People ask me how I have managed to write so many books. Approximately 60 to date. They think it is my brain, IQ or education. Wrong. None of these. It is the anointing of the Holy Spirit. And what exactly is the anointing? It is the power of the Holy Spirit that makes things easy. The anointing is what comes easily. Once I struggle I have gone outside my anointing, but when I live within my anointing I find that my mind flows, thoughts come and the way to express rolls out like a gushing stream.
The question follows: where did you get this anointing? By fasting? A lot of prayer? By having people with power lay hands on you? I reply: I believe in praying and fasting and in the laying on of hands. I have had dozens and dozens and dozens of high profile people lay hands on me. Name them and I have probably been prayed for by them! And I do NOT underestimate what happened when these godly, loving and anointed people prayed for me.
But I will tell my secret (if there is a secret): it is literally practicing what I preach regarding total forgiveness – and not grieving the Holy Spirit by bitterness. These twin teachings – (1) totally forgiving every single person in the world who has not been very nice plus (2) the teaching of not grieving the Holy Spirit by anger and bitterness – are the secret to my writing books. Total forgiveness enables the Holy Spirit to flow freely and unhindered in me. The result: thoughts come, words flow and God opens the doors.
He will do this for you. Total forgiveness is the secret to the anointing and is available to all who will let people off the hook who have been hurtful or injurious. A forty-day fast will not do it, neither will a thousand people laying hands on you. The secret is totally setting your enemy free and praying for them – sincerely – that God will bless them.
