 2 Samuel chapter 5 and verse 1 until verse 5 then all the tribes of Israel came to David saying indeed we are your bone and your flesh also in the time past when Saul was a king over us you were the one who led Israel out and brought them in the Lord said to you you shall shepherd my people Israel and be ruler over Israel therefore all the elders of Israel came to the king at Hebron and king David made a covenant with them at Hebron before the Lord and they anointed David king over Israel David was 30 years old when he began to reign and he reigned 40 years in Hebron he reigned over Judah 7 years and 6 months and in Jerusalem reign 33 years over all Israel and Judah somebody say amen we have a lot of people who are very anointed very known and thorough in the scripture and I'm not going to just try to preach some kind of a thing to make you feel confused or say it's very deep I just want to share something very practical that will launch us into the sessions that we will have in just about 40 or 35 minutes or so as a local church we've been in a series that we've called it host the Holy Ghost meaning to host the Holy Spirit in our life and this morning I want to talk about how to activate the activity of the Holy Spirit in our life somebody say with me activate the activity of the Holy Spirit in my life turn to the neighbor say activate the activity of the Holy Spirit in your life turn to the other neighbor say get activated in Jesus name anointing of the Holy Spirit is one of the most important things that we need as Christians anointing of the Holy Spirit is what breaks the yoke anointing of the Holy Spirit is what heals the sick anointing of the Holy Spirit is what draws lost people to salvation anointing of the Holy Spirit is what draws young people to church what draws young people to church is not coffee and smoke machines on the stage what draws young people to church is not ribbed jeans or earrings in their ears what draws young people contrary to popular opinion is not clapping or dancing it's the anointing of the Holy Ghost anointing is not hype anointing is not volume anointing is not lights anointing is not smoke machine anointing is not ribbed jeans anointing is not even shaking and baking it's the power that produces change in people's lives anointing is one of the things that the devil will fight and attack in the last days more than anything else Satan is going to be the anti Christ anti Christ meaning he will go anti anointing he's not going to be anti Jesus he's not going to be anti savior he's going to be anti anointing that means Satan hates anointing because anointing is the only thing that can cripple his kingdom he's not afraid of good sermons he's not afraid of fabulous music he's not afraid of our facilities he's not afraid of the eloquence of our speech he's not afraid of our professional organizational skills he's not afraid of the gift of administration none of those things can cripple his kingdom like one drop of God's anointing and therefore devil will do whatever it takes to entice Christians first to hate anointing despise anointing to not embrace anointing to get offended at the anointing to trip over the anointing and to completely wash their hands off and say I don't want to do anything that has to do with the power of the Holy Spirit in the church today I don't understand it I don't like it it makes me uncountable it's crazy because it goes outside of my box of thinking I didn't grow up seeing this I didn't grow up embracing this the way I grew up we didn't do that and the devil will do whatever it takes to put you against the anointing because the anointing goes against him what we need as church is more of the anointing what you need as a Christian is more of the anointing healing is great but anointing is better because anointing produces healings see getting an apple is good having an apple tree is better getting delivered is great but getting relationship with Holy Spirit is so much better because he produces freedom he produces healing he produces salvation and he produces change in our life if you agree say amen amen David was the man who got anointed at a very young age when he was very young a prophet named Samuel came to David and he anointed him to be a king David was not old enough to be a king David wasn't ready to be a king David didn't have the education to be a king David had no connections to be a king David's dad wasn't a king nobody in his family was a king and the prophet at the very young age comes to David and says you are a king I want to encourage every person who doesn't consider themselves young today don't believe in young generation when you see signs of potential it's too late you got to believe and speak into teenagers to see signs of change you got to develop a Samuel anointing a Samuel's gift and Samuel's gift is he sees a teenager he doesn't see a kid he sees a king we have today older people who don't see a king who see a kid in a kid it doesn't take Holy Spirit to see a kid in a kid it takes the Holy Spirit to see a king inside of the kid and it doesn't take the Holy Spirit to see a king inside of the king people come up to me today and they say Vlad I listen to your messages you're so anointed I know that where were you when I was 14 when my prayer was God kill me in a car accident because I know I have no purpose in this life and my pastor did not wait until I preached my sermon good he starts speaking into me that there is a king inside of this confused and secure kid and he started to speak into me before I even believed it and those words produced something the Holy Spirit because I believed in those words start producing change inside of my heart many pastors today are threatened by young generation some pastors today they see young generation as a threat like Saul did with David when he saw David rising up he saw him as a threat to his kingdom so he wanted to kill them churches today fight against young people because they see young people as a threat if we give them too much freedom they'll act this and they'll act that young people are not a threat you're just insecure come on church help me out amen there is the rest of us we don't see young people as a threat but we see young people as victims Israel when they were walking to promised land they looked at their children and they saw them as victims they said this to God and God repeated back to them in numbers and the children that you call victims will possess the promised land God was saying sometimes we get so negative as parents that we are barely winning any breakthrough in our own life we look at our poor children and we're like if I cannot breakthrough they'll never breakthrough but you have to understand never see next generation through the lenses of your history and your experience but through the lenses of God's promise and God's plan for this if you are a young person you should be clapping right now because that means God has a plan for your life come on somebody young generation are not victims young generation are part of God's plan in the last days there is also a category of people who don't see them as victims or don't see them as threat they simply curse the next generation by calling next generation by their current situation by their current problem it's kind of like Rachel did when she was in pain of child labor and a baby popped up but it cost her so much pain and she looked at that little child and she said you're a son of my sorrow it's kind of like what the other people did when Jacob was born and say you're suplanter it's what Elisha did when his servant made a mistake and he says let leprosy of name and come upon you never curse somebody because you're hurting because you're struggling my Lord Jesus Christ saw his disciples hurting and suffering and making a lot of mistakes but you never once see Jesus making the leprosy of the sick people and his disciples because they made a mistake even an Judas Jesus didn't even curse Judas he still called him a friend even though Judas was acting like a devil when your kid is acting out and he's an alcoholic never call him an alcoholic call him a preacher with a great testimony when your child doesn't want to come to church call him a missionary simply say God will use you you're gonna be great in God's kingdom it irritates them you wanna really make them mad look at them prophetically not prophetically don't look at them through the lens of the reality look at the next generation and begin to say I see greatness in you I know God's gonna use you in these last days God is little bit short on people and so I signed you up on God's plan you got no choice I'm your mama I brought you into this world and I signed you up with God's kingdom Samuel makes David a king when David is not even ready to get a license Samuel calls him a king when he's not ready to even get married I love this about God he starts very early you see these teenagers we have pastors here today we have bishops here today we have pastors from different countries in this room do you know why every service we have teenagers represented on this stage because if the world gives them license at 16 at 15 they better be speaking in tongues healing the sick casting out devils leading people to Christ and already know how to pray how to preach and how to lead other teenagers in their school to God if at 11 they get introduced to weed that means at 12 they got to be introduced to Christ if at 14 it's an average age where a teenage girl loses her virginity this is where at 14 they have to lose their pride to God and lose their arrogance and lust at the altar give the life to God if Mormons make their teenagers missionaries before they go to universities that's why we have intership that before you go to your university give one year to God you're still going to spend that year in your university studying for a degree you are most likely will not use because you will change your majors three times prophetic word by the way for you so instead of changing your major four times and having your parents pay for your confusing trying to discover God's will for my life pause give that one year to God join an intership whether it's at our church or somebody's church and then make a difference for God before you go trying to make living in this world are you with me church so I see that Samuel anoints David at a very young age David had a calling on his life and his calling was to deliver the people of Israel from their enemies God never called people in the Old Testament to make them rich famous or because they were great God only was calling people because there was an assignment on their life to bring his people out of certain trouble that they were in when God calls a man or a woman it's not because he deserves to be called it's not because he now lives so righteous that God gives him an award when God calls somebody it's usually a response to a cry of someone else that God has been hearing as you're sitting here right now and I am speaking with you in our church there's a voice message that's currently completely full people are calling our church number and leaving their voice message there now the interesting part is you and I don't actually hear those voice messages the only person who knows that somebody's leaving a voice message is somebody who's at the office right now I want to tell you something from a large generation people are crying out to God every single day single moms who cannot pay their bills people who get heartbroken as we saw the testimonies and people who are demon possessed people who are suffering under the burden of homosexuality lesbianism people who cannot figure out their gender today people who are today maybe are rejected maybe molested maybe those who are being raped drugs before they go to sleep and you all have done it so am I when we didn't serve God we say God help me and God hears those prayers he collects those prayers in the cup and when the cup runs over in each city God picks up a phone and dials a person in that city and says I'm calling you to ministry now you think God's calling you because you're special you think God's calling you because he hates you maybe he's like Lord I want it to be a businessman and you're calling me to ministry Lord what have I done you think God is calling you to be a missionary or God is calling you to preach it's because maybe God wants to just annoy you you don't realize the only reason God's calling you is because he's answering somebody's cry it's answering somebody's cry when at the age of 16 when I fell the call of God in my life I never thought until now that I meet people who get impacted by my ministry I never thought that God knew all of that and he wasn't calling me for any other reason except for this he knew the cries of people that my life supposed to impact and God was trying to be fair with those people by answering their cry if I would answer the call do you know why healings don't happen deliverances don't happen do you know why people go to hell because we don't pick up the phone for every lost person in the world God makes a phone call many of us we have our phone unsilent or some of us we like the feeling of conviction but we love the snooze button too much we love getting convicted oh it feels so good it feels so bad but it feels so good we are spending costals especially we love feeling bad about ourselves coming to the altar oh man it hurts but it feels so good I know I will do nothing absolutely with this but it still feels good snooze snooze snooze and then we say why is God letting people go to hell why do you let him go to hell God gave his son what are you giving for that I'm on Facebook road to me and he says I can't believe in God because if he's so loving why is he letting people go to hell who don't never heard of him I said actually it's not God's fault it's yours I said get off of your Facebook and go start preaching to people if you really want people to say don't talk about it go talk to them God has done everything God can do so everybody can be saved now what he does is he calls us to be a solution and to be an answer to this world but what most of us are doing is we're fighting in the church and what style of music we're gonna have what style of clothing we're gonna have and what color of carpet are we gonna have instead of people who are going to hell English language it's not about you but I want my name I want to preserve the culture I'm in America I need to preserve my culture in the church well I hope you will be really good and confident when you meet Jesus Christ whose eyes are burning with fire and your accomplishment on this earth was I preserve the culture he says I died to save the world and you lived to preserve your culture which means nothing now in eternity it will be embarrassing we need to live for the cause of seeing people come to Jesus are you with me when we live with that calling God gives us anointing on that calling say this with me say I am anointed and I am appointed you are appointed to win souls and make disciples you are appointed because you are appointed you are already anointed come on if you believe in that give God a shout of praise right now thank you Jesus but being anointed does not mean that anointing is functional in our life a lot of times what happens is that for those of you who maybe got a new phone or you got a debit card in the mail or a credit card you have found this to be true that a credit card or debit card arrives to you and they have this thing a sticker on it that it cannot be used until it gets what's the word so everything is there it's your card it has your name on it it's connected to your account everything is there it's just if you go to ATM or you go anywhere it will not work what? come on say El Camino activate it so I want to share with you right now three things that activate the anointing of the Holy Spirit or the power of the Holy Spirit the first one is desperation somebody say desperation come on say desperation a lot of times when you discover you are called by God and you start to get desperate for God like never before you become so hungry for God that you begin to notice that it's not just you speaking now it's not just you ministering right now it is the Holy Spirit moving through you are you with me number two it's not only desperation somebody say association say association so not only you are desperate but you have to also associate yourself with certain kind of people you know we know that the quote that says a feather they fly together the Bible says that people who walk together with the wise they will become wise when you connect yourself many times with people who are anointed it robs off on you right same thing as the opposite if you always hang out with people who curse f-bombs will slip out of your mouth if you surround yourself with people who are poor you will be like that if you surround yourself with people who are walking with God seeing people saved, seeing people delivered it will quickly begin to rub off on you that's one of the reasons I don't listen to anything I want to listen to on YouTube or on my phone I don't even listen to all the preachers I want to listen to because I want to have exactly in my ministry and in my life what I listen to because through listening to someone reading a book watching somebody's videos there is an act of impartation into your life so you receive activation through association and the third thing is impartation so the way we get activated is when we get desperate when we surround ourselves with people who walk with God and number three when we get impartation now for David Samuel came he took a jar of oil and he poured on David's head and when the oil touched him and Samuel prayed for him and pronounced the blessings the spirit of God came upon David at that moment and because David was careful enough to continue to surround himself with anointed people like Samuel Nathan Prophet and others and because David was careful enough to continue being hungry for God that anointing grew with him it didn't die now I want to point out something that's very important and it's been a painful experience for me when I was younger David received impartation without physical manifestation David did not shake did not fall did not speak in tongues and didn't prophesy nothing happened on the outside a lot of times apostles and she whoever the pastor that you look up to people come up to them and they say pray for me so that I will walk in the same grace that you walk in or like tomorrow is going to happen what apostles going to pray for everyone and many of us will experience absolutely nothing David had exactly same experience Samuel prayed for him no shaking no vibrating no falling no speaking in tongues no prophesying nothing this is what I found out when you receive impartation and nothing your body doesn't react you're still anointed if your mind reacts King Saul was anointed and there was reaction he started to prophesy he went he saw the prophets and he started to say thus says the Lord one time when there was anointing King Saul vibrated on the floor and shook all night but one thing about King Saul is that nothing in his mind ever changed he didn't go from son of Kish to become an anointed man his body reacted better than his mind and therefore on his inauguration Saul was hiding behind bags David never experienced any physical but mentally something shifted in David when Samuel prayed for him he says that's it God is with me, the spirit is with me and when a lion comes David doesn't run David runs at the lion unlike Saul who hides he runs at problems he begins to experience God's supernatural favor because real importation is not when your body reacts it's when your mind transforms about five years ago I was in a very desperate situation in my life where nothing was wrong physically nothing was wrong financially nothing was wrong in any other area except one spiritually I started to notice that we see healings on our conferences but I don't see them personally in my life we proclaim salvation salvation salvation but when the altar call was given nobody's coming to the altar call we're not baptizing people and our church is very very small and I decided to take a desperate I became very very desperate where I took all of my money that I had and we gave them away to one particular ministry that sees many people come to know Christ and we asked this ministry to pray for me and my wife so that we can see salvation I didn't ask for miracles I just wanted to see salvation and I also wanted to see God's favor in the area of spiritual walk with him I met with this particular minister and I asked him to pray for me for the impartation of seeing people coming to know Christ he took my hands it was one minute twenty seconds prayer I haven't recorded on my phone he prayed very calmly and nothing happened I walked out and I was like man just empty my whole account at least a shaking baking that's a heavy price I'm like I know some people who shake if the man of God comes two or three miles of them and my body I'm like one of those some of you hear them my body is like Baptist body or something it just doesn't respond to any costal experiences like Ben he comes in everybody falls and I stand anybody I mean unless then after a while when I see that he keeps pushing me I'll just go down to help you so you don't get discouraged I just don't react my body I'm not one of those people who doesn't react and when I left the meeting with this minister of God and I had two things to do one of them and I said Lord nothing happened and God says you choose what happened he says do you believe in the prayer that he just prayed he says if you do accept it and begin to see yourself that you're anointed by God to see salvation and to see healing and that's what I did I switched my mind I know people who that minister and many others prayed for who shook on the floor for three days and couldn't stop speaking in tongues nothing changed in their life I'd rather have no manifestation in my body but a transformation in my mind and change in my life and change in my ministry than shake and beg but there's no results and there's no food the Bible says your life is transformed by the renewing of your mind not vibration of your body some of you can be free the moment you get touched your heart God set you free but I didn't shook but the demon didn't say anything praise God you receive freedom and you live out of that freedom the Bible says who the son says free is free indeed but it also says you shall know the truth and the truth will set you free sometimes God sets you free and you shake and beg and we love this stuff but sometimes God touches you with the sense of knowing something changed and you walk out with the renewed mind and your life changes King Saul was vibrating but he never changed his mind David there was no physical manifestation but his mind shifted and his life was forever transformed same thing happens with our team they see more healings I think sometimes even people who do healing ministries on a weekly basis they live normal jobs have businesses what happened something shifted in their mind I'm the person God can use it can happen today I don't have to have a healing crusade to see God move through me I don't have to be a pastor to see the Lord use me to influence other people and as they go about their life God uses them why not because impartation happened through shaking because impartation happened through revelation that God has anointed me when I got prayed and that's it come on let's put our hands together for Jesus Christ I want you to see David got anointed David did not apply for being a king David didn't go searching who's hiring for being a king and David didn't come to Saul and say FYI just letting you know I'm next in line you better start training me when you're anointed never grab for a platform seek for opportunity where you can serve when you finally figure out that you're special grab a vacuumer and learn how to vacuum your church when you finally come out of their low surface seam make sure you learn how to put gloves and clean toilets because David's anointing did not demand a platform it sought for an opportunity where David can serve same David anointed to kill giants after playing music for Saul and getting rid of the demons from Saul Saul says you're free and David you know what David did went back to be with the sheep because there's one thing about anointed people they have to maintain a small view of themselves otherwise that anointing will kill them just because every person you prayed for in the mall got healed don't grow wings remain small in your eyes because God came to Saul when Saul started to make mistakes and Samuel said this to Saul from God he says when you were small in your eyes he says I picked you but now your head got swollen anointed people must also learn never to take offense when opportunities are presented to them that are below their anointing you asked me to be an usher did you know I'm a prophet I am an apostle why am I sitting on the back real apostle real prophet real pastor is somebody who is just like their savior who one day can give prophecies walk on water step down, gird himself and wash somebody's feet if you cannot pick up a towel I have an audacity to question not the anointing but your crazy character God is not interested in building superheroes God is not looking to create justice league or revengeous league God is building his kingdom and everyone in his kingdom from the guy who holds the microphone to every person there is first a servant and I want to tell you something right now in our church we have this policy if God really really really anointed you I want to see results on the street and in kids ministry some of you heard when Ivan got up and spoke and God uses him powerfully in healing a year ago I remember when Ivan just moved from California and he came up and one of the things he wanted to do is to be more involved in church and I said Ivan we go street evangelizing why are you not on the streets and I remember he looked at me and was like well that's below me if serving is below you leading is above you if you're too small if you're too big I'm sorry for serving and you're too small for leading and I told him I was like Ivan until you used by God on the streets and secondly until you serve the kids in the kids zone and I hear healings from the kids the stage is no place for people with ambition stage is a place for people with the heart and the anointing and today when he goes to kids ministry for salvation, two healings two baptism of the Holy Spirit and all the kids love him why? and he doesn't preach at the church he preaches at the streets when I before I preached at the church I preached at homeless shelter and I preached at jails I stopped going to homeless shelters because we would do fights after the sermon one side would fight another side it was a great sermon they loved each other I ended the sermon and they started a war there I couldn't pass through because they were all throwing stuff and I stopped going to jails because they would pat me three times each time because I was 21 and they thought I was bringing drugs to the inmates because Russians who are 21 don't go preaching in jail the only jail ministry led by Russians it's usually about 60 and above not 21 year olds I preached first at homeless shelter then in jail and so I had my two practices and then on Wednesday night I preached to a crazy youth group they didn't fight and they didn't pat me they didn't pat me down but I want to tell you something if you want to be used by God if you're anointed don't look for a platform look for a place to serve and sometimes that place of serving is not going to be anything special God is the only one who knows how to connect the dots when you serve you may say if I'm going to go serve nobody is going to notice me you don't want people to notice you you want God to notice you and put you people if they put you here they'll put you down from here whoever puts you there has the power to take you down but if people don't put you there they can never take you down what if his wife can took Joseph's reputation she couldn't take his anointing she ripped everything from him but she couldn't take his grace and the favor of God upon his life but when God puts you in there when God gives you the platform there was an opportunity to kill soul and grab a platform for his anointing but he says I trust God to put me in there and when absolutely to take his platform David walked off and he says if God doesn't want me there I don't want to be there but I don't have to shine I want you to remember this when you're anointed don't look for a place to shine look for a place to serve don't look for a place to shine look for a place to serve I'm bringing this message to an end and we're going to pray right now the important thing that I wanted to share with you is this David got anointed as a teenager to be a king only at 30 years of age he saw a drop of the promise of God is when he was leading one tribe tribe of Judah for 7 months for 7 years and 6 months and for 7 years he was faithful with one tribe this great king anointed by God but he's only managing one tribe for 7 years and after 7 and a half years God saw his faithfulness God saw that he didn't use it as an excuse or compare himself to other kings who had more God saw that he grew and he became stronger with that one tribe he didn't say God why did you let me go through all of this and normally you gave me one tribe God I deserve more one tribe's on the day of his anointing and I didn't get nothing I fought and I wrestled and I finally got the breakthrough and it came in the form of one tribe God I'm offended David never did that he had one tribe he managed that tribe he worked with that tribe he grew that tribe he became stronger the house of David became stronger the house of Saul became weaker and weaker and then came a point he was managing one tribe that God said David I'm going to give you 12 tribes now God's anointing will begin a process in your life where God will give you in small nuggets of the things he promised to you some people get everything but watch those people those things they get never last because they didn't stretch they didn't grow their mind didn't shift the structure wasn't developed to maintain what God gave them it came in it ripped everything apart and two years later everything is back where it used to be and what God does with David and he will do that with you and he will do that with me is that he first makes you who you are you begin to serve you begin to be faithful and finally he gives you a breakthrough just the tribe of Judah and instead of comparing yourself to another pastor instead of comparing yourself to another person instead of complaining and saying God I deserve more God when is my harvest going to come listen work the tribe of Judah for 7 and a half years work the tribe of Judah for the 7 and a half years and there is God's timing where God will measure all the rest of the 11 tribes and in one day he will not add tribes by years he will add them all at once acceleration will take place when Jesus came on this earth he was announced to be a son of God at the river Jordan later on he got announced to be a son of God by the church you know that Jesus is still waiting to be announced as a son of God by the world Jesus only got one tribe he is still waiting for the 11 tribes he is still waiting for the fullness where every knee will bow and every tongue will confess even Jesus is still waiting for his full inheritance if you are in that place right now you have gotten that one tribe I want to tell you something I want to encourage you today to activate yourself in the Holy Spirit I want to encourage you today to pray for the sick I want to encourage you today to witness the people I want to encourage you today the anointing that you got whenever you got it is laying dormant until you stop being lazy and stop waiting for God to move you move and God will follow we are not in the Moses time where Moses waited Joshua stepped in and God split the door we are in the time where God says these signs will follow we don't follow the signs behind us we take a step, God takes a step you pray for the sick, God says I will heal you witness to somebody, God says I will save them you will pray for somebody it's freedom, God says I will deliver them you move, move don't wait for the microphone don't wait for somebody to give you recommendation don't wait for somebody to open the door for you you go find a place to serve not a place to shine but a place to serve it measures you a next step and you will notice that where things will shift in your life things will shift in your family things will shift in your tiny ministry and there will be that one tribe don't ever be a man who took one talent remember in the New Testament and what he did with that talent with a bad attitude he buried it, he says what's the use of this if it's not wealth he buried it and God came back to him and he says you lazy and you wicked servant if God is using you in words of knowledge that only heals people's back never be embarrassed of that make sure everybody's back is healed if God uses you to witness to people in the way that he gives you prophetic words about their destiny and you see somebody who's doing a crusade make sure you use that one talent and one tribe until God himself measures another level of the grace in your life never compare never complain and never grumble about what God has entrusted you with because that's not his spoiled brat attitude kills the trouble of God's grace and he stops the timing of God to bring a change in our life I just decree and declare that it's gonna be an acceleration at God's time but until then work your tribe work your talent if you got those 20 people make sure that those 20 people are the best 20 people make sure that you're doing today what you would do if you would have a thousand people you pray today like you would pray when you would have a thousand people you fast today like you would fast as if you would have a thousand people you today smile you today preach like you would have a thousand people now make sure you don't spend your money like you would have a thousand people because you'd be broke. But everything else, you develop your spirit by saying, God, you don't know that you rest upon my life. I am not going to be offended if I don't have a place to shine. I'll look for a place to serve. And God, if you entrust me with one tribe, I promise one thing. I'll never stop being hungry. I'll never stop being holy. And I'll never stop being humble. My head is not going to blow up in pride. My heart is not going to get big in offense. And if somebody doesn't cheat me right, if somebody talks about me, if somebody has their expert opinion about me, I am not going to let that get into my head or into my heart. I'm going to be the same man when I had nothing. And I only had you, but I'm going to be the same man. And God, you can count on that. God sees that. He will bless you. Honest rise, Trophy.
