(1) I have observed, as a christian who is a politician, that many christians who are into politics fail to realise the relationship btn their faith and the political vocation they have chosen. Most end up forcing their spiritual side onto everyone they interact with in politics.
2)While it's important that we have politicians who "fear the Lord",it's dangerous having them not understanding that "the fear of the Lord is the beginning of understanding " (Job 28:28).We r supposed, not only to understand scriptures, but the role we shld play as politicians
(3) I have seen many politicians, my brother @nelsonchamisa included,wanting to turn the whole country into a huge church congregation.That's wrong if one is a politician.That role is 4 pastors.
(4)Politicians,epecially the president of the country, is supposed to provide practical solutions, not spiritual counsel. He/she avails themselves to solving practical problems through practical & canal means ( King Solomon 1Kings 3:9).
(5) The role of prophets, pastors, bishops (spiritual leaders)is the one that entails praying for the leaders, imparting the super (spiritual) upon the natural(canal man) so that a president or leader has the supernatural (above natural) ability to tackle our physical problems.
(6) It is wrong for one to try & conflate the role of the spiritual leader & that of a terrestial or earthly government leader. I have seen both @nelsonchamisa and @edmnangagwa wanting to be both spiritual & political leaders. It's a very BIG NO for me.
(7)Recently I saw @nelsonchamisa purporting to be praying 4 patients in hospitals while @edmnangagwa purported to be 'interceding' 4 Zim.That's wrong.Pple in hospitals need canal(medical)solutions.We need earthly solutions 4 sanctions 2b removed,not fake prayers from politicians
(8)Its wrong to force spiritual solutions on those needing medical solutions.Isn't it evident from their going to hospital not church that they're seeking natural remedies to their problems? Imagine prophets using medical 💉 on pple who come to them for spiritual solutions?
9)I am not saying political leaders shldnt have spiritual guidance,they shld always have & there shld be a lot of behind the scenes consultations by politicians to church leaders, especially prophets,so they can get the super(spiritual)in order 4 them 2 operate above the natural
(10)Jesus, being King of Kings, did not establish a political government on earth & successful Kings in Israel always sought spiritual guidance from the prophets of Yahweh but NEVER pretended to be prophets,apostles or pastors.There shld be a clear separation btn King & pastor
(11)The prophets, pastors, apostles who are representatives of God's Kingdom on earth are BIGGER than us politicians so as politicians we shldn't put these spiritual offices into disrepute by dragging them into politics.
12)As politicians,we shld humble ourselves & accept that we need the counsel of our spiritual leaders rather than try to compete with them in their area. As political leaders we are voted 4 by all pple, believers & non-believers alike.We shld provide them with practical solutions
(13) It is prudent, therefore, that we don't try & make the country a big church, or try & pretend that we are bishops yet our calling is in politics.Until my brother @nelsonchamisa chooses what exactly he wants btn being a Pastor or Pres,I don't see him excelling in both.
(14) As for ED, it's clear he can't be either.I don't believe he has a calling 4 anything.He stumbled upon the presidency but the state of the country in the last 2 yrs bears testimony he is out of depth.We surely need a Godly Pres, but not one who doesn't understand his role.
