After passing the wilderness test, Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit to minister healing and deliverance to those in need. The secret of Jesus’ ministry was the Holy Spirit. The source of miracles was the Holy Spirit. The power by which He cast out demons, healed the sick, and raised the dead was the Holy Spirit. We call this power, “the anointing.” Jesus set an example that ministry should be done with the anointing.
Appointing needs anointing, and calling needs God’s power. We can’t do the spiritual aspects of our ministry with degrees. Demons don’t get cast out because of our education. People don’t get healed because we have information. These things are important, but Jesus’ ministry was marked by the power of the Holy Spirit. Ours should be too.
In Acts 1:8, Jesus promised the same to us. He said that we will receive power when the Spirit comes upon us. The power of the Holy Spirit is not for us, but for others. It’s not for status, but for service. This power is not meant to validate a person, but to glorify Jesus. This power is not even for miracles, but to draw people to salvation. Healing, deliverance, and all of God’s blessings are meant to reveal Jesus, point to the cross, and draw men to eternal salvation. To walk in the anointing, we must walk in the Holy Spirit. If we are living in the flesh and feeding our sinful mind, our life and ministry will not be saturated with God’s grace, but only with human strength and wisdom.
Let’s pray:
Holy Spirit, help me live out the calling and purpose for which I was made.
關於此計劃
Jesus was filled, led, and empowered by the Spirit. At His ascension, He prayed to the Father that His followers would have the same power available to them by depending on the Holy Spirit. We are called to pick up our cross and follow Him, but we can’t do that unless we rely on the Holy Spirit the same way He did. Find out more in Spirit-Filled Jesus.
