• 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, To preach the acceptable year of the Lord. (Luke 4:18-19).

    THE ANOINTING---------2

    WHAT IS THE ANOINTING

    Very few Christians - have true understanding of anointing. What they have been taught may not be exactly right. They probably know that the anointing involves power, that it has something to do with Holy Spirit, and that's about it.
    There is an old saying "a little knowledge is a dangerous thing ". I will attempt to impart as much knowledge regarding the anointing by means of God's Word as well as revelation knowledge.
    The anointing is the manifest presence of God. The word "anointing" means "to rub with oil, especially in order to consecrate something (holy object) or someone (holy person)." The anointing is tangible and when God's presence manifests, something supernatural happens.

    GOD IN CHRIST IN YOU

    God in Christ in You

    John 14:16-20
         And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;
         Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him:  but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.
         I will not leave you comfortless: [orphans] I will come to you.
         Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also.
         At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you.
    Jesus Christ promised his disciples that he would shortly be sending them  another comforter .  The holy spirit which was given on the day of Pentecost was to be another (of like quality to Jesus Christ) comforter.  The holy spirit takes the place of the absent Christ.  Having holy spirit within gives us a direct spiritual connection with God.  By way of the holy spirit we have Christ within us.  By way of Christ in us we have direct access to God.  Holy spirit makes it available for you to have God in Christ in You!

    “Jesus Christ” means “Jesus anointed.” One Sabbath he told us what he is anointed to do: He got up in the synagogue; the attendant gave him the scroll of Isaiah. He found the place where it is written:

    THE PRIESTHOOD----2

    THE PRIESTHOOD

    Christ the Lord, High Priest, “taken from among men” (cfr. Eb 5,1-5), made the new people “a kingdom and priests to God the Father.” (Ap. 1,6; cfr. 5,9-10).
    “Though they differ from one another in essence and not only in degree, the common priesthood of the faithful and the ministerial or hierarchical priesthood are nonetheless interrelated: each of them in its own special way is a participation in the one priesthood of Christ”

    THE PROPHETIC DOUBLE ANOINTING

    The Prophetic Double Anointing

    By joyalministries




     In the book of 2 Kings 2 we read of the powerful “taking up into heaven by a whirlwind” of the Prophet Elijah (v.11). He was a man who ministered in the supernatural power of God like few men have. A younger Elisha had followed and observed closely the life and ministry of the older Elijah, and had obviously been powerfully affected by his life and ministry. This came about as a result of Elisha being Elijah’s servant for a period of time (1 Kings 19:21 ; 2 Kings 3:11 ). He served the man and ministry he admired the most. His position as a servant to the great prophet enabled him to observe his life firsthand. Those observations so impacted Elisha that he strongly desired to have a double portion of all that Elijah had. He would have gleaned so much from Elijah during that time of servant-hood. It did not in any way diminish his “vision” to have a double portion of that man’s spirit. Elisha pursued a growing desire to pattern his life and ministry after that of Elijah – except that Elisha was very bold in desiring a double portion of that which Elijah had. Think of that for a moment. There was no one else around at that time that could come anywhere near to matching the ministry as that of Elijah. Yet Elisha had the audacity to not only desire to be like him, but to have a double portion (twice as much!) of that which Elijah displayed! Some could even have accused Elisha of being brash, erratic, or proud in his desire, but Elisha knew what he wanted, and he went after it (it is recorded that Elijah did eight major miracles and Elisha sixteen, confirming he did indeed minister in a double portion of Elijah’s spirit). And God certainly did not rebuke Elisha for his great desire to have a double portion of Elijah’s spirit – He enabled him to fulfil it!

    THE POWER OF PRAISE AND WORSHIP

                                            THE POWER OF PRAISE AND WORSHIP

    Acts 16:23-26 “And when they had laid many stripes upon them, they cast them into prison, charging the jailor to keep them safely:
    (24) Who, having received such a charge, thrust them into the inner prison, and made their feet fast in the stocks.
    (25) And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them.
    (26) And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and every one’s bands were loosed.”
