Are All Leaders Appointed By God?

Surely not, if we're to go by the teachings of Christ.

Matthew 15:13-14 (KJV)

But he answered and said, Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up.
Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.


So if not all leaders in the House of God were appointed by God, how much more those of this world?

Hence the idea or teaching that all leaders were appointed by God is false and did not come from God. This was also corroborated by the Word of the Lord through the mouth of one of His prophets.

Hosea 8:4 (KJV)

They have set up kings, but not by me: they have made princes, and I knew it not: of their silver and their gold have they made them idols, that they may be cut off.

So although God appoints and raises leaders where need be and in accordance with His plan and divine arrangement concern mankind, not all leaders were appointed by God.

God bless.

Some leaders were appointed by men. Some even by the devil.

For instance, the Antichrist is going to be the devil's appointment not God's.

The reason the church got to know about the emergence of the Antichrist despite being the appointment of the devil, is because God revealed the upcoming events in the last days to His servants, so they'd be prepared for such an outcome and not taken unawares when they see these things comes to pass.

Jesus Himself said:

Mark 13:22-23 (KJV)

For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect.
But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things.


So God foretold His own concerning the emergence of such leaders who would be raised and appointed by the devil in the last days, to prepare them in advance, so they'd be ready and not misled by them, because these things shall surely come to pass.

God bless.

God bless.

His Plan was to continue His rule if men but men rejected Him and wanted to rule themselves which He warned that He would walk away if they chose that option. 1 Samuel 8;10-18

"And ye shall cry out in that day because of your kings which ye have chosen AND THE LORD WILL NOT HEAR YOU IN THAT DAY"

So people should just leave God alone because of their kings.

Some leaders are also appointed by the devil

Since God is not setting up kings then the devil is the one raising them up which is why the world is destroyed today.

JAGABAN IS GOD'S APPOINTED!

Romans 13:1-2 and Daniel 4:17.
Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is NO authority except that which is from God. The authorities that exist have been appointed by God. Consequently, whoever resists authority is opposing what God has set in place, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves

This decision is the decree of the watchers, the verdict declared by the holy ones, so that the living will know that the Most High rules over the kingdom of mankind and gives it to whom He wishes, setting over it the lowliest of men.’

GOD'S SELECTION IS OUR ELECTION!!!

May God help our president elect to turn Nigeria around positively!

The one and only King God intended to install for a thousand years is Jesus Christ.
So from Genesis to Revelation all the messages in the Bible is pointing to one thing: God's government under a perfect ruler CHRIST!

That's what King David who happens to be the man after God's heart prophesied about: the coming anointed King (CHRIST)
David said:

Jehovah declared to my Lord: “Sit at my right hand Until I place your enemies as a stool for your feet.” Psalms 110:1

Any human King that God has a dealing with is just to foreshadow what God's anointed King will achieve globally when he is installed as the anointed (Christ) to rule over mankind for a thousand years then later subjects himself to his father and God! 1Corinthians 15:27-28

So after the Christ has been introduced by the first century Jewish disciples of Jesus whoever comes into politics is working directly for Satan whose plan has nothing to do with God's Kingdom! John 14:30; 2Corinthians 4:4; 1John 5:19

May you have PEACE! smiley

No, bad leaders are not appointed by God.

When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but people mourn when the wicked rule.

How?

Never! Lagos belong to a sailor from Portugal , the man was short with long mustache , this is what ojukwu told us, the Yoruba want to change history, this is why all Lagos communities bears Portuguese names but Yoruba changed PortoLende to Obalende
Portkeja to Ikeja.

Portoshodi to Oshodi , portguikorodu to Ikorodu, porAjah to Ajah, this is an attempt to steal Portuguese land by the Yorubas

Ojukwu also told us that Port Harcourt belong to a prostitute from England, the woman named the city Port Harcourt after she slept with King Jaja of Opobo

Likewise, Cross Rivers State belong to Mammy water that crossed two rivers in calabar to eat dog meat.

Obi and Obi Ezenwekili will fight for us, Ojukwu will never Labour in vain, his dream was to capture Lagos InSh Allah!

Epe was named FREE TRADE zONE by the English, so therefore Epe belong to the British.

Festac town also belong to One Mr Festus from France.
Lagos is a No Man Land

No.

But sometimes God allows the evil ones to occupy the seats through evil means so that later they will be disgraced.

The same way pharaoh hardened his heart and was later disgraced is how it will happen in Nigeria.

At first they will think they are playing God, but later God will play them.

Yes and No.

Nwee ndidi let me explain biko. Lol.

There are many Gods and every leader has a God that he or she bows to.

There are different Gods like the God of humans, the God of non-humans, the God of Christians, the God of Muslims, the God of the British, the God of Nigeria and so many other Gods.

That means that anybody who emerges a leader has been appointed or anointed by a certain God somewhere.

Mana the God or Gods that created all creation and creatures is neither good nor evil.

The God or Gods that created all creation and creatures does not have a religion.

The God or Gods that created all creation loves diversity and ensures balance among all Its creatures.
