ANOINTED
Dag Heward-Mills 

READ: 2 Corinthians 1:19-22
How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all ... for God was with him.
Acts 10:38
 
The anointing is the Holy Spirit. Every teaching you hear about the Holy Spirit is a teaching about the anointing.
The word “anointing” is both a verb and a noun. “Anointing” can mean the substance used to anoint a person - for example, the anointing oil. Anointing can also mean the act of pouring oil on someone. When I speak of the anointing, I speak of the person of the Holy Spirit that is given to you to do the work of God. It is important to go beyond the anointed to see the anointing. The anointed is enveloped with the anointing of the Holy Spirit.
Jesus Christ of Nazareth went about doing good because He was anointed with the Holy Ghost and with power. Jesus could have been anointed with olive oil, engine oil, coconut oil or with Vaseline. If he had been anointed with any of these things we would safely say that the anointing substance is the olive oil, engine oil, coconut oil or Vaseline. But Jesus Christ was anointed with the Holy Spirit and power. We can therefore say that the anointing, the substance with which Jesus was anointed was the Holy Spirit. The mysterious Holy Spirit comes to abide upon a person who is anointed by God.
When a person is anointed, Almighty God moves to rest upon a person, within a person or to be with a person in a special way. This is what makes the person anointed and powerful. When you are dealing with an anointed person you are actually dealing with God. When you are dealing with an anointed person you are dealing with the Holy Spirit.

PUT THE SPOTLIGHT ON JESUS' FINISHED WORK - PS JOSEPH PRINCE

I was alive once without the law, but when the commandment came, sin revived and I died. And the commandment, which was to bring life, I found to bring death. Romans 7:9–10 In 1942, C S Lewis wrote a brilliant book entitled  The Screwtape Letters . It tells the story of a senior demon teaching a junior demon how to exploit man’s weaknesses and frailties. Along the same lines, I would imagine that Romans 7:9 is probably the most studied and memorized verse in hell. All junior demons would be taught this verse and the lecture would be titled, “How to bring about a revival of sin”! According to Paul, when you introduce the law, there will be a REVIVAL OF SIN! And that’s not all. Apart from reviving sin, the law also kills and brings death! Isn’t it amazing, then, that there are well-meaning ministers who preach strongly on the Ten Commandments, thinking that imposing the law would cause sin to be removed? According to Romans 3:20, “ by the law is the knowledge of sin .” I...

“Though the mountains be shaken and the   hills be removed, yet my unfailing love for you will not   be shaken nor my covenant of peace be removed,”   says the   Lord, who has compassion on you. Isaiah 54:10,  NIV I want to give you a simple but critical truth. Memorize this truth. Feed on it. Let it take root in your spirit and become an anchor in your life. You will never be the same again. Are you ready? Here it goes: As a child of God, no matter what happens in your life, your Father in heaven loves you dearly and nothing you do can ever change that. Will you believe that today? Whether you are going through good times or facing challenging times, you need to know that your Abba loves you. There is nothing that you can ever do to make Him love you more, and nothing that you can ever do to make Him love you less. Even—or perhaps  especially —when you feel like you have failed, know that you will  always  be the apple of His eye...
