A Fresh Anointing

Synopsis

In these last days, it is important for the body of Christ to realize that following man-made plans and formulas is not helping each believer joyfully do God's work. We believers need to get filled and remain full to overflowing with the Word of God by learning what the Word of God says so we get the Word in our hearts. We also need to be filled continuously with the Spirit of God to avoid just going through the motions of religiosity. Being continually full of God's Word and Spirit gives us a fresh anointing of God upon our lives so we can prosper in everything we do for the Kingdom. Staying in the Word keeps us in God's Presence where we can know what the Lord Jesus Christ's plan is and act upon it, which will bring Jesus the glory and honor due His Name. When we are anointed daily, we can have both personal revival and revival throughout the whole church, enabling every believer to take his place and fulfill his function in the Body of Christ. By doing God's will instead of our own, we will be Full Reservoirs rather than Empty Cisterns. The Old Testament anointing of men who were anointed to serve in the sacred offices of the prophet, priest, and king by the anointing with oil is compared and contrasted with what we experience as born-again believers with the anointing of the Holy Spirit presented in the New Testament. The Old Testament office of Priest is contrasted with our High Priest, Jesus. The whole body of Christ is a Priest, offering prayers of intercession for the non-believer and supplication for the believer, as well as praising God. We are also Kings in this life to reign with Christ's righteousness, not only in the millennium or in heaven. God is still anointing prophets, preachers, priests, and kings unto our God, and He's still anointing His people to be witnesses for Him! The author helps us look at several New Testament examples of what it means to initially be filled with and then constantly continue being filled throughout our lives with the Holy Spirit which corresponds to the Old Testament anointing and being continually anointed with fresh oil. The three outstanding characteristics of those with a fresh anointing are described. We can see the results of being anointed with fresh oil and the characteristics of those who maintain a fresh anointing of the Holy Spirit in their lives. Whatever we go through in life, if we are filled up with the Holy Spirit, we can maintain the glow in adverse circumstances.
