ANOINTING – THE STAFF OF OFFICE!
Every crown king are usually accorded with a staff of office which essentially legitimate his authority to act and represent his community. In the same manner spiritually, anointing of the Holy Ghost is an essential aspect as a staff of office to legitimate your authority to act on behalf of God and represent His interest towards His people. Anointing provokes unction to function.
This staff of office called – Anointing, can be access through several ways as we can see through the picture of the scriptures. There are four main channels to access the anointing of God.
1. The anointing in the Word.
God´s WORD is anointed as much as Himself. Always the Spirit of God moves along his word. This is the reason for constant signs and wonders whenever his word are released in faith, thereby generating diverse healing and deliverance to believers. Hear this!
“He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions. Ps 107:20“
“And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written, The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, Luke 4:17-18“
“Seek ye out of the book of the LORD, and read: no one of these shall fail, none shall want her mate: for my mouth it hath commanded, and his spirit it hath gathered them. Isa. 34:16“
2. The Anointing in the name of Jesus
“He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; Mark 16:16-17“
“Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Phil 2:9-11“
“And his name through faith in his name hath made this man strong, whom ye see and know: yea, the faith which is by him hath given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all. Acts 3:16“
“When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. Acts 19:5″
3. The Anointing in the blood of Jesus Christ
“And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death. Rev 12:11; Heb. 9:11-12“
4. The Anointing of the holy ghost on individuals
“How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him. Acts 10:38;
“But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth. Acts 1:8;”
“And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. Acts 2:2-4.“
