It is important to discern the difference between gifts, fruit, and anointing. While the gifts are not rescinded (Rom.11:29), real fruit comes from abiding in the vine (John 15:4), and true anointing flows from the Head (1John2:20). We must know them by their fruit (Matt.7:16)

Do not be deceived.
A leader can look the part (1 Sam. 9:2),
have a calling (1 Sam. 9:16-17),
be anointed (1 Sam. 10:1),
have an established resume (1 Sam.13:1),
and still veer wildly off course (1 Sam. 13:13-14).
All it takes is fixing one’s eyes on the wrong thing.
Never forget that it is by their fruit that you shall know them (Matt. 7:15-17).
