Bad Characteristics Of The Anointing Doves

Several bad conducts have been observed in the lives and works of some anointing doves. The bad characteristics are explained below, so that everybody should avoid them:

1.    Jealousy. They would like to be the only ones moved by anointing.

2.    Envy.

3.    Backsliding, speaking evil about somebody in his absence.

4.    Disobedience to the directives of the Holy Spirit, especially when given through a person the anointing dove does not like.

5.    Criticism and mockery. They criticise others and mock them, even when there is no need for criticism.

6.    Pride and pomposity. Many feel that, because they can deliver prophetic messages or see visions, nobody is greater than them. They despise others, especially the junior ministers.

7.    Hot tempered. Some of the anointing doves are prone to anger. They are easily offended and quick to express outbursts of anger.

8.    Saying wicked prayer. Often, they are busy praying God to avenge or attack their offenders, including their fellow ministers or members who have committed minor offences against them.

9.    Revengeful. They insist on revenging every minor offence.

10.Malice. Some of them bear grudges. Always complaining, nagging or thinking bad of others.

11.Discrimination. Some anointing doves discriminate a lot. They love some and hate others.

12.Avoidance. They always like to avoid others or dodge instructions.

13.Suspicion. They are often suspicious of others. Therefore, they feel uneasy in the midst of others.

14.Hard to correct. Some of them do not welcome corrections.

15.Delay. They delay the works of the Holy Spirit, by avoiding anointing motion.

16.Hindrance. They hinder successful prayer by their angry disposition or mood swing.

 

Things You Should Know About Anointing

1.    Do not spend your time gossiping about those being used by the spirit.

2.    Do not go to others and start telling them whether the spirit is good or bad, for there are so many things people do not know about spirit.

3.    Do not push away anybody being moved by anointing (by the spirit).

4.    Do not revenge any wrong done to you.

5.    Do not spend your time saying it shall not be well with others.

6.    Protect those being moved by anointing from harm, danger or fall.

7.    Every minister must avoid the practice of forming separate groups in the house of God. That is discrimination, and it is evil.

8.    Correction is not disrespect and it is not a shameful thing. By corrections, every organization remains in the right path for success and prosperity. The white men would even pay people to give them corrections and advice.

9.    Be ready to receive corrections, from your seniors. Even from your juniors, when necessary.

10.   Do not show disrespect to any person being used by the spirit. If you do so, you are working against the Angels. Such a bad behavior can bring your trouble or keep your prayers unanswered.

11.   If you are already developed in spirit, it is your duty to develop others, not to be complaining about them, and not to be avoiding them.

12.   If you are new in the ministry, it is your duty to receive instructions and training from those before you.

13.   In every situation, you must show yourself spiritually wise and mature. Handle every case with love and consideration.

14.   It is your duty to strive to make your spiritual talents manifest and functional, and not to be criticizing others who are using their talents.

15.   For you to grow in spirit, you must forgive and forget always. Do not bear grudges. Stop complaining that this person did this and that person did that.

16.   Always speak with respect to others. Speak in a polite way, and with a good tone.

17.   For your work to complete and perfect, you must have good relationship with others, treat others very well, and assist them. You should not be avoiding them. Perfect peace starts from your heart, then it spreads to others, and culminates with God. This means that peace of mind and peace with your fellow human beings are very important part of your peace with God.

18.   Do not avoid lectures, for there are still so many things to learn, to do and to teach.

19.   Ensure that you are not absent whenever your presence and services are needed.

20.   Do not spend God’s time attending to people. I mean the time when you are supposed to be in the presence of God, during Sabbath worship, festivals, Fourthday prayers and lectures.

 

Lessons From Incidents During Angel’s Ministrations, Deliverance And Spiritual Works

During deliverance and spiritual work, anointing was moving a lady minister. Due to the severity of the anointing, her scarf fell of her head. Other ministers rushed and held her. They were trying to put the scarf back on the lady’s head. But it was not easy to do, because of the type of hairstyle the girl had. Before then, the lady being moved by anointing was performing deliverance on a girl. The lady minister bounced her body to and fro, in such a way that made the other ministers loose their hold on her.

In another incident, anointing was moving a girl, and the scarf fell off. People rushed to her and held her body. They were trying to put the scarf back on her head. Suddenly, she struggled very hard, saying, “Leave me alone. Leave me alone. Leave me alone.” Immediately they let her free, the anointing moved her to the front of the altar. There, she saluted several times and then knelt down and bow to God.

          The lessons:

1.    When anointing is moving somebody, it no longer herself that is present. Instead, the anointing spirit, the Holy Spirit or Angel is moving the person. Whatever you do to the body is the same as doing such a thing to the spirit. If the heart is bad it may, and is likely, to attract curse or penalty.

2.    Once a person moved by anointing has started performing deliverance or spiritual work, do not hold her back, so that you do not delay the deliverance or interfere in the spiritual work.

3.    If the scarf falls off, collect it and keep it for her.

4.    You can try to put the scarf on again after she has finished work.

5.    The anointing may be an Angel or Holy Spirit using the person being moved. In this way, people should not delay work or interfere.

6.    The best thing is that those moved by anointing should:

a.  Tie their scarf very well and hard, so that the scarf does not fall off, as a soldier kits himself very well, so that he does not loose time and victory by resetting his wears and weapons.

b. Those moved by anointing should make the type of hairstyles that do not make the scarf to fall off during prayers or worship.

c.  If the scarf falls off during prayers or worship, it is a mark of indiscipline, indecency, carelessness, and unpreparedness. God is not pleased with that.

 

Code Of Conduct For Both Ministers And Members

Before, during and after anointing is moving somebody:

1.    Do not say it is not the Holy Spirit that is working.

2.    Do not resist the Holy Spirit.

3.    Do not say things or behave in such a way that disobeys the spirit.

4.    Do not go about gossiping about the spirit, his ministration or about what is being done in the ministry. Every member of the public, who so wishes, is free to attend activities of the ministry.

5.    If there is anything wrong, which you have observed, bring up such matters at the minister’s meeting for correction and necessary actions.

6.    Do not push somebody who is being moved by anointing. Instead, help to protect such a person.

7.    Do not rebuke, push or warn somebody who is being moved by anointing.

8.    If a spirit has completed his work, and anointing is still moving the person used:

a.     You have to pour the blood of Jesus on the person’s head, spray the same on his body and pour also on the feet.

b.    And then, make the person to sit down.

9.    Do not perform deliverance or spiritual work on anybody being moved by anointing. That is while the Holy Spirit or Angel is using the person to work.

 

General Rules And Regulations

The following are prohibited:

1.    Engaging in quarrel or rebuke before, during or after prayers, worship and occasions.

2.    If there is anything wrong, which you have observed,

a.     Bring up such matters at the minister’s meeting for correction and necessary actions.

b.    Or, consult the right person, officer, Advisory Committee or Disciplinary Committee.

3.    It is not every issue that you should take to the Director.

a.     First, consult the right person, officer or committee.

b.    Before going to the Director.

4.    Obey the ministers or officers at various sections of the ministry, because they are working for the good of all humanity.

5.    After a meeting or committee has taken a decision, do not go about telling people that you were not among those who made the decision or gave the order.

 

There Is No Competition In Heaven.

Instead, Teamwork Is Peaceful Trend

          What I have to say concerns the ministers are these:

 

1.    Stop competition (ima aka) in this ministry; it is very bad.

2.    In this ministry, after you are trained and your call become manifest and functional, bend down (humble yourself), like a baby who is still crawling, for God to build you up like a house. … For you to become viable and do the work for which you came into this world.

3.    Once pride comes into your life, you are nothing.

4.    Stop gossiping about others. If somebody is moved by anointing, such that he scatters or speaks incoherently, do not criticize (mock) the person. If you do so, you are blaspheming God and the Angels that use the person.

5.    Next is obedience… You must be humble. Be humble. Jesus is a humble man. Be humble. Humility is not in you. No obedience; no respect. Before you get what you want from Jesus, you must be obedient.

… Act like the children, so that a thick soup will be sufficient for the foofoo (so that you make good use of what is not abundant). When we behave like children, love will fill all of us. Then, we love others as we love ourselves, even more than we love our blood mother. …. If our father wants to speak (interfere), we say no. Because love has been used in training us. If you speak a parable to a knowledgeable person, he understands what is said. But, if you do the same to a nonentity, he flings his head into the bush (he misunderstands what is said).

6.    A new minister has to respect the old minister. A senior is a senior, and a junior is a junior. But in the presence of God, all are equal. …We have many works to do. The more we despise one another, the more we delay our time.

 

Frequently Asked Questions And Answers About Anointing

1.     If the message delivered during anointing is wrong, who is making the mistake? The spirit or the person being used?

Those moved by anointing should be frequent in the presence of God and live a holy life, so that evil spirits cannot possess and manipulate them. Besides, they should maintain purity of heart and goodwill unto all, so that the Holy Spirit will always use them to deliver true messages. Once a minster of God does not have these two qualities in himself, the messages are likely to be wrong or biased.

Very importantly, he should not be listening to gossip in order not to be influenced by what people say.

 

2.     Why is that some individuals moved by anointing can control themselves, while others cannot? Such other persons do jam the seats, people or walls?

Usually, a person moved by anointing for the first time seems to be, or is, violent. But, with time, the anointing becomes gentle and safe.

Also, the anointing makes them to feel dizzy, unsteady or block their eyes with something like clouds.

 

3.     Some people moved by anointing deliver messages on what should be done. But when that thing directed is being done, they exclude themselves or look with disdain on those doing what the Holy Spirit said. Why? Is it right for them to behave in such a way?

The conduct is very bad. Those who behave in this way are usually jealous, envious and greed. Some feel that they are so high in spirit that nobody can pray for them again. They feel that nobody should direct them. Many would not join others because they are in power tussle with their fellow ministers. In the house of God, everybody should become like the children. He must attend to others with purity of heart and goodwill unto all men. Otherwise, he is no longer working for God. Instead, he makes himself a ready tool in the hands of the evil spirits.

 

4.     Why is it that many of those moved by anointing do not keep the word of God, in terms of dressing, hairstyle, noise-making, conversation, jealousy, envy and greed?

This fact shows that many of those who claim to be born again are not born again. The fact that the spirit is using somebody does not necessarily mean that the person is a saint. Many are not yet spiritually mature, but God gave them very important talents for the good of humanity. However, everyone used by the spirit must live up to expectations. His conduct should not be contrary to the directives of the Holy Spirit, so that he does not cause confusion and doubt among the flock.

 

5.     Is multiple possessions possible by several spirits at the same time? For example, somebody moved by anointing may say, “It is Holy Spirit that is speaking”. Later, he says, “It is Raphael”. And not long afterwards, he says, “It is Gabriel”. Is multiple anointing possible?

Multiple anointing is possible at the same time, for in spirit, several beings can indwell one person. That is how mixed spirits become manifest. But this reality is not a cause for concern, and ministers of God should not cause confusion because of it. Whoever claims to be moved by several spirits at the same time should be able to explain what is happening in spirit. Besides, all his works and ministration should confirm each other.

 

6.      When anointing is moving somebody, what should the person be saying? He should be saying, “Thank you, Jesus. Thank you, Jesus. Thank you, Jesus.” Another thing he should be saying or shouting, “Holy. Holy. Holy.”

 

7.     Why does anointing move and inconvenience some people at home?

a.     The glory of the Lord fills the earth.

b.     The anointing may be a punishment for disobedience and non-compliance.  For some ministers do withhold themselves while they are inside the church. By so doing, they prevent the Holy Spirit and Angels from ministering to the congregation. Therefore, when he gets home, the anointing starts moving him, as punishment.

 

8.     A minister complained that somebody kicked her during anointing. I thought that a person being moved by anointing does not know what is happening around him?

          Answer: It is not always the case. Much depends on the person’s lifestyle and the Angel using him. The anointing spirit may decide:

a.     To stay in the sky during the anointing and use the anointed as a tool.

b.    The spirit may stay in the air.

c.     He may stay by the person’s side.

d.    He may choose to stay inside the person’s body.

Sometimes holding the person being moved by anointing may delay work, cause distraction or restrict the movement of the spirit. As long as holding the person does not disturb spiritual work, the spirit will not bother. But once, holding the body will disturb, the Angel will do one thing or the other for people to leave him.

 

9.    You anoint a person, but he goes out living worldly lifestyle, doing everything against the word of God. Is it proper to anoint such persons?

1.    Physically, it seem not good.

2.    But, spiritually, it is good.

3.    If you do not anoint him, on the last day, he will say that he came to do God’s work but was not allowed.

4.    It is your duty to receive people and attend to them very well.

5.    Pray for their needs, so that none shall have any excuse to give, for not doing God’s work.

6.    Somebody complained that he prayed to God and God did not answer him. Therefore, he prayed to Satan and Satan answered him.

7.    Righteousness is like playing football. You are judged by what you do when the ball comes to your court, and not by what others do then.

8.    Anointing is necessary because it marks the end of judgement on whether the person is for God or for the Devil.

9.    The moment a person is anointed, the Angels will more seriously fight to empower, prosper and protect him, than when he is not anointed.

10.           Anointing is dedicating somebody to God.

11.           You should know that anointing marks the end of judgement (struggle) between the forces of goodness and forces of darkness, but it is not the end of deliverance. Several deliverances may still be necessary.

12.           Everybody is already a sinner, but only those who abide in the way of Truth and salvation shall be made perfect and fit to inherit the kingdom of heaven.
