Re: Pastor's problems
I can fully understand what you are all talking about. I am a Pastor and have the same problem with preaching with things that I struggle with. I mean this is difficult for me to talk about but I fell honesty will help. I struggle with being really good looking and preach against being really good looking all the time.

The answer is the context of the text...Lordship.
Luke 22:25-27
25 And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and they that exercise authority upon them are called benefactors.
26 But ye shall not be so: but he that is greatest among you, let him be as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve.
27 For whether is greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? is not he that sitteth at meat? but I am among you as he that serveth.
(KJV)
In the Kingdom, authority comes through servanthood. In addition Kingdom authority is not the same as carnal authority (lordship).

WE are all called to pray for one another...not just a special class of minsters within the body of Christ. We are ALL called to serve. Thus we are ALL the anointed of God. We may not all be anointed to do the same exact work, but if you have the Spirit of God you have the anointing of God on you.

Agreed
