At what point does a man lose his anointing with GOD?

Question

I saw, a man lose his when he spoke out against the will of God,and where the Lord had placed him. He had a ministry. you know the anointing and when it is on a person. There is an anointing on a person when he is in the will of God, or doing the will of the Father in obedience.

I know you can lose it, and when that happens then you usally die like saul an the the man I talked about above. Aaron because he spoke against Moses wife, after the anointing left him,
I do not believe a person can do what they want and still be anointed by God.

Answer 1

Some people may confuse salvation with anointing. I do not believe you can ever lose your salvation, but you can lose your anointing.

I have a personal experience, where, when I went to college, I was a ministerial student. I did not know it at the time, but I was not saved. I could not understand why God did not anoint my messages, as I had many opportunities to preach, while studying for the ministry. I preached all over the state of Alabama for two years, then dropped out of college.

In 1976 the Lord came into my life and I was gloriously born again. My life changed and I received the anointing of the Lord. I owned two businesses at the time,, and they both were doing well.

My ministry has changed directions, but I still serve the Lord.

Answer 2

Actually, once God has "called" a person to do a duty of whatever it is, you had better do it. That annointing is on you until the day you die. It does not matter what a person would like to do besides doing God's will, it is better to obey than to pay for it in the long-run. No man on this earth can exact the punishment fit for that person that is for God to determine and it is best to just pray for that person. Once one is "called" in the Lord to do His will, that is what it is regardless. God bless you and may He keep you.
