We
are anointed, equipped for the task to which Christ has called us. It
is that anointing which is all-important. 1 John 2:20,27(NKJ) “You have
an anointing from the Holy One ... The anointing which you have
received from him abides in you.” The word “unction” or “anointing” is
the Greek “chrisma” from which we get the word Christ, the Anointed One.
This “chrism,” the endowment of the Holy Spirit, is the secret of a
true evangelist. Even Jesus Himself needed to receive the anointing to
go about doing good and healing. Now why would Jesus need an anointing?
He was flesh and blood that is why. So are we. It is the anointing which
takes our voice and our gestures and adds to them a special new
quality. No actor can imitate it. Watch an unconverted actor preach in a
television play and it is so obviously artificial, like hearing a
ventriloquist’s doll. There’s no soul in it. But the anointing breaks
the yoke. God bless you. REINHARD BONNKE
This post is basically about renewing my mind now.
Would you believe if I told you that I forget that I was immortal because of the blood of Jesus and what it accomplished, I thought I was an ordinary human being because of the cares of this world, I forgot who I was. I forgot that I was seated in heavenly realms in Christ and that I could stand on the things that Jesus had done...
I know the voice that speaks behind my voice, that gives me power, it is the Holy Ghost speaking through me. 1 John 2;20, 27 says that I, Tisha have an anointing from the Holy One, that the anointing I have received remains in me.
Unction means Chrisma, from the word Christ, it is an endowment of the Holy Ghost, the secret of a true evangelist. The bible says Jesus needed to receive the anointing to do good and to heal.
The anointing, that special endowment from the Holy Ghost takes my voice and my gestures and adds a special new quality, it comes from deep inside, we know that we couldn't be that spectacular without the Holy Ghost, the anointing makes the difference.
The anointing of God's Spirit makes me more than a man
When we yield to the Holy Ghost, dropping our agenda's and whatnot, then He can use us for His glory and even when we bear His glory upon our lives, we still give Him the glory.
The anointing of God's Spirit covers me and my family. I have the Spirit of gentleness.
