How God Anoints Gifts That a Person Has

Updated: Jul 2, 2019

What is a Portion of the Anointing?


A person who thinks that God will anoint him and yet does not have any gifts to present to God is deceived. God will anoint what you already have. If you do have gifts, you should grow them and present them to God so that He can anoint them. There are gifts that are from God and gifts that are from the Lord. Have you got any gifts? If you say "I do not have gifts". You are insisting that God is not love. He has gifted each of us with gifts that are from birth. If you are in His presence, you should go and count the gifts that he has given to you and understand what gifts you need to grow. I have written an article about how you can grow your gifts. I will concentrate on how to grow your gifts for God to anoint them.


God calls Elisha
God anointed a portion of Elisha's gift of prophecy when Elijah found him ploughing. He was given another portion of prophetic gifts when Elijah passed on. His gifts were then in a double portion

If the Lord anoints a person with a portion of the anointing, he will be able to do the will of God in his life. If God anoints a person with a double portion, he will be able to do wonders in his environment. A person who has a double portion of the anointing is someone who has been a prophet before. When a person has been given the double portion of the anointing, he has received a mantle from God.


What is a Mantle?


A mantle is a set of gifts which a person may receive from another person whilst a birthright is a set of gifts which a person receives from God. If the gifts which are in a mantle are the same as the gifts which are in a birthright, that mixture becomes a double portion of an anointing. Can a mantle be stolen by the enemy like a birthright? A mantle is able to be stolen by the enemy if the person who has a mantle does not cooperate with the Lord. If a person dies and does not willingly pass on his mantle, the person who touches the corpse of the dead person will inherit his mantle. It does not have to be a blood relative or a close family member, it can even be a mortician. Do mantles only have a set of prophetic gifts? A mantle may have sets of different types of gifts that are useful for the Lord and for a man. A mantle may have gifts of wealth, peace and love. Another mantle may have peace, knowledge, and administration. Another mantle may possess health, wealth and knowledge. Another mantle may have gifts of discernment, knowledge, and healing.

How Mantles are Acquired


Solomon's wisdom and the two women
Solomon was given a gift of wisdom from God. He received a mantle of wisdom from his father David. His gifts were anointed by God to give him a double portion of the anointing of wisdom upon him.

A person may possess many mantles without his knowledge. If a person has good health, he may possess a mantle with health as the dominant gift. If a person has wealth, he may have a mantle that has wealth as the dominant gift and if a person has a gift of healing, he may possess a mantle that has knowledge as the dominant gift. These gifts are always in sets of 3's. If a person is in possession of 3 mantles, that person has a complete set of prophetic gifts. If a person has 6 sets of mantles, he has a complete set of a double portion of prophetic gifts in his possession. These gifts cannot be more than 3 in a set. If there were 4 in a set, it would make perfection on earth which is not the Lord’s will. If a person has a double set of prophetic gifts, he will always be a prophet. If a person who is a prophet does not possess a set of prophetic gifts, which are in 3 mantles, the Lord will send that prophet to places where he can be able to acquire the complete set of gifts.

How God Will Anoint a Double Portion of Gifts


A person who has a mantle and has not given it to the Lord, will not be able to grow the gifts in that mantle for his lifetime. If a person has a mantle which has wealth as a dominant gift, he may be rich as a result of that mantle but will not be wealthy. He must give that mantle to the Lord for Him to destroy all the influence of the enemy upon t. The enemy may use that mantle to enrich that person and draw him away from the Lord. If that mantle is given to the Lord, a person will experience the wealth that the Lord desired for him. If a person does not give the Lord a mantle, he may not be able to use that mantle at all. He may live his entire life without any knowledge of the gifts which he possessed from God. A person who has learned about giving should ask the Holy Spirit about what he should give to the Lord so that he is guided on what to do. Why would a person live his entire life with a mantle without being able to use it? If a person with a mantle has curses which are as a result of his sin and that of his forefathers, he will not be able to use his mantle unless he repents to the Lord. If he has knowledge about mantles, he may use his gifts for the glory of the enemy. The enemy will be the one to grow that mantle for him. A person who has been able to give his mantle to the Lord will be asked to relinquish everything that he has received as a result of that mantle. When a person gives the Lord a mantle, He will anoint it for him to be able to live with that mantle according to the Lord’s will. If he had a mantle that has a gift of healing as the dominant gift, he will have the gifts of healing dominant when the Lord anoints that mantle. If he had a mantle with the gift of administration dominant, that person will be an evangelist when the Lord anoints that mantle.
