We are all still becoming like Jesus. I wish I could tell you I’ve arrived. That I’m now fully Christlike, patient in every trial, humble in every success, always overflowing with love. But the truth is… I’m still on the journey. And if you’re honest, so are you.Paul’s words in Ephesians 4:22–24 ring in my ears:“Put off your old self, which belongs to your former manner of life and is corrupt through deceitful desires… be renewed in the Holy Spirit of your minds… and put on the new self, created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness.”And then there’s Romans 12:2:“Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind…”That word mind, nous in the Greek, isn’t just about intellect. It’s the whole inner landscape: your thoughts, perceptions, moral reasoning, and even the way you interpret reality. To renew it is to let the Holy Spirit rewire the very operating system you live from. It’s not about adding a bit more “Bible knowledge.” It’s a deep renovation of how you think, feel, and choose.And that renewal? It’s not a one-and-done. It’s a lifetime of partnership with the Holy Spirit.When leaders live open to the Holy Spirit’s transforming work, here’s what happens:- Teams become safer because vulnerability is normal.- Conflict becomes less toxic, because humility is modelled.- Growth accelerates because fear of failure loses its grip.I’ve watched this in my leadership. The more I’ve allowed God to address my insecurities, the more relaxed, and yet more effective, I’ve become. I’m kinder. More peaceful. And my team is healthier because of it.It’s not that the challenges go away. But when the heart is settled in God’s love, the challenges stop shaking you in the same way.If we truly long for revival that transforms nations, we can’t skip the step where God transforms us.We must keep putting off the old self. Keep putting on the new. Keep letting the Holy Spirit renew our nous, our whole inner framework.That will mean facing uncomfortable truths. It will mean repenting when He points out control, fear, or pride. It will mean letting go of the need to be admired, needed, or first.But it’s worth it.Because whole leaders raise whole people, and whole people can change the world.So here’s my challenge to you, leader to leader:Don’t hide behind your position. Don’t settle for managing your weaknesses in the dark. Let the Holy Spirit shine His light into every corner.Yes, it’s vulnerable. Yes, it’s humbling. But it’s also freeing.And freedom isn’t just for your sake, it’s for the sake of every person God has entrusted to your leadership.Sign up to the Monday Morning Moment.
