HE DANGER OF CHOOSING SOMEONE GOD HAS NOT CALLED BY PASTOR BENNY HINN
Sometimes we forced on God Someone he has not called. Even family members are forced on Him and we literally bring harm to them, by forcing them into God’s Will when God never never never called them.
So that’s why Moses said, Lord, who have you chosen? He had a son Goshen, yet? Eliezer. I’m sure he loved his sons. But God said, No, I want Joshua to lead. Sometimes, a pastor makes the mistake of putting his son as someone to follow in his footsteps.
And what he has just done is he has set him up for failure because that anointing carries with it protection. listen carefully now.
I’m gonna say something people don’t like to talk about but it’s true. A pastor sometimes will, will make a decision to bring his wife in as CO pastor. And now she’s open to attack. Because the anointing on him, will protect him. But that anointing on him will not protect her. Because the anointing only the anointing that God gives her will protect her.
So they force her on God, I want my wife in, well God didn’t call her he called him. And divorce follows Or she’s attacked mentally. Emotional troubles setting. That’s why many wives of pastors end up having emotional troubles, having mental challenges, and sometimes even worse, or demonic activity begins in her life and she begins to lose her mind because the husband placed her in a place that God never chose for her. She still has her place. She needs to find it on her own. She needs to find it on her own.
So, but now,the other way around also happens where God will call a woman and she’ll decide to bring in a man to be like her Call And God says, I don’t call that I didn’t call him and tragedy hits. Kathryn Kuhlman is a perfect example. Miss Kuhlman was called by into a mighty healing ministry. She ministered for years. 16 years on her own, shook America.
One day she decided to get married to a man named Mr. Waltrip, that guy was never called, That marriage lasted three weeks. It destroyed him and his family. He left his wife left his family to marry Miss Kuhlman, that anointing was on her for her, not for him. But she forced him on God and the whole thing came tumbling down.
So we have to be careful sometimes. We force people on the Lord that he had not planned to anointing us in that function. That’s a very powerful thing I just said. So Moses understood I’m not going to force anyone on the Lord, I will wait till God tells me how to bring it and that person received the anointing and he laid hands on him remember?
And there was an impactation.
Same thing, think about Samuels sons been enforce on the kingdom of God. He didn’t raise them up to be private in his place. He knew better. And I can keep giving you many examples in the Bible.
Now. Whom has God called? That’s what we have to find out. And when you find that out, then you go for it. And the anointing will come and protect that person. When the Lord called me into the ministry, I do not know any of this. It took me years to find out and then you learn by watching. You learn by listening. You learn by paying attention to things that you don’t talk about.
I walked into the office of a very famous pastor not long ago, and he said would you mind praying with my wife I said, Yeah, where is she said she’s home. I said, Okay, let’s call Lauren we call them and demons were talking on the phone.
She was very troubled. And I wanted to know what happened. So after I hung a volunteer came to to tell me that he brought her in as CO pastor. I didn’t tell them, but to God. I said it’s a mistake. Because sometimes God will call the wife or a whole different ministry.
Maybe to be involved in a whole different area of ministry. But he brought her in because she wanted to please somebody I guess out there. And he brought disaster. So we have to be careful with with the anointing for for leadership.
When you submit under an oil begins to affect your life and you begin to submit to the authority of that ministry, and you’re faithful under that umbrella. Are you following what I’m telling you?
And you are submitted in time, God will trust you with an anointing that belongs just to you. You’ve learned much you’ve received much. You’re not the CO you’re not the one equal. You know, you haven’t pushed yourself to say you’re next in command here.
You’ve served. And then after you’ve served, and God is the one who rewards men and women, he’s the one that promotes promotion comes not from the east or the west. We all know that but from the Lord. So it’s important you understand first of all.
