Does God seek leaders who show compassion for the week?

Question

He will deliver the needy who cry out, the afflicted who have no one to help. Psalm 72:12

I think this is why the psalmist prays for a leader who will deliver the needy and have pity on the weak, rescuing them from oppression and violence.

Praying for leaders who will rule with compassion toward the weak pleases God, because through compassionate leaders God's activity on earth becomes appearent.

As the psalmist say, " God alone does marvelous deeds"

Do you think God seeks leaders who show compassion for the week?

sorry...it's weak

Answer 1

The question you ask is a very hard question to answer. You must know god, in order to answer. You must know there is a god, in order to answer. In my opinion, God is not necessarily "the man upstairs". I believe that he is the goodness in each of our hearts. He controls us, and teaches us what is wrong, and what is right. He shows us the light when we are down, and pangs guilt into our minds, when we sin. This explains why there is evil in this world. Once one overcomes guilt, and no longer listens to the good of his or hers soul, god vanishes from the sinner for he realizes he is needed elsewhere. This is how a devil is born. With no goodness and no guilt, one can surpass what is normal. When the time comes, one must choose what is right, and what is easy. When one preaches and leads out of the good of his heart, he is preaching and leading, through the power of god. Anyone can be a leader and god is not the one who chooses you or holds you to it. It is you, you who decides to listen and use his wisdom and goodness, to bring about peace in this world for his goodness and teachings is in each person's heart, no matter where you come from, and what you have done. When there is guilt, there is god.

Answer 2

No, God seeks faithfulness.
David the Shepherd boy was a prime example. He was last in his family line as far as heritage was concerned. Yet God chose him as king. Why? he messed up more than a lot of other kings; he murdered, he committed adultery, etc.
Yet God called David "A man after my OWN heart"
If you read the Psalms you will see why. David is grieved over his sin, and repents and follows God each time after he falls.
He realizes what God desires, too:

Psa 51:17 The sacrifices of God [are] a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.

Answer 3

worrying approximately what happens to others. no longer wanting all people, fairly the somewhat harmless (young toddlers and animals), to go through in any way. 'S why i'm a vegetarian; i do no longer desire to make a contribution to the suffering and killing of billions of residing beings each and every 365 days. - "additionally, are there atheist ethical codes that are further insistent on the fee of compassion and/or mercy?" it may be staggering, yet no. In my own adventure, i've got found that atheists tend to be greater compassionate and, of direction, humanistic; in all probability by way of fact we comprehend it extremely is the only probability any individuals extremely have. - "an atheist and you're worried approximately practising compassion & mercy, it may be large in case you will be able to desire to let us know slightly approximately what you do & the variety you think of roughly it." I volunteer time and money. i've got been attempting to heed this quote greater too - "Be kinder than mandatory, for each guy or woman you meet is battling some variety of conflict."

Answer 4

I think that God does seek those leaders, but many are not, the majority in fact preach an altogether different Jesus than what is written, many false churches, leaders, prophets, etc are out there to dilute and pollute the real message Jesus brought.
The Bible also predicted this would happen and instructed those people to leave such churches and leaders.Condemned the leaders also.

Answer 5

It takes a good servant to make a good leader. Compassion is a necessary quality, but not only for the weak. We need compassion for the lost. We need compassion for the Christian who is still stuck in sin. We need compassion for those who have been spiritually abused but leaders who have no compassion and are not servants.

Answer 6

Yes God does marvelous deeds, I think he seeks leaders who show compassion for the week, I think he calls men and women to teach his word and to preach the gospel. I think some people try to call themselves to preach but fail unless God is with them.

Answer 7

I am sure that there are such leaders yes
i always feel that there are two types of people in this world
those who need to be needed and those who need
and both are equally important to our learning and spiritual development

ignore the people who obviously havent made a spelling mistake before xx

Answer 8

God didn't want the people of Israel to have a king, but they murmured and murmured and complained and complained, so He said well I would rather you didn't have a king, but if you want a King then I will make Saul your King. He doesn't want us to have a king today either, but for some people televangelists are their king that they send money to Ceasar, some people money is King, some people other things are king, even your stomach can be your King they say....you give it offerings of food to appease it.

Answer 10

Judging by the quality of our national leaders these days, I'd say no. People who become leaders in the real world don't become leaders by divine appointment. They become leaders through force of personality, willpower, charisma, and aggressiveness.
