man of God
Devoted religious leader
A man of God is a religious figure—a priest, minister, prophet, or other spiritual leader.
The phrase carries weight and reverence, suggesting someone who speaks with divine authority or lives by sacred principles: The man of God blessed the congregation.
It can also be used ironically when such figures fail to live up to their calling.
