Your anointing can be circumvented by the sin of disobedience. We must remember that a prophet is called to bring
clarity and revelation to their community. However, acting in a selfish manner will nullify the anointing of God in your life. This was indeed the case with Jonah. He was anointed and appointed by God to call his community to repent and to return to the Lord. He disobeyed the command and went on a journey in the opposite direction to which he was sent. Disobedience activates the curses outlined by God in your life (see Deut. 28:15ff). Although in our modern world some folks dismiss the notion of curses, it is there in scripture for all to see. Disobedience activate the curses whereas obedience actives blessings.
For Jonah the curse was to spend three nights and days dead in the belly of a whale. For us as modern day prophets we may not be so fortunate, so guard your anointing and learn to obey the voice of the Lord and his prophetic word that comes to you.
Read Deuteronomy 28:1-14 and 15-45.
This was a nice short, concise article on the importance of obedience to God. Here is a book that I think correlates with your general message of the prophetic http://www.destinyimage.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1038&products_id=816
