David was the youngest of eight sons, and apparently no one saw greatness in him. When Samuel came to his house to anoint a king, David’s father didn’t even consider David as a candidate. He was just a kid out watching the sheep. But when David received the anointing, everything changed. The anointing made all the difference for David. And it still makes all the difference for us today…

we have heard the sound our eyes have

seen the light

are no longer afraid you can find us

breaking down walls building foundations

leading the way and loving every moment

[Music]

I don’t want substitutes we’re living in

an hour of substitutes in the body of

Christ and we think we can substitute

the anointing of the Holy Spirit for

other things when there is nothing that

will get the job done like the anointing

exodus chapter 30 verse 23 moreover the

Lord spoke to Moses saying take for

yourselves quality spices some Bibles

translations say principal spices one

translation says the best spices and

then he lists five different kinds and

then in verse 24 he gives the quantity

of how much he says you are to take a

hint of olive oil that is five quarts of

olive oil and put five ingredients into

it and it will become the anointing oil

verse twenty-nine you shall consecrate

them that they may be most holy whatever

touches them must be holy you shall

anoint Aaron and his sons and consecrate

them verse 31 and you should speak to

the children of Israel saying listen you

may think well that was back then for

there them and there saying this shall

be a holy anointing all to me that’s God

speaking throughout your generations I

want you to do this from generation to

generation it shall not be poured on

man’s flesh nor shall you make any other

like it I don’t want it substitute it I

want it to be the real thing

according to its composition its holy

and it shall be holy to you whoever

compounds any like it or whoever puts

any of it on an outside or some

translations say a stranger shall be cut

off from his people I remembered a

message that impacted my life I don’t

remember every detail or even specific

points of the sermon but the title that

this particular preacher famous preacher

of days gone by who has gone on to be

with the Lord his name was rage Hughes

dr. rage Hughes he preached a sermon

that became very famous to a generation

of preachers before my generation like

my dad and others and that sermon was

called the anointing makes the

difference the anointing makes the

how many of you know there’s a

difference between singing and anointed

singing there’s a difference between

preaching and anointed preaching there’s

a difference between having Church and

having an anointed church service

because the anointing makes the

difference and I want to I want to steal

his title because I believe that is what

will make the difference in your life

you know if you’re a business person we

think the anointing is just for people

in the ministry but the anointing makes

the difference in the marketplace the

anointing will make your gift and and

the call of God and the gifts of God on

your life become powerful and fruitful

what makes us effective is the anointing

first John 2 and verse 20 says but you

have an unction from the Holy One and

that unction that you have received of

him that anointing abides within you

when the anointing is upon someone there

is an unction behind you there is we

used to I used to preach a sermon wisent

evangelist and I called it the unction

to function amen and there’s something

about the anointing that gives you the

unction it quickens you it causes you to

have the ability to do something it

graces you the anointing the word anoint

means to smear own or to rub on that’s

what we will do we will we will take the

anointing all and touch and smear on our

rub bone and that anointing will have a

fragrance and a smell it’s amazing to me

that he said you are to take a hint of

all which is five quarts of all our six

quarts six quarts of all there’s a

symbolic message that when they would

anoint in the in the Bible days they

would pour six quarts of this anointing

all and it wasn’t just a little mercy

drop from heaven it wasn’t just a little

dab would do you it wasn’t just a little

smear and maybe put a little dot on

their head or a cross with all but they

poured six quarts of all read Psalms 133

the Bible said

the old flowed down Aaron’s hair down

past his beard onto his garment down to

his feet he was drenched in the

anointing and I believe that there is a

need today in the church for that kind

of anointing

we don’t need little mercy drops we

don’t need we’re not fighting smaller

things we’re fighting bigger things than

we’ve ever fought before and there’s an

anointing that the Bible talks about in

Joel that said in the last days I will

pour out my spirit I’m not gonna just

touch you or momentarily bless you I

want there to be a saturation of the

anointing I want you to be drenched in

the anointing I want you to have an

anointing upon your life it’s not just

for preachers and prophets it’s for

every one of you and he said you can be

anointed I love the fact that he said

that when you anoint you are to you are

to have fresh oh listen to this verse

Psalms 92 into verse 10 he said I shall

be anointed with fresh all there’s a lot

of people in the church today who are

stale in their anointing they’re stale

in what God is doing in their life

because it’s an old anointing it was

something that happened way back there

in some service a long time ago and

that’s when you know that’s when the

Bible talks about that that there are

flies in the ointment there’s a verse

that actually says that if you don’t

have fresh all the Flies are attracted

to that or north at that point mint that

you have in you and we have to have a

fresh anointing from the Holy Spirit I

love the fact that we can we don’t have

to be repulsive we don’t have to come

there’s that old smell of religion that

gets on us sometimes and we just do in

church and the old machine clanks own

and it’s just another Sunday and it’s

just another church and it’s just

another singing and it’s just another

sermon but when the freshness of the

anointing comes when the touch of

the anointing comes when the power of

the Holy Spirit comes there’s a

freshness to it there’s a quickening to

it there’s an anointing on it I love

that

he said the anointing can do what other

things cannot do when the anointing is

there it begins to permeate the

atmosphere when the woman broke open the

alabaster box and anointed Jesus feet

the aroma of that anointing permeated

the atmosphere there’s something about

the anointing that when it feels a room

there is an there is the odor of the

anointing and I don’t mean a physical

smell but spiritually the atmosphere the

aroma of the anointing when it feels

when somebody gets up and sings a song

the atmosphere changes when that word is

anointed it begins to change the

atmosphere there’s a sweetness there

some 72 and verse 11 said he shall come

down as rain on mowed down fresh grass

you ever walked outside after it rained

and the grass had just been cut there as

an aroma that’s what the anointing is

like when it comes you can smell the

Rose of Sharon you can smell the lily of

the valley there’s a sweetness there’s

something about there’s something that

comes on us when we sense and feel the

anointing Psalms 45 and eight said your

garments do smell of myrrh and cassia in

the ivory palaces and it makes us glad I

believe that when that high priest after

being poured six quarts of all walked

home and he had to go home in that same

outfit can you imagine

and he’s sloshing walking through the

camp and somebody’s sitting over in a

tent and probably watching TV and and

suddenly the anointed man of God walks

by and they don’t see him but somebody

turns in the tent and says what’s that

smell and they won’t look outside and

they say that’s there that’s the

anointed man of God there’s an anointing

on his life he’s leaving anointed

footprints we need all the footprints we

need an anointing on

our life and it’s not that we have to go

around say I’m anointed I’m anointed

look at me but I’m telling you when we

leave this sanctuary today God can so

anoint us that when you go back on the

job when your kids go into school when

they go off the universities the people

they don’t know what to call it but they

say there’s something different about

you there’s something unusual about you

what is it about you what do you do you

do yoga what is it about you you have a

peace about you you have a contentment

about you you have an authority about

you it’s called the anointing hallelujah

and I’m thankful that it’s available to

us today the anointing he said in verse

32 that the anointing don’t you know

there’s a difference when you get in an

anointed service Moses got anointed and

he had to put a veil over his face cuz

he was shining with the glory of God

Stephen got so anointed that the Bible

said that when he stood to preach they

couldn’t resist the spirit by which he

speak he spoke because his face was lit

up like a angel a lot of people getting

lit in the church but we need to get lit

up by the power of the anointing of the

Holy Spirit clap your hands and thank

God the anointing makes the difference

you’re not fighting your battles on your

own strength the anointing makes the

difference on your prayers on your

praise on your spirit on your house

notice the quality qualifications he

said in verse 32 upon man’s flesh shall

it not be poured what’s that about

Romans chapter 8 said they that are

after the flesh do mind the things of

the flesh to be carnally minded his

death but to be spiritually minded his

life and then it ends by saying they

that are after the flesh cannot please

God Galatians three and verse three said

having begun in the spirit are you now

made perfect by the flesh what happens

to people is when they get a little a

and a little maturity they get a little

experience in attending church they

began in the spirit they began leaning

and depending upon the anointing of the

Holy Spirit but as you get older you

just learn how to do things and he said

having begun in the spirit are you now

made perfect by the flesh there’s a lot

of people listening to me that started

in the spirit but now you’re just doing

your stuff in the flesh when you started

that ministry you started that business

you started that career you reconnected

to the anointing you were connected to

the Spirit but now have you gone so far

that you’re now leaning on the arm of

the flesh the scripture said cursed is

the man who leans to the arm of the

flesh john 6 and verse 63 said the flesh

profits nothing it is the spirit that

quickeneth it quickens you that’s called

the anointing I love the story the Bible

said in 1st Samuel 16 that when samuel

was told by god stop mourning over song

i’m gonna anoint a new king he said go

down to Jesse’s house take a bottle of

old

take a take six quarts of all and go

anoint somebody one of his sons I’ll

show you who he is and he goes down to

Jesse’s house and the Bible said that

they brought in seven of the boys and

left one of them out in the field named

David and the scripture said and I love

this it said that that that Samuel when

he saw Ilya Ilya had a stature he had a

look to him that he was presidential he

had something about him that anybody

looking at him and even the scripture

said this about him the scripture said

that he that his personal his personal

preference was surely the Lord will

anoint him

this is the prophet but he’s going by

what you can see that’s where that

famous verse comes in God’s Spirit

quicken him and said don’t pour the oil

on him cuz he looks like it and he’s

waiting on a promotion

for man looks on the outward appearance

but God sees the heart and that’s not

the one and he starts to pour the oil

and the Holy Spirit says don’t pour the

oil on him and they bring seven of them

in and he won’t pour the oil on any of

them and if that’d been me I’d have felt

bad I’d have put a little dab or

something but but he he said I’m not

gonna and I like his wording in King

James he said I won’t anoint this I

don’t know what this is but I’m not

gonna put my anointing on it it looks

good on the outside but the heart isn’t

pure the heart it write the heart isn’t

clean God looks at our heart he said is

there not anybody else in your house

Jesse and Jesse said well I did have one

other boy but I don’t think he’s gonna

mount too much he’s out in the field and

watch what was the out in the field

doing he was out in the field singing

songs he was out in the field play in

his heart and writin and I could see it

in my mind and as one of the boys goes

to retrieve him from tending the Sheep

and he’s jotting down you know he wrote

the 23rd psalm the Lord is my shepherd I

shall not want he maketh nobody out

there he’s just worshiping in private

this is how you get anointed he just

worships God when nobody’s looking

and sure enough he calls him in and when

Samuel sees him he gets quickened and He

pours the old on him and he says you’re

gonna be the next king of Israel and the

Bible said the anointing came on David

from that day forward there’s something

powerful that can happen wouldn’t you

like to leave this service and say from

that day forward I never fight without

the anointing see all of us have

different gifts all of us have different

I love the fact that when when when Saul

said hey if you’re gonna go fight that

giant take my brass shield and take my

armor and take my all my sword and all

that he said no thank you

I’ll just take this little this little

slingshot in this little these five

little rocks that I’ve got because I’ve

got the anointing on it I’d rather have

the anointing on a little

than a whole lot without the anointing

and you may not have the ability

somebody else has you may not have the

gifting that somebody else has but if

you just say god here’s what I’ve got

would you anoint it in would you use it

you’d be amazed that there’s no child

you won’t face that won’t fall when you

comment him in the name of the Lord with

fear 19 because the anointing makes the

difference clap your hands and praise

the Lord

oh I’m feeling a little bit of my

anointing now hallelujah there is a

difference when the anointing comes

there is a freedom when the anointing

comes there is an unction when the

anointing comes man may be mad and

poking across their arms and sucking

their teeth but they’ll be looking crazy

in a minute when the anointing comes on

you because they can’t stop you when

you’re anointed they can’t hold you down

when you’re anointed the devil is afraid

of you

when you’re anointed somebody raise your

hands and say anoint me with fresh oil

fresh all we need a fresh anointing we

need a fresh anointing I’m almost done

but let me keep preaching he said I’m

gonna anoint him in the midst of his

brothers and David was anointed see we

leaned on other things than the

anointing he said it shall not be poured

upon strangers if you stay distant and

far from God don’t expect the anointing

this is for chosen vessels the anointing

is a witness of the Holy Spirit of a

sanctified life Hebrews 10 and verse 15

said he is perfected forever them that

are sanctified we’re of the Holy Spirit

is a witness when you see someone that

is sanctified and the anointing is on

their life that’s the witness of the

Holy Spirit

I have anointed this one he said any

Clete in

Ecclesiastes nine and eight let their

garments always be white let their head

lack no all he said I want you to have

white garments speaking of purity and

because you’re separated because you’re

consecrated because you’re sanctified

because you have white garments you’ll

have anointed heads purity always

produces power we’ve come to a time in

this generation where the word

sanctification makes people gag they

don’t want to have nothing to do with

being separate they don’t want to have

nothing to do with being different from

the world but one thing that the

anointing is attracted to is a person

who is sanctified set apart consecrated

says my life is for Jesus Christ and I

don’t care what everybody else can do if

it’s gonna hinder my anointing I don’t

need it I don’t want it it’s not enough

that for me I want the anointing more

than anything come on somebody lean in

and listen carefully he said and there

will be a great penalty for anyone who

tries to substitute the ingredients that

I said had to be in the anointing he

said don’t substitute did you read that

verse he said you shall not make another

one like it and pretend that’s the real

thing I don’t want substitutes we’re

living in an hour of substitutes in the

body of Christ and we think we can

substitute the anointing of the Holy

Spirit for other things when there is

nothing that will get the job done like

the anointing second chronicles 12 the

Bible said riah Boehm when he had gold

shields they were stolen and about 300

of them and he put them outside the

temple and the Bible said when they got

stolen because they had backslidden and

and the enemies came and stole them he

was afraid of the morale of what would

happen to the people and so he commanded

that they bring brass

shields that they put guards out there

so the people couldn’t get too close to

inspect and then he said polish the

brass shields real good so that when the

Sun hits them from a distance they’ll

still think that it’s the gold but it’ll

really be brass I wonder how much of

what we have in the church is brass

shields and we’re just trying our best

to imitate the real thing which is the

anointing of the Holy Spirit but there

is no imitation that can compare to the

anointing of the Holy Spirit and it’s

here right now for the Spirit of the

Lord is upon me for he has anointed me

to preach the gospel to heal the

brokenhearted to set at liberty them

that are bound acts 10 said God anointed

Jesus with the Holy Ghost and he went

about doing good healing all who were

oppressed of the devil when you get

anointed you’ll go about when you get

anointed God will open doors for you

when you get anointed they can’t hold

you down you’ll go about you get be

anointing on you and the anointing will

make things happen that you can’t make

happen and God wants to anoint every

person under the sound of my voice you

know I gotta close with this little

story but I heard this week a man by the

name of Raymond Culpepper at the I heard

him give this testimony he’s a powerful

preacher and pastor down in Birmingham

Alabama his daughter this happened many

years ago his daughter was 14 years old

and she got in the car with a 16 year

old they were just gonna run down the

road and get something to eat and come

back and they got in the car and

something happened to the car and it

broke down on the side of the road the

middle of the night and a stranger

pulled up got out of the car forced the

girls to get into his car put the

pastor’s Pastor Culpepper’s daughter in

the back seat and the other girl in the

front seat and sped away he started

cursing he started saying mean things

hateful things to them and

the pastor’s daughter noticed that over

in a box on the side was a knife and was

tape and was ropes and she began to

tremble and she said daddy the Holy

Spirit came upon me and I began to pray

in the Holy Spirit as the anointing came

on me and that girl began to pray and

the Holy Ghost pray under the anointing

of the Holy Spirit

she said that man driving that car that

was taking them off to do only God knows

what he was going to do to him

said what’s wrong with her what’s wrong

with her and the girl next to her said

that’s the Holy Ghost

that’s the anointing of God on her life

what’s wrong with you and then she

started and the man started saying why

can’t stand this pulled the car over

said get out of my car I ain’t gonna I

believe in the anointing I believe that

no weapon formed against us can prosper

when we are anointed we need the

anointing in our schools we need the

anointing on our teachers we need the

anointing on our students
