The Anointing
Are you so desperate for the anointing? these are some few points which will help you.
1 1. The price of obedience.
There is power in the presence of the
Holy Spirit and there is a price we each must pay for it. The presence of the
Holy Spirit leads us to live in the power of the anointing if we are willing to
pay the price of obedience.
·
What is the price? Acts 4:13: "Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived
that they were uneducated and untrained men, they marveled. And they realized that they had been with
Jesus."
·
That
is the key—to be with Jesus—over and over and over, constantly, not just a few
minutes a day, not just occasionally.
·
The
presence and the anointing. Example, the glory of God came out waiting in the
presence of God as it was seen on the face of Moses (ex 34:35).
2.
The Leadings of the Holy Spirit daily.
The
Holy Spirit is the carrier of the presence and the power of God. It’s the Holy
Spirit that releases the anointing of God. The Bible says that you shall have
power when Holy Spirit shall come upon you and you shall be witnesses to me. (Acts
1:8)
Holy
Spirit can lead you to experience the fullness and the power of the Godhead
each and every day.
We
must pray for the leadings of the Holy Spirit everyday blessed day. “We should
tell God not to take his Holy Spirit from me”.
I
would rather die than face a future without Your touch on my life.
·
The
Holy Spirit also teaches us how we can have an intimate relationship with God.
The made Paul to say that “I may know him and the power of his resurrection
(Phil 3:10)”. Our goal is to deepen the
relationship with God and to grow to a greater dimension of the anointing.
·
If
we are not lead by the Holy Spirit, we take a longer time in receiving the
anointing. How did the Israelites go through three days journey in forty years?
It was either they were walking in circles or they were not moving at all. They
also complained throughout their journey. Complaining blinds us from see the
directions of the Holy Spirit. (Ex 16:2).
3.
The desire to know God.
“Draw near to God and He will draw
near to you"
(James 4:8). It's time to do that. It's time to say, "Here I am, Holy
Spirit. Come. Walk with me. Help me receive what the Father has for me. Help me
hear what the Lord is saying."
Be
assured that your desire can be fulfilled. You cannot know the power of God's
anointing until you experience the presence of God. The presence of God is more
than a mere "Goosebumps". Because the "Goosebumps” experience is
always short lived but the experience in presence of God is endless. There are
different levels in the presence of God one in the level of “the blanket of love”. In this level you
can literally experience the love of God which surpasses all understanding.
4.
Death to self.(Revelation 12:11)
The
anointing comes with a responsibility. The anointing comes for service so if we
receive and we do not give we become stagnant in the level we are we do not
grow in God. The only way we can grow in the anointing is to serve with it. The
anointing is not for our self-gain, we must have in mind ‘others first our
self-last. In other serve well we must die to self, we must be willing to lay
down our lives for the benefit of others. The anointing of the servant is a
self-death anointing defending those God has entrusted in your hand by all
means both spiritual and physical. This cannot be done without imitating Christ
who showed us of how it can be done.
5.
Anointing through intersection.
Praying
for our spiritual fathers, mentors, church leaders and elders course the Lord
to release a particular anointing upon your life. Love anointing is also into
once life when he intercedes for a particular people or personalities and most
of times it is the anointing of favor.
6.
Casting down arguments (2 Corinthians
10:4-6).
We argue
with the Holy Spirit and question the direction he gives us. Our thoughts should
be guided by the word of God.
