He that is well does not need a physician. Probably, if one of the camera men, ushers or all of them are sick, they'll probably fall under the anointing

📖 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
Na una know the yeye anointing wey una dey fall....dey scatter church like person wey dey possessed.

Expectations is the mother of manifestation. It is the expectation of the camera to capture the event while it is the expectation of those being captured to receive Gods gift through a vessel as a result they focus on that. D camera man's focus is to capture what is happening.
Imagine the comment SMH....! If all those things are true by the time the spirit lands nobody will even be able to record anything. Make una dey deceive una selves.

It is not fake, it is genuine, but I am not ruling out fake amongst the original, and it happens in every human endeavor, the fact that you see a fake dollar bill means that there's an original as well

The one that goes up ... and Pastor lays his and upon him ... he knows he must drop because he don't want to face the wrath of the Pastor later. Widely televised and this one working against his display of power?... there will be serious consequences.

Op, there's nothing like anointing in church, those who fall in church are pretending with the notion to deceive people, probably, some pastor's pay them to do so.

Let me tell you the bitter truth.

God, Satan, Jesus Christ,Angels and demons, doesn't exist,

There's no reliable, concretable and approvable evidence of their existence.

Infact the so called heaven doesn't exist,

please don't let anybody deceive you, heaven is just a figment of imagination, it's not real.

obailala:
Those cameramen and ushers aren't participating in the prayers. A very important condition for it to work on a person is that that person has to focus and participate in the activity.

This is also true in the art and science of HYPNOTISM, a key condition for it to work is that that person has to be interested, has to focus and has to participate in the activity. An example is the 419 art of wash-wash which is common in Nigeria. A key ingredient for the hypnotism to work is that the victim MUST be interested in the 'scam deal' and has to willingly show interest, else the hypnotism wouldn't work.

Back the the cameramen issue: next time you see a cameraman or usher not falling under anointing, its because they arent participating in the prayers. They're busy pressing phones and cameras or just spectators. If you see cameramen or ushers ever falling anywhere, na acting or juju.
What about ushers and assistant pastors? Are they not interested? Are they not in the mood of prayer?

So, the camera man is purely there for a worldly business, not for salvation.

Why don't the ushers fall too 😂
Why does a particular or a few people fall and not the entire congregants?

Why is it mostly women that fall to the so called anointing?

Why is there always confusion everywhere?

If you know where those Men of Fraud get their powers from, you will run for you life.

I'm sure that you know that no living being can stand the presence of spirit, both good and evil spirits?
Unless you have not encountered an evil spirit before cos I have.

I no dey fall. There was a time a guest minister tried it with me, I'm on the slim side and I suspected I would be an easy target, I opened my eyes and saw him staring at me, he rushed to me , practically pushing me to fall. I strong body gan, no be me you go use shine, I'm slim is not a determinant of my strength. He push taya, scatter chair for where, I did not fall. Yeye dey smell .

Camera men
Ushers don't fall under the anointing because they are not connected during prayers..
You need to be focused, fixed during prayers before you can fall under the annonting.. a little distraction gets you disconnected
