THE ANOINTING
God and no humanity. It had a beautiful artwork of almond flowers. Exodus
25:33 states “Three cups shaped like almond flowers with buds and blos­
soms are to be on one branch, three on the next branch, and the same for
all six branches extending from the Lampstand.” The three cups had three
parts. When we total the threefold flowers there were sixty six parts on the
Lampstand which prophesied of the sixty six books of the Bible we now
have. The Holy Spirit is the author of the word of God. The Lampstand was
filled with pure oil that flowed through it. The Priests would take their white
linen garments and tear them. They would roll that and use it as wicks in the
Lampstand. The Priests were to keep the wicks trimmed, fresh bread on the
Table, and burn incense daily. There is maintenance of keeping a fresh
anointing in our lives. We can see in Leviticus 6:13 “The fire must be kept
burning on the altar continuously; it must not go out.” God started the fire
supernaturally in the beginning, but the Priests were to keep it burning daily.
We must keep a fresh anointing on our lives!
Fellowship with the Spirit
1 Corinthians 13:14 “May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of
God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.” Notice Paul spoke
of the fellowship of the Holy Spirit. This word for fellowship is the Greek word
Koinonia. It is a word that implies a deep intimacy. In Psalm 42 David
speaks of deep calling to deep. This is our spirits communing with the Holy
Spirit. The greatest level of intimacy in a marriage is seen in sex. What I
mean by that, it is the most private and personal part of marriage. Koininia is
usually seen in scripture speaking of sex. Now let me make something very
clear. I am not talking about anything sexual with God! But the greatest level
of intimacy in a marriage is sex, and this great level of intimacy is parallel
with the level of intimacy God wants with us. God wants us completely open
and transparent with him. After Adam fell he tried to cover himself and hide.
God wants us to run to him not covering and hiding. The Holy Spirit wants a
close intimacy with us. The word Koininia is literally translated: “presence,
fellowship, sharing together, participate with, intimacy, friendship, and com­
radeship (in battle with).” So this is the type of fellowship the Holy Spirit de­
sires. The Holy Spirit is God (Acts 5:3­4). He has intellect (Romans 8:27),
emotions (Romans 5:5), will (1 Corinthians 12:11), he instructs us (Nehe­
miah 9:20), and teaches us and counsels us (Psalm 32:8). We can see the
early church understanding this when they consulted the Holy Spirit in deci­
sion making. Acts 15:28 reads “It seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us
not to burden you with anything beyond the following requirements.”
Jesus’ teaching of the Holy Spirit
John 16:5­16 says “Now I am going to him who sent me, yet none of you
asks me, ‘Where are you going?’ Because I have said these things, you are
filled with grief. But I tell you the truth: It is for your good that I am going
