READ YOUR RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL. BE FAITHFUL WITH THE ANOINTING - PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME PHD SUNDAY APRIL 24th, 2016
But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you...
(1 John 2:27).
As a child of God, there's an anointing on your
life; it's a divine enablement. Many mistake the anointing for the Spirit, but
the anointing isn't the Spirit. The Spirit gives the anointing: the anointing
is a divine power. It's that power of God that heals, delivers, removes
burdens, and causes you to prosper. It brings you victory. It opens doors for
you. It uplifts you, and causes you to fulfill the will of the Father. It accomplishes works beyond your human ability.
Another beautiful thing is that the anointing on
your life can increase. Sometimes, people want to do more; they want to make
more impact with the Gospel by reaching more people. Yes; that's possible and
commendable, but you need increased grace. God will have to increase the
authority given to you; but first, you must be faithful with what you already
have. If you're faithful in using what you currently have, then He'll cause a
new anointing to come on you.
If you're a leader in the house of God, for
instance, and the Lord has committed fifty members to you to lead, be committed
in praying and interceding for those fifty as you would for fifty thousand. If
you're not faithful with the fifty, even if you fast and pray for increase in
membership, it may never happen, because the anointing can't be increased
without faithfulness.
Jesus said in Luke 16:10, "He that is
faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: and he that is unjust
in the least is unjust also in much." It's a spiritual principle. Choose
to be faithful with whatever the Lord has committed to your hands. Don't
despise little beginnings, because your faithfulness with, and to that which
may seem "little" today is what will take you to the next level.
PRAYER
Dear Lord, I thank you for your anointing upon my life, and for the privilege of being a minister of reconciliation. My spiritual fervor is at its peak, because I'm full of the Spirit. I'm faithful and effective in the ministry and assignment committed into my hands, in Jesus' Name. Amen.
