David was the youngest of eight sons, and apparently no one saw greatness in him. When Samuel came to his house to anoint a king, David’s father didn’t even consider David as a candidate. He was just a kid out watching the sheep. But when David received the anointing, everything changed. The anointing made all the difference for David. And it still makes all the difference for us today…

I don’t want substitutes we’re living in
an hour of substitutes in the body of
Christ and we think we can substitute
the anointing of the Holy Spirit for
other things when there is nothing that
will get the job done like the anointing
exodus chapter 30 verse 23 moreover the
Lord spoke to Moses saying take for
yourselves quality spices some Bibles
translations say principal spices one
translation says the best spices and
then he lists five different kinds and
then in verse 24 he gives the quantity
of how much he says you are to take a
hint of olive oil that is five quarts of
olive oil and put five ingredients into
it and it will become the anointing oil
verse twenty-nine you shall consecrate
them that they may be most holy whatever
touches them must be holy you shall
anoint Aaron and his sons and consecrate
them verse 31 and you should speak to
the children of Israel saying listen you
may think well that was back then for
there them and there saying this shall
be a holy anointing all to me that’s God
speaking throughout your generations I
want you to do this from generation to
generation it shall not be poured on
man’s flesh nor shall you make any other
like it I don’t want it substitute it I
want it to be the real thing
according to its composition its holy
and it shall be holy to you whoever
compounds any like it or whoever puts
any of it on an outside or some
translations say a stranger shall be cut
off from his people I remembered a
message that impacted my life I don’t
remember every detail or even specific
points of the sermon but the title that
this particular preacher famous preacher
of days gone by who has gone on to be
with the Lord his name was rage Hughes
dr. rage Hughes he preached a sermon
that became very famous to a generation
of preachers before my generation like
my dad and others and that sermon was
called the anointing makes the
difference the anointing makes the
how many of you know there’s a
difference between singing and anointed
singing there’s a difference between
preaching and anointed preaching there’s
a difference between having Church and
having an anointed church service
because the anointing makes the
difference and I want to I want to steal
his title because I believe that is what
will make the difference in your life
you know if you’re a business person we
think the anointing is just for people
in the ministry but the anointing makes
the difference in the marketplace the
anointing will make your gift and and
the call of God and the gifts of God on
your life become powerful and fruitful
what makes us effective is the anointing
first John 2 and verse 20 says but you
have an unction from the Holy One and
that unction that you have received of
him that anointing abides within you
when the anointing is upon someone there
is an unction behind you there is we
used to I used to preach a sermon wisent
evangelist and I called it the unction
to function amen and there’s something
about the anointing that gives you the
unction it quickens you it causes you to
have the ability to do something it
graces you the anointing the word anoint
means to smear own or to rub on that’s
what we will do we will we will take the
anointing all and touch and smear on our
rub bone and that anointing will have a
fragrance and a smell it’s amazing to me
that he said you are to take a hint of
all which is five quarts of all our six
quarts six quarts of all there’s a
symbolic message that when they would
anoint in the in the Bible days they
would pour six quarts of this anointing
all and it wasn’t just a little mercy
drop from heaven it wasn’t just a little
dab would do you it wasn’t just a little
smear and maybe put a little dot on
their head or a cross with all but they
poured six quarts of all read Psalms 133
the Bible said
the old flowed down Aaron’s hair down
past his beard onto his garment down to
his feet he was drenched in the
anointing and I believe that there is a
need today in the church for that kind
of anointing
we don’t need little mercy drops we
don’t need we’re not fighting smaller
things we’re fighting bigger things than
we’ve ever fought before and there’s an
anointing that the Bible talks about in
Joel that said in the last days I will
pour out my spirit I’m not gonna just
touch you or momentarily bless you I
want there to be a saturation of the
anointing I want you to be drenched in
the anointing I want you to have an
anointing upon your life it’s not just
for preachers and prophets it’s for
every one of you and he said you can be
anointed I love the fact that he said
that when you anoint you are to you are
to have fresh oh listen to this verse
Psalms 92 into verse 10 he said I shall
be anointed with fresh all there’s a lot
of people in the church today who are
stale in their anointing they’re stale
in what God is doing in their life
because it’s an old anointing it was
something that happened way back there
in some service a long time ago and
that’s when you know that’s when the
Bible talks about that that there are
flies in the ointment there’s a verse
that actually says that if you don’t
have fresh all the Flies are attracted
to that or north at that point mint that
you have in you and we have to have a
fresh anointing from the Holy Spirit I
love the fact that we can we don’t have
to be repulsive we don’t have to come
there’s that old smell of religion that
gets on us sometimes and we just do in
church and the old machine clanks own
and it’s just another Sunday and it’s
just another church and it’s just
another singing and it’s just another
sermon but when the freshness of the
anointing comes when the touch of
the anointing comes when the power of
the Holy Spirit comes there’s a
freshness to it there’s a quickening to
it there’s an anointing on it I love
that
he said the anointing can do what other
things cannot do when the anointing is
there it begins to permeate the
atmosphere when the woman broke open the
alabaster box and anointed Jesus feet
the aroma of that anointing permeated
the atmosphere there’s something about
the anointing that when it feels a room
there is an there is the odor of the
anointing and I don’t mean a physical
smell but spiritually the atmosphere the
aroma of the anointing when it feels
when somebody gets up and sings a song
the atmosphere changes when that word is
anointed it begins to change the
atmosphere there’s a sweetness there
some 72 and verse 11 said he shall come
down as rain on mowed down fresh grass
you ever walked outside after it rained
and the grass had just been cut there as
an aroma that’s what the anointing is
like when it comes you can smell the
Rose of Sharon you can smell the lily of
the valley there’s a sweetness there’s
something about there’s something that
comes on us when we sense and feel the
anointing Psalms 45 and eight said your
garments do smell of myrrh and cassia in
the ivory palaces and it makes us glad I
believe that when that high priest after
being poured six quarts of all walked
home and he had to go home in that same
outfit can you imagine
and he’s sloshing walking through the
camp and somebody’s sitting over in a
tent and probably watching TV and and
suddenly the anointed man of God walks
by and they don’t see him but somebody
turns in the tent and says what’s that
smell and they won’t look outside and
they say that’s there that’s the
anointed man of God there’s an anointing
on his life he’s leaving anointed
footprints we need all the footprints we
need an anointing on
our life and it’s not that we have to go
around say I’m anointed I’m anointed
look at me but I’m telling you when we
leave this sanctuary today God can so
anoint us that when you go back on the
job when your kids go into school when
they go off the universities the people
they don’t know what to call it but they
say there’s something different about
you there’s something unusual about you
what is it about you what do you do you
do yoga what is it about you you have a
peace about you you have a contentment
about you you have an authority about
you it’s called the anointing hallelujah
and I’m thankful that it’s available to
us today the anointing he said in verse
32 that the anointing don’t you know
there’s a difference when you get in an
anointed service Moses got anointed and
he had to put a veil over his face cuz
he was shining with the glory of God
Stephen got so anointed that the Bible
said that when he stood to preach they
couldn’t resist the spirit by which he
speak he spoke because his face was lit
up like a angel a lot of people getting
lit in the church but we need to get lit
up by the power of the anointing of the
Holy Spirit clap your hands and thank
God the anointing makes the difference
you’re not fighting your battles on your
own strength the anointing makes the
difference on your prayers on your
praise on your spirit on your house
notice the quality qualifications he
said in verse 32 upon man’s flesh shall
it not be poured what’s that about
Romans chapter 8 said they that are
after the flesh do mind the things of
the flesh to be carnally minded his
death but to be spiritually minded his
life and then it ends by saying they
that are after the flesh cannot please
God Galatians three and verse three said
having begun in the spirit are you now
made perfect by the flesh what happens
to people is when they get a little a
and a little maturity they get a little
experience in attending church they
began in the spirit they began leaning
and depending upon the anointing of the
Holy Spirit but as you get older you
just learn how to do things and he said
having begun in the spirit are you now
made perfect by the flesh there’s a lot
of people listening to me that started
in the spirit but now you’re just doing
your stuff in the flesh when you started
that ministry you started that business
you started that career you reconnected
to the anointing you were connected to
the Spirit but now have you gone so far
that you’re now leaning on the arm of
the flesh the scripture said cursed is
the man who leans to the arm of the
flesh john 6 and verse 63 said the flesh
profits nothing it is the spirit that
quickeneth it quickens you that’s called
the anointing I love the story the Bible
said in 1st Samuel 16 that when samuel
was told by god stop mourning over song
i’m gonna anoint a new king he said go
down to Jesse’s house take a bottle of
old
take a take six quarts of all and go
anoint somebody one of his sons I’ll
show you who he is and he goes down to
Jesse’s house and the Bible said that
they brought in seven of the boys and
left one of them out in the field named
David and the scripture said and I love
this it said that that that Samuel when
he saw Ilya Ilya had a stature he had a
look to him that he was presidential he
had something about him that anybody
looking at him and even the scripture
said this about him the scripture said
that he that his personal his personal
preference was surely the Lord will
anoint him
this is the prophet but he’s going by
what you can see that’s where that
famous verse comes in God’s Spirit
quicken him and said don’t pour the oil
on him cuz he looks like it and he’s
waiting on a promotion
for man looks on the outward appearance
but God sees the heart and that’s not
the one and he starts to pour the oil
and the Holy Spirit says don’t pour the
oil on him and they bring seven of them
in and he won’t pour the oil on any of
them and if that’d been me I’d have felt
bad I’d have put a little dab or
something but but he he said I’m not
gonna and I like his wording in King
James he said I won’t anoint this I
don’t know what this is but I’m not
gonna put my anointing on it it looks
good on the outside but the heart isn’t
pure the heart it write the heart isn’t
clean God looks at our heart he said is
there not anybody else in your house
Jesse and Jesse said well I did have one
other boy but I don’t think he’s gonna
mount too much he’s out in the field and
watch what was the out in the field
doing he was out in the field singing
songs he was out in the field play in
his heart and writin and I could see it
in my mind and as one of the boys goes
to retrieve him from tending the Sheep
and he’s jotting down you know he wrote
the 23rd psalm the Lord is my shepherd I
shall not want he maketh nobody out
there he’s just worshiping in private
this is how you get anointed he just
worships God when nobody’s looking
and sure enough he calls him in and when
Samuel sees him he gets quickened and He
pours the old on him and he says you’re
gonna be the next king of Israel and the
Bible said the anointing came on David
from that day forward there’s something
powerful that can happen wouldn’t you
like to leave this service and say from
that day forward I never fight without
the anointing see all of us have
different gifts all of us have different
I love the fact that when when when Saul
said hey if you’re gonna go fight that
giant take my brass shield and take my
armor and take my all my sword and all
that he said no thank you
I’ll just take this little this little
slingshot in this little these five
little rocks that I’ve got because I’ve
got the anointing on it I’d rather have
the anointing on a little
than a whole lot without the anointing
and you may not have the ability
somebody else has you may not have the
gifting that somebody else has but if
you just say god here’s what I’ve got
would you anoint it in would you use it
you’d be amazed that there’s no child
you won’t face that won’t fall when you
comment him in the name of the Lord with
fear 19 because the anointing makes the
difference clap your hands and praise
the Lord
oh I’m feeling a little bit of my
anointing now hallelujah there is a
difference when the anointing comes
there is a freedom when the anointing
comes there is an unction when the
anointing comes man may be mad and
poking across their arms and sucking
their teeth but they’ll be looking crazy
in a minute when the anointing comes on
you because they can’t stop you when
you’re anointed they can’t hold you down
when you’re anointed the devil is afraid
of you
when you’re anointed somebody raise your
hands and say anoint me with fresh oil
fresh all we need a fresh anointing we
need a fresh anointing I’m almost done
but let me keep preaching he said I’m
gonna anoint him in the midst of his
brothers and David was anointed see we
leaned on other things than the
anointing he said it shall not be poured
upon strangers if you stay distant and
far from God don’t expect the anointing
this is for chosen vessels the anointing
is a witness of the Holy Spirit of a
sanctified life Hebrews 10 and verse 15
said he is perfected forever them that
are sanctified we’re of the Holy Spirit
is a witness when you see someone that
is sanctified and the anointing is on
their life that’s the witness of the
Holy Spirit
I have anointed this one he said any
Clete in
Ecclesiastes nine and eight let their
garments always be white let their head
lack no all he said I want you to have
white garments speaking of purity and
because you’re separated because you’re
consecrated because you’re sanctified
because you have white garments you’ll
have anointed heads purity always
produces power we’ve come to a time in
this generation where the word
sanctification makes people gag they
don’t want to have nothing to do with
being separate they don’t want to have
nothing to do with being different from
the world but one thing that the
anointing is attracted to is a person
who is sanctified set apart consecrated
says my life is for Jesus Christ and I
don’t care what everybody else can do if
it’s gonna hinder my anointing I don’t
need it I don’t want it it’s not enough
that for me I want the anointing more
than anything come on somebody lean in
and listen carefully he said and there
will be a great penalty for anyone who
tries to substitute the ingredients that
I said had to be in the anointing he
said don’t substitute did you read that
verse he said you shall not make another
one like it and pretend that’s the real
thing I don’t want substitutes we’re
living in an hour of substitutes in the
body of Christ and we think we can
substitute the anointing of the Holy
Spirit for other things when there is
nothing that will get the job done like
the anointing second chronicles 12 the
Bible said riah Boehm when he had gold
shields they were stolen and about 300
of them and he put them outside the
temple and the Bible said when they got
stolen because they had backslidden and
and the enemies came and stole them he
was afraid of the morale of what would
happen to the people and so he commanded
that they bring brass
shields that they put guards out there
so the people couldn’t get too close to
inspect and then he said polish the
brass shields real good so that when the
Sun hits them from a distance they’ll
still think that it’s the gold but it’ll
really be brass I wonder how much of
what we have in the church is brass
shields and we’re just trying our best
to imitate the real thing which is the
anointing of the Holy Spirit but there
is no imitation that can compare to the
anointing of the Holy Spirit and it’s
here right now for the Spirit of the
Lord is upon me for he has anointed me
to preach the gospel to heal the
brokenhearted to set at liberty them
that are bound acts 10 said God anointed
Jesus with the Holy Ghost and he went
about doing good healing all who were
oppressed of the devil when you get
anointed you’ll go about when you get
anointed God will open doors for you
when you get anointed they can’t hold
you down you’ll go about you get be
anointing on you and the anointing will
make things happen that you can’t make
happen and God wants to anoint every
person under the sound of my voice you
know I gotta close with this little
story but I heard this week a man by the
name of Raymond Culpepper at the I heard
him give this testimony he’s a powerful
preacher and pastor down in Birmingham
Alabama his daughter this happened many
years ago his daughter was 14 years old
and she got in the car with a 16 year
old they were just gonna run down the
road and get something to eat and come
back and they got in the car and
something happened to the car and it
broke down on the side of the road the
middle of the night and a stranger
pulled up got out of the car forced the
girls to get into his car put the
pastor’s Pastor Culpepper’s daughter in
the back seat and the other girl in the
front seat and sped away he started
cursing he started saying mean things
hateful things to them and
the pastor’s daughter noticed that over
in a box on the side was a knife and was
tape and was ropes and she began to
tremble and she said daddy the Holy
Spirit came upon me and I began to pray
in the Holy Spirit as the anointing came
on me and that girl began to pray and
the Holy Ghost pray under the anointing
of the Holy Spirit
she said that man driving that car that
was taking them off to do only God knows
what he was going to do to him
said what’s wrong with her what’s wrong
with her and the girl next to her said
that’s the Holy Ghost
that’s the anointing of God on her life
what’s wrong with you and then she
started and the man started saying why
can’t stand this pulled the car over
said get out of my car I ain’t gonna I
believe in the anointing I believe that
no weapon formed against us can prosper
when we are anointed we need the
anointing in our schools we need the
anointing on our teachers we need the
anointing on our students
