What is the missing key in the church today?
It is all about getting your heart right and being fully led by The Holy Spirit.
The anointing of the Holy Spirit” refers to the special presence and power of the Holy Spirit within a believer, enabling them to understand and apply spiritual Truths, perform acts of service, and discern God’s will, often likened to the practice in the Bible where leaders like kings and priests were set apart by being anointed with oil; essentially, it signifies being set aside for a special purpose by God through the Holy Spirit’s work within them.
The anointing makes you a catalyst for power from Above. This power isn’t given to the immature in Christ but to those who have moved toward maturity.
The following are five Keys to releasing the personal fellowship anointing (chrisma):
- Focus on Jesus
- Acknowledge every good thing in you rather than focusing on your defects
- Desire Spiritual gifts instead of waiting passively for whatever may happen/
- Allow The Holy Spirit to lead you in the daily course of your life
- Enter into reality worship and genuine Holy Spirit-led prayer
The Holy Spirit imparts both fruit and gifts for us to walk in.
Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Galatians chapter 5:
22-23 But the fruit produced by the Holy Spirit within you is Divine Love in all Its varied expressions: joy that overflows, peace that subdues, patience that endures, kindness in action, a life full of virtue, faith that prevails, gentleness of heart, and strength of spirit. Never set the law above these qualities, for they are meant to be limitless.
24 Keep in mind that we who belong to Jesus Christ have already experienced crucifixion. For everything connected with our self-life was put to death on the cross and crucified with Messiah.
25 If the Spirit is the Source of our life, we must also allow the Spirit to direct every aspect of our lives.
26 So may we never be arrogant, or look down on another, for each of us is an original. We must forsake all jealousy that diminishes the value of others.
As we walk in the fruit of The Holy Spirit, the gifts of The Holy Spirit are expressed and given in Love for others.
Paul also wrote by The Holy Spirit in 1st Corinthians chapter 12:
4 It is the same Holy Spirit who continues to distribute many different varieties of gifts.
5 The Lord YAHWEH is One, and He is the One Who apportions to believers different varieties of ministries.
6 The same God distributes different kinds of miracles that accomplish different results through each believer’s gift and ministry as He energizes and activates them.
7 Each believer is given continuous revelation by the Holy Spirit to benefit not just himself but all.
8 For example: The Spirit gives to one the gift of the Word of Wisdom. To another, the same Spirit gives the gift of the Word of revelation knowledge.
9 And to another, the same Spirit gives the gift of faith. And to another, the same Spirit gives gifts of healing.
10 And to another the power to work miracles. And to another the gift of prophecy. And to another the gift to discern what the Spirit is speaking. And to another the gift of speaking different kinds of Tongues. And to another the gift of interpretation of Tongues.
11 Remember, it is the same Holy Spirit Who distributes, activates, and operates these different gifts as He chooses for each believer.
I have personally been in the services where all these gifts were in operation. These are all gifts of Agape Love and without Love, the gifts will not flow. If you don’t walk in Love with all Its attributes, how can you expect to operate in the gifts of The Holy Spirit.
The keys to releasing the anointing (charisma):
- Believing, focusing on Jesus more than believing for the results releases the anointing
- Receive in your spirit, not in your soul
- Release from your spirit, not from your soul
- Only try to feel Love, not power, in your hands (Love in your heart, releases the anointing)
- Always be moved with compassion as Jesus was.
We are now in the midst of a Great Awakening, and I expect to see an outpouring of The Holy Spirit greater than past awakenings and in areas that were previously barren of the ministry of The Holy Spirit.
