Topic: You Are Anointed

Text: "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" (Acts 10:38).

Exodus 33:11 says Moses met God face to face.
It wasn’t that he literally saw God’s face,
because God tells him that no one can see it and
live (see Exod. 33:20). It means Moses was
communing directly in God’s presence. You
would think this was the highest possible
encounter one could have with God. However, it
must not have been, because later Moses begs
God to reveal His glory to him (see Exod. 33:18).
Why did
he act as though something was still missing?
Unlike us, Moses had not experienced the glory
within him. When he left the tabernacle where
God was, he didn’t have the same presence
there with him. In addition to the glory without,
we who are in Christ experience the glory within
everywhere we go! Moses would have dreamed
to know what that was like. It’s what Jesus
communicated to the woman at the well in John
4:21-23. It wasn’t about going to a particular
location to meet God, but rather having God in
you everywhere you go. Jesus had that glory and
anointing everywhere He went, and it caused the
oppressed to go free.
Because Jesus lives in you, you are anointed
without and within. That same glory and power
goes everywhere you do! So say this today, “I am
anointed!”

PRAYER
Dear Lord, I thank You that Your glory is within
me today everywhere I go. I shall use it to do
good and minister to those who need it. I declare
today, I am anointed! In Jesus’ Name, amen.
