The anointing

Psalms 92:10 But my horn shalt thou exalt like [the horn of] an unicorn: I shall be anointed with fresh oil.

The anointing is the power of God working in your life. Without it, you cannot do much for God or in the ministry.  It's the anointing that makes the difference between believers and nonbelievers. And it is the manifest anointing that still makes the difference between ministers.

The anointing is a very precious thing that you should not overlook. It will change your ministry.  People will respond to you, follow you, believe in you without much reason but the anointing at work. If Christians valued the anointing more than anything else, this world would be better than it is. Many people would be healed, delivered, set free and blind eyes and ears open. 

There is a minister of God called TL Osborn who went to India but people never responded to his ministry until he identified a man of God who was flowing in the gifts of healing and submitted to him. When he returned to India,  crowds followed him in his meetings because of the healing power which was flowing through him. 

Unless you want to be a preacher without miracles flowing in your life, but if you want to have miracles, signs and wonders in your ministry, you need to pursue the anointing.  The day you have it, you too will know and everyone around you. 

Some preachers are only intellectual giants of scripture.  With much doctrine but lacking the power to prophesy or heal the sick. But there are places where no doctrine will cause men to believe but only the outworking power of God. 

It is good to set your life on course so early so that you see some of the things our fathers saw. Elisha saw an anointing on Elijah and that did not make him settle for anything less. Not even oxen were worth sparing in his pursuit to follow after the man of God. And you find Christians so attached to their oxen that they forsake the anointing for the oxen! It is time you killed those sacred oxen which hinder you from following after the anointing. 

Precious things are so rare. The anointing too is rare, anointed men too are rare.  Desire nothing less this year than to be anointed. 

Further scriptures 

1 Kings 19:19-21 So he departed thence, and found Elisha the son of Shaphat, who [was] plowing [with] twelve yoke [of oxen] before him, and he with the twelfth: and Elijah passed by him, and cast his mantle upon him. And he left the oxen, and ran after Elijah, and said, Let me, I pray thee, kiss my father and my mother, and [then] I will follow thee. And he said unto him, Go back again: for what have I done to thee? And he returned back from him, and took a yoke of oxen, and slew them, and boiled their flesh with the instruments of the oxen, and gave unto the people, and they did eat. Then he arose, and went after Elijah, and ministered unto him.

Justified by faith

Romans 5:1 Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: God has made us right with Himself. This is extremely good news because we could not measure up to His standard of righteousness portrayed by the law.  Most religions including some who profess Christianity advocate for a "do right and be right with God" kind of relating with God. This puts the burden of salvation upon the performance of the adherents to such religions. On the other hand true Bible faith, says believe right and then be made right with God independent of your actions. All this is because of God's goodness who wants all to be saved whether they have any previous morally good life or not. If you really get a revelation of this you would burst for joy and rejoice in what God has made you instead of what you can do for Him, hallelujah! It all starts with faith. If you believe you are justified or are forever made just before him, it affects your life in a certa...

When a heart(soul) heals

Many hearts are wounded, broken, sick, depressed, bleeding but when the heart of a man heals, they start to live again. That man starts to blossom, to dream again, to shine brighter and to love again. Psalm 34:18, But the Lord is close to the broken hearts, to the wounded, frustrated ones, He is always there. Surprisingly many people are broken hearted and they don't know what to do. Because of the failure they have experienced before, they face shame and as a result they choose to hide themselves. Some end up committing suicide since they feel hopeless and their dreams beyond reach.  If you happen to be in this situation first and foremost you need to forgive yourself, release that anger and let go of the past. Secondly you need revelation of your identity in Christ. If you aren't born again, you need to first surrender to Jesus as Lord. God is more willing to heal your heart(soul) and your story than you do. All He needs is our consent and cooperation. Let go and let God.  T...

A year of good things

Image
Matthew 7:11 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him? Years represent new seasons. Every season God has a specific word for us His children that we need to run with. When we run the year based on that Word, our results will be evident. In this season as the Streams of life and Nations churches God gave us a word through our Father Bishop Gerald Mwebe that we are going to have good things.  Last year 2025, was a year of great grace. This year God prophetically is giving us good things. One of the good things He has already given us is the gospel. The gospel is the message we preach and live by. We need to realise as believers that we have a message which will touch lives not only in this world but for eternity. The gospel is not only for non believers but for nonbelievers also. Many believers all they hear are the curses that follow them from the past generations....
