Five Things That Lead To Corruption Among The Ministers Of God

Theologically, corruption is a spiritual, moral impurity or deviation from an ideal.

Five things that can lead to corruption are enumerated as follows:

  1. Dishonesty

    As a minister of God, you must live a life of godly character, a minister of God must not disobey his master. Whatsoever the condition may be a minister of God should always say the truth. But can you imagine nowadays many minister they can't say the truth again because of what they are going to eat. May God help us and deliver us. 2peter 2: 2 say "And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reasons of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.

  2. Immoral practices

    Psalms 14:1 AMP Bible :The [empty-headed] fool has said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable deeds; there is none that does good or right. It is expedient for minister to be morally sound. You should stay away for immoral practices like fornication and Adultery. As a minister, you are to focus your thoughts upon the good things of life and upon God. Give your mind to positive thinking. As a minister of God you should not harbour any immoral,freshly,worldly,selfish,sinful and negative thoughts disrupt and destroy peace. Please ministers whenever an evil thought flashes your subconscious mind,purge it out immediately with the word of God.

  3. Self confident

    Romans 12:1 KJV:I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. We must understand that God loves, is holy and righteous.He is merciful and gracious to forgive sin as well as judge sin, as a minister of God we must show love to one another. Your aim or ambition must to be conformed to Christ's death: we have to subject totally to the owner of our life. We must not carry ourselves more that God. Many ministers of God they have grow wings to the extend that nobody can control them. You have to deny yourself and put your desires and flesh to death and to do only the will of God. Luke 9:23 "And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me".

  4. Bribery Proverb 29: 4 "The king by judgment establisheth the land: but he that receiveth gifts overthroweth it".

    As a minister we must not take any bribe. It is the habitual character of some ministers to collect money before they can intercedes for people; and thus turn the church of God to a business centre. Many Ministers of God today name their price before they honour invitation for any special programme, they do not allow the spirit of God to rule their lives, they do things by themselves; they even forget God who called them into the ministry. Is that what we are call for or assign to do as a man of God.

  5. Idolatry

    1 corithians 10:7 "Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play". It is no gain - saying that many so called ministers of God engage in Idolatry. Some of them are regular customers worshipping shrine they have use Ogun to represent God as using the charm or voodoo giving to them by diviner to perform miracle, many as turn to "OGBONI" Because of lack of patience, looking for power. Forgetting all power belong to God. Some enter it because they want to be popular in the world, some in other to be in wealth, they want to ride the best or latest cars and build cathedral. We are not if concern about how people is going to get to the kingdom of God but how we are going to reign and shine in the world that is what we are after.that is the reason why ministers of God is not honour again because of what they have put themselves into. May God help us in Jesus name!

This is a wonderful one dear, all you analyze is the truth, but I think the most important one is. Being "Born again." Every name we answering is a title, but it takes only those who are possessed by the Spirit of God to manifest the true vetue of LOVE which bind every commandments to subjection, for without love we will be victim of all the things you wrote.
