Take heed, this is a season and time to get free from Simon the sorcerer, Acts 8. These type of people are in every ministry. They will seek to be a leader’s friend and want to join a leadership team. They are attracted to God’s Anointing and Power, but they want to be in leadership for wrong motives of a wrong (heart) – they want to control people, and they are a tool to defile or discredit a good ministry. Simon “believed” in Jesus and he (followed Phillip everywhere), but he was not delivered from his past… So take heed and root these people out and let God REPLACE them with the right ones you may have overlooked.
