While we were talking, a woman came up to him, asking, “Brother Carter, would you pray for the healing of my child?” He was about 70 at the time, and he lived to be over 80. I never knew him personally, but I had an opportunity to hear him preach once in He was a great teacher and a great man of God. I remember something that Brother Howard Carter said. They do something just because somebody else is doing it. That’s the reason people get in trouble: They try to function in an office to which God didn’t call them. We try to do too much, we spread ourselves too thin, and the anointing’s not there to do it. Sometimes we ministers try to be a jack-of-all-trades and we become the master of none. God didn’t call us all to do the same thing. Then God will use you, and you will excel in your calling. You can stand in more than one office, but you need to find out where you are and what your office is and yield to that.

We saw in Section 1 that Jesus stood in the fivefold ministry offices listed in the New Testament: (1) apostle, (2) prophet, (3) In the Old Testament, only the prophet, priest, and king were anointed. With the anointing, you’re better able to teach, preach, and do more.
It’s the same Holy Spirit, but the anointing to stand in a certain office is different from that anointing that abides within every believer. God has called and separated unto the ministry. But there also is an anointing that comes upon those whom The Word of God will work with or without an anointing.
