You are anointed

“And I have filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship,” 
Exodus 31:3(KJV)

The anointing is the empowerment of God's Spirit for a particular purpose. I want you to know that without the anointing of God's Spirit it is impossible to fulfil God's calling on your life, that is why whenever God wants to do something with your life He anoints you for it.

God specifically anoints you for the purpose for which He has called you. For instance there is an anointing to do business, there is an anointing to pastor a church, there is an anointing to sing, there is an anointing to write, and it is important you know that the measure of anointing on your life is what will determine the measure of your effectiveness in your calling.

When God anoints you for a particular purpose, most times at the beginning, you may not walk in the fullness of that anointing, you would have to increase in it. For instance the Bible tells us in Luke 2:40 that Jesus was full of wisdom. Then again in Luke 2:52 the Bible says, “And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man.” I want you to notice that the Bible said initially in Luke 2:40 that Jesus was full with wisdom and then in Luke 2:52, the Bible said Jesus increased in wisdom showing us that Jesus did not function in the fullness of the wisdom at once because wisdom is in levels. So for every level, He functioned at the highest level of wisdom for that level.

Therefore child of God, when you discover God's plan and purpose for your life, it is important you know that the anointing to fulfil that purpose is already released towards you. Therefore I encourage you to release your faith and receive grace to function in the fullness of the anointing required for greater  effectiveness in every level of your life.

PRAYER
Dear Father I receive grace today from your Spirit to function in the fullness of the anointing that will produce in me greater effectiveness for this phase of my life in Jesus Name. Amen.

Vitality in the Spirit

“But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you …” 
Acts 1:8(KJV)

The day you received the Holy Ghost you stopped being a weakling because the Holy Ghost is the Spirit of might. I want you to know that the power of the Holy Spirit in your life will not only make you strong spiritually but it will also make you strong physically. Remember Samson.

The Bible says in Romans 8:11, “But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.” The word quicken in that verse means to 'vitalize', it also means to 'make alive' or 'to give life'.

Therefore, it doesn't matter the infirmity or weakness you may have been born with or that is prevalent in your family. Now that you are born again and have received the Holy Spirit, you need to know and be conscious of what you have received, the power of the Holy Spirit in you is able to vitalize your body, and this power of the Spirit is mostly activated when we pray in other tongues.

So whenever you pray in the Spirit know that the life of God is been communicated to your body; to vitalize your body and to destroy every weakness and infirmity, as a result you are empowered to live in divine health and vitality always.
   
CONFESSION
In the Name of Jesus I declare that the Spirit that raised up Christ from the dead dwells in me, therefore the Spirit of God vitalizes my body and destroys every weakness and infirmity by His power that dwells in me. Amen.

Let God show you visions

“And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions:” 
Joel 2:28(KJV)

From our opening scripture we see that when the Holy Spirit comes upon you, one of the things He does is to empower you to see visions, this is why the Bible says, “…your young men shall see visions”.

God wants to show you visions. He wants to show you pictures. These pictures are what will guide you into your future. The Lord Jesus while He was here on earth was able to see ahead; that was why He said in John 5:19, “... The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.” The pictures He saw from the realm of the Spirit shaped His future.

God can also show you visions to guide you into your future. Kenneth Hagin said when He prays for his meetings, he would see visions; he may see a vision of someone on a wheel chair or someone lying down flat and he saw himself going to raise the person up in the vision. So when he comes into the meeting and he sees someone in the condition he saw in the vision earlier, he knows God wants to heal that person, so he walks there and raises the person up. He was confident to do that because he saw what the Father was doing, and he did it, and it worked.

Your life can be that way too. If you have not started experiencing such, you can ask the Father and He will begin to show you visions because it is part of the ministry of the Holy Spirit in your life.

PRAYER
Dear Father I ask that you anoint my eyes with eye salve to be able to see the visions of your Spirit concerning my future and all that you have called me to do. I thank you for as I see what you are doing, faith is stirred up in my heart to do likewise in Jesus Name. Amen.

Activate the ability of the Spirit

“Wherefore I put thee in remembrance that thou stir up the gift of God, which is in thee by the putting on of my hands. For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” 
2 Timothy 1:6-7(KJV)

Today I want you to know that the day you received the Holy Spirit, an anointing came upon you to make you a success in life. This is because you received all the ability of the Spirit into you the day you received the Holy Spirit. This means that all the wisdom of God is inside of you if you have received the Holy Spirit. See 1 Corinthians 1:30.

Therefore if you have received the Holy Spirit as a child of God, stop making wrong confessions about your self and your job. Stop saying words like, “I don't just understand my job” or “I am just confused, and I don't know what to do.” Instead of making such complains, why don't you just take out some time to pray in the Spirit concerning all that's bothering you.

When you pray in the Spirit in other tongues, you are activating the power of God and the abilities of the Holy Spirit will be activated in your life. As you pray with this understanding in the Spirit, wisdom will be activated in you, your fears will fade, you will be empowered by the Spirit to do the previously impossible. It will also produce in you a new sense of confidence and peace, it will produce soundness in your mind and discipline in your life.

I encourage you to maximize the abilities of the Spirit in you by exercising yourself in the Spirit and praying in other tongues everyday.

PRAYER
Dear Father I thank you for giving me the gift of the Holy Spirit. Therefore I declare that my life is filled with power, my life is filled with love, and I have a sound mind filled with wisdom, discipline and excellence in Jesus Name. Amen.

Plugged into Power

“For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.”
1 Corinthians 14:2(KJV)

Today I will like to share with you the story of a lady who testified concerning what happened when robbers came to her house. She said while she laid on the floor, she began to speak in other tongues, and as she went on and on praying in the Holy Ghost, those robbers could not do anything to her and neither could they take anything from her house and they left.

What gave her that result? It was her level of understanding. She knew what happens when she prays in other tongues. This is because you cannot walk in the power of God beyond your understanding of that power.

A dear man of God told a story about a man that was kidnaped and was taken to a place where he was supposed to be killed. When the men who was supposed to kill him came out and began to move towards him, he began to speak in tongues and the men moved backward. When he noticed how the men reacted when he spoke  in tongues, he continued  speaking in tongues, and as he did the men left him and he escaped unharmed. Some time after that incident, he was in Oba market in Benin City and a man who he was unfamiliar with greeted him and introduced himself as one of those who kidnaped him and tried to kill him, but as he wanted to quickly get away from this strange man, the man began confessing and telling him why they couldn't kill him. The man said as he spoke in tongues, fire was coming out of his mouth towards them and that was why they had to let him go.

Child of God I want you to know that you have been plugged into the power of God and all of God is now inside of you, no weapon formed against you shall prosper because of your union with deity.    

CONFESSION
In the Name of Jesus I declare that I have been plugged into power because I have received the Holy spirit and power. Therefore whenever I pray in the Spirit in other tongues the power of God is stirred up in me for exploits. Amen.

Christ consciousness

“My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until Christ be formed in you,” 
Galatians 4:19(KJV)  

Today, our opening scripture reveals to us what it truly means to be a Christian; it is Christ reproduced in you. Being a Christian does not mean to be weak or powerless as those who lack understanding may want to portray Christianity.

I will like to share with you the testimony of a brother who understood what Christianity was. While he was in the park on his way to church one day, armed robbers were shooting sporadically  into the air, and before he could escape, he was met by a stray bullet. Now instead of the bullet to enter into his body, it touched him, rolled down his body and fell to the ground even as he remained unhurt. Immediately this happened, all those who witnessed it gathered around him and he used that opportunity to preach to them.Wow.

You may want to ask, why didn't the bullet enter? It is because he is conscious that he is wrapped with the Holy Spirit and power. Are you also living your , life conscious of this reality; that you are wrapped up with the Holy Spirit and power? It is important for you to live with that consciousness because your safety depends on it.

CONFESSION
In the Name of Jesus, I declare that I dwell in the secret place of the Most High, therefore I abide under the shadow of the Almighty. No evil shall befall me neither shall any plague come near my dwelling. I am protected from the pestilence that walks in darkness and the destruction that wasteth at noon day. A thousand shall fall at my side and ten thousand at my right hand but it shall not come near me because I am wrapped up with the Holy Spirit and power.

You are sentenced to succeed

“According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:” 
2 Peter 1:3(KJV)

Do you know that the day you received the Holy Spirit who is the power of God, you received all that you require for life and godliness? You received all you require for life and godliness the day the power of God came into you when you received the Holy Spirit.

Child of God I want you to know that the day you started speaking in tongues, you were sentenced to success. A lot of Christians do not know what they received the day they received the Holy Spirit. This is why John the Apostle wrote in 1 John 4:4 saying, “Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.”

The Greater One lives in you, therefore stop being afraid of the devil, he has been defeated and he is under your feet. Our Lord Jesus won the victory for us and has declared us more than conquerors in Him. Praise God.

CONFESSION
In the Name of Jesus I declare that in Christ Jesus I am victorious over satan and all his wiles against me. I have been sentenced to a life of success because I have all I require for life and godliness by His divine power that is at work in me.
