Now hopefully you're NOT reading this articling thinking I'm advocating the idea that you can live in sin and work in powerful anointing. I'm trying to use some examples to show that people living in total sin still operated in the Holy Spirit. Remember, in the beginning of Matthew 10, the Gospel records that Jesus gave the twelve disciples authority over sickness and diseases and to cast out demons. Notice it doesn't say that Jesus only anointed eleven of them, and skipped Judas and didn't anoint him. Why is this significant? Because later on when they return rejoicing that demons were subject to them, the Scriptures say all twelve of them came back, not just eleven. Scripture shows, sadly as it is that Judas could still flow in the Spirit and operate in the miraculous just like any other disciple because he was anointed to do so, and the anointing is not based on us being good enough. Like I said, healing is mechanical not relational. Otherwise, nobody would be good enough to be anointed. If it is relational, then how far can you be in sin before the anointing wades? History shows MANY individuals God used powerfully who fell into sin.

So in conclusion for now, take both sides of this coin. First, be confident that YOU can do the awesome deeds the Scriptures say believers are able to (Mark 16:17-18, John 14:12-14) and don't think God won't use you until "you're good enough", or "you're perfect", or other things hindering you from fulfilling the great call of God on your life. However, secondly, don't believe you can live in sin and operate in these things you're called to, as one day the healings and the lives you touch will be a testimony against you in the day of judgment.
