Crocodiles amazing creatures.

Eviana:
You defnitely seem sincere in your love for Christ.
I have read some of your threads that confirm that.
I ask this question sincerely and truly wanting to know, because I have never (in my entire life of Christianity) attended a church--and I've attended many-- where this type of process has occured.

I am 1000 percent sure of my relationship with Christ.
There is 0 percent doubt about it. No one has ever touched hands on me either for me to feel assured of His ownership of my life.

What is the definition of "anointing" as it applies to pastors? Also how do some get it and some don't? I don't understand the different levels. Why do people need to fall down as a result of an anointed person touching them? Where is the biblical example of this?

I am not trying to mock nor be sarcastic.
I really want to understand.

Revelation 1
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
¹⁴ His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;

¹⁵ And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters.

¹⁶ And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength.

¹⁷ And when I saw him, I FELL AT HIS FEET AS DEAD ...



When John saw the glory of Jesus, he was so overwhelmed, he fell as a dead man at his feet.

The anointing is simply the manifestation of the glory of God or the glorious presence of God by the Holy Spirit and God's Word.

Like the apostle John, people fall under the anointing when there is an intense manifestation of God's glorious presence.

The glory of God overwhelms our spirits, no man can stand God's presence without any reaction. Even angels shield their eyes in God's presence.

The glory or manifested presence of God is immeasurable. The more you spend time in God's presence, reading God's WORD, fasting and praying, the more the anointing is increased upon you.

You can be so heavily anointed, anyone you touch will be healed and delivered.

DontBullshitMe:
Women are in marriage for money.

Sadly but true. But not all though.

graceilina:
are you serious? I hope so

Seriously. There are levels of anointing, just as they are levels of electricity.

Different men of God are anointed with different levels of anointing.

Some men of God can be so heavily anointed, just a wave of the hands and people fall like feathers under the power.

However, holiness is the key to entering heaven o.

graceilina:
Since I was born, I have never fallen under the annointing before. Even when they are laying hands, people start falling or screaming. But if they touch me from now till tomorrow, I won't shake. Does it mean that I'm not possessed or what could be the issue? I really desire to have that feeling too. What can I do?

Let a heavily anointed Man of God lay hands on you, you will fall like an iroko tree

But seriously, the anointing is so powerful and impacts the spirit man powerfully, that's why people fall under the power.

I guess you haven't come in contact with a man that carries heavyweight anointing like pastor Adeboye

We should never underestimate the God factor notwithstanding the situations we find ourselves in life.

Nothing is hopeless, irredeemable or impossible with Him.

Sad loss of such a young man in ministry

But then, if you keep having dreams of people who are dead in your dreams, (especially your parents) it means the spirit of death is after you.

God always warns us ahead of time.

This is a fairly long but important message, please read it carefully.

And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.
— Matthew 10:36

And David said to Abishai, and to all his servants, Behold, my son, which came forth of my bowels, seeketh my life...
— 2 Samuel 16:11

The subject of household enemies is as old as creation itself. It all started with Cain killing his own blood brother Abel out of envy. (Genesis 4:1-

The subject of household enemies is a foundational issue that affects virtually every family on earth. There is hardly any family related with blood that doesn't have at least one agent of the devil active in their midst.

The major function of household enemies is to destroy destinies. We see this with the devil manipulating Cain to kill his own brother in order to stop God's prophetic destiny about Abel:

And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.
— Genesis 3:15

Destiny is God's divine purpose for your life. The number one☝️agenda of household enemies is to stop you from fulfilling God's destiny on earth.

Household enemies can also be termed 'household witchcraft' because they are agents of the devil empowered by demonic spirits to destroy the destinies of their family members.

The famous King David had a very dangerous household enemy who came out of his own bowels; his name was ABSALOM.

God handpicked David from leading sheep to be king over the nation of Israel. But even more importantly, God choose David to be a vital part of the lineage of Jesus Christ.

In his message to the virgin Mary, angel Gabriel spoke of Jesus inheriting the throne of David and ruling over it forever:

Luke 1
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
³² He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:
³³ And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.

After surviving king Saul's , David ascended the throne of Israel and became King.

However on a certain occasion , David because of his uncontrollable lust, gave ample place to the devil to operate in his family by committing adultery and murder.

Neither give place to the devil.
— Ephesians 4:27

The devil like he did to Cain, manipulated Absalom, David's son, to rebel against his father and seek his death.

Absalom secretly formed a nationwide party for some years and at the set time, drove out his father from the throne and kingdom. (2 Samuel 15: 1-17)

God's destiny for David was under serious threat! David's own son had not only driven him out of his own kingdom but was now plotting his death with David's professional counselor called Ahithophel.

Ahithophel's counsels were so accurate, they were like seeking counsel directly from God's face. (2 Samuel 16:23)

Hadn't David prayed against the wise counsels of Ahithophel, he might have been been killed by his son Absalom. (2 Samuel 15:31)

Eventually, David with the help of his men of war, overcame the treasonous sedition brought about by his son and reclaimed his throne.

David faced a lot of battles, but no doubt, his battle with his son Absalom was his greatest because it almost cost him his throne, kingdom and destiny.


Like David,

1. Our greatest battles in life come from our bloodlines. (brother, sister, parents, grandparents, children, aunty, uncle, etc)

2. The greatest opposition against our destinies come from our bloodlines.

When do household enemies operate?


2 Samuel 17
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
¹ Moreover Ahithophel said unto Absalom, Let me now choose out twelve thousand men, and I WILL ARISE AND PURSUE AFTER DAVID THIS NIGHT:
² And I will come upon him while he is weary and weak handed, and will make him afraid: and all the people that are with him shall flee; and I will smite the king only:
³ And I will bring back all the people unto thee: the man whom thou seekest is as if all returned: so all the people shall be in peace.

The major operation time of household enemies is at midnight.

According to Ahithophel's wise counsel, the most appropriate time to kill David was at night when he was least alert and weak.

Household enemies use the midnight hours to do a lot of evils against us because they know at that time we are least alert and weak in sleep.

And you know what? They often succeed in their wickedness at midnight because most people are least alert spiritually to counter them but they prefer to sleep.

Indeed while men slept soundly at night, the enemy came and sowed evil tares! (Matthew 13:25)

God is the perfect matchmaker.

It's only God that can lead you to the bone of your bones and flesh of your flesh.

The only problem is that we are impatient with God and want it our way not His.

Truly, there are many women, but few wife materials, even in our big mega churches

As long as you are irreplaceable.

Once you are replaceable, find your way out before you are sacked or mistreated.

When a young man makes good money he feels entitled to many women UNLESS he's disciplined.

Very soon if care is not is not taken, we will have 1000 hours cookatoon

Kobojunkie:
You create your own reality meaning you suggest people subscribe to exist in what are private delusions as opposed to the true reality which is we are all meant to be a part of? Do you also create your own world, laws of natural and air while you are at it?

2. The reality that is Jesus Christ is superior to me? Not sure I understand.

3. Really? Cause last I checked the reason why many so many who are caught under one delusion or another --- mentally illness --- struggle to find their place in the universe has to do with the fact that what they bear is against nature and so not desirable..

From creation, God never intended man to be polygamous.

It was supposed to be one man and one wife.

However as society evolved, men began to prefer having many women as a result of:


▪️Wealth status

▪️Sexual preferences

▪️Religious beliefs

Being polygamous is a choice, it isn't inherent in men.

Read Your Bible and Pray ,the world is full of both seen and their is unseen evil too. Alot are chasing your growth , both known person and unknown.
The closer you get to God the further you are away from the devil. As you keep God words, the devil keeps falling. Do you not want to be saved ?

Add fasting too o.

Some things won't happen unless you fast and pray.

Life is more spiritual than physical.

That's why I advocate that before getting married a man should do proper deliverance with his fiancee.

Such problems like this abound in so many marriages to the point that people regret whon they married.

It's isn't too late to undergo deliverance.

When people are obsessed with lethal guns like the Americans, they use them like toy guns.

This is according to Adam west economics theory:

Resources should be well maximized

So surprised to see arsenal buying rice at such a hefty amount which former gaffer arsene Wenger (the economist) would never had approved of.

If approved, it's a new British record.

franchasofficia:
King Solomon had more than 500 concubines, and many people that read about that thought it was a joke...99.99% of entertainment celebrities have more than 1,000 mistresses scattered all over the world, no jokes, and don't blame them until you become financially rich and famous too, that is when you will realize that women = money.



Every woman fantasizes of having sex with a particular entertainment or sports celebrity (musician, actor, model, footballer, basketballer, boxer, TV presenter, etc), it is what it is, sadly

Solomon had 300 concubines and 700 wives.

But at the end do you know what he said?

VANITY!

If you are blessed with too much money, and you aren't a womanizer....

Believe me, you are a rare breed 👍

Anything your hands find to do, as long as it's legitimate, do it well!

Will Nigeria ever pay back all these loans?or keep intermittent borrowing?

Food for thought 🤔

Life is risky....

But some risks are more riskier than others!

This costly expenditure deep deep into the sea in a small tube, not certified, was definitely a great risk.

Nothing could tempt me to enter that cubicle so deep into the sea. It's like a watery grave.

Actually soul mates do exists....

But they are ☝️, ✌️or 3 in a million.

Finding them is God's favour.

Can Tinubu arrest Buhari the outgoing president

It's impossible.

It's a matter of scratch my back and I will scratch yours.

Tinubu endorsed buhari's presidency and Buhari returned the favour.

After school, I and my older siblings and friends will walk from Ilupeju/palmgrove to Olateju in Mushin so we can use our transport money to drink Tandi, coke and fanta with okin biscuit.

Okin biscuit

Hmmmm.... I remember eating it those days as a child.

Such nostalgia.

Pacyrus:
You get to see the jubilation at Isolo, just because a dictator died.

... and when the wicked perish, there is shouting.
— Proverbs 11:10

The day abacha death was broadcasted, indeed it was jubilation everywhere.

Women can be very cryptic and mysterious....

You can't fully understand a woman unless she loves you genuinely.

Growing up in the 80's reminds me of those days when:

1. NTA and FRCN dominated and had no competition.

2. No email, so we had to post our letters and wait patiently for a reply.

3. Teachers were more dedicated and education had more value.

4. Christmas and birthdays were so enjoyable!

5. We relished the visit of uncles and aunties because of the tip they give us.

6. Musical lyrics made sense.

7. Idolized Maradona, Pele, Brazil, Argentina, etc.

8. Pentecostal churches were few.

Broveens42:
Shows you don't even read your Bible. But rely on what you were told

god's original idea in Genesis was for man to be ALONE.....The creation of Eve was an after thought when he realized how lonely Adam was.

Paul also indirectly advocated for god's original idea when he said " it's good for man to be ALONE but for temptation every man should have his wife..."

marriage has nothing to do with the character "god" when you read contextually

Opposite sex is accurately relatable

Please don't be ignorant of the Bible.

God who knows all things from the end to the beginning created Adam and Eve together:

“Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created.”
— Genesis 5:2 (KJV)

God ordained marriage when He created Adam.
