"The Shepherd and their Flock”


"My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow Me; John 10:27.

If we're not careful people in authority forget it's God's House and become glorified in them and not in what God is saying and trying to get across. And folk wonder why things in the ministry become chaotic and saints are leaving. Things begin to be done in secret and deceit slowing creeps in, hidden agendas come, cliques begin to form. GOD din't put you on this Earth for folk to like you; but to do HIS will, HIS perfect Will

Not saying all ministries are like this, but we as leaders must be very careful in being alert in this area. We are all God's people. You have those who have been abused and rejected all their lives. They shouldn’t have to come in the church and be hurt by you that are in leadership.

And for you leaders who are thinking more about your bank account instead of HIS sheep, God says enough! No more will my children be hurt. If you know you or a leader that you’ve placed in authority over one isn’t walking in submission to what God is saying; but must do their own thing, it’s time for a Spirit check. One must not lead the sheep to the slaughter house. GOD gave them sheep for you to tend to not to abuse anymore.

Luke 12:47 And the servant who knew His Masters will, and didn’t prepare himself or do accordingly to HIS will shall be beaten with many stripes.

Jeremiah 10:21
Therefore thus says the LORD God of Israel concerning the shepherds who are tending my people: "You have scattered my flock and driven them away, and have not attended to them; behold, I am about to attend to you for the evil of your deeds," declares the LORD. I wonder how may in leadership actually meditated on this! SELAH.
