06/16/26 GOD'S PLAN FOR LEADERSHIP
God's plan from the beginning has been for the husband to be the head of his family, and for a qualified, Spirit-filled Christian man to have the ministry work and office of pastoring, teaching and leading the local church.
Just as God planned on marriage being between a male and female (not the delusional or "identity" confusion of today), God has also planned the order of authority in the home and in the church.
This order is based in the creation of the human race and the directives of the Holy Spirit in the New Testament.
A song says, "Mamas, don't let your sons grow up to be cowboys." A more important song should say, "Mamas, don't let your daughters grow up to violate God's order of authority."
Yes, I would also say, the mamas and the daddies should raise their sons to be Christian, loving, masculine, and leaders at home and in the church."
There has been a problem for years in certain parts of the Christian community with females taking or being given authority over men, in their homes and churches. Families, churches and society have suffered because the men who should have been the leaders turned from their God given responsibility. Now we are seeing a grab for power by narcissistic females, and there is a surge among the women who hold manhood and male authority in disdain.
Young females are being raised and trained to abandon the high calling of womanhood and motherhood. There should be no question as to where that corruption comes from.
Just as Satan has been actively seeking to destroy the human family and the earthly family of God since the Garden, we have been witnessing an intensifying of chaos concerning the Divine roles of male and female in these recent days. There is a popular but destructive view among females today that demeans and degrades God's plan for male leadership in the home and the church. I have seen wives who readily run roughshod over their husbands and teach their daughters to be "men haters" by the way they ridicule, belittle, scorn, mock, disrespect their husbands, in front of their daughters. I have seen the daughters follow in the steps of their narcissistic mothers, and though they claim to love their fathers, they treat him worse than they would treat a dog, literally.
There are qualifications for serving God, and some of those qualifications are gender oriented. It is not time or culture or societal norms that determine God's standards; it is God's wisdom.
No female who has been raised in my family or discipled in my ministry has been taught to abandon her God-given place of ministry. No loving Christian mother, with Biblical knowledge, should ever encourage her daughters to seek authority over their husband or leadership over men in her church. Sometimes the self-exaltation is mixed with talent, sincerity, charisma and covered in sweetness, but the disdain for males and God's authority is still there, and it is still disobedience to Divine truth.
