THE MINDSET OF THE ANOINTED 1
“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 (KJV)
There are people who assume they will automatically accomplish great things just because there is an anointing on their lives.
The anointing of God doesn’t work automatically.
In reality, those who do great things in the Kingdom did not receive greater anointing than those who do nothing.
“Now, it is God Himself who has anointed us. And He is constantly strengthening both you and us in union with Christ” 2 Corinthians 1:21 (TPT)
The anointing is of God’s Spirit.
“But you have an anointing from the Holy One [you have been set apart, specially gifted and prepared by the Holy Spirit], and all of you know [the truth because He teaches us, illuminates our minds, and guards us from error].” 1 John 2:20 (Amplified Bible)
Every believer has the Holy Spirit.
“And because of Him, when you who are not Jews heard the revelation of truth, you believed in the wonderful news of salvation. Now we have been stamped with the seal of the promised Holy Spirit“ Ephesians 1:13 (TPT)
From the above verses, we can conclude that all believers have received the same measure of the anointing through salvation. The anointing is given even as the Holy Spirit indwells a believer.
Now then does it seem others are more anointed?
It is simply how every believer cultivates the anointing in them. The anointing in you doesn’t work automatically. The anointing of the Holy Spirit must be nurtured and put to work.
You cultivate the anointing in you through prayer and also through service.
Another crucial medium through which the anointing will find expression is your MINDSET.
Your mindset is the means by which you convey the verities of God within your Spirit.
The impact you make is not just about the anointing in you but the mindset you possess. The anointing will respond to your mindset.
The limitations in your mind are the limitations on the anointing in you. The anointing is subject to your mindset. Whatever you are not conceiving, the anointing will not do.
It’s one thing to be anointed and it’s another thing to use the anointing to produce results.
You can be heavily anointed and will not be able to achieve anything big.
You will never achieve great things until you have the mindset for great things.
Whatever you think you cannot do, the anointing will not do.
You cannot have the mindset of impossibility and expect the anointing to automatically do the impossible with you.
The anointing operates at the frequency of your mindset and consciousness. You will not see greater manifestations of healing anointing when you don’t have the mindset to heal the sick.
Jesus went about doing good because He knew what the anointing could do. There are even believers who are not conscious of the anointing in them.
If you are not conscious of the anointing you cannot take advantage of it.
Jesus knew how He was anointed.
He knew what the anointing could do.
He knew how to put the anointing to work.
And He was confident about the anointing.
See this:
“When he came to Nazareth, where he had been raised, he went into the synagogue, as he always did on the Sabbath day. When Jesus came to the front to read the Scriptures, they handed him the scroll of the prophet Isaiah. He unrolled the scroll and read where it is written, “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, and he has anointed me to be hope for the poor, freedom for the brokenhearted, and new eyes for the blind, and to preach to prisoners, ‘You are set free!’ I have come to share the message of Jubilee, for the time of God’s great acceptance has begun.”
After he read this he rolled up the scroll, handed it back to the minister, and sat down. Everyone stared at Jesus, wondering what he was about to say. Then he added, “These Scriptures came true today in front of you.” Luke 4:16-21 (TPT).
Such an audacious mindset.
No wonder he went about doing good.
Beloved, have the consciousness of the anointing of the Spirit in you. Don’t limit the anointing of God’s Spirit. This anointing is in you to accomplish great things.
The question is not whether the anointing works or not. The question is what is your mindset?
What do you intend to do more with the anointing?
Selah!
