Fresh Anointing

This devotion is based on preserving the anointing that God has bestowed upon us. This devotion is by my husband, LeeFrank Vazquez. Enjoy!


How to keep the anointing fresh? God was dealing with me about sharing this with the church this morning. So I decided I'd post this. He was first speaking to my life about this at a conference call last night with a few men of God. This was the topic spoken of and God began to give me word about it. 

Find who you are in God. How you reach God. How you tap into the heavenly gifts given to you. Some find it by separating themselves, clearing their mind and asking God for direction. (Meditate in the Lord) Moses, Elijah, Jesus and many more would tap into the Holy of Holies this way. When they would separate themselves God would reveal mysteries to them, whisper things in their ears. But there are those like David, Elisha, etc. who would sing praises, play instruments in worship to the living God. It is said when David praised God, His Holy Spirit (God's) would fall upon him.

Find out what it takes for you to feel God and the anointing over your life. Then, do these things before you pray, before you seek Him, and you will see an increase in your spiritual life. Because when you enter in His presence before speaking to Him, you leave the flesh behind and enter a new realm. Once you are in that realm, you will begin to see the miracles answered that you have been asking God. In Mathew 7:7 It says "ask and you shall receive, Knock and a door shall be open unto you." So we know God wants to answer, and He wants to heal your circumstance, but why is it that we do not receive what we ask for when God promises we will? Well James 4:3 says "When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures." God wants to give you your desires, but when you ask in the flesh, He knows that those things will not do you any good. You are trying to please yourself and pray for material things, when God wants you to be pleased in Him. When you are seeking and loving only Him, then He will give you those material things as a bonus. Luke 12:31 says: Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and He will give you everything you need.

You see? Let's put it this way: When you sacrifice the flesh at the brazen altar (where the high priest would make sacrifices in the tabernacle), all your selfish desires, AND truly repent, then you can enter the Holy of Holies. When you are in the Holy of Holies, you will reach unreachable heights, and you will see God. For the Bible teaches us that is where He Is. When you are with God, who can be against you? The anointing will just be over your life and it will stay fresh, because you used your gifts to reach God. When you have reached God, you realize: "I am unclean." When you have seen this, you sacrifice your flesh, and when you are in the spirit there is nothing that can stand between you and the anointing God has placed over you. God bless.
