The Lord's Anointed

1 Samuel 16:13

It is not everyone who has the anointing.
Though the anointing is available for everyone to have, not everyone receives the anointing.
Salvation is the gateway to the anointing.

The anointing is a gift and spiritual investment God puts in a life.
1 Timothy 4:14

Your looks or good dress sense cannot fetch you the anointing.
Your education does not entitle you to the anointing.
Scheming is will not get you the anointing.
Church attendance does not necessarily guarantee you the anointing.
Common sense or human wisdom will not fetch you the anointing.
Human opinion or belief is not what gets you the anointing.

Your heart has a lot to do with qualifying you for the anointing.
1 Samuel 16:7

A good heart is one of life's great treasures.
A good heart puts you in a position to receive gifts from the Lord.
David's godly and good heart was part of what qualified him for the anointing.

The Lord's anointed may not necessarily be a perfect person.
Most times, people chosen for the anointing are not.
They have their flaws, makes their mistakes and are human like everyone else. But God looks deep into their heart and qualifies them for the anointing for reasons many people cannot see.

The Lord's anointed is simply the person who has the Lord's anointing.
The anointing is the presence of the Holy Spirit that makes you function in an office or assignment.
The anointing makes you God's man or woman for the job.
The anointing is what shows you have God's approval to do what you're doing.
The anointing makes you God's exclusive property.
Psalm 105:15

It is a privilege to be anointed.
It is a great honor to have the Holy Spirit work with you.
Our relationship with the Holy Spirit should be developed, it should grow.
As our relationship with God's Spirit grows our confidence in the anointing upon our lives increases.
1 John 2:20

The anointing makes us effective in life and ministry. 
The anointing makes us face life with the needed boldness and confidence.

Some benefits of the anointing:
1. Power - Acts 10:38
 with the anointing (the Holy Spirit) comes power.

2. Dominion over evil - Acts 19:11,12


3. Dreams and visions from God - Joel 2:28


4. Effectiveness for God - Luke 4:18

5. Restoration of health - Romans 8:11

6. Enemies are defeated - Isaiah 54:15-17


7. Divine direction - Romans 8:14

8. Teaches you all things - 1 John 2:27


9. Knowledge and truth is supplied - John 16:13
The anointing upon your life will lead you into all truth and what is true for your life.


10. Sealed unto redemption - Ephesians 4:30
the anointing upon you is the seal upon your life that you are a son or daughter of God.
This seal upon your life is the reason you will make heaven.

Your Father Hears

Matthew 6:5,6 Prayer should be directed to the Father. Jesus showed this when He taught His disciples the Lord's prayer. It should be a great comfort to you to know that the creator and God of all hears you when you pray. This should encourage you to pray and keep praying. In our day to day relationships with people our communication will reduce towards those who don't pay attention when we're talking to them. The good thing about God is that He is never distracted. Know you have His attention when you pray . He can be communicated with. He hears, He created the ears. Psalm 94:9 Jesus encouraged prayer. Matthew 26:40 Jesus taught prayer. Luke 11:1,2 If Jesus prayed, you will need to pray. Why Should You Pray? *Pray because prayer brings God's intervention. Isaiah 38:5,6 *Pray because that's how you are authorized to communicate with God. 1 Thessalonians 15:16-18 *Pray because it is a major way of birthing God's will on earth. 1 Kings 18...

Out Of The Ashes

Isaiah 61:3 Ashes are not seen as useful substances. Ashes are waste that's thrown away. Ashes are what is left after a substance is burnt out. Your life may seem like ashes right now but something good and beautiful can come out of it when it's given to God. You may feel like an ash yourself. You may be feeling burnt out from unpleasant experiences of the past, the previous week, the last Month , or the the last year and life's battles may have left you burnt out. Know that out of your ashes can come beauty! God is the one who gives us beauty for ashes. God can make you and your life beautiful! Don't make the ashes your permanent state. God can make your season of ashes work out into a season of glory for you. Romans 8:28 The phoenix is a mystical and fictional bird that burns out after living for about six centuries. After burning itself out it rises from it's ashes renewed, youthful and revitalized to live through another life cycle. Like the p...
