LOW OF ANOINTING AND BLESSING IN BACKSLIDING. Part II CONTINUOUS MANNA Manna was a food miraculously supplied by God to the Israelites during their years of wandering in the wilderness. God continuously provided manna for them for forty years without stopping even when they maliciously sinned and turned against Him in the wilderness. Exodus 16:35, And the children of Israel ate manna forty years, until they came to an inhabited land; they ate manna until they came to the border of the land of Canaan. The facts that the goodness and provisions of God continues in your life does not proves you are a candidate of heaven. The children of Israel committed sins against God that He was grossly displeased with them but He kept supplying manna to them. The flow of God’s provision and supplies that continues in your life or ministry, the financial, material blessings are not evidence of living right with God. PROVISION OF QUAIL Quail was a meat God miraculously provided for the children of Israel after they complained of eating manna alone. Though God was so much incensed with their lustful request, yet He provided the meat for them. Number 11:32, And the people stayed up all that day, all night, and all the next day, and gathered the quail (he who gathered least gathered ten homers); and they spread them out for themselves all around the camp. Answer of provisions from God is not an indication that God is well pleased with you or you are still His child. The children of Israel lusted for meat after God has satisfied them with manna, this desire and request originated from lust and covetousness, yet God answered and granted them. You can receive permissive will and answer from God, but that doesnt implies you asked aright because problem will always follow permissive will and answer from God. God does not want you to get something, He does not want you to marry the person, He does not want you to go somewhere or He does not want you to start a business, but you insist with fasting and prayer; God may permit you, but problem will soon proceed therein. God’s provision, blessings and goodness flowing into the life of a Christian cannot stop God from punishing him of his sin at the end. God can still continue to bless a man even if he had committed or still committing sin, and that cannot stop God from judging him according to his sin if such man does not repent and forsake the sin. The children of Israel lusted for meat, God provided the meat for them, and few moment after He punished them for asking for the same meat. Numbers 11:33, But while the meat was still between their teeth, before it was chewed, the wrath of the Lord was aroused against the people, and the Lord struck the people with a very great plague. In your sin, God can be blessing you massively, you can be experiencing protection, provisions and preservation, but that does not mean you will not go to hell fire if you die now, and it does not mean you will make rapture if it happens now. The children of Israel were enjoying Gods provision and protection, but majority of them could not enter the Promised Land, because of their sin. The end time false teaching that if you are righteous, you will enjoy prosperity or prosperity is a sign of righteousness, such teachings are from the pit of hell. You can be flourishing as a Christian in your business and finances, you can have the flow of anointing in your life as a minister, but without present and persistent holiness, you will end up in hell after all. So it happened to majority of the children of Israel, they got heavenly manna, and they perished and went to hell, because of unrepented sins. MOSES STRIKING When the children of Israel complained of thirsty in the wilderness, God told Moses to speak to the rock before their eyes, Numbers 20:8. But instead, Moses disobeyed and struck the rock. Yet God answered and provided the water immediately, in fact the water came out abundantly. Numbers 20:7, 8, Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 8 “Take the rod; you and your brother Aaron gather the congregation together. Speak to the rock before their eyes, and it will yield its water; thus you shall bring water for them out of the rock, and give drink to the congregation and their animals.” Numbers 20:11, Then Moses lifted his hand and struck the rock twice with his rod; and water came out abundantly, and the congregation and their animals drank. As a minister, you can be carrying out ungodly projects in your ministry, building multimillion edifice while many members are suffering of lack of accommodation and food to eat, yet you can still experience abundant success and progress. Your church can build university with expensive fees, and yet the presence of God still continues. Your church can be unfaithful to the biblical way of using tithes and offering, and still experience Gods presence abundantly. Your pastors and church can be using different ungodly administrative systems, preaching heresies, and still continue to experience signs and wonders. As a person, you can be displeasing God, doing things that are not approved by the Lord, and yet things will be working for you. You know what? Moses disobeyed God and miracle followed his disobedience, but he was disqualified for entering the Promised Land. Your disobedience may not stop Gods blessing in your life, and as a minister of God or church, your disobedience, selfishness, lies, worldliness, indulgences, unfaithfulness to spending offerings and extravagant lifestyle may not necessarily hinder Gods flowing of anointing and flourishing of blessings in your lives and church, but they will definitely disqualify you from making heaven if you do not repent now. If a minister of God sins or begin to live or teach enormously, he may still continue to experience signs and wonders and the anointing flowing, but his name has been removed from the book of life and he no longer qualify for heaven, yet the anointing may keep on flowing with miracles, signs and wonders. After God answered Moses’s prayer with miracle of water supply even in his disobedience, God sentenced him in His judgment in the following verse of Numbers. 20:12, Then the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, “Because you did not believe Me, to hallow Me in the eyes of the children of Israel, therefore you shall not bring this assembly into the land which I have given them.” God is not a respecter of any man, even the greatest man of God on earth in the Old Testament, in the person of Moses, was judged by God. God is not partial to overlook or cover sin of anyone, minister or members. He could not overlook the sin of a man after His heart like David, but gave due punishment. So any minister or Christian who commits sin, who teaches or lives in an unbiblical manner may still experience continuous flowing of anointing and blessings but he is playing with eternal judgment and condemnation if he does not repent now. Jesus said, “Many will say to me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord have we not prophesied in your name, cast out demons in your name, and done many wonders in your name? And then I will declare to them, I never knew you, depart from me, you who practice lawlessness!. Matthew 7:22, 23.
