On every hand we witness how much our world is being invaded with violence, perversion and a disregard for morality and Godliness.I believe the anointing of God is needed more today than ever before. My thought is how much are we willing to pay to access the anointing of God in our lives? We need help to be able to live without fear and constant unsettling in our spirit.
What does the anointing mean to you? As a Christian, someone who has determined to allow the Lord Jesus Christ to reign, we need understanding. In the Hebrew language the word “anointing” means to be fat, to have strength, be fruitful or have fertility. Metaphorically, it is like the meaning of a fat bull in the pasture who has cast off his yoke and broken loose of all restraints
The old Testament prophet Isaiah wrote in the tenth chapter about a day coming when the burden will be taken away from our shoulders and the enemy’s yoke from our necks due to the anointing of God. However, this does not happen automatically. There is a price to possess the anointing of God. Timothy wrote about this in II Timothy 4:18, “The Lord will deliver me from every evil deed and will bring me safely to His heavenly kingdom.”
It is only as we make the decision to abide in Christ that we can tap into His anointing. A wise man or woman recognizes we need more of God to handle the problems, obstacles, tradegies and sorrows of life. The anointing is precious, costly and it is borrowed. We must learn to never assume anythinng. I encourage you to pray for your family, church, your community and our nation. We need the anointing of God to handle life’s troubles.The anointing is available for us but we make the choice to welcome God’s best for us.
