THE HIDING PLACE OF THE ANOINTING

Sometimes the anointing we are looking for, God hides it for us in strange places. We think we will find it in prayer but it is not there.


Then we add fasting to it, still it seems to elude us and then we try the word, still we can't find it.


Sometimes, it is in serving in strange places that does not look like it at all that you will encounter the anointing you need to fulfil your own destiny.


God can tell you serve this old widow till the day of her death. Ruth served Naomi and encountered her destiny.


Naomi looked like the most unlikely person to carry the anointing that Ruth needs as a very young widow to fulfil her destiny, Ruth 3:1-6. Thank God for discernment on Ruth's part.


Sometimes that anointing is not on the pulpit as you preach but in washing the chairs that others sit on.


Moses served Jethro a midianite priest not a Jewish priest and there he encountered the anointing he needed to do destiny.


Joseph served the most seemingly unlikely people, Potiphar, the Warder in the prison e.t.c.


The anointong that would make him the deliverer that God has called him in destiny is not in his fathers house but in Egypt while serving the most unlikely men, Genesis 39:22.


It was as David was following the sheep and rescuing them from lions and bear that he encountered the anointing that would later make him a king.


God found him and chose him while he was following the sheep not human beings and went to disclose his identity to Samuel, Psalm 89:20.


It is a waste of time looking for a man of God to anoint you with oil when God has not found you.


God chose David by how he served those sheep and cattle. That tells me God can disqualify a man by how he served the animals in his house.


What is your qualifying test? Where has God hid the anointing you need for your destiny? It may be in the most unlikely places.


You can be chosen or disqualified by how you serve your children, your boss at work, your husband or wife, your man of God.


Some serve their Pastors but maltreat their spouses and children and never encounter the anointing they are fervently looking for because they did not realize the anointing has a hiding place. It is not everywhere. 


It may not be with your pastor but with your parents, it may not be with your parents but with your boss. It may not be with your boss but with your mother in law. It may not be with your mother in law but with your Pastor..


Moses served a midianite priest not a Jewish priest, Exodus 2:16-20. Joseph served Potiphar and the Prison warder not his father or brothers, Genesis 39:2, , 22&23.


If Elisha had studied the Pentatuch and the Torah back to back he would still not have encountered the anointing he needed for his destiny to happen.


If he had prayed and fasted 40 days dry back to back he still would not have encountered it.


God hid the anointing for his destiny in the place of service, serving his master.  Elisha the servant of Elijah that poured water on the hands of Elijah, 2Kings 3:11


Not Elisha the son of prophet that prayed 40days and night and read the bible back to back 6times in a year.


Where has God hiden the anointing for your destiny? Ask him! Don't just go about seeking it your own way, ask Him to show you, Isaiah 53:6a, Proverbs 1:31.


Gordon Lindsay encountered the healing anointing as he was busy, faithfully writing the accounts of the healing taking place through the hands of the healing ministers during the healing revival of the 70's and 80's.


He was not part of them from the onset but he was numbered among them later.


How? He found the place where God has hid the anointing for his destiny. Where? As he faithfully report the account of the healings; that anointing fell on him too......in the place of service.


Serve your way into the anointing and when you are anointed it is to the end that you might continue serving, Mark 10:45, Luke 22:26 .


God anointed Jesus with Holy Ghost and with power and *HE WENT ABOUT* doing good...., Acts 10:38a. Now, that is service.


As good and spiritual and scriptural some things are it does not negate the place of asking, Matthew 7:7.


After you have done all these things(fasting, praying, studying the Word ) and you still can't find the anointing for your destiny, ask the Lord to show you where he has hidden for you the anointing you need for your destiny.


When He shows you what you must do, then do it with all your might, John 2:5, Luke 10:27. But make sure you are not running without the anointing.


PRAYER: FATHER, OPEN MY EYES TO SEE WHERE YOU HAVE HIDDEN THE ANOINTING FOR MY DESTINY.  I PROMISE TO BE FAITHFUL.


SALVATION PRAYER


Anything short of you being born again and living a life of holiness and purity hurt Jesus so much. But you can make things right here and now by saying this simple prayer and mean it genuinely from your heart:


 Lord Jesus I come to you today. I acknowledge that I am a sinner and I cannot help myself. I repent of all my sins and I forsake them. Jesus, I invite you into my life, be my Lord, be my Saviour. 


Wash me by your precious blood, forgive my sins and write my name in the book of life. From this day, I promise to follow you all the rest of my life. Help me Lord, in Jesus name, Amen. Congratulations you are now born again!


PEACE

LESSONS FROM THE SHIPWRECK  Acts 27&28 Sometimes God brings about deliverance painfully slow. He seems to take all His time. It is because what God wants you to get out of that situation is far more than just being delivered.  Sometimes what you come out with is not just the testimony of deliverance or promotion, an anointing comes upon you on the other side of it.  It is not just an affliction, it is also your test. So instead of God bringing you out at once, He makes you walk through the length and breath of the situation and then brings you out on the other side. If you can get and sustain God's perspective on any situation the problem is 50% solved.  You can't enter the house of a strong man and spoil his goods without first binding the strong man, Mark 3;27 You are a strong man and satan cannot spoil your goods without first binding you and his first weapon for binding people is fear.  He uses fear to paralyze people. It is his chiefest weapon, Hebrews 2:15 If God can

THEY THAT BE PLANTED Psalm 92:13&14 Sometimes in life we hurry and move from place to place only to find out we have never really left one spot.  But atimes we remain in one physical location for long, only to find out that we have reached the world even from that one spot.  The Bible talks about being planted in one spot and from that spot the shadow of your branches will spread and cover the hills and mountains and you will spread your boughs and root to the seas and rivers, Psalm 80:8-11. The blessings of God are not place dependent they are His will dependent.  People keep making that mistake over and over again and till tomorrow they will keep making it but you can exempt yourself from that statistics. You cam be in one spot and kings of the earth will come and meet you in that one spot and bring you out, that is the description of a man God is working it.  People will seek out the grace from wherever it is hiding whether in the wilderness, desert or bush.  They remain at thei

GAINING MASTERY OVER CHANGES IN TIMES AND SEASONS Genesis 8:22 Spiritual seasons comes to an end as well as Natural seasons. One thing you must learn early in your walk with God is flexibility. Flexibility and alignment goes hand in hand. This is why...... God is dynamic (John 3:8), life is dynamic and we should also be dynamic.  Seasons change but a Christian that will live above the changing times and seasons is the one that has the flexibility to be evolving above the demands of the times and seasons.  God doesn't change but He moves and his strategies and methods change from time to time to match the changes in times and seasons.  That you are moving doesn't mean you are changing. Change and movement are two different things entirely.  In the minds of many it means the same thing especially where God is concerned.  Sometimes the changes in times and seasons are caused by demonic orchestrations and marshalled as attack against our spiritual life, Exodus 5:7 The victory lies
