- The anointing can be stifled if the people refuse to receive it from the person that God is sending it through. Things such as pride, envy, bitterness, and unforgiveness against an anointed person can prevent the receiver from accepting it. The anointed person must go to people that can receive it.
Yes, God does release His anointing through impartation but the real root of receiving that anointing is to:
- Community Abide in Him (live in, never departing Him, pray without ceasing)
- Community is Being rooted in Him, knit to Him (in the Word of God)
- Community walk in Continual obedience (Full obedience, rooted in faith)
PRAYER DOES NOT INCREASE YOUR ANOINTING!
Prayer is what increases the intimacy
Prayer cuts you from the noise of the world and tunes you to the voice of the Holy Spirit. In this process of being connected to the vine, the anointing/power of God flows in through us (the branches). Anointing therefore is only a by product of prayer.
THEN HOW DOES THE ANOINTING INCREASE?
Anointing has been described to work in stages. What I believe is that when a person is anointed by God for the working of miracles, his increase in prayer life does not increase that anointing, but what increases with prayer is his sensitivity to understand God direction, guidance or will for the different situations that he faces. Reading dozens of the chapters of the Bible is not what makes you more anointed, but it increases one’s faith to believe God to function in the anointing God has placed on one’s life. It has always interested me that God called His disciples Apostles even before they planted any church. What is more interesting is that the Judas that betrayed him was also in the company of those that were called as Apostles. Anointing is God’s calling on one’s life. Not something that can be bought. How we respond to that call is on us. That means, your anointing is activated from the call you have received and multiplies according to your levels of faith.
Romans 12: 6. “We have different gifts, according to the grace given to us. If a man’s gift is prophesying, let him use it in proportion to his faith.
Thereby anointing is contagious because faith is contagious. Anointing can be rubbed off, because faith of one man stirs another. So now, go immerse yourself in God and put your faith into action!
1Sa 18:3 Then Jonathan and David made a covenant, because he loved him as his own soul.
