England often has the most talented players, both they also often fail to lift the trophies.

Will 2026 be a different year for them?

Meanwhile 90% of the time, it's always the richest bidder that will be announced in church

Poorer men are overlooked.

Ephesians 3:20
Simply saying God will give us more than what we ask. No reference to the "measure" of Holy Ghost here.

John 3:34
John the Baptist was talking about Jesus here, clearly. Not disciples, not believers.

Besides, of what benefit is it to the person that "fell under the anointing" and the pastor that "impacted" them? Will it give them a bigger healing, or repentance, or blessing?? Or will it make the pastor a better preacher??

The Holy Ghost is purposeful, not a show off. And He's not a compelling spirit either.

People can get injured or even die from those falls. Do you think God's spirit would want that?? The Spirit does His work effectively without putting the children of God at risk of physical harm! After all, Jesus and His apostles healed people without putting them in harm's way.

The gifts of the Spirit are diverse. But none is greater in measure. The only reason one has higher manifestation than the other, is how much you allow Him to use you. It doesn't mean you have "more measure", it means you allow more to flow through you. And if all of us allow more of Him, we'd all be operating at the same level.

Jesus was the given the Holy Spirit without measures, because He is God.

Haven't you heard of the baptism of the Holy Spirit?

Through the baptism of the Holy Spirit, one has access to the Holy Spirit without measures. But no one can have the fullness of the Holy Spirit like Jesus.

As for Ephesians 3:20, it's talking about the power of God through the Holy Spirit in us.

That power is in measures in us though it is immeasurable.

WeirdAlien:
Just tell me one place in the new testament where that fact is established.

At least, I quoted where the Bible said the same anointing abides in us. You can just use mouth to argue against a bible verse - are you a Christian? You must show me another place in the scripture that negates this.

Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,”
— Ephesians 3:20 (KJV)

“For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: for God giveth not the Spirit by measure unto him.”
— John 3:34 (KJV)

You need to learn from the responses you are getting here and try to start thinking with your brain, even while you believe in your heart. From the passage you quoted at the beginning of your sermon, it was the PRIEST who couldn't stand the power of the presence of the Lord and had to fall to the ground. But in your picture, and also every other case of 'falling under anointing' in our churches, it is only some members that fall; the priest never falls for once. Or have you ever seen a priest fall in 'the presence of the Lord' in our generation? Does it mean today's priests are more powerful than the force of the presence of the Lord that they can't fall? This is why you need to think more with your head than you believe in your heart.
You even experienced it when a 'genuine man of God' prayed for you, but how come all the genuine men of God that I know in this world don't have anyone falling in their church, rather, only charlatans like some Nigerian fake prophets we all know are the ones making people fall in their church?
USE YOUR HEAD OR ELSE, SOMEONE 'FAKE' WILL USE IT FOR YOU!

There are different levels of Anointing.

Sometimes the Anointing can be so strong, even the priests or pastors can't remain on their feet.

However most of the time God ministers the anointing through the priests or pastors because they have consecrated themselves through hours of fasting and prayer.

But that doesn't mean there are not fake pastors! They are plenty, but God has own genuine ministers!

immortalcrown:
But camera men, singers, instrumentalists, ushers and interpreters do not partake in the anointing.

So, no camera man needs deliverance? Are all camera men holy and clean or is God not interested in touching those who work in the church?

The Anointing functions just like electricity 🔌.

Electricity is directional, so is the Anointing.

The reason why most of those who you mentioned don't fall under anointing is because the Anointing isn't directed to them. I hope you understand?

However in the case of a much heavier Anointing, most of them do fall.

WeirdAlien:
But it's not recorded that people "fell under the anointing" while Peter, Paul, or any of the apostles ministered. In fact this phenomenon is purely a Pentecostal and Charismatic thing that started around the 1730s.
We all carry God's presence, and no pastor/minister has superior or greater anointing than another Christian - 1 John 2:20 and 27.

So where did these pastors get their own from??

That's not true. We all have varying measurements of God's presence and anointing.

daniwise:
This thread is filled with so many ignorant people.So are you trying to tell me that holy spirits dont exist?I am a direct beneficiary of the holy spirit.That is all I have to say.

God bless you.

Really I'm disappointed at most of the negative comments here.

A lot of people mock the things of God without realizing that the supernatural is more real than the natural.

📖 1 Kings 8
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
¹⁰ And it came to pass, when the priests were come out of the holy place, that the cloud filled the house of the LORD,

¹¹ So that the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud: for the glory of the LORD had filled the house of the LORD.

I am sure you have witnessed this scenario before:

A spiritual leader prays for and lays hands on certain of his/her members and "whoosh!" they fall to the floor like a pack of cards.

The Charismatics call this experience "slaying in the Spirit" or the most commonly known term "falling under the Anointing".

While many skeptics doubt and mock the authenticity of this divine experience, it is 100% biblical.

I have been personally "slain in the Spirit" on different occasions when prayed for by genuine ministers of God and it felt like mild electricity ⚡ flowing through or warm water 💦 drenching my body.

During King Solomon's dedication of the magnificent temple, God was so pleased that He filled the temple to the brim with His presence.

In response to His overflowing presence, the officiating priests couldn't stand on their feet anymore but were compelled to the floor.

Interestingly, we see something similar when John the beloved encountered the glorified Jesus:

📖 And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last.
— Revelation 1:17

The Lord's presence was so overwhelming, John subconsciously prostrated at His feet like a dead man.

👉When people are "slain in the Spirit" their spirits are simply responding to God's overflowing presence in awe and reverence.

God so loves us that He often touches us at our point of needs with His presence.

However, unlike in the Old testament, our bodies are now the temples of God's presence...we are carriers and conductors of God's glory. (1 Corinthians 3:16-17)

God does pour out His presence through His ministers but It's important to note that while people may "fall under the Anointing" during their prayers, this is not meant to glorify any minister of the gospel.

It is a dangerous thing for any pastor, prophet, evangelist, apostle, etc. to share the glory that exclusively belongs to God.

📖 ...and I will not give my glory unto another.
— Isaiah 48:11

As she is giving excuses, there are certain men out there that are compatible and be a good match with her... meeting them is the big problem.

That's where mature singles need divine intervention. Infact asking God for the very kind of person you want is possible unless you have strong faith.

There's nothing like reincarnation, at least for human beings.

Spirits can reincarnate in human forms but it's impossible for a born human to do that.

Marriage and children aren't a guarantee for a happy life, though both are important.

cr7lomo:
Seems like kidnapping has replaced armed robbery ... this is very dangerous for society

It has.

The cashless society has really discouraged armed robbery.

See how the south Africans celebrated their one point against czechia as though they won the competition

Soonest they will join turkey and Haiti ✈️....to their country they don't want to share with foreigners.

UkoAnnang:


She carry these soft breess go grave

Bress wey boys no even succk enough

Chai death, why?

Men like to objectify women, but why objectify this woman even in death?

It's not funny at all.

See how innocent/gentle the abusive woman is looking....the wicked always look innocent 😇 when caught.

Only two things could have pushed the woman to have brutalized the boy that way:

1. Anger

2. Witchcraft (e no dey show for face)

Congratulations 🎉 in advance to Manchester United for winning the EPL 2026/2027 season....

Yes, na me talk am.

Lays credence to the fact that gaining juicy employment is more of who favours or knows you than your qualifications, especially in Nigeria.

Czechia 1

Xenophobia republic 1

Very sad 😢

Cape Verdeans have to really celebrate 🥂 their 40 year old goal keeper for saving them against Spain....

It would have been a basket of goals

Meanwhile OP, nudity isn't beauty.

Christiano Ronaldo could have been sweating 😅 after that draw with DRC.

Colombia are no pushovers, the Portuguese have a lot to do and may finish as 3rd best losers.

Those DRC boys are really determined.

Marriage isn't compulsory.... infact some people have married their archenemies and paid prematurely with their lives!

However some people can't marry because they already married spiritually to demons.

Deliverance is the only solution for such.

DoctorAyukebot:
With three points they stand a good chance of qualifying for the third spot best losers

Third spot best losers qualifiers is not from every group, it's a selection.

Twoclans:
Congratulations Black stars of Ghana.Our noisy neighbours becomes the first Africa team to win a match since the world cup started.

3 solid points .Congratulations Ghana.

Ivory coast won their match.

Congrats to Ghana.

Playing against Panama was definitely their easiest game and luckily they won.

England and Croatia won't be push overs.

I'm disappointed at the Portuguese coach....

Why start Ronaldo knowing fully well he's past his prime?

Ronaldo should be a sub in this world cup and allow younger forwards shine.

westside365:
The man to watch out 4, a true legend.

He isn't there.

Ebola virus threat ruled out their fans from travelling from Africa.

A pity though, despite all his loyalty 😞

Next time FIFA will think twice before granting USA hosting rights

Messi proved doubters wrong by scoring a hat trick on his first match at this world cup.

What a player, Even at 38!

sirblend:
2002 is about to repeat itself again...

Success to Senegal

No....France will beat Senegal today.

Being gay is accepted normal in the developed world so those of us that want to japa by all means need to take note.

Uncontrollably self_service can lead to gay tendencies....be warned.

I know of two friends I had years back that had homosexual tendencies, though not fully developed.
