The elders who rule well are to be considered worthy of double honor, especially those who work hard at preaching and teaching. I Timothy 5:17
The leaders of our churches need all the encouragement they can get. Too often there is a tremendous lack of respect for teachers and those in leadership authority. The devil has enough angels to destroy our leadership without getting help from us. When Elisha stepped into Elijah’s shoes, he had a credibility problem. He needed the authority and respect to ministry to Israel. One day in II Kings 2, forty two kids mocked him, calling him "baldhead". Suddenly two female bears came out of the woods and tore them up. God performed many miracles to give Elisha the respect he had to have. Leaders still need our help. Got some evil criticism for your leaders? Watch out for those she-bears!
The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit
Philippians 4:23
