You can search the books and find them. These are pretty easy to share with you, but much more difficult to get into. Take a look at this short article if you want to know how to increase your anointing.
First secret … Time dedicated to prayer every day.
I have met two Apostles in my life and they both spent a great deal of time in prayer. One of them stayed in my two-bedroom apartment for six weeks. I used to get up during the night to go to the bathroom and I would listen to him pray to the Lord for hours on end every night. Sometimes I would get up twice in three hours and in silence in his room he was in fervent prayer.
Another apostle I met told us that anything less than two hours a day at the Lord’s feet is useless if you want an anointing that has Power. It is easy to say, but sometimes it is very difficult to do.
Second secret … Time dedicated to the Word of God
One of the apostles told me that an hour in the Word each day is just a maintenance dose for his personal life. He said that if you want the anointing to preach and you want to receive the fresh Word, you need an hour for your personal life and extra hours to receive the messages that the Lord wants you to preach.
The two Holy Apostles that I met have Bibles that have many marks, underlines, and notes on each page of their Bible. They also had extensive knowledge of what the Bible said. An apostle says that he needs a new Bible every four years, since by then he is using it up.
Many Christians have Bibles that are on a shelf, and many of them don’t even bring God’s Word to church.
Third Secret … Fasting Brings a Stronger Anointing
One of the apostles I met said that in Asia he preaches up to seven different sermons on Sundays. He said that in order to have the anointing to do seven sermons, he had to fast, pray, and be in God’s Word all Saturday night.
This Apostle also knew how to tell people to fast for three of the four days in which he was going to do the deliverance. Not only did he fast, but he also fasted people who had a demonic presence in his life. Fasting of both the Apostle and the person with the demon ensures that the demon will come out safely.
Secret Room … Get busy doing something for the Lord, which will need an anointing to
I heard a great teacher on the anointing say what it was very easily. He said the anointing is simply THE POWER TO DO THE JOB. If you are not doing anything in ministry that needs a strong anointing, then the Holy Spirit will have no reason to give you one.
Sure you can walk every day in the presence of the Lord, through praise and worship, prayer and time in the Word, but an anointing to minister to people comes when you are needed to minister to people.
There are many things a person can do for the Lord. God would give you a stronger anointing if you wanted to share the truths of God’s Word online in this way. If you spent time with the Lord every day and are gifted in the area of preaching, then you can write articles that will keep people reading until they finish.
It is difficult to read the teachings of people without a strong anointing. Any preacher can have a weak anointing by neglecting these four things in His life. A pastor can be so busy that he does not have time to seek the feet of the Lord. When a pastor is not operating in the Power of the Anointing, not only will his sermons be powerless, but the pastor finds his job difficult to do.
So brothers and sisters, go and seek God’s superior anointing and get busy in the work of the ministry.
Be blessed
