Qualifying for God's Anointing

DAY 19 OF 31

GOD ANOINTS SOUND FOLLOWERSHIP (1)

God anoints sound followership. Elisha followed well and got a double portion of the anointing upon Elijah. We must follow sound anointings to receive the right anointing upon our lives. It is the anointing you are following closely that you are going to receive upon yourself. Don’t follow men who are not anointed. Some people follow men who are carrying demonic anointings and call them their heroes and godfathers. You can have godfathers around you but be careful how you follow them.

As I was praying one day, God gave me a word for a brother. The Lord sent me to tell him to be careful how he follows his boss at work so that he does not receive the negative flows in the life of his boss into his life. The brother had been missing too many critical things that belonged to him in life. I called the brother over the phone and told him what the Lord said. He responded with gratitude and said he was in front of the door of the boss’ house when I phoned him.

Many people have curses operating in their lives. They may be ahead of you now, but it is only temporary. However, that same thing will operate in your life if you come under that spirit. Elisha followed Elijah, wanted a double portion of his spirit, and received it. Don’t receive spirits from outside; receive spirits from the Kingdom because God anoints sound followership.

PRAYER: Father, I refuse to be a wrong follower. From today, I commit myself to be a responsible and sound follower of Christ in Jesus' name. Amen!
