ANOINTED: Consecrated and Commissioned!

“The ANOINTING is God’s way of affirming and authenticating, visually and
victoriously, His divine decree, His divine disciple, and His divine design.”
Isaiah 61:1-3 The Spirit of the Lord God is upon Me; because the Lord hath anointed Me to preach good tidings unto the meek; He hath sent Me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound; [2] To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn; [3] To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that He might be glorified.
Challenging questions to ponder:
1. When were you made a new creature in Christ Jesus?
2. Did you know that as a new creature in Christ Jesus you too have been anointed with the same anointing as Jesus?
3. Who is Jesus anointed to preach the good news to?
4. How did these meek people go from being haters of God and children of wrath, who lived in enmity toward the things of God and blind to the gospel, to being submissive and teachable before this anointing? God's Word has the answer to these questions.
Enjoy searching!
