“And he said unto him, Behold now, there is in this city a man of God, and he is an honourable man; all that he saith cometh surely to pass: now let us go thither; peradventure he can shew us our way that we should go.” I Samuel 9:6
You can make it possible that it could be said about the city you live in that there is in your city a man or woman of God who is honorable.
“Then went he down, and dipped himself seven times in Jordan, according to the saying of the man of God: and his flesh came again like unto the flesh of a little child, and he was clean. 15And he returned to the man of God, he and all his company, and came, and stood before him: and he said, Behold, now I know that there is no God in all the earth, but in Israel: now therefore, I pray thee, take a blessing of thy servant.” II Ki. 5:14-15
Too often the church decides if the final outcome of something is good only if people are blessed by it. However, there is no greater outcome of a matter than when God is glorified and when men will say, “now I know there is no God in all the earth, but in Israel” (the church). Naaman did get healed, but God received the glory.
“Now he which stablisheth us with you in Christ, and hath anointed us, is God;” II Cor. 1:21
The anointing is like any other attribute, quality and fruit of God; it must grow. It is not one dose and you’re ready to go. You may be ready to go for that moment, but like I said in an earlier comment, the anointing must be maintained and we must realize that anointing grows in the true man and woman of God.
