Open Heaven: 21 Days of Fasting and Prayer

DAY 20 OF 21

RECEIVING A FRESH ANOINTING

The Bible tells many stories of how Jesus performed miracles, signs and wonders wherever He went. The Bible also tells us that He did them as a man, just as we are. But because He had the anointing of the Holy Spirit, He moved in power to bring healing, breakthrough, and freedom to others. Under an Open Heaven, God pours out this same anointing on us, so we can be just as effective as Jesus was in His ministry.

When God calls us, He anoints us for His work. He anoints us to bless those around us through ways that are beyond our natural abilities. You can boldly preach the gospel to your family and friends and see them saved, pray for sick people and see them healed, and minister to the broken-hearted and see their joy restored.

The Holy Spirit works, even through our weaknesses. God declares, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is made perfect in weakness.” God has freely given you the anointing so that you may serve Him in power. Even if you feel unqualified, the Holy Spirit anoints you to touch the world in a unique way that only you can! Be encouraged - it isn't you. It's the Holy Spirit working through you!

We can do greater works as we operate in His anointing. Shortly before Jesus went to the cross, He said these words: “...anyone who believes in me will do the same works I have done, and even greater works because I am going to be with the Father.” This same promise holds true for you today.

The best way to experience God’s anointing flowing through you is to go to where the needs are and begin ministering God’s love and grace. Start believing you are anointed. Start now, and see a greater manifestation of His power in, and through, your life.

Response:
What are some feelings, thoughts, or things in your life that hold you back from moving in the anointing?

Ask God for a fresh anointing! If we are to do new things for the kingdom, we cannot just rely on what we have received in the past.

Prayer:
Dear God, thank You for anointing me to serve You and to bless those around me. By faith, I receive a fresh anointing to do the extraordinary things that You are calling me to. Let me be a channel of Your love and power to this world. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.
