Shaken for the anointing

Skilled Workman Posted on May 24, 2011 by David BergslandMay 24, 2011

http://media.voe.org/Manna_fest/2231161 Perry Stones actually preached on Manna Fest this week. You need to listen to this. His position is that the shaking of the church is necessary for a fresh anointing. It sure lines up with what Pat & I have been experiencing.

Mental Masturbation or anointed teaching – beware

Skilled Workman Posted on April 29, 2011 by David BergslandMarch 23, 2020

Mental Masturbation or anointed teaching – beware as it matters a lot. If your teaching gets you off and does not change the students, you’ve messed up, big time. For it is written, “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the cleverness of the clever I will thwart.” Where is the wise man? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? For … Continue reading →

What is the anointing to teach?

Skilled Workman Posted on January 8, 2011 by David BergslandSeptember 30, 2017

What is the anointing to teach? I mean what is the anointing to teach scripturally? It’s really an important question. You cannot teach scripture effectively without the power of the Holy Spirit. The modern phrase to cover this gifting is to call it the anointing. This is the biblical phrase to describe what we do. This anointing is talked about in I John—but what does that mean? If it is central to your efforts to teach, you need to … Continue reading →

Discerning ministries: what is real?

Skilled Workman Posted on January 4, 2011 by David BergslandJanuary 4, 2011

As we see, attend, and fellowship with various churches and ministries,it is important to discern if they know the Lord and how well. Here are some things to look for as you find new sources of spiritual guidance and leadership. I mentioned this briefly already. The same things apply to finding a new church or fellowship to join. How is Jesus treated? This is always the bottom line. If a church considers Jesus to be the archangel … Continue reading →

Jesus’ view on church leadership

Skilled Workman Posted on January 1, 2011 by David BergslandJanuary 1, 2011

Jesus gives us the most important aspects of church leadership The first aspect of leadership is found in the Gospels. Jesus emphatically told us: Don’t let anyone call you teacher, for you have one teacher—the Messiah [Matthew 23:10] We need to keep this at the forefront of our minds as we study church leadership. For Jesus is the leader. He is the head and we are merely the body—His Bride. At best we are stewards of gifts … Continue reading →

Asking for prayers, please

Skilled Workman Posted on December 5, 2010 by David BergslandDecember 5, 2010

I have been spending a lot of time in prayer, seeking the face of the Lord, trying to follow His lead to write Bible studies and develop materials to make those studies real, helpful, and empowering. As I am working on these things, my heart continuously goes out to people in mainline churches with no spiritual resources—no way to hear the true powerful gospel. The movements of power in the 1960s and 1970s are distant memories. The … Continue reading →

The baptism of the Holy Spirit: empowerment

Skilled Workman Posted on May 24, 2010 by David BergslandMay 24, 2010

Receiving the empowerment of the Lord As we remember the first Pentecost of the church, it is important that we make sure we have experienced our personal pentecost. How is this baptism different? John the Baptist separated it out before Jesus began his ministry. In John 1:29-34, John clearly says what we have experienced as reality. “The next day he saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, “Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin … Continue reading →

Giving the Holy Spirit control

Skilled Workman Posted on May 23, 2010 by David BergslandMay 23, 2010

Possession has a really bad ring to it, doesn’t it? However, that is simply due to the fact that we almost always preface possession with demon. This is a bad thing. However, the Holy Spirit is God himself and a gentleman at the very least. This is a spirit you should covet. This is a spirit you want to possess you, to fill you to overflowing. Maintaining spiritual security The manner of living this way mimics what we … Continue reading →

Everyone does what is right in their own eyes…

Skilled Workman Posted on October 4, 2009 by David BergslandOctober 4, 2009

Judges 17:6 (English Standard Version) In those days there was no king in Israel. Everyone did what was right in his own eyes. Isn’t this the state of us today? A lack of leadership, plus a rugged individualism. In the world it is indeed hopeless. Our so-called leaders are corrupt and they follow the sheep and/or the flesh—lost in the futility of their minds. So, how do we get beyond this? I must admit I’ve gotten to the … Continue reading →
