INDEED! Seen it happy multiple times.

And, even a good leader who starts out well and even may be humble and anointed . . . can get puffed up by the miracles God may do through him or her . . . and then become useless or even a liability to the Body of Christ.

God has a history in Scripture of laying such folks aside and/or disciplining them quite seriously. At least He tends to lift the anointing and give it to someone else--if He can find someone--or just withdraw it from blessing mankind, if He can't.
