Acts 6:5-8

Many atimes we assume offices without first checking if it is God's will for our life. One of the most painful thing in life is living without purpose..
Whenever an appointment comes to us, it is very necessary to go to God in prayer to seek if that is will for our lives or not. Of it is his purpose for your life, then you must cry to God to him for anointing.
There is a clear difference between the Anointing and Appointment, the former is greater than so control it. Ensure you don't seek or lobby for an appointment but rather seek anointing.
Anointing is the supernatural ability to do something. God has a purpose for every life and so he gives you the necessary ability to achieve it. When you pursue what God has not called you for, you end up struggling and living under pressure. When you seek the Anointing, the right appointment will come without stress.
To get to it right, you must first ensure that you get the holy spirit who is a comforter, helper and the third person in Trinity. With this, the right appointment will come, Before the patriarch Stephen was appointed as a deacon, he was annionted by the Holy spirit but he never performed miracles or preached until he was appointed.Act 6:7-8
The appointment is a mere platform for the manifestation of the Anointing. Great exploits happens when the anionted is appointed.
Being APPOINTED without being ANNIONTED can never produce excellence.
