I was taught in LSM that the anointing was on the head of the Body and fell to the members

.
That's partly true Suanne if that's all that was emphasized. That partial teaching comes from Psalm 133..a Psalm we all know so well.
Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!
It is
like the precious ointment upon the head,
that ran down upon the beard, even
Aaron's beard:
that went down to the skirts of his garments;
3As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the LORD commanded the blessing, even life for evermore.
The Precious Ointment is the Holy Spirit..anointing the Head (Christ is our Head..and the Great High Priest (Aaron). The Holy Spirit anointed the Lord Jesus (empowered Him to preach the gospel and minister to the people). After the Lord Jesus ascended, the Holy Spirit came into us when we got saved and received the Jesus Christ as our Saviour and Lord. God the Holy Spirit anoints the Head (Christ) first and then the body of Christ. The Power of God is poured on the top of the Head and it runs down to the skirt of His garment (the church).
(I will be talking about THAT anointing in my next post (Part 2). There are 3 anointings I will be sharing on.

My experience was that I sensed the anointing rarely in "meetings".

You're probably right. In most LC meetings, there was no anointing. I'll explain further in my next 2 parts.

It was occasional in private prayer and occasional with women I fellowship with in the home.
It seemed to come from the Father but it depended upon my confession and and cleansing.

Yup! I'll go into that also.

The other women I meet with come from many different backgrounds. Two of them pastor congregations. So, they are not bound by the teachings of the LSM.
|
Have you learned anything from them? ..regarding the Anointing of the Holy Spirit? Are they good teachers? Just wondering. Some are..some not.

Then... there were the random times that I just wanted to jump up and down and my face was a huge smile...just a sweetness from the Lord.
