Everything against me is getting weaker and weaker and I am getting stronger and stronger, because I am Anointed. Please Read: 1 Samuel 16 ;1 Samuel 15:11 ;2 Samuel 3: 2 Samuel 5:4
Dear Friend,
We are still talking about the Anointing of God. We have already studied in previous lessons that the anointing is the approval of God on the life of the believer who is seriously performing his or her God ordained assignment. This week we found out that no matter the onslaught of the enemy against your life you have an advantage because you are anointed of God. Whilst the enemy is waxing weaker and weaker, you are waxing stronger and stronger. We also found out that the anointing of God does not always rest on a person forever just because they were previously approved. Somehow God links the consistent flow of the anointing to following Him every step of the way towards the fulfillment of our assignments.
We learn from King Saul of Israel’s experience in 1 Samuel 15 ,that because he did not follow the step by step instructions God had commanded him concerning the utter destruction of the Amalekites, he was rejected from being King. However Saul continued to reign as king for several years, and because he did not have the approval of God to be king, he possessed positional authority and not the power to be successful. A word of caution here, when God speaks to you to perform a task ,you do not have to confer with the opinions of men. Make sure you do it exactly the way He showed you. Saul listened to the people and made a god out of them by pleasing them more than God, therefore David was approved to take his place. If God pulls one down and raises up another, the latter is always better.
Following God’s rejection of Saul, David is approved and anointed with oil by the prophet Samuel to be the next king of Israel. Years go by, battles and confrontations go by between the house of Saul and the house of David ,because Saul refused to recognize the fact that God preferred David above him. Instead of allowing his flesh to lead, David waited patiently for many years ,following God every step of the way , with the right attitude and even showed respect towards his political opponents ,till God released him to be king first, over Judah and then, the whole of Israel.
What ever you are faced with in the course of fulfilling your assignment should not distract you from being effective. What ever your assignment is, keep doing it with the right attitude and be sure to follow and obey God’s direction every step of the way to ensure victory. Like David if someone is sitting in your place of honor, house, promotion or other, for as long as you remain anointed the tide is sure to change in your favor. God will do anything for His anointed, even if it means causing your enemies to destroy themselves for your sake!
