When Ministers Turn Into Monsters Jana Alcorn Leader, transformation is defined as a change of form, identity, shape, or fashion. We usually think of this process positively in Christianity, as relating to being turned from darkness to light, from evil to good, from vile to pure. However, that same minister , unless yielded totally to the purposes of God, can be distorted into a cruel, abusive behavior with no resemblance of their former state of a meek and lowly servant of the Lord. Let's take a look at five strategies of this satanic plan of reverse transformation to turn ministers into monsters. Do nothing out of selfish ambition.
Ambition is a desire for influence and rising in a field of endeavor.
Ambition is a necessary ingredient to success. Ambition, selfishly and wrongly motivated, without integrity will transform a minister into a monster. Fleshly ambition is driven, whereas the Holy Spirit teaches us to wait upon our ministry. We are to wait upon the Lord. If you wait on God, you will never need to be ashamed.
