The 3 dimensions of the anointing

Sharon Jefferson

I am sure that most would agree that the Lord has so much more for His Church. We have not even scratched the surface of what is to come. What follows is the pattern for the coming anointing and how to walk in the King Priest Anointing after the Order of Melchesideck. Hebrews 7-11 explains all about this awesome anointing. However, I want to deal with the pattern of the anointing and how to walk in it.

To begin we need to understand that there were two Bible characters who were anointed three times, David and Jesus. David was anointed first in Jerusalem (I Samuel 16:12), second in Hebron (II Samuel 2:1-4, 11) and last in Zion, (II Samuel 5:1-5). Jesus was anointed at birth, when John baptized him and at His resurrection or ascension.

We know that this anointing comes to us in three dimensions, with power and authority. The key to walking in these three dimensions is love. You will not be able to enjoy this anointing in anger, bitterness, jealousy, envy or unforgiveness. It will not happen. This anointing was lost in the Garden of Eden when sin came into the world through Adam and Eve. The Apostles walked in this anointing in the book of Acts, and then it was lost again.

Now it is time for the restoration of this wonderful and powerful anointing to those who are willing to pay the price to walk in it. Also key to this anointing is the fact that there is no flesh allowed. This anointing will come to those are on a quest to deny daily the flesh in order to walk in the spirit. It is for those who have an intimate relationship with the Lord, not just mere church goers. This requires commitment and loyalty to our Lord.

When we look at I Samuel 16:18, we see the character of this anointing that David carried. First, we see David had to be in presence of the Lord whatever the cost. Second, he was a mighty valiant man, which means that he was a bold, brave, heroic, dauntless and audacious. Third, he was a man of war. David was a warrior from his heart. David was the leader of a supernatural army that did great exploits for the Lord. David was steadfast in the choice of those who would be a part of this great army. Their motives had to be right, pure and holy. In I Chronicles 12:2, we see the men of God in this army were proficient. In verse 17, David made it clear that to join his army you had to come in peace and be willing to help him.

That sounds like some questions leaders today should be asking. When people leave a church and go to another without valid reason (the Lord told me to), we should send them right back where they came from. We should call their pastor and tell of the situation. If we would follow the plans of God, there would be little cruising from church to church instead of staying where the Lord has placed us through the good and the bad and the ugly and staying there until the Lord releases us to move on. There are no perfect churches nor perfect ministers.

Scripture also says David was prudent, which means he was cautious, discreet, frugal and a good manager of his affairs. Next, he was comely, a goodly man, beautiful and fair. And last, everyone knew the Lord was with him.

The three distinct realms of this anointing is that of prophet, priest and king. David's first assignment after being anointed king was to be trained in warfare with Saul. Saul lost his anointing. It was David's duty to play and sing by the Holy Spirit to soothe Saul from his torment. This is a great lesson. We need to learn how to be around our enemies and stay in the spirit and walk in love.

God filled David with love before his assignment began. David would have never passed his crisis tests without being filled with God's love. David learned through his crisis how to dodge spears and walk in love. David never spoke an evil word against Saul, although he had reason to. He became proficient in dodging the poisonous spears of Saul.

There are so many sick people in the church today, because of bitterness, hatred, jealousy, envy and unforgiveness and gossip and back bighting. All of these things were designed to break the hedge around us to give access to the enemy to come in and bring sickness, disease, tumors, growths and even cancer. We need to understand that even stress in our lives will break the hedge of the Lord. This anointing is sometimes called the Third Day Anointing, the Third Dimensional Anointing or the King Priest Anointing.
