Understanding the Anointing

Understanding the Anointing

saw that woman sitting before me in the congregation. Now,
God didn't show that incident to me to reveal it in front of
everybody. In fact, I never said a word to anybody. He showed it
to me in order to restore her—to get her back in fellowship with
God.
Again, while preaching down in Alabama, the anointing
suddenly came on me and I saw a mini-vision of two women
having a fight. Down the street and about a block away I saw a
church. Across the top I saw the name of it.
The two women tore each other's clothes off. One finally got
loose and ran away. The other went down to a little white frame
house that stood beside the church.
I was standing out in the yard with her, and I could see the
outline of a man standing in the doorway. He hooked the screen
door when he saw her.
She cursed him because he wouldn't agree that she was right
in beating up that other woman. She threatened to come through
the screen and whip him, too. He was ready to shut the door
when she finally left.
And then I was back in the service, and there she stood in
front of me in the prayer line, wanting to be baptized with the
Holy Spirit.
I said, "You're not going to get baptized with the Holy Spirit
until you get things straightened up." I talked to her about what I
had seen.
The Full Gospel pastor of that church didn't understand that
kind of a move of the Spirit. You see, many churches believe in
the gifts of the Spirit on paper, but not in action.
When I told him what I had seen in the Spirit, he admitted he
was the man who was standing in the doorway. The fight I had
seen had actually happened.
Now I'll share with you another way the Holy Spirit moves
with me sometimes, but not often. I "see" myself go down the
aisles and lay hands on some of the people.
