WHY ANOINTED PEOPLE ARE SCARCE

STUDY SCRIPTURE: Until we’re all moving rhythmically and easily with each other, efficient and graceful in response to God’s Son, fully mature adults, fully developed within and without, fully alive like Christ. -Ephesians 4:13 (MSG).
The scarcity of a thing indicates value. As it is that precious stones are not seen just any where so also is anointing. As we approach the end of age, God is searching for those to pour out His spirit on because the anointed ones are scarce. This particular anointing is an anointing to heal but it is an anointing to live by the dictates of Christ. God wants to pour out this anointing on us to equip us for this time but the issue and question remains ARE WE READY?.
WHY TALK ABOUT SCARCITY OF THE ANOINTING?
An effective, fresh, continuous work with God is at the mercy of the anointing.
Eloquence, oratory, extra degree from prestigious universities is not equal to the anointing.
The anointing immediately sets a man apart from his age mates.
The anointing is a starting point of spiritual revival in a generation.
The anointing is the answer for this generation.
The anointing places a man as a spiritual authority.
It is of important to know that :Brokenness in every generation is as a result of the anointing. The anointing provokes jealousy and range in the kingdom of darkness. To be anointed is to become the target of the devil. Once a man is anointed hell seeks to contaminate and pollute the anointing. And that untested anointing can not become power. There is an anointing to live by and an anointing to perform.God is looking for men and women that He can be proud to call His vessel.
WHY ARE ANOINTED MEN SCARCE?
Anointed men are scarce because; these men are not ready for an attack on their earthen vessels (2nd Corinthians 4:7). The attacks on the earthen vessels includes, attack on the realms of wilderness and attack on the realms of hunger and lack. you need to be prepared for these attack anytime you desire the anointing. know that as a believer, your greatest enemy is your flesh.
further scriptures: 2nd kings 5:20-27, Luke 4:2, Obadiah 1:21.
prayer line: Oh LORD empower me not to exchange the anointing for money or few moments of pleasure, in Jesus name Amen !.

LAW OF THIRSTLESSNESS

Study Scripture

In the last day, that great [day] of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink

John 7:37 (KJV)

The reason for which so many believers are powerless is because they are not genuinely thirsty for spiritual power. The same you fail to eat when you lack appetite; that is the same way, you will lack spiritual power when you are not thirsty for God’s presence. Behind powerlessness is thirstlessness.

You cannot be thirsty for power and carnality at the same time. You cannot be thirsty for spiritual power and at the same time thirsty for sin/earthly things. Power is at the mercy of thirst and you cannot thirst until you tarry in God’s presence (Acts 1:8, Luke 24:49). It is in God’s presence that you receive spiritual empowerment. A man of spiritual thirst will always escape temptation. In God’s presence, you feed on God; see the way The Message translation puts it: You’re blessed when you’ve worked up a good appetite for God. He’s food and drink in the best meal you’ll ever eat (Matthew 5:6 MSG)

What to thirst for?

Thirst after righteousness (Matthew 5:6)

2 Thirst after prayer (Luke 18:1)

Until you’re thirsty, there is no in-filling of spiritual power (John 4: 8-15, 31-34)

In summary of this series, here is a list of all the laws of spiritual powerlessness:

A wrong heart
Spiritual Carelessness
Disregard for the demands of the cross
Thirstlessness

You shall not be a victim of these laws in Jesus name. Amen!

Prayer line: Oh LORD give me a heart that hungers and thirsts for you in Jesus name. Amen!

THE LAW OF IGNORANCE OR DISREGARD TO THE DEMANDS OF THE CROSS

STUDY SCRIPTURE:

But as for me, I will never boast about anything except the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world

Galatians 6:14 (HCSB)

Spiritual growth is a function of deliberate approach to the cross of Christ. Clinging to the cross puts fire in your bones and makes you highly resistant to the cares of this life and the caprices of the devil. Clinging to the cross simply means living by the dictates of Christ. Understanding the sacrifice of Jesus on the Cross is the first step to holiness and successful Christian life (Philippians 2:1-10).

Your spiritual growth determines how prosperous you will be and you will grow spiritually once consistently connected to the cross. When you don’t subscribe to the power of the cross, you will lack the power to live and win daily. As a believer, you must submit to the cross daily, if you must win and reign in life.

A person of the cross endures in the midst of affliction. The essence of the cross is to mature us as believers. A man of the cross does not celebrate what his present level in God, rather, he craves for a deeper walk with God on a daily basis. Thus, the world will be dead to him and he will also be dead to the world (Galatians 6:14 GNT).

WHAT THEN IS THIS CROSS?

The cross is the crux of power. That is to say that it is the base of power to win and live daily.
The cross is the New Testament power engine. That is to say that no power is realized until you cling to the cross.

Disregard to the cross and the sacredness of the cross is the reason for the powerlessness of the church and believers.

HOW DO WE DISREGARD THE CROSS?

We disregard the cross by not applying the life of the cross (1 Corinthians 1:17).
By not submitting to the details of the cross (Matthew 10:38).
By not paying allegiance to the man on the cross. The cross is of no effect without the man on the cross (1 Corinthians 1: 18).

Receive grace to cease stop disregarding the cross of Christ in Jesus name. Amen

Further scriptures: Galatians 6:14-18, Luke 24:11, 2 Corinthians, James 1:1-5

Prayer line: Oh LORD I ask for help from the cross to become mature in you in Jesus in Name.

PROPHETIC ACTIONS/RESPONSIBILITIES OF A WINNING LIFE

STUDY SCRIPTURE:

If they obey and serve Him, They shall spend their days in prosperity, And their years in pleasures.

Job 36:11-12 (NKJV)

Every blessing of God is received on the platform of responsibility. If you don’t feed your spirit you’ll be a victim of constant satanic attack. You feed your spirit by growing your faith in God. And faith comes at the mercy of responsibility. If you must be a winner, you must engage the power of faith accompanied with responsibility. Once you engage the power of faith, challenges will give way.

WHAT ARE PROPHETIC ACTIONS?

Prophetic actions are faith-moves that make life profitable.
Prophetic actions are what make your moves to become waves.
Prophetic actions are compulsory instruments that make you win in health and life.
Prophetic actions are the scriptural instructions needed for maximized living.

Faith will not produce without prophetic actions. If you don’t take practical actions, you’ll be stranded.

THE THREE (3) PROPHETIC ACTIONS/ RESPONSIBILITY

Instant or prompt obedience faith.

In order for your faith to work, you must obey the prophetic word and prophecies over your life (2 kings 5: 10-13). Until you obey God you can’t excel (Deuteronomy 28:1). Sometimes, these instructions may look too simple but they are very crucial.

The action of dedicated service (Job 36 :11)

Once you subscribe to dedicated service, you faith will produce results. Remember, faith without works is dead (James 2:26)

How to serve? You serve with fear and rejoicing (Psalm 2:11). You serve with singing and gladness (Psalm 100:2). A service to God might look simple but it produces much.

Further scripture: Deuteronomy 28: 47, Isaiah 1:19, Hebrews 11:1, 2:14-15.

Prayer line: Oh LORD give me a heart of service to your Kingdom in Jesus Name Amen.
