"So they nominated two men: Joseph called Barsabbas (also known as Justus) and Matthias. Then they prayed, 'Lord, you know everyone’s heart. Show us which of these two you have chosen to take over this apostolic ministry, which Judas left to go where he belongs.' Then they cast lots, and the lot fell to Matthias; so he was added to the eleven apostles" (Acts 1:23-26).

Hi and in Acts 1:24 it was the Lord that chose who was to take Judas position , Matthias and these were the apostles to sit on 12 thrones that are to govern Israel !!

Here we are talking DEACONS and I believe that 1 Tim 3:1 and Acts 20:28 and Acts 14:23 show how that happens !!

Hopefully when they pray and vote today. It is the Holy working within them that helps make their decisions.
