having a right vision of God, a leader needs to have a vision of who he is in Christ, otherwise, such leader would be ministering from negative perspective.
