CHRISTIANS WHO BREAK THE ANOINTING OF GOD?

CHRISTIANS WHO BREAK THE ANOINTING OF GOD?
Thomas Ong

Often, we hear Christians using the authority given to break the power of enemy. However, don’t you know that as a Christian, we can break the anointing of God? When a certain anointing come upon worship service, the pre-plan or budgeted time for the worship might be disturbed, the Lord might use certain songs to release His anointing to his people. As a worship leader should be sensitive to certain songs, which carry a strong anointing, the worship leader should ask people to be still and stand in the awesome presence of God or to sing it over and over again to let the Spirit take over and wait on the Spirit. The Lord may release his healing, prophetic or intercessory anointing upon his people at any time. If we are not sensitive to the Holy Spirit, God will not move in the service and the preacher will continue to speak his well-prepared message without fulfilling God’s purpose in that particular moment. The anointing will be CUT OFF immediately as we are running on our own program or agenda. By the way, worship is for God and God alone.

We are called to be a worshipper of God and minister to Him in Spirit and in Truth.

Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews. But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. Joh 4:22-23 Kjv

We must be spiritual in order to connect to God, because God is Spirit.

God is a Spirit: and they that worship him MUST worship him in spirit and in truth. Joh 4:24 KJV


Of course the natural man does not accept the things of the Spirit, for them spiritual things are foolish and lead them nowhere.

These things God has revealed to us through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches everything, even the depths of God. For who knows a person's thoughts except the spirit of that person, which is in him? So also no one comprehends the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. Now we have received not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might understand the things freely given us by God. And we impart this in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by the Spirit, interpreting spiritual truths to those who are spiritual. The natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are folly to him, and he is not able to understand them because they are spiritually discerned. The spiritual person judges all things, but is himself to be judged by no one. "For who has understood the mind of the Lord so as to instruct him?" But we have the mind of Christ. (1Co 2:10-16 ESV)


Those who are not in the Spirit will be busy with their own activities, programs or agendas who think that they are serving God, yet they feel very troubled with those who just sit at the feet of Jesus to worship and adore God, and be still, just to listen what God said. But what God have to say for those people?

Now as they went on their way, Jesus entered a village. And a woman named Martha welcomed him into her house. And she had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord's feet and listened to his teaching. But Martha was distracted with much serving. And she went up to him and said, "Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Tell her then to help me." But the Lord answered her, "Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things, but one thing is necessary. Mary has CHOSEN the GOOD PORTION, which will not be taken away from her." Luk 10:38-42 ESV

Jesus was teaching Martha that Mary has chosen the right things. Just sit at the feet of Jesus, worship and adore him, listen what is the He said.

hm...圣灵是叫人得平安,温柔,稳定的灵,并不叫人丧失自己。

i believe the true anointing of God is not limit by space, time & boundary.

The anointing of God is continueos, and gentle.

It is uninterruptable by any force.

How u know when an anointing start n when it end?

Physical expression? God anointing is beyond that i think. It reveal in our daily life.

Worship session shall serve as 1 of the gateway, n shall be conduct accordingly within given time.

Those who want to stay behind n enjoy can do so, those who want to leave also can do so.
