The Anointing

Hey, we're really doing pretty good!

I know, I know!
You could say anybody with a brain in their head can look around and see that the whole earth is in a topsy-turvy condition with chaos everywhere. You could even say that the church at large is in a diabetic condition. Many Christians talk Jesus big time, but where is the power of Jesus being manifested?

I guess at this point everyone would have to look within and rate themselves on how well he or she is doing. Personally, I feel like I could "whup a circle saw and it a-runnin." Do you feel this same way? If you live in a resting state even while the storms are raging all around you, then I know you are still with me at this point. Due to the precious blood of Jesus, we know that we are headed toward our heavenly home. However, those of us that are RESTING IN THE LORD have what Isaiah described as the "Fat" of God, which in the Hebrew means THE ANOINTING OF GOD. (Isa. 10:27)

I know there are many that say there is no such thing as "a second blessing," some would call it the baptism of the Holy Spirit, but for us who have been graced with this wonderful blessing, we know what we're talking about. The ANOINTING has broken the yokes that bound me for 32 years. But isn't that what Isaiah said, "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."

I have done a little acrostic that I think will simplify the profound. Here it is:

A - AUTHORITY over all of God's inheritance
N - NEEDFUL, acutely aware of dependency upon God
O - ORDAINED to bear fruit; to reproduce ourselves as servants of God
I - INTIMACY with God to serve mankind
N - NOURISHING others through the Bread of Life;
the milk of the Word flows from us to the new-borns
T - TRUTHFUL, no place for falsehood or blindness
I - INTUITIVE, we see as God sees, judging not after the flesh
N - NURTURING, teaching, influencing by the example of our daily lives
G - GIVING everything we have, available to God - for eternity looms before us.

If you equate to this, how about letting me know, benjicmallory@bellsouth.net

Floating in the River of Life and loving every minute of it!
