A few months ago, I heard a message from a very intense female preacher. She has a ministry in Uganda and was basically talking about Fatherhood and spiritual authority. She talked about many things but here is what stood out for me. She mentioned how she got a call from one of her mentors. He was planning a trip to the city and wanted her to know that he would honor her.
The message has many applications but I think one of the most important things that comes with this is feeling of empowerment, protection, love and approval that can make the toughest of struggles bearable.
The other benefit that I have found in heritage is that if for example you sit under the 'ministry' of one, you tend to get the advantages of all those that have contributed to the health and wealth of that particular 'Man of God'.
It is the same with all sort of other disciplines.
Politics, art, music and much more. When you study history and philosophy as well as other mainstream disciplines, you often concentrate on the historic aspects of the study to understand how the people that developed those theories thought. It also allows you to connect with them on an intellectual level but also in a much stronger spiritual level.
The trick is being able to 'endure' the time spent with these people who if they know the trade will often be nasty on purpose just to make sure that they give out their gift to the right people.
It may also be a secret to living longer...or forever. Finding someone who can be a useful vessel for your spirit when you pass (but that is a discussion for another forum).
