Our LORD is the Consuming Fire. When He dwells in us as a whole, hell will see us as fire.
The house where the LORD dwells will be full of fire. Evil can never enter our premises. The hell will tremble in fear and flee.
Praying and praising Him, and meditating on His word will transform our house into the Throne Room of God. Angels will move around, and there will be a mighty presence of the LORD.
A sincere, wholehearted, and committed prayer can change our house into the Throne of God.
“And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said. Let there be light: and there was light” (Genesis 1:2,3) .
For, “He created man in HIS own image” (Genesis 1:26).“And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground; breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul” (Genesis 2:7). “He breathed on them, and said unto them, Receive the Holy Spirit” (John 20:22). “Jesus answered and said unto her, if you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, Give me to drink; you would have asked Him, and he would have given you living water” (John 4:10). “Jesus answered, most assuredly I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God” (John 3:5).
Our LORD JESUS CHRIST was the perfect example to this world, for the kind of life one has to lead, for He lived according to the word – Be ye Holy, as I AM Holy. With His Spirit, you are a living soul, and without it, you are equivalent to a dead soul. In order to possess His characteristics and virtues, we should receive HIS SPIRIT. Without the Holy Spirit, it is impossible to lead a perfect and holy life that is pleasing to God. Your focus should be only on the Lord. When Peter took his eyes off the LORD, he started sinking; fear struck him seeing the boisterous wind around. If you stay focused on the LORD, nothing can hinder you. When He enters your home, He will set right your home, HE will heal your body and every weakness will flee. Without the Holy Spirit, your future is bleak, and your life will be void and empty.
Greatest and the most precious treasure on this Earth is the anointing of THE HOLY SPIRIT, which you should possess.
Lord Jesus wants you. He wants to dwell in you, in your heart and in your home. He wants to change the manger in your heart to the throne of God, no matter who you are, how you are. He is not concerned about your qualification, your job, and your status. You are His temple. You are His dwelling place. He dwells in the heart that is meek. He dwelt among the meekest. The Lord Jesus came down to comfort you. He calls his children, My people. He is a very jealous and a possessive God. He does not want you to commit mistakes. He does not want you to commit sin and lose His grace.
Though there were many mangers, the Wise men visited that very special manger: for The King of Kings was born there. If the King of Kings is born in your heart, He will transform your heart. He will cleanse your sins and will make you Holy and perfect by filling you with His Holy Spirit. You will be the anointed one; the chosen precious one. You will excel in all that you do. You will be a supernatural person with supernatural gifts. Only The Holy Spirit can lead you to live a meaningful life, lest you will not know the purpose of your life and your existence.
When His Spirit enters you and your home, you will be delivered. As He descends, every darkness, discomfort, disease and distress will disappear. When the Spirit of the Lord moved, the darkness left.
You might have lost your loved one, material things, your job and possession yet, let not your heart be troubled. Pray for the anointing. Once He fills you with His Spirit, He will take complete control of your life, your family, your future and your home.
When you are anointed, your life will change. Your life will not be the same again. Only the Lord can cleanse your soul and spirit. The anointing of the Holy Spirit is the sheer sign of forgiveness.
“I will pour My Spirit upon all flesh” (Joel 2:28). In the last days, the Lord wants to pour His precious Spirit upon all His children. The Lord is prepared to anoint everyone.
Are you prepared to receive the anointing?
You will be left behind; if you are not anointed. Remember the parable of the ten virgins (Matthew 25:1-12), those who had the oil went along with the bridegroom. If you do not have the oil – the anointing you will lose your chance of entering the Kingdom of God. The Lord said in John 14: 16,26. “I will pray the Father and He will give you another Comforter (Helper) that He may abide with you forever. But the Comforter (Helper) the Holy Spirit whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you”. The anointing of the Holy Spirit is the prerequisite condition to enter the Kingdom of God.
Sin will mar you. Sin will destroy your body, Sin will destroy your home, Sin will keep you away from the true blessings of the Heaven. Sin will lead you to hell. Tomorrow is too late. You will miss the opportunity of entering the Kingdom of God.
“I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved” (John 10:9). Repent now: for the time is at hand. As you surrender yourself to Him whole-heartedly, He will touch your heart. He will help you to repent. All that you have committed from your childhood to this day will flash across your mind. If you have not repented whole-heartedly, the sins will haunt you, it will torment you. “Ask, and it shall be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and it shall be opened to you” (Matthew 7:7). “I will come in to him and dine with him and he with Me” (Revelations 3:20).
“Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand” (Matthew 4:17). Repentance is a cleansing process. The body is the vessel and the vessel has to be clean. At the mount of Horeb, Prophet Mosses, the meekest was commanded by the Lord to put off his shoes. That was his past. Later he saw the Lord, the fire and was commissioned for a great mission. Your past sins have to be rooted out and cleansed. Water baptism is the sign for cleansing your sins and the past. You become a new person. John the Baptist said, “I indeed baptize you with water but one mightier than I is coming whose sandal strap I am not worthy to loose: He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire” (Luke 3:16). Water Baptism is a confirmation, that you have joined a community of believers but the Baptism of the Holy Spirit is the sheer sign of forgiveness. You put your first step on the ladder to the Heaven only after receiving the anointing of the Holy Spirit. That is the visa to enter the Kingdom of God.
Set your eyes on the Lord. Let your focus be on Him. Repent for all your sins. Ask Him to fill you with His Holy Spirit. Once you experience the love of the Holy Spirit you will be prepared to do everything for Him.
The Holy Spirit is stronger than the strongest, mightier than the mightiest. In weakness, He is your strength. He is the Father of the Fatherless, the Husband of the widow, the Guide to the lost and the Physician to the sick. He satiates the weary soul and replenishes the sorrowful soul.
Our Lord Jesus Christ led a very successful life. His eyes were on the mission for which He was sent. The mission ahead is very serious. You are called for a great purpose. He wants to utilize you for this great mission. He wants to equip you with His shield and armour. The Mighty Holy Spirit will move before you. He will set right everything in your life and make the crooked things straight.
Few years ago, while I was waiting at the Lord’s feet, I had a spiritual visitation to an enormous hall in Heaven. I could see myself in the same kneeling position, as I was in flesh in my room. I looked around and there was none, but me all alone kneeling. The walls extended to an infinite height and it looked like frosted glass glittering, like crystal. There was complete silence and the silence was frightening. Suddenly, I heard the great thundering voice of the Almighty LORD. He said, “My son, the silence here is to tell you how serious I am. Go and tell this world, that I am a SERIOUS GOD.”
Our God is a very serious God. We His children will have to lead a serious, holy and perfect life. In order to lead a life pleasing to Him, the anointing of the Holy Spirit is vital.
Lord Jesus never laughed during His earthly ministry. But, our “Lord Jesus wept” (John 11:35). He weeps even today. He weeps every day: for man has not known the Creator, the children have not known the Father, the sheep has not known the Shepherd and the servant has not known the Master.
How to receive the anointing of the Holy Spirit.
“Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin” (Psalms 51:2).
“But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin. If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness” (1 John 1:6,7,8).
After repenting whole-heartedly and pleading to Him to cleanse you with His precious blood`, you will have immense peace within yourself and the entire burden in your heart removed. Then, start praising the Lord, praise Him continuously. He might anoint you anytime of the day; either in the personal prayer, in your church or in an evangelical meeting. He knows the exact time. You have to keep your vessel always ready to receive His Spirit and welcome the God of Peace into your holy temple. “Do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit” (1Cor 6:19).
For some the anointing might be delayed, but He will definitely anoint everyone, who seeks Him diligently and prays according to His will. Pray that you want His Spirit to serve Him. He will bless you with His Spirit and the Gifts of the Spirit.
You will have strange experiences when the Holy Spirit touches you. You will feel the warmth of the Lord. Some might feel as though a block of ice is being placed and feeling of chillness going down the spine. Few will feel the body tremble and shiver; you may not be able to withstand the power and may even fall to the ground. He might touch your tongue and you will be blessed with the Gift of speaking in various tongues. You will be filled with immense joy. Some might even shed tears unknowingly. The experience for each one may be different. One can also have visions of The Lord Jesus Christ, when the spiritual eyes are opened and one can hear HIS sweet voice, when the spiritual ears are opened.
With the Lord in you, there is no sorrow, no sickness, no problems and no trouble. There is only joy: joy unlimited. You are His chosen vessel. He has been waiting to anoint you. It is time for you to receive His anointing. Receive the anointing of The Holy Spirit, be a perfect vessel for the All Perfect One.
“Let us search out and examine our ways, and turn back to the Lord. Let us lift our hearts and our hands to God in the Heaven” (Lam 3:40, 41).
Receive the anointing of the Holy Spirit and be blessed forever.
