The Evangelist and the Anointing for Healing: God’s Power in Action
The office of the evangelist is not just about speaking—it’s about power. When God calls a man to preach the Gospel, He also equips him with supernatural grace to confirm the Word. One of the marks of a true evangelist is the anointing for healing. Bishop Dag Heward-Mills walks in this divine anointing. His crusades are not only marked by salvation but by undeniable miracles of healing, deliverance, and restoration.
This anointing is not self-made. It is received from God through intimacy, prayer, obedience, and sacrifice. It is the overflow of a life that has been set apart for the Lord’s work. Bishop Dag often shares how his healing ministry developed through years of fasting, prayer, and study of God’s Word—not seeking power for show, but for service.
The anointing for healing is not about the man—it’s about the mandate. It’s about bringing healing to the broken and proving that Jesus is alive.
The Evidence of the Anointing
When Bishop Dag stands to preach, the Word is central—but soon after, the anointing begins to flow. It’s not always dramatic, but it is always effective. He prays, he commands, he declares—and the power of God moves across the field. Tumors disappear. Eyes are opened. People who couldn’t walk begin to move. These are not emotional responses—they are genuine manifestations of the Holy Spirit’s healing power.
The anointing doesn’t make noise for attention. It brings results. It restores what sickness has taken and reveals the compassion of Jesus to a watching world. People who doubted the Gospel suddenly bow in awe, not just because of what they heard, but because of what they saw.
Bishop Dag has never claimed to be a healer. He always points to Jesus. The anointing works because Jesus is still healing through willing vessels.
How the Anointing Is Carried
The healing anointing is not automatic—it must be guarded and carried carefully. Bishop Dag teaches that living a life of holiness, prayer, and humility is essential to walking in the anointing. It cannot be mixed with pride or compromise. It rests on the one who honors God both in public and in private.
He often spends hours in prayer before a crusade, seeking not just to prepare a message, but to receive power from on high. He separates himself, listens for God’s voice, and invites the presence of the Holy Spirit. The anointing is not treated lightly—it is pursued intentionally.
This sacred approach is what keeps the oil flowing. And it is why the miracles keep coming—not as a performance, but as a ministry of mercy.
Raising Others in the Anointing
Bishop Dag doesn’t keep the anointing to himself. He raises others to walk in it. Through his books, ministry camps, and Bible schools, he teaches young pastors and evangelists how to seek the presence of God and minister healing to the sick.
He emphasizes that the anointing is not a mystery—it’s a spiritual inheritance for every believer who desires to walk in the footsteps of Christ. And through his teachings, many have stepped into their own healing ministries, carrying the fire to new regions and nations.
Conclusion: Power With Purpose
The healing anointing is not given for fame—it’s given for souls. And in Bishop Dag Heward-Mills’ ministry, this anointing is faithfully stewarded for the glory of God. It is the evidence that Jesus is alive. It is the mercy of God made visible. And it is the answer to a suffering world.
The evangelist must carry more than a message—he must carry power. And Bishop Dag does so with humility, consistency, and a heart full of love for the people.
This is what happens when an evangelist is anointed to heal: Jesus is revealed, lives are changed, and the kingdom advances.
