Shalom!
"And it came to pass, when they were gone over, that Elijah said unto Elisha, Ask what I shall do for thee, before I be taken away from thee. And Elisha said, I pray thee, let a double portion of thy spirit be upon me" (2 Kings 2:9).
I have experienced divine impartations thru several men of God over the years since I got born again.
These impartations have added to me. A number of times these men were led of God to lay hands over younger ministers present. I went to a few of them and asked them to pray for me. It was glorious. I have had dreams in which great men of God came to lay hands on me and by the time I woke up, felt the power of God all over me.
In 1986, when I read the book titled, Understanding The Anointing, by Revd Kenneth E. Hagin, the anointing of God increased upon my life. As you stay around anointed people and their materials (books, audio and video), what you have will increase tremendously. Mine has.
If you are humble enough to depend on God to help you in ministry, you will experience more anointing in YOUR AREA OF MINISTRY. You should be humble enough to know that others also are anointed of God. You're not the only one. Everyone's area of ministry is peculiar and unique. You have what others don't have and they too have from God what you don't have, and you need those things in your life.
Elisha got twice as much anointing as Elijah, and he did twice as much too. Chariots of fire came to carry Elijah away to heaven, but nothing carried Elisha anywhere, but eventually, his bones in the grave brought a dead man back to life. Elijah joined Moses to strenghten Jesus before He was crucified at that holy mount where He was transfigured before Peter, James and John.
What matter is the kind of relationship we keep with God. It's important to have the Anointing of God, but it's best to be friends with Him in intimate fellowship.
Till next time, God bless.
