Falling Down Under Anointing and the Holiness of God
Wednesday 17 September
Text: 2 Timothy 3: 16-17
Key verse: Habakkuk 1:13 Thou art of purer eyes than to behold evil, and canst not look on iniquity.
It is not a manifestation of God's healing and deliverance power. Above all, our contention is that this manifestation which is so rampant today lacks scriptural authority. Whoever sees this manifesting in his ministry must return to God in prayer and be sober and diligent in his way. Salvation and holiness of life of men is the end of every Christian ministry. There are sufficient scriptural signs and gifts of the Spirit to covet. Manifestations which are not traceable to the scriptures must be rejected.
We cannot deny that people may fall down due to Holy Spirit manifestation in the ministry of a true minister of God. The following may be the cause of some people falling down under the power of God today. i: Some people fall down when the Holy Spirit comes upon them in baptismal measure. ii: Some fall down when they experience God's miracle touch. iii: Some fall down due to demonic reaction or when demons are cast out of them. iv: Some fall down out of the convicting power of God's word. v: Some fall down because they are stricken by the power of God for reason known unto God, John 18:3-8.
The Holy Spirit can bring about any manifestation of His power through the ministry of any of His true ministers, but this must be according to scriptural pattern which are classified into common and uncommon miracles. While we do not deny falling down by divine manifestation during worship service, we say that this is not a common manifestation in the worship service of believers. It is not a common occurrence in the ministry of true gospel ministers.
Children of God should not be expecting this to manifest in their worship service, neither should ministers seek for this manifestation in their ministry. The prerogative is God's. Those who take delight in falling down on their own accord should be corrected, rebuked or warned. Let the worship of God be done decently and reverently. We affirm that some ministers have acquired this strange manifestation from Satan to promote their ministry!
Thought for the day: Correct those who take delight in falling down on their own.
Song for the day: Lift Jesus higher
Bible reading for the day: Joel 1-3
