Identify anointed people
2 Kings 2:8 And Elijah took his mantle, and wrapped [it] together, and smote the waters, and they were divided hither and thither, so that they two went over on dry ground.
Elijah separated the waters of Jordan by the anointing, he stopped rain from falling by the anointing etc. Did he do all these by his power? No but by the anointing.
We are all in this world and are subject to like passions. The temptations that attack us are similar, the hardships notwithstanding are also present to all yet there are men who by grace rise above those limitations and do mighty things as though their world is different from the rest. Such men have something you need to tap into to propel your ministry forward.
If a man can hold a meeting which can gather many people at one go, causing them to forego other pursuits of life and simply sit to listen to him talk and demonstrate God's power, such a man is anointed. When it comes to you, how many can you call upon to come for a meeting on a Monday morning and they come? Yet the former don't even entice them with any money or promises, but the anointing is at work. People actually gather many people in one go when they are being wedded, when they hold a graduation party and much more when they are being laid to rest. Give respect to some who during their lifetime not once or twice but on a weekly basis gather multitudes.
How much can you raise when you are fundraising for a cause? The highest amounts people can ever raise in their lifetime is on their big days like weddings, graduations, birthdays. But in building your home, or starting a business, how much can you raise from well wishers? There's a saying that goes, one can contribute to your wedding but may fail to do so when you're starting a business or paying tuition for a child or even putting food on the table of your marital home. But fear men who can raise a lot of money to the cause if God and yet people also supply to their needs and wants without them begging them so abundantly that some call it luxury. We know that many resent giving especially to godly activities but anointed men find no difficulty raising money regardless. Not that these anointed men are perfect, but even when they are having trouble in their personal lives and its allover the news, God moves mightily on their behalf seamlessly, just respect and honour such men. Governments get money through taxing people, such men get the money for church projects through freewill offerings. What causes people to give money they would have used on themselves? It's the anointing.
God has given anointing to men and women among us. Your part is to identify them, follow them and by association through their sermons or books, attending their meetings, serving them, giving to their ministries, you are tapping into their anointing that will cause you do great things too.
