His Anointing (Part 1)

For I long to see you so that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to strengthen you, Romans 1:11 ESV

Words from Jesus AUGUST 25, 2016

“You have been anointed by the Holy One, and you all have knowledge.”—1 John 2:201

I have a mantle just for you that I drape over your shoulders. It is My anointing. It is the presence of My Spirit in you. It is the strength and encouragement that you need. This mantle is available to all who love Me and serve Me, but each one is different, for it must fit the wearer. Each one is different in color, in size, and in tailoring—and yours is tailored just for you!

I clothe all My servants with the mantle of My anointing—not to cover up, but to enhance. You have the mantle of My Spirit, with its power, love, wisdom, and truth. Never forget that you wear it; it is a symbol of My presence and a great honor.

I have chosen you and anointed you, because you have chosen Me. I have ordained you to go and bring forth much fruit, fruit that will remain. You are worthy, because I gave My life for you. I paid the price. You have been ransomed, and your ransom has been paid.

I love you, and I know that you serve Me because you love Me. What can separate you from this love? Nothing. Even when you are tempted or when you stumble and fall, you will always find My way of escape, and the mantle of My Spirit will always guide and protect you.

Strength in quietness

“For thus the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel, has said, ‘In repentance and rest you will be saved, In quietness and trust is your strength.’”—Isaiah 30:15 (2)

You cannot receive the full power, love, and wisdom that you need unless you take time in quietness, seeking Me and praising Me. There are always so many things to be done, and it is a constant temptation to hurry, to push ahead, to accomplish. But I say to you, in quietness and confidence will be your strength. For it is in quietness that you will hear the still, small voice of God speaking to you, saying, “This is the way, walk ye in it.”

Great power, wisdom, and love can be found in quietness, in My peace that surpasses all understanding. If you could see the spiritual gifts that I have for you and the strength that I can empower you with! If you could see tangibly, with your eyes, the answers that I have for you and the anointing of My Spirit upon you, you would have greater understanding and you would not fail to take the time to stop and be guided by My still, small voice.

So often your earthly vision is clouded and all that you can see is that there is so much to do, and you feel compelled to labor and labor some more. But I have asked you to labor to enter into My rest. As you do so, I will strengthen, anoint, empower, and guide you.

It is at those times that I instruct and guide you, and it is in those quiet moments when you access the wisdom available to you through My Word. So don’t neglect to come to Me in quietness, and in so doing, receive all that I have for you. As you do so, you will find that your life, your relationships, your job and your ministry will flow so much more smoothly! I can anoint you with the wisdom that you seek and the strength that you need by My Spirit.

The anointing of great faith

“Through Christ you have come to trust in God. And you have placed your faith and hope in God because he raised Christ from the dead and gave him great glory.”—1 Peter 1:21 (3)

I honor you with the high calling of discipleship. I honor you with the blessing of great faith in Me. I anoint you with the gift of great faith that trusts when it’s difficult to trust. Faith that keeps on believing when all seems to go wrong.
