Man of God

Man of God is a biblical title of respect applied to prophets and beloved religious leaders. The term appears 78 times in 72 verses of the Bible, in application to up to 13 individuals: Moses is the only person called “man of God” in the Torah. Nowadays, most religious leaders, Pastors, Prophets and Evangelists are referred to as Man of God or Servants of God. While the Scriptures states in Acts 17:24-25; “The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by human hands. And he is not served by human hands, as if he needed anything. Rather, he himself gives everyone life and breath and everything else.

Since the Scriptures can not be set aside, and the last commission or the Great Commission in Mathew 28:16-20 states; Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” That is Evangelism. Therefore the Scripture text in Acts 17:24-25 indicates that there are no human servants of God. Angels are the Messengers of God. Going to a mountain, or hilltop or church or camp or special location to seek God or a human ‘servant of God’, is the height of folly. God is in you and He is everywhere. God is Spirit, and his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in truth.” May the Spirit enlighten us, bring light into the darkness that we dwell in. Amen. Jesus Christ is the way and the truth and the life. That life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
