Receiving From The Anointing

Our bibles around.

Make Jesus glad, the devil mad.

Let's say this together say heavenly father, I'm glad to be here today.

It's 2022, it's still the very first month, and I'm started off strong.

I Forget those things which are behind and I reach forth under those things which are before and I press.

I press To the mark of the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

Amen, amen, all right, you could be seated, and I want to Put a capstone on the messages we've been preaching about the anointing.

Recently, we had, and we're still having, special Miracle Sunday, and and you know from the standpoint that it's just not every miracle happens Instantly.

A miracle, though, is received, and sometimes it takes time for that miracle to work out, but you receive it the minute you pray it or say it.

Are you with me now?

And so you know, in a little bit we're gonna.

There's some of you weren't here for the service last week and you missed getting your prayer cloth.

Well, we want to take just a little bit of time to give, give you a chance to get your prayer cloth so you can join in with the rest of us.

So we're gonna look at Acts 19 Late last year.

God just put this in my heart.

I Mean he, he wants to pull out all the stops, get us healed every way that he can.

There's so many ways to get healed.

Acts 19, verse 1.

Acts 19:1

And we've been reading these verses.

It came to pass that while it, while a Paulus was at Corinth, paul, having passed through the upper coasts, came to Ephesus and, finding certain disciples, he said unto them have you received the Holy Ghost, since you believe?

Good question to ask anybody.

And and they said unto him, we have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost.

And he said unto them will.

Unto what then?

Were you baptized?

And they said unto John's baptism.

So then Paul said to them John, barely baptized with a baptism of repentance, saying unto the people that they should believe on him, which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus.

So when they heard this, the 12 Men at Ephesus, when they heard this that you know they they'd stop short of the gold Put all their trust in John the Baptist.

John the Baptist is pointing to Jesus.

They, they got saved.

And and so they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus, baptized in water.

Every believer ought to be baptized in water.

And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost Came on them and they spoke with tongues and prophesied.

And the men were about 12, beginning of the church at Ephesus, and it went into the synagogue and spake boldly for the space of three months, disputing and persuading the things concerning the kingdom of God.

But when divers were hardened and and believe not but spoke evil of that way before the multitude, he departed from them and separated the disciples Disputing daily in the school of one to ran us.

And this continued by the space of two years, so that all they which dwelt in Asia, that is, asia Minor, heard the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks or Gentiles.

And God brought special miracles by the hands of Paul, so that from his body were brought under the sick handkerchiefs or aprons and the diseases departed from them and evil spirits went out of them.

And then another verse that we read Acts 10, 38.

This is Peter preaching to Cornelius's house and he says, talking about Jesus how God, verse 38, acts 10, 38, how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed of the devil, for God was with him.

So today I wanted to share a message and title receiving from the anointing.

We're gonna receive communion together in a moment.

It's based on our covenant.

I want to cap off special miracles Sunday.

I want us all to believe.

We receive by faith.

It's not about the cloth, it's not about me, it's not about you know.

It's not about anything except Jesus and his name and the fact that we have a covenant that was cut in his blood.

That's the whole point of communion is to remember his blood, remember his broken body, remember that we are covenant with God Almighty through Jesus.

So we've had a series of messages cooperating with the anointing, leaning on the anointing, valuing the anointing last Sunday, releasing the anointing.

Some of these messages were on Wednesday night, some of these messages on Sunday night.

So there's a whole series of message here today receiving from the anointing.

Everybody say receiving.

Now it's not.

You know, healing has already been released.

You know, if you just thought about, if you just thought about, the electricity's already been generated and it's sitting right there in your home ready for you to turn on the switch.

And when you turn on the switch in your living room, the light comes on.

It's not a matter of the power.

Why?

Because the power has been sitting there all along.

What did you have to do?

Well, you had to turn on the switch.

So it's not a matter of God healing you, it's not a matter of God trying to heal you, gonna heal, you, might heal you.

It's a matter of you turning on the switch of faith and receiving what has already been given.

This cloth is just another way for you to turn on the switch, either for yourself or someone else.

You know, sometimes you can turn the switch on for somebody that doesn't have any faith, especially a relative, a friend.

The closer the relative is, the easier it is for you to get them healed if they don't know what you know.

How many of you figured out that they don't know what you know?

I mean they just they really don't know what you know.

You know Because you're here, you're hearing the truth on a regular basis.

You go to some dead church and never preach his healing.

I mean, you might be a real wonderful Christian, you might have all the fruits of the Spirit, you might be the sweetest thing and everything else, but you can die early and then people will say well, you know, lord just wanted to pick a flower here.

Oh well, the Lord was lonesome.

He just picked Sally Jo because he was lonesome.

No, that's just a bunch of religious claptrap.

If you came to this church, you'd hear the truth and you're gonna hear about healing on a regular basis.

It's a lot easier to do what To receive what belongs to us.

That's my whole job Making sure you receive everything that's been bought and paid for.

So receive.

Everybody say receiving from the anointing See based on our covenant.

And so let's look at John, chapter 16, and see what Jesus said at the Last Supper John 13, 14, 15, 16, 17,.

John 16 · chapter mention

All that was right there in the space of the Last Supper.

These were the last words that Jesus spoke before he went to the cross to cut the covenant.

Oh, there was a lot that had to happen.

He had to die, he had to suffer, he had to die.

He had to go to hell.

Yes, he went to hell.

Don't listen to these doofuses that.

Don't preach that.

Oh, it's blasphemy.

No, it's blasphemy not to believe it.

If we all deserved to go to hell, then he had to go there to pay our price.

And he did pay the price, didn't he?

But he didn't stay there.

He stayed there three days and nights, that's enough.

God said, okay, it's enough, and raised him from the dead.

He was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father.

Some guy back in the 50s said oh, it's not important that you believe in the resurrection, it's vital.

You can't be saved if you don't believe in the resurrection of Lord Jesus Christ Can't be saved.

So that guy wasn't saved by definition.

He's just out there preaching religion and there's more of that now than there's ever been, especially since so many churches closed and it opened the door to false teaching, false people calling themselves ministers when they're not.

Are you with me now?

Oh, it's dangerous out there.

It's like the Wild West.

Well, we got law and order right in here in this church.

Praise God, we're all armed and dangerous.

Amen, amen, yes.

John 16, verse 23.

John 16:23

And he's talking to him.

He said you know, I know you're sorry, I know, you know I'm leaving, and you just don't understand.

In verse 23, he said in that day you shall ask me nothing in that day.

So he's talking about a future day when he's gonna be gone.

He's no longer gonna be in their midst.

He's leaving.

That's what he's telling them.

They're sad.

In my father's house many mansions they say for one or two, I would have told you John, chapter 14, he's trying to comfort them.

John 14 · chapter mention

Oh, I'm gonna send another comforter.

I'm a comforter, but then I'm gonna send another comforter.

So he's telling them about the Holy Spirit.

They don't understand much about the Holy Ghost at all.

So he continues in here in John 16, 23,.

In that day you shall ask me nothing.

Verily, verily, I say unto thee.

Whenever you say verily, verily, that's the double enunciation of God Saul, saul, why persecute us without me?

Amen, and so verily, verily, I mean you can write it down.

This is true, right here.

This is a true statement.

This is cornerstone.

We sang the song cornerstone.

This is cornerstone, right here.

Verily, verily, I say unto you whatsoever you shall ask the Father in my name, he will give it you.

That is probably the most astounding prayer.

Scripture, authority scripture, because the word asked doesn't mean beg, it simply means appropriate.

Yeah, we ask the Father, we pray and ask Him for things.

But really, when you do that, you ought to know what belongs to you.

You don't ask Him for things, just pie in the sky.

You pray to find out what belongs to you.

First, something happens to you and what do you do the first thing you should do if you come to this church.

I teach you this all the time.

You go to the Word and find out what does the Word say about this situation?

You don't start begging God.

No, it's not talking about that kind of begging Ask.

There is not beg.

Ask is a Son of God that is appropriating by faith what they need from the covenant.

You have a blank check.

What if your father had endless supplies of money and he gave you a whole bunch of checks in your checkbook that he signed already?

Is it okay, just whenever you have a need, just fill out the amount the money's there?

Isn't that the same thing that he just got through saying Let me ask you something Does your father in heaven have everything you need?

He's saying appropriate it.

You know the government in Congress.

They sign these appropriation bills.

They're supposed to go by the budget, but they haven't had a budget.

I don't even know how long.

They don't even make a budget.

They just print the money and they go down the list of things that they want to do.

They want to pay for every illegal alien to go to Harvard.

They want to pay their rent from now on.

Never mind you.

You grew up here, you don't count.

They want to take care of all these people that are illegal and, by definition, they are criminals.

Let's call them what they are they're criminals when they come across our border.

That's a criminal act that should be prosecuted.

We're not prosecuting criminals, we're giving them money.

It's creating a huge crime problem, because who wants the money?

Well, the coyotes who represent the drug cartels want that government money.

That's why they're holding these poor people in bondage and putting them in houses or putting them in places, holding them against their will.

Oh, I'm telling you right now that the government policies on our border are human tragedy.

Pastor, you sound like you're, you sound so mean.

No, I'm not mean.

I'm compassionate.

I feel bad for those people.

They're coming into this situation with dollar signs in their eyes.

There ain't going to be no dollar signs for them.

They're going to get.

To be victims is what they're going to have.

They're going to have victimhood created by these crazy people that are in charge temporarily.

But they want to appropriate this money.

They appropriate, they have an appropriation bill.

They get together and they appropriate all this and, depending on who's in control of congressmen, they got these.

Biden had a $5.7 trillion deal he wanted to pass.

It had in it the most.

We wouldn't even have America if that thing had passed, if they had been successful in getting rid of the filibuster in the Senate, we would be living in Cuba.

That's where we'd be right now Cuba.

But he didn't.

He wasn't successful and I believe it's because this church and others like us pray, know how to pray.

You know we're in the Bible to say we ought to pray for a tyrant.

I don't understand these people.

Want to pray for a tyrant, want to pray for a doofus, want to pray for somebody like that?

I can't.

I don't pray for him, I pray against him.

I pray against his policy.

I pray that he fail.

Somebody said oh, let's pray that our president succeed.

No, I don't pray for him success, I pray for his total and utter failure.

Oh good pastor, yeah, well, let's get on the covenant here.

This is what we have.

We have the covenant.

We don't need government to give us things.

Government is supposed to protect our rights, which they're not doing.

So getting back over here, he said in that day, when I leave and you're left alone and you're so worried about it, you're really.

You can't even picture life without me being here.

Why?

Because he supplied every need.

These are 12 apostles that had wives and kids.

They have families.

They left everything.

They left their businesses.

They left their Whatever they were doing some of them were fishermen, others were different business.

They left everything to.

He said follow me.

And they did so.

They had to receive from him all their needs being met.

And now he's fixing to leave.

You know, I'm gonna send another comforter.

Well, that hadn't happened yet.

They're afraid.

Wouldn't you be afraid If, for three and a half years, the one who met your every need was leaving you, wouldn't you wonder?

And he's saying in that day you're not gonna ask me a thing.

Why?

Because I ain't gonna be here.

But let me tell you something, anything and everything you asked my father in my name, he will give it to you.

Oh, how?

Come on, lift your hands right now.

We have such an assurance from heaven.

We have such an assurance from the one who died on that cross, who shed his blood and the broken body was taken down and laid in a borrowed tomb, who rose from the dead.

We have this assurance from his lips.

That's why, when we lay hands on these cloths, it's not just a bunch of pie in the sky, a bunch of bologna.

We've done it.

In whose name?

In his name, in the name of Jesus.

That is who Paul was preaching, and we keep reading there in verse 13.

Seven sons of one, sceva a Jew, who were exorcists.

So these Jews knew that there were people that needed deliverance, so they had a ministry.

I'm not saying their ministry was false.

I'm just saying they got so jealous of how easy it was, so they started using the name of Jesus.

They said in the name of Jesus that Paul preached it Come out of this young man.

So that tells me that Paul was preaching and teaching in that name.

Are you with me now?

So those claws were not in the name of Paul.

Those claws and those handkerchiefs were not in the name of some man.

They were in the name of Jesus.

Those sicknesses were healed.

Why Faith in that name?

Are y'all looking at me kind of stunned?

I want to build your faith because this special miracle Sunday is of no use if you don't believe.

You receive the minute you execute that piece of cloth, in other words the minute you lay it on yourself for yourself or you give it to someone else, and especially if you give it to someone else that has no faith, it doesn't even know you're doing it.

You're doing it kind of on the slide and that's okay.

Sometimes you got to sneak up on some folk.

They just they know me and you can't blame them.

They've heard all this bad stuff about Christians.

They've got some pretty poor examples to look after.

In many cases Some of them have been hurt, some of them have been beat up.

So you got to kind of sneak up on some folk.

Realize that you know they can't blame them sometimes.

Oh, but I tell you what, if your faith is executed, if you've got faith in that name, amen, amen.

So we're covenant people and it's we have to receive.

Let's look at Acts, chapter three.

This is Peter and John and went up to the temple at the hour of prayer and encountered this lame man who'd been there all these decades.

He's a certified beggar by the temple.

You had to be certified to beg, otherwise they'd take you to jail.

But if you were a certified beggar that is someone that was absolutely in need Then you were approved by the temple as meeting the obligation of Jews to give alms.

Giving alms is helping the poor, so you could legally satisfy that requirement of almsgiving by giving to this person who laid daily at the gate, beautiful.

We find out that he was above 40 years old, had never walked, and so we preached on this recently.

And so let's pick it up here.

Acts, chapter three, and this is after Peter, you know, got him healed.

He jerked him up by the hand.

So there's no record of this man having any faith at all.

He's looking for alms, he's expecting to receive money.

That's what he's there for.

He's got.

He depends on Jewish people to help him.

Can't help himself, he can't walk, 40 years old, never walked in his life.

And Peter said silver and gold have I none for you?

It wasn't that he didn't have money.

He said I don't have any money for you.

That's not why I'm here.

I'm here to end your need independence on other people.

In the name of Jesus Christ, of Nathers, rise up and walk.

And when he didn't move fast enough, peter jerked him up by the hand.

No faith, he didn't try to make a move, he didn't do anything.

Peter jerked him up on his feet and instantly strength came into his feet and ankle bones.

He started walking and leaping and praising God, tracked it a crowd, verse 11, and as the lame man which was healed held, peter and John, all the people ran together under them in the porch that is called Solomon's, greatly wondering.

And when Peter saw it, he answered under the people you, men of Israel, why marveled you at this?

Or why look you so earnestly on us, as though, by our own power or holiness, we had made this man to walk?

Then he started talking about them crucifying Jesus.

He started using the name of Jesus and then, in verse 16, he tells them how this happened.

And his name, that is the name of Jesus, through faith in his name, has made this man strong, whom you see and know.

Yay, the faith which is by him have given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all.

Everybody say perfect soundness.

I just think about these claws being laid on yourself, being laid on your loved ones, even people that don't even know what's going on.

And your faith in Jesus, your faith in that name, oh, glory to God.

I said your faith in that name can bring soundness that medical science can't offer anybody.

I'm not talking about just getting healed, I'm talking about having soundness.

I'm talking about, I mean, this man crippled for 40 years, no telling how many associated other infirmities he had because of the fact that he couldn't walk.

I mean, we don't know, we're not acquainted, but he was made perfectly whole and sound just in an instant of time, walking and leaping and praising God.

How does he even know how to leap?

How does he know how to walk if he's never walked?

How can he jump up in the air?

How can it?

Wouldn't all of his muscles have shriveled, wouldn't he?

I mean, wouldn't his legs be small and little bitty and all that, all of that stuff.

He was made perfectly whole, perfect soundness.

Are y'all with me now?

And how?

Faith in the name of Jesus.

So we need to receive.

We need to receive at some point.

You know, if we don't receive what God has done, this can hold things up.

And how do we receive?

By faith?

Mark 11, 24,.

Jesus said, therefore, what things so ever you desire when you pray, believe that you've received them and you shall have them.

So there's a moment of receiving and the shall having then comes, sometimes instantly, but many times later.

But when did you receive later?

No, when you prayed, or when you said, or when you asked.

The word asked there in John 16,.

Hitherto you've not asked me anything in my name, barely very life, saying to you whatsoever.

You shall ask the Father in my name, he shall give it.

You that word ask.

It means exactly what it says ask, or it means to appropriate.

It means to require.

It means to make a demand.

I don't mean a demand like slam your hand on the table and God I demand.

You're not making a demand on God, you're making a demand on the covenant that Jesus cut.

Are y'all with me now?

I've said this many times, preached it many times, but I want us to all be on the same page, because we are covenant people and we have exclusive rights to use that name.

The sons of Sceva proves that they don't have the right.

They had a covenant with God, but they couldn't use the name of Jesus.

Well, why didn't Jesus never use these names?

He didn't use his name.

He's Jesus.

Nobody used the name of Jesus in the gospels.

Why?

Because Jesus was there.

No need to use his name.

The name was given at his departure.

Are you with me?

So when we use that name, it's not like open sesame or some kind of code word, it's the name.

The word of God is all in the name of Jesus.

Your name shall be called the word of God.

Everything that's in the word is in the name.

Everything's at our covenants in the name.

It's the key.

I am the key that unlocks the door the name of Jesus.

I'm the alpha and the omega.

Jesus, I'm telling.

The name of Jesus is the beginning, it's the ending.

It's the beginning of our miracle, the end of the devil's problems that he sent you.

Come on, let's lift our hands right now.

So receiving from the anointing.

What is the God?

Anointing is just another word for power.

The anointing is God's power.

That's available, just sitting here in this cloth.

Now, why do you say that, pastor?

Because I laid my hands and Gladys laid her hands and we gave faith in our heart, and I know what went in there.

I'm not wondering about it.

I'm not thinking about it.

I'm not hoping about it.

I know it's there and I pray that we're in agreement on that matter.

I pray that you agree that that cloth contains this power source.

Now, really, that power source is everywhere present, but some folks, you know, it's like a strawberry shortcut, it's like fast forward.

Remember, the old tape player used to have a fast forward.

You know, you're listening along.

That's not the part I want Bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop and then let off on the fast forward.

But I missed the fast forward, but I'm not sure A little harder on the CD.

I don't know, I'm still trying to fit in.

Cds are out now.

So now they've got the little you know thumb drives.

I'm sure they don't know how to operate those.

They don't have the same features as the good old cassette tape, this cassette tape.

Bring back the cassette tape please, for those of us that are not that IT conscious.

So the power sources in this cloth, when we lay it on someone, it's in contact with that person, just as if you're laying your hands on them, or I'm laying my hands on you or you're, or whatever.

I mean.

It's just, it's an extension.

I said it's an extension and just the idea that you have this cloth for yourself or for someone else.

It's a point of contact and every time you see it and you know it's there, you just thank God.

Oh, thank God, I'm healed.

Glory to God.

I remember when that's how I believed.

I received that day.

I'm glory to God, I'm healed, hallelujah.

I'm not trying to get it.

Jesus got it for me.

Thank you, lord, and you shall have it.

The shall have is on its way faster.

I said the shall have is on its way faster, Hallelujah.

So the anointing believers are covenant people.

We have exclusive right to use the name of Jesus.

We're anointed to speak.

He preached.

You don't have to call what you do preaching.

Preaching just means declare, that's all.

It means you inform people what you know.

That's preaching really.

When you share truth in the name of Jesus, that's anointed.

The words are anointed.

You don't even have to say it out loud to the person.

I wouldn't suggest that.

What I'm gonna share with you, I share with you in the name of Jesus.

Brother, you know, let's not be so religious, but know it in your heart.

I've known this.

Sometimes I start talking to somebody and I'm conscious of the fact I'm talking in his name and I can just.

I just have a perception that my words are knocking demons off of people.

It's piercing their heart and truth is penetrating in there where there's been unbelief.

Are you with me now?

So we speak in the name of Jesus.

We're anointed to minister in the name of Jesus.

We're anointed to lay hands in the name of Jesus.

We're anointed to rebuke the devil.

In the name of Jesus.

We have exclusive use of his name and when we pray and ask or require, or you make a demand on our covenant to the Father, in that name, he will give it to us.

Hallelujah, glory to God.

It's that name, through faith in that name.

Brother Hagin tells of the story, talking about receiving.

Now he tells of the story that he was in 1950.

He was preaching in a church and a woman came up in a wheelchair with her daughter in her lap and they both had polio.

This you know, they hadn't had.

The salt vaccine wasn't discovered yet.

So polio was rampant in our nation, really all over the world, and it was a ravaging disease and if you survived it, many times you were crippled or you were paralyzed.

And that's what had happened to this woman and her daughter.

And so Brother Hagin laid hands on them and the little daughter crawled down out of her mother's lap and ran all over the church.

I mean instantly healed, instantly, just like that Boom, and the mother was filled with the holy ghost and began to speak in other tongues, lifted her hands and she said I'm going to pray another time.

And I mean the church after it quieted down because everybody was just shouting at this miracle.

And he said to the lady in the wheelchair said, sister, you can receive your healing just as easily as you received the baptism and the holy ghost.

And she says, oh, I can't believe that.

I can't believe it's that easy to receive my healing.

So she went home in a wheelchair, her daughter was healed and she wasn't Because she couldn't receive.

Why couldn't she receive?

See, because she wasn't highly probably went to a dead church.

She probably went to a denominational church, never preached healing and she was just exposed here.

This child was instantly healed.

Why?

Because children are just not going to reason their way out of a miracle.

I mean, there's no big hangups in their brain.

But this woman had plenty of hangups.

How many hangups have you got?

We all have them.

We all have an experience sometimes that can cause our reason to kick in and make it seem harder to receive for our particular.

Well, this is a different, this is a tougher situation.

What I'm facing.

The only three people in the whole world have what I have.

I've had people tell me that I've got something so rare.

Nobody else has it.

Well, I don't care.

Name of Jesus, it's nothing but a fly.

Just flick it off of you, the bigger you magnify some stupid disease from the devil.

See, that tells me that you're not ready to receive.

So let's get ready, let's get our receivers tuned in so that, when we pray, we believe we receive, and we shall have.

When do we believe we receive?

When we have it?

No, when we ask, when we pray, when we make the demand, when we require amen, y'all getting the hold of this.

I know I preached it many times before, but we need a refresher course.

We're about to receive communion and we're gonna top this all off.

Amen, and I'm expecting miracles.

Oh, how many of you need one?

How many of you need I mean, you need a healing miracle?

How many of you would be really nice to have one?

See, it's a difference when being nice to have one and absolutely have to have one.

Now, let's not wait till we absolutely have to have one before we get one.

Amen, amen.

So prayer class have gone out.

They've been released in the name of Jesus.

They were laid on folks including yourself, and let's mix faith with what we have done.
