O Ye gifted ones, follow your calling, let neither obstacles nor temptations induce you to leave it; bound along if you can; if not, on hands and knees follow it. Turn into other paths, and, for momentary advantage or gratification, ye have sold your inheritance, your immortality. (: George Borrow )
Anointing by: J.Davidson
"As for you, the anointing you received from him remains in you, and you do not need anyone to teach you. But as his anointing teaches you about all things and as that anointing is real, not counterfeit - just as it has taught you, remain in him" (1 John 2:27).
Do you know your anointing? An anointing is a gift that functions easily when it is operating in you to benefit others and the Kingdom of God. If one has to "work it up" one has probably gone outside one's anointing.
One area that I have a God-given anointing is in the area of disarming people.
I could be someone's best friend in five minutes. I disarm people faster than anyone I have been told. There is no way you can be a shy person around me.
I have seen people open up, where they would not open up to anyone else.
God has connected me with people all around the world. Many times people call me about something and my natural response is, "Oh, you need to contact so and so. He can help you with that." A mentor once said to me, "Your inheritance is in relationships." What he was saying is that my anointing is in relationships.
True anointing don’t always come easy, sometime you have to show your self’s approved unto God by studying and applying God's word to you life.
2 Timothy 2:15, Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
As Christians, it is our duty to know God's Word and what it
Say’s about us.
Where do you move naturally in your life? What do you do that you don't have to work at it? Chances are that is your anointing. God wants you to walk in the anointing he has given to you.
Pursue love, and desire spiritual gifts, but especially that you may prophesy. 1Cor 14:1 NKJV.
