Question - What does a Man of God look like biblically?

You can always tell a man of God….
Because he comes from obscurity, he emerges from a wilderness experience with a ruddy face. Comes without the trappings of this life and he has one cloak and a shepherds staff in his hand. He has no purse and nowhere to lay his head. He has taken leave of this world and his eye is fixed on the end of the race. He does not trust himself in the flesh but lives completely dependant on the power of the Holy Spirit to fulfil the ministry that God has called him too. His mind is saturated in the word of God and he not only understands the ways of God but something of the character of God rests upon his soul. He has been near the cross and he has been sore broken in the place of dragons. He has given up making plans of his own. His mind in absorbed in discerning the will of God. He is carrying his cross and daily he looks death in the face knowing that eternity will open bright and blessed. He has only one thing in his life God and he is not turning back.

He looks like Christ Steve
