SECRET TEARS OF THE ANOINTED.

I have been in active mimistry for 24yrs now and I have seen that no one goes through abuse and betrayals like pastors. We live a world that hate shephards raised by God to watch over the souls of men.

Pastors go through untold pain and most times are plagued with tears of loneliness because they don't know who to talk to. I have discovered that no one asks ministers of the gospel how they are fairing. Everybody thinks they must be fine.

Sometime last month our building collapsed that took us so much money to buld due to engineering error. Thank God no life was lost and there was no single casualty. I was in so much pain and ofcourse I didn't recieve much consolation because people believe I should be fine by all means. That same day I was rallying around to see the state government because we were about to lose our land where the collapsed building was standing. Someone called me and I picked and told the person to call me in 3hrs and the person got furious with me and said "the money God gave you is to help people". I told the person you have not even told me what you need let it be that I refused to help. I only asked you for a little time. He got annoyed and texted me that he will never come to church again.

Listen, since you stopped coming to church, the church has not reduced rather God is still building His church. Stop threatening that you will no longer come to church because to anyone that leave better people enter.
PASTORS ARE HUMANS ALSO.

My wife had a miscarriage last 3 years and I saw her cry in tears. It was on a Wednesday so I left her in pains to come for service. I still preached from my heart and no one knew my lady was in pain and yet I left her to come and preach. After that I stood and counselled people for 3hrs before going to see my beloveth wife. She was crying and I wept with her. No one knew my pain. We are humans also. We need your prayers and not you backbiting and backstabbing. No wonder Paul echoed "Pray for Us".

Appreciate shephards who labour over your soul. Most times they leave thier pains to attend to people's pain. I am sure that if most pastors are given option they would not want to pastor again because of the pain and betrayals they have seen. We fight demons, principalities and but more intense battle come from those God sent us to pastor. Little thing they will start shouting "crucify him and in most cases for no tangible reason. Ministers of the Gospel are going through alot.

Take time and appreciate men who labour for you spiritually. Call them to know how they are doing and give to thier necessities. I have fought battles but my greatest battles have been seeing people whose rents I have paid, those I have fed and even sacrifice and laboured for turned and stabbed me. Who do we tell that we have midnight tears? Who do we tell that even though we appear strong, we also have challenges that need attention in prayer and care?

TO EVERY MINISTER LABORING IN THE VINEYARD IN THIS HOSTILE GENERATION THAT HATES US- KEEP ON AND DON'T GIVE UP BECAUSE YOUR LABOUR SHALL NOT BE IN VAIN. CELEBRATE YOUR MAN OF GOD TODAY.

God is always looking for a man in every generation but the availability is the key
