“The anointing doesn’t come easily or freely. All Christians are given oil at new birth. They are given a supply. What they do, how they use it, determines its growth and proliferation. If they use it to fill one pot and that’s it, the oil will stop. If they use it for multiple pots, it will increase. If not, what little they have will seem like it’s taken away because it’s lying dormant. You must stir up the gift that’s in you. Keep the anointing flowing.” -Holy Spirit
The above is a reference also to 2 Kings 4 where Elisha told the widow to borrow some vessels. She kept filling up the vessels until she had no more. The oil that miraculously multiplied was used to pay her debt and keep her kids from being sold. Won’t that preach? 👏👏
You know what I believe? If she had 1,000 vessels, that little bit of oil would have filled them all!! Why? Because we serve a limitless God! He never runs out! 🙌🙌
Same goes for our daily lives; there’s an anointing for whatever we need to do. Whether we’re a parent, a spouse, a student, teacher, CEO, janitor, mechanic, creative….whatever! When we tap into the anointing for our lives, for our tasks, for our businesses, etc.—we are receiving divine help to get the job done.
But the anointing that you received from him abides in you, and you have no need that anyone should teach you. But as his anointing teaches you about everything, and is true, and is no lie—just as it has taught you, abide in him. (1 John 2:27 ESV)
All these good benefits, what is the anointing? God’s burden removing, yoke destroying power. It’s the super on your natural. It’s the ability to get the job done with relative ease, because God is doing it all through you!!💪
And it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden shall be taken away from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing. (Isaiah 10:27 KJV)
So whatever is a burden in your life, whatever is a cause for pause or distress or frustration, tap into the anointing! It may not even be something negative or chaotic, but you just want to do better—tap into the anointing! Ask the Lord, He won’t turn you down. Remember, He never runs out—He has an endless supply. 🌈
Plus, He is anointed and faithful and He wants us just like Him! 😍
