How To Increase the Apostolic Anointing
It is grace first, then apostleship;
an apostle must know how to move forth in the apostolic grace giving to
him or her. Just as there is grace for each of the five grace
ministries. To be an apostle you need the gift of an apostle. Every real
apostle has the gift of an apostle, there is to each apostle there are
differences of ministries, and not every apostle has the same apostolic ministry.
Then in those apostolic ministries there are diversities of activities,
not every apostolic ministry has the same apostolic activities. An
Apostle needs to know his or her apostolic ministry and apostolic
activity before moving forth in their apostolic calling. Likewise an
apostle by knowing these areas of his or her apostleship will know his
sphere of authority, ministry and commission. I will say this again an
apostle needs to know his or her sphere before moving forth in their
apostolic calling. –(Rom. 5:5; 1 Cor. 12:4-6; 2 Cor. 10:13-14)
Again an apostle must learn to flow and depend on grace and the
apostolic grace. The apostolic anointing is the grace anointing. Beside,
to each minister, and to each marketplace minister, and to each
believer is giving a measure of faith, a measure of grace, a measure of
the anointing according to his or her gifts and calling. You must walk
and be faithful in these divine measures and limits giving to you. If
you are faithful, if you keep maturity the Lord will increase these
divine measures of the Father, of the Christ, and of the Holy Spirit.
–(Rom. 12:3)
Beside, we need to understand the manifold grace of
God. There is more then one kind of grace that the Lord gives. We
increase grace by knowledge, faith, and relationship with the Lord,
humility, praying, through trials and spiritual maturity. –(1 Pet. 4:10)
What Is The Apostolic Anointing?
The
apostolic anointing is the anointing that Christ gives to the first
apostles. Every apostle walks in this apostolic anointing. Apostolic
anointing is the sending anointing. Apostolic anointing is the anointing
that open doors and gates to the cities, nations and people groups.
Apostolic anointing is a anointing to release blessings, kingdom,
anointings, power and grace. Apostolic anointing is anointing that gives
an apostle a ministry of supernatural, power, signs, wonders and mighty
deeds. Apostolic anointing is an anointing for the release of
resources. Apostolic anointing makes the apostle a resource center.
Apostolic anointing is an anointing to bring the means and the ways.
Apostolic anointing is the grace anointing. –(Jn. 20:21)
In
addition, apostolic anointing is the grace anointing of Zechariah
4:6-10; it is by the Holy Spirit not by our might or power, it is a
anointing to move great mountains, it is anointing to establish, and
build supernatural, it is anointing to lay foundation and it is
anointing to finish the apostolic work. It is anointing that begins with
small things and small beginnings to come to pass and bring completion
of apostolic works in a certain amount of time. It is through an
apostolic anointing to compete apostolic works in a short time.
During
a time of much prayer the Holy Spirit spoke these words; “How to
Increase the Apostolic Anointing” After He said this He give me ten ways
to increase the apostolic anointing.
How To Increase The Apostolic Anointing:

2. Risks: More the risks that an apostle takes the more the Apostolic Anointing will increase.
3. Impossible: The more impossible things that an apostle faces the more the Apostolic Anointing will increase.
4. Praying In The Spirit: Through praying in the Spirit the Apostolic Anointing will increase. –(1 Cor. 14:18)
5. Increase In Sphere: As the apostolic sphere increases for an apostle the Apostolic Anointing increase at the same time.
6. Fathering And Mentoring Other Apostles: Every time you father, mentor, raise or release an apostle your Apostolic Anointing will increase.
7. In the Fellowship of Apostles:
The more apostles in a church, ministry, network, and city ministering
together and fellowshipping together the more Apostolic Anointing will
increase.
8. Connections with apostles outside of your network or in other networks in healthy Relationships:
The more an apostle networks with apostles in other apostolic works and
networks in on-going healthy relationships the Apostolic Anointing will
increase.
9. Increase In Vision: The more that the Lord increases or adds to the vision of an apostle the more the Apostolic Anointing will increase.
