ANOINTING COMES WITH DEMANDS (5)

Post date: Dec 10, 2018 12:48:53 AM

When the demands of the anointing is a test of your faith to rise beyond where you are and keep you above others, through grace, you will pass the test, but when the demands of the anointing is a temptation to take you down, keep you down, destroy you, humiliate you, limit you from rising above certain level in your life, profession, family mistakes, sins, and overcome satanic ancestral boundaries, you will also overcome such by the power of the Holy Spirit and grace. In Romans 8:31-38, we read these message from Apostle Paul, he said, if God is for us, and He is for us; if God wants us anointed to be what, where, and who He wants, and He desires that; and if we are physically and spiritually ready to pass the test, then we will; if we are ready to overcome the temptation in our lives and ways, we will; thereafter we will receive the anointing, given power, and made to be very successful by the same God who had anointed us. Even before the test and the temptation come, through the grace we receive in our salvation, God had given us the power and the grace to overcome and conquer them. All we need is to be strong and courageous.

“What then shall we say to all these things? If God is for us, who can be successful against us? He who did not spare even His own Son, but gave Him up for us all, how will He not also, along with Him, graciously give us all things? Who will bring any charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies us declaring us blameless and putting us in a right relationship with Himself. Who is the one who condemns us? Christ Jesus is the One who died to pay our penalty, and more than that, who was raised from the dead, and who is at the right hand of God interceding with the Father for us. Who shall ever separate us from the love of Christ? Will tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? Just as it is written and forever remains written, for your sake we are put to death all day long, we are regarded as sheep for the slaughter. Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors and gain an overwhelming victory through Him who loved us so much that He died for us. For I am convinced and continue to be convinced beyond any doubt that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present and threatening, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the unlimited love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans 8:31-39. God said you can overcome, Jesus said you will overcome, the apostles said they overcame, and the Scriptures confirm you will overcome. Amen.

I want you to know this, our God who had proven Himself before in the lives of the apostles and prophets in various ways and means in the bible and others around the world will also do for you what He had done for them, He will not fail and does not make mistakes irrespective of location and situation and the case at hand. The demands of the anointing may seem intimidating but they are demands that are permitted by God to shape you physically and spiritually in preparation of what you will be and do with the power of His anointing. Joshua was given this instruction and told; “No man will be able to stand before you to oppose you as long as you live. Just as I was present with Moses, so will I be with you; I will not fail you or abandon you. Be strong and confident and courageous, for you will give this people as an inheritance the land which I swore to their fathers to give them. Only be strong and very courageous; be careful to do everything in accordance with the entire law which Moses My servant commanded you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, so that you may prosper and be successful wherever you go. This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall read and meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything in accordance with all that is written in it; for then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will be successful. Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified or dismayed or intimidated, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” Joshua 1:5-9. For prayers Click here
