7 Results of Abiding in God’s Anointing

Here's an excerpt from an email I received from pastor Benny Hinn's email newsletter sometime ago. I believe you will find this very helpful. The anointing is the overflow of Christ in your life! It comes to us as we spend time in God’s Word, seek Him with our whole heart, and worship Him. Jesus said: “If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you” (John 15:7). We increase the anointing by spending time in His presence.

Return To Jesus

This is a call to all those who have gone astray! If you abandon the faith - Kingdom of God, the ways of Jesus Christ - because of how church leadership or folks treated you in the past, and go into the ways of the world - the lust of the flesh, lust of money, debauchery, etc; I pray you find your way back like the prodigal son before it's too late.
