four keys that are responsible for spiritual empowerment you want to encounter the anointing there are four keys four demands and then i will now teach you how to receive are you ready number one consecration and intimacy with god the first requirement if it is genuine power you want the power of consecration an intimacy with god first john chapter 2 please from verse 15. please hurry up hurry up first john love not the world neither the things that are in the world can you imagine that to receive the power that gives you everything you need to lose the passion for everything that is in the world love not the world neither the things that are in the world if any man love the world the love of the father is not in him 16 for all that is in the world the lust of the flesh the loss of the eyes the pride of life is not of the father bodies of the world now look at this kind of look at this thing now it says love not the world is the word eros many theologians and many people have mistaken this to mean don't love prosperity don't love increase that's not what the bible is teaching the word love is the word eros that means an ungodly affinity an attachment towards things that takes the place of christ in your life are you getting the point now god is not against us prospering god is not against us having influence what he's against is exalting those things and having an obsession that it dethrones christ in your life any kind of money that jesus must be dethroned for you to have it is useless any kind of lifting that jesus must be dethroned for you to have it is useless anything god gives satan will try to give it to you too but the condition is bow down and worship me that was what he brought to jesus the three hebrew boys remember satan is obsessed with worship transgenerational allegiance do you know the reason why god cannot trust many people with his anointing is because they are not set apart to look beyond themselves and to see jesus lifted i think he was in lagos or so i was teaching was it yesterday now or day before yesterday and i was telling them i said you know not every closed door is demonic there are certain doors is god that closes by himself as an act of his mercy because he has weighed you and found out that if that door is opened the the existence of the flesh within you there are people no matter how they fast and pray for the prophetic they will not receive that grace do you know why because if you actually receive the creative dimension of the prophetic in anger you will cause and kill people because you are angry you will kill more dead bodies you will be cooperating with satan because of anger so god would rather withdraw it until that intimacy with the holy spirit and that transformation is there there are many people including preachers there are certain anointings if god gives you today you will not pray again why would you pray when people would travel from several nations and will pay everything to come and meet the great man of god apostle joshua salman what do you need prayer for again what do you need fasting for again can i tell you this if it is the anointing you want to receive is more than your money you can drop your seed and god says nonsense carry your money and go away it is your heart i'm looking for prayer and fasting is important but let me tell you before your prayer and fasting will make sense and have value in the spirit your heart condition must be right the desire and the desperation to see jesus revealed and glorified in your life do you know you always hear me give this example imagine that god opens your eyes to the prophetic and a millionaire or billionaire billionaires are all over your church or your ministry you literally can look at them and god opens your eyes and you see what they have in their account you've already bought sharp sand to build your house and you are limited there's there's no money you've calculated everything your engineer has told you 300 million will build a solid structure for you and the people trust you that's when you know whether you are saved or not because one spectacular prophetic word and you see human beings when they trust you they become vulnerable to you sincerely you can tell someone look you have 1 billion 250 000. ah yes that's true oh yeah the other part i won't touch the one billion but that other slice give on to caesar you can twist anything and just because you are talking and the person is falling while you are talking does not mean it is god that is behind it you see i told you that you can't misuse the anointing there is a level of charismatism that the anointing brings there is an aura is a fragrance it can attract everything to you that is the reason why people have to be dead to self are we together consecration and intimacy proverbs 23 and verse 26 this has become an end time in my life and i'm praying that someone will finally get that revelation please look up my son give me mine give me dime many people are giving god offerings many people are giving god pulpit god does not want to put it he's not looking for your offering your tithe all of those things are secondary let me tell you sincerely if you want power with god coinonia hear me what god wants is your heart i can tell you by the authority of scripture by the privilege of learning from the fathers and by my own experience if you are genuinely anointed genuinely anointed of god there is almost a godlike worship that people can bring around you because of the all-surpassing manifestation of the excellency of god in your life even you sometimes you will look at yourself and say my god who am i i know what the anointing can do believe me and if you are not broken before god and especially our generation of ministers small grace yes small anointing and that's it you see people misbehaving all around with the anointing small prophetic small apostolic and all kinds of things and god just withdraws the more he wants to give you because when god tests you with it you are rude you are lawless you are in discipline you are you are you are rebellious you don't have any regard for authority god says no this little we've given this guy let's leave it there if we multiply this anointing you will kill everybody it means people will start kneeling down lick your shoe worship you call you king of kings then they'll receive healing and go another person will do that kind of thing go and read the stories of people i'm not being sarcastic who did not allow god to walk on their hearts preachers let me encourage you co-labor us in the gospel let's be careful how we impart graces on people just because people are committed and their hearts are open does not mean they are prepared let god fix them so that you do not anoint people who will be a casualty to you and others history has taught us a lesson anointing people unprepared will always lead to casualty we are all students in the school of the spirit don't get me wrong it's like carrying your car and giving your 12 or 13 year old child the way children are brilliant now one can even drive with his eyes closed children have mastered the art of surprising everybody but the chances are excellent that that child he will most likely be the only one with that car among his contemporaries and his pride not incompetence that will kill that child do you know what it means to carry the grace that grants you access to the destinies the loyalty the finances of people it was a father in the lord baba adeboye who made a statement one time and he said by the grace of god if he needs a today by the privilege of the influence god has given him he can make one statement and say brethren i need a shirt and he said literally without exaggeration his size can finish in the market because everyone wants to point do you know what it means to have that level of influence don't tell me i will be fine are you saying while god walks on our hearts you can speak to someone and say in the name of jesus christ may the lord lift you and in two weeks he comes back he has become a billionaire and the person comes to you as a billionaire and say man of god i'm still your boy yo good news to the air of a preacher a billionaire is your boy are you learning tonight while you are laughing please make sure you understand what i'm saying god demands death to the flesh if you must carry genuine power billionaire is your boy and cancer it looks like you are not happy is there any problem what can i do for you and satan comes to stand by you and says is this how you are going to allow remember your childhood remember how you suffered now is your chance and yet the spirit of god tells you do not touch one naira from that man rather so into his life and bless him and you say i reject that spirit that that the spirit that is not an economist to use your brain and know that this will flow from i mean can you be so anointed that god places you in the midst of greatness and you still have self-control there are many wealthy people today who run away from churches respectfully speaking because they won't let them rest once the preacher is preaching he's looking at everybody but they know who he's talking to and the people say please it's not a cause to be blessed that's why most people don't testify because they know it's a risk oh this is what god has done we just floated two aircrafts i mean one estate and all of that and the preacher is clapping and the man knows exactly what that club means see i i made a vow and a covenant that by the privilege of god's grace i'm not saying it by the strength of the flesh this ministry will never inconvenience anybody because of tea and bread if god will not provide the wisdom to fund this assignment i will honorably go back home and sit down it's better to sit down not do ministry but have your integrity are we together now consecration and intimacy with god number two what is the second key that governs the manifestation of the anointing in your life or not to the word of god if you do not live by the principles of the kingdom or not to the word of god if you do not live by the principles of the kingdom you will never access the anointing please write it very quickly honor to the word of god in proverbs 23 verse 22 the b part where we just read he said my son give me thine heart proverbs 23 26 it says and let your ears your eyes observe my ways john chapter 1 and verse 3.
john chapter 1 and verse 3 he says and without him the word all things were made by the word and without him the word was not anything made that was made are we together even the power of god hides in his word habakkuk chapter three to become an anthem here to habakkuk chapter three will start from verse three and four god came from daman and the holy one from mount paron his glory covered the heavens and the earth was full of his praise verse four i wish we could have us fall in amplified otherwise no problem he says and his brightness was as the light it says ray streamed from his hand and there in that sun-like splendor was the hiding place of his power there is a relationship between the word of god and the power of god the second key is honor to the word of god i submit to you that i have a problem with people who manifest power and i cannot see in their lives or not for the word of god and the principles of the kingdom if you manifest power and you do not have honor for the word of god you deserve to be suspected are we together because it's like seeing somebody with a child who you never saw pregnancy are we together your stomach was as flat as my own and then immediately you just dragged it no we have a right to say whose child is this and it's not maybe surrogacy or anything you say it's my child i was pregnant we need to examine that kind of pregnancy that's how the world is and miracles on the supernatural if you do not have honor to the word of god we look at your life and we do not see that you understand the word of god believe me do not blame people if they suspect the manifestations that come through your life the word of god gives credence to the outworkings of his power in your life are we together number three what is the third key that controls spiritual empowerment prayer with fasting for me it's not just prayer and fasting it is prayer with fasting the emphasis is prayer the fasting is an accelerator prayer with fasting luke chapter 4 very quickly we'll look at verse 1 and 2 then we'll go to 14 and 15. luke chapter two luke chapter four one and two the bible talks about jesus being full of the holy ghost so he was full of the holy ghost he returned from jordan and he was led by the spirit into the wilderness verse 2 it says being 40 days tempted of the devil and the bible says in those days he did eat nothing and when they were ended he was afterwards hungry let's jump for the sake of time to verse 14 you know his temptation the three temptations and all of that and the bible says jesus returned in the power of the spirit into galilee and there went about a fame all the regions around about 15. it says and he taught in their synagogues been glorified of all if you want to work in genuine spiritual power the facilitator of the anointing is prayer with fasting there is nobody i know who genuinely commands the supernatural who is not a student of prayer with fasting there are wrong fasts there are religious prayers and fasting that does not carry any power it's just a show of religiosity with no it's just for health benefits but there is the kind of fast god has commanded and then according to james chapter 5 there is the effectual fervent prayer of the righteous man that avails much improv he has tremendous power dynamic in its working amplified says right for reference james 5 from verse 13 to 18 james 5 13 to 18.
are we together the last now the last key are you ready the last key is impartation impartation you want to access spiritual empowerment you want to access the anointing you need impartation what is impartation a system of transference of spiritual possibilities impartation is a way to transfer the power of god to transfer the possibilities that are in the christ through the holy spirit to you now here's where i want you to pay attention because we are wrapping up now commanding the supernatural part two we're examining the dynamics of the anointing the necessity for the anointing are two principal platforms for impartation i want you to learn this now there are two principal platforms for impartation number one you can have an impartation directly from god impartation directly from god an example of this we see is first kings first kings chapter three when we begin our reading from verse 3 first kings chapter 3 from verse 3 down to 13 write it for reference please first kings 3 from verse 3 to 13 this was an encounter that solomon had with god he received the impartation of the grace and the anointing for understanding and wisdom directly from god solomon loved the lord walking in the statutes of his of david his father only he sacrificed and burned incense in high places the king went to gibeon and sacrificed there and he offered the sacrifice upon the altar verse 5.
