[Acts 10:38 KJV] “How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him”.
We know that we are called and graced to preach the gospel to the nations. We are called and graced and sent to preach the gospel, cast out devils, heal the sick, cleanse lepers, and raise the dead. This involves travelling, preaching the word, starting local church meetings, ordaining elders, and confirming the souls of men. We can carry out this mandate if we begin to dominate by the anointing.
Matthew 14:10-36, we learn five secrets from the life of the Lord on how to dominate by the anointing. We learn that when the Lord Jesus Christ heard that John Baptist had been beheaded and buried by his disciples, He departed from the city and went into the wilderness but the crowd followed and He ministered to them. If you read the story carefully you will learn that to dominate by the anointing as the Lord did, you must;
Be a self-starter:
There are times when you must know what to do. You may not always have someone to tell you what to do. You must be a self-starter.
Walk in wisdom:
When the Lord heard that John the Baptist had been beheaded, He left the city and went into the wilderness. You must have the wisdom move away from danger. You must discern what must be done at any point in time. The anointing is for impact and not for decoration. May the Lord release upon us great grace and wisdom to win!
Be people oriented:
As the saying goes, “live for yourslef and you will live in vain, but live for others and you will in their hearts forever. Our Lord Jesus Christ was a man of the people. When He saw the people, He was moved with compassion. He served them with compassion, empathy, and consideration. You will have domnion when you are people oriented. You will rule when you seek to serve people rather than looking for people to serve you.
Be spiritually conscious in preparation but don’t be superstitious:
You don’t need a prophet to tell you something is working against you; there is a thief out there. There is an adversary out there, there are wicked and unreasonable men out there. The Lord spent hours alone in the mountains and when He stepped out, He dominated even the storms. Even though those who rule prepare constantly, you must still be spiritually conscious. Be in prayer and continue in prayer.
Always be there to lend a helping hand:
There are times when people around you get hit by a storm; if they do, don’t push them down further, but stretch out and help them immediately. Do not withhold good from them that it is due when it is in your power to do so. Lend a helping hand. Job was in charge because he was the eyes to the blind, ears to the deaf, mouth to the dumb, and limbs to the lame. The blessing of them that were ready to perish was upon him (See Job 29).
Hallelujah!
Be blessed; I love you
