friends and partners of Kingdom

connection when you cry like that when

you have nothing but a plea that says

I’m not trying to defend what I’ve said

or what I’ve done and what I’ve got on

the inside but I am asking you to

cleanse me he’ll never turn

[Music]

verse 22 of Exodus chapter 30 moreover

the Lord spoke to Moses saying take for

yourself quality spices 500 shekels of

liquid myrrh half as much of

sweet-smelling cinnamon 250 shekels of

sweet-smelling cane or calamus some

translations say 500 shekels of cassia

according to the shekel of the sanctuary

and a hen which is a container that’s a

basically five quarts of olive oil in my

Bible that I’m reading it has a heading

over these verses called the holy

anointing all and that is exactly what

it is this is God’s recipe for the

anointing and he says that it was to be

made of five different ingredients the

precious anointing all that they used to

anoint kings and priests and for so many

other occasions it had to have five

ingredients specific a specific recipe

was given for the anointing all and I

want to speak to you for a few moments

today on the subject of the five

ingredients of an anointed life don’t

you want to live an anointed life not

just a life but an anointed life and the

five ingredients are found in this text

and they must be present in your life to

produce an anointed life the recipe for

the anointing and he said the first

thing that you are to put in the

anointing oil is a spice called mer mer

is a fragrance that comes from the trunk

of a coma for a tree in Arabia it’s

produced in the form of Tears alcohol is

added to remove any impurities and

listen carefully then it is steamed and

as the stain passes through the gun

it’s melted into a flowing ol and that

all becomes a perfume myrrh is a

beautiful picture of meekness and

Submission and I’ll make that clear in

just a moment the number one ingredient

for an anointed life is meekness and

submission to God’s will

meekness is not weakness meekness is

strength in harness for service meekness

is the raging river no longer flowing

wide and wild but submitting to the dam

so that from it might come

hydroelectricity its submitting all that

you have in obedience to God and when

you do that the anointing is attracted

to your life submission and meekness is

the wild untamed powerful stallion

submitting to the bit the bridle the

saddle in the tug of the reins the Bible

says in numbers chapter 12 and verse 3

that Moses was the meekest man who ever

lived how did it come to be how did he

become so mink it was because it took

one third of his life to get to that

place forty years was spent in the

wilderness stripped of the marble

columns of Egypt stripped of the silk in

the satin in the prosperous place that

he had grown up most of his life and now

he finds himself in a desert and from

the high life that he was living in

Egypt – 40 years of tending sheep in the

desert but during those 40 years see all

of you want to be instantaneous

successful people but 40 years of Lading

and calling on God until rebellion was

gone it just was steamed out of him self

wheel was gone in submission and

meekness to God

began to happen

stubbornness was burned out of him the

steam of God spirit had passed through

the gum of a man’s very fiber and now

the oil is flowing out of his life and

God sends a burning bush and speaks to

him and God’s watching him and his

reaction and the first thing he does is

in meekness he takes his shoes off as a

sign of reverence and respect to the

presence of God then he listens to the

voice of God because he knows you’ll

hear many voices but that voice is the

one I must follow and God says I’m going

to teach you faith Moses I’m gonna teach

you faith that confronts your greatest

fear go to Pharaoh and tell him I am

sent you and in submission to God in

great meekness understanding that my job

is just to obey God and let the god deal

with the consequences I’m just going and

submission and in total meekness doing

what God told me to do and God in that

said to him Moses don’t ever forget

there is a place by me and you can be in

that place you can settle for the

multitudes at the foot of the mountain

or you can come halfway up with the

seventy holders or you can come up to a

place of nearness to me for there is a

place by me and when you get to that

place of meekness and when you get to

that place of total submission where you

say what Mary said to those servants

whatever he says unto you do it when you

reach that point when you can carry out

Mary’s orders and whatever he tells you

to do you are submitted you are meek

enough to just do it God says now you

are discovering the first step to an

anointed life and you’ll never be able

to submit to your husband to your wife

to the elders to leadership you’ll never

be able to submit to them until you

submit to God the second ingredient for

an anointed life was something called

the cinnamon came from a tree that grew

30 to 40 feet and the remarkable thing

about it was it grew straight up they

say that it grew so straight that it had

no curves and they would take the leaves

in the fruit of that upright tree and

squeeze them and out of that would come

a fragrant all they made candles for the

king of Simon that had a beautiful

fragrance the second ingredient of an

anointed life is called uprightness or

how you stand when I talk about standing

upright I’m not talking about you acting

like you are so self-righteous that your

own spiritual steals looking down and

all the unspiritual people who don’t

live as pure and as clean as you do we

don’t tower down on people looking down

on people but there’s a truth that when

we take an upright stand when we stand

up for what is right the anointing is

attracted to our life did you know the

Old Testament said that if a man had a

crooked back he was disqualified from

being a priest in the temple it’s

because it affected the way that he

stood and God wanted to make a point he

wanted us to know that our stand are

upright stand matters it matters to

whether or not the anointing is

attracted to your life if he had a

crooked back he couldn’t stand straight

and then God said in his qualifications

for priesthood if his back is crooked

he can’t stand straight he doesn’t

qualify God is saying to you and I I

want you to stand for truth added light

brings added blessing and added blessing

brings added responsibility and this is

an hour when we need to stand for truth

stand in his righteousness not your own

Billy Crabtree said on Christ the solid

rock I stand and every other rock

a shamrock and that’s the truth I rise

today to tell you that if you are

standing in your own righteousness you

will not make it but what is the basis

of your stand I point you to Jesus I

point you to his blood shed on the cross

and without one plea but that thy blood

was shed for me that is how we stand

thirdly we stand on his promises you

need to understand you either have a

living faith or a dying faith whose

report will you believe stand on the

promise of divine healing you may have

gotten a bad report from the doctor I

respect and appreciate the doctors but

they do not have the last word stand on

the promises of God that by His stripes

we are healed with long life he’ll

satisfy us and show us his salvation

Martin Luther was asked do you know the

whole world seems to be against you he

said good I’m against the whole world

there comes a moment where we have to

get a divine backbone and take a stand

for what is right and it doesn’t matter

what public opinion says about it and it

doesn’t matter what people think just do

what God tells you to do and when you

are upright in your stand it drawls the

anointing the Bible said in Hebrews 11

that Moses made a choice to say no to

Egypt and yes to God there was a yes and

there was a no I wonder if there’s any

knows in your life are there any is

everything yes yes bless me yes yes but

do you ever get an O in your life where

the Holy Spirit says no don’t do that

don’t go there don’t touch that don’t

listen to that don’t look at that we

don’t just need yeses in our life we

need a stand an upright stand that says

no to sin no to the world no

flesh no to the devil get out of my

house get out of my mind get out of my

heart you’ve got to save him both say

yes and no to God because when you say

no to the things God tells you to say no

to his favor and his anointing begins to

flow in your direction first John 2:14 I

have written to you young men that the

Word of God

abide in you and you have overcome the

evil one the only way you’re going to

overcome the evil one is to have the

word in you and to take a stand

beware of charismatic shortcuts to

spirituality there are none some things

can’t be improved on you can’t improve

on water try to take a shower in Pepsi

it doesn’t work good you can’t improve

on breathing air try any other thing for

three minutes and see how it works out

and there are certain fundamental things

like prayer and worship and reading the

word and listening to the word and

coming to church and tithing and giving

that cannot be improved on just do it

and when you do it God’s blessing and

his anointing will be attracted to your

life these things cause the anointing to

be attracted to your life four times in

the book of Ephesians God says stand

stand stand stand when it looks like

your prayers aren’t working when it

looks like the fasting isn’t working

when it looks like the Bible isn’t

working when it feels like the dream is

not working what do you do you don’t

quit you don’t get angry you don’t throw

in the towel you stand four times and

when you’ve done all to stand stand

there for with an upright stand that

says I will not back down from what God

has told me to do the third ingredient

of an anointed life is given when he

said sweet Cain

or one translations is calamus the cane

or calamus was a frag was a fragrant

read read that grew in swamps and the

head of that read was filled with all

this is interesting they knew that it

wasn’t ready to be used until the head

of that read was bent over and almost

touched the ground

it speaks of bending low in humility if

you want the ingredient that will

attract the anointing of God you must

have humility John 13 and 5 Jesus had a

level of humility that most of us do not

understand in this proud society one by

one the big smelly peasant fisherman

won’t Bend with grindy sand and filth

and dirt on their feet and Jesus Christ

God in the flesh bent low bent over and

began to wash their feet in an ultimate

act of humility the hands that washed

those feet were the hands that created

the universe from magnificence to the

menial task of foot washing it was his

answer to the question who shall be

greatest in your kingdom so if you have

any ambitions if you want to be great

bring your basin bring your towel and

bring your water and wash feet because

if you’re not willing to been low in

humility and serve people God says it’s

not about your name it’s not about your

popularity it’s not about your fame it’s

about serving people Psalms 84 said I’d

rather be a doorkeeper in the house of

God I don’t have to be the first seat I

don’t have to be in the limelight but I

want to do something I want to wash

somebody’s feet maybe it’s in the

nursery maybe it’s in the parking lot

May

be assuring maybe it’s small grouping

maybe it’s something but I must do

something that serves people and when

you do the anointing is drawn to that

kind of humility no humility no

anointing the problem is the more God

blesses us we lose the humility we lose

the willingness to be bent low in

humility but Jesus was as great as you

could get and he modeled humility in

washing the disciples feet the more

humility you have the more anointing God

will put on your life walk in humility

and then the fourth ingredient for an

anointed life is cassia this is

interesting they said there were 400

types that grew in in tropical climates

and one of the things that it produces

is something called Cena and older

people may know that that that phrase

but it has and was used for inner

cleansing in other words when something

when someone was sick they would take

this particular oil and they would pour

it down castle or they would pour it

down I wrote down depth charges it was

used for inner cleansing in other words

if you won’t the anointing every now and

then you need an inner cleansing you

need everything inside of you to be

brought to the cross and be brought to

the altar and you need to go back to

saying God search me and try me and see

if there be any wicked thing in me lord

I need an inner cleansing am i letting

things get into my life that are not

pleasing and hindering the anointing

before it’s a deed it’s a thought and

before it’s an action it’s an attitude

so cleanse me search me know my faults

know my inward thoughts Oh God and let

me be cleansed in

wordly and when your clans inwardly you

have to clean up your temple you have to

clean up the areas of your temple the

study of your mind what are you feeding

what are you putting in your mind every

now and then we need to just clean it

out and fill it up with the Word of God

again we listen to all the negative all

of this that the other the noise and we

need to clean out the study of our minds

you need to clean out the dining room of

your appetites you need to clean up the

workshop of your talents you need to

clean up the play room of your pleasures

and pastimes and entertainments Malachi

said he will sit as a refiner of silver

he’ll keep turning the heat up until the

scum comes up and he’ll scrape it off

until pure silver is nothing nothing

that is left but pure silver and then it

says this he’ll sit as a refiner Speier

and fuller soap fire on the inside and

soap for the outside he says there are

times when I want you to come to church

and I want you to get cleaned out and

cleaned up I want you to come in one way

with your study of your mind and your

appetites and all these things that have

gotten a grip on your life I want you to

be completely cleaned out and when you

do when you submit to the Word of God

and come with a plea of God forgive me

God cleanse me god I’m strange so far

from the cross I haven’t really really

really been in your presence in a long

time so Lord cleanse me when you cry

like that when you have nothing but a

plea that says I’m not trying to defend

what I’ve said or what I’ve done and

what I’ve got on the inside but I am

asking you to cleanse me he’ll never

turn that kind of person away and he who

began a good work in you will complete

it clap your hands on that verse that’s

a good one

inner cleansing attracts the anointing

inner cleansing attracts the anointing

and then one more he said you are to

take a container five quarts the biggest

component of the anointing is something

called olive oil and olive oil

represents and speaks of the Holy Spirit

in other words he’s saying be filled

with the Holy Spirit olive oil was used

to cook food in ancient days it fed the

Holy Spirit feeds us they would use it

to bring rest and comfort they would put

it on them after a long journey the Holy

Spirit is called the comforter and he

anoints our head with all the Good

Samaritan used the olive oil and poured

it with wine into the wounds of the man

who had been robbed and it healed his

wounds and his hurts the anointing all

of the Holy Spirit can heal our bodies

our minds our relationships our broken

hearts it was used to anoint kings and

priests and prophets and if you haven’t

heard anything else here’s what I hear

the Lord saying in Psalms 92 David said

I shall be anointed with fresh oil

there’s nothing worse than stale oh

there’s nothing worse than old old it

attracts flies according to the

scripture and when they get in the oil

and Satan is Beelzebub the Lord of the

Flies so when we’re living off

yesterday’s all fighting today’s battles

with yesterday’s touches and alls and

anointings

it attracts flies it attracts the attack

of the enemy and there’s a stench to

yesterday’s all that’s why David said

I’m crying out and I shall be anointed

with fresh all fighting today’s battles

and depending on yesterday’s all is a

futile thing and it’s a it’s a

humiliating defeating thing that happens

yesterday’s all is miserable as a

substitute for fresh all today the five

ingredients of an anointed life meekness

up brightness humility inner cleansing

and a fresh infilling of the Holy Spirit

I wrote this last night I am a candidate

for a fresh anointing

every day we need a fresh anointing

there’s nothing that can take the place

of a fresh move of God in your life

money can’t the house the car everything

that you think is so important and they

are and it’s sometimes we just get so

obsessed with these material things that

we forget what really makes us happy I

shall be anointed with fresh or is

anybody here hungry for the qualities of

an anointed life would anybody like to

bend low in humility anybody like an

inner cleansing that everything unlike

Jesus would be washed out anybody here

like to walk in meekness and Submission

instead of arrogance and pride and

stubbornness and rebellion anybody here

say I wish I could get filled with the

Holy Spirit all over again lose myself

in a river of worship end up on the

floor somewhere praying in other tongues

as the spirit gives me the utterance

that stuff scares you just hang around

we’ll get all that fear out of you

because that’s where the life is that’s

where the joy is hallelujah

I shall be anointed with fresh oil I

need it I want it I’m a candidate for a

fresh anointing

closing moments I want to talk to you

about something that moved me and I

don’t think I’ll ever be the same God

has opened some unprecedented

opportunities for this ministry over the

last several years and I can tell you

the work that we’re doing in Israel is

critical just in the last few weeks

rockets if you’ve been watching the news

have been fired in injuries and chaos

has plagued a tiny region bordering Gaza

in Egypt a tiny region of Israel

it’s the Eshkol region and there we’re

building the ash coal region trauma

center we broke ground on it it is under

construction

I believe we’re fulfilling the Biblical

prophecy as Isaiah spoke in the fortieth

chapter when he said comfort ye comfort

Imai people and that’s exactly what

we’re doing the center that we’re

building will have an indoor playground

for over 2,500 children where they can

play in dream and grow in safety along

with elderly Holocaust survivors in that

very area I’m not going to tell you what

to gild I’m only going to ask you to

seek the Lord and see what he would have

you do and as we do this together I

believe God will pour out blessings on

you you’ve never seen before please do

your very best we need your help on this

project here’s my announcer to tell you

how each year thousands of rockets are

fired into cities neighborhoods and

schools across

in Eshkol an area immediately next to

the Gaza Strip a when the sirens sound

families children and elderly alike have

just 15 seconds to take cover in bomb

shelters the trauma of terror ripples

through all generations from Holocaust

survivors to the very youngest of

children but it’s because of your

generosity that we have been able to
