Many confuse the anointing with passion
One can be so passionate about things, minister with such passion, sing the perfect notes, speak the "perfect" motivational message and be so adept in many different "abilities". One can have worldly success and still even as a Christian bring God polluted worship and sacrifice. Our motives can be all wrong and can come from a place of PRIDE.
We need to move away from trusting in our own self and our own capabilities.
In fact, the only real POWER comes from God and God will manifest his great power when we have come to the end of ourselves and have surrendered ALL to him
What can really make a difference?
What can make THE difference?
The anointing!
The disciples WAITED in the upper room for the anointing of the holy spirit, before going out to do all that God had APPOINTED them to do.
Is it possible after you have the anointing you can lose it?
Yes, yesterday's anointing is not the same as today's anointing
We need fresh fire, fresh manna for each day.
Listen to these words:
Judges 16:20
She said, “The Philistines are upon you, Samson!” And he awoke from his sleep and said, “I will go out as I have time after time and shake myself free.” For Samson did not know that the Lord had departed from him.
Samson did not know when God's spirit had left him.
Many ministers are operating without God's presence, his power and the anointing
Let us really do some introspection
We will not be like those who come to God at the final judgment and be told depart from me, even though we operated in the place of casting out demons and the miraculous. Please note these manifestations CAN (not always)come from the realm of the soul
Matthew 7:21 - 23
21 “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven.22 Many will say to Me on that day[when I judge them],‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, and driven out demons in Your name, and done many miracles in Your name?’23 And then I will declare to them publicly, ‘I never knew you;depart from Me[you are banished from My presence],you who act wickedly[disregarding My commands].’(E)
We do not need to fear unnecessarily for the simple truth is to come broken before God daily and ask him to keep us in his PERFECT not permissive will daily
Lord
Reign us in heavenly Father, we give you that permission Abbah Father, we cannot do this on our own. Please keep us in the place of being surrendered to, walking in and living in your perfect will
Thank you Abbah Father
Walk Good in Christ
My friends
Till we meet again
