THEME:
The Challenges Of The Anointed. I.
MEMORY VERSE:
“The same followed Paul and us, and cried, saying, These men are the servants of the most high God, which shew unto us the way of salvation.”
Acts 16:17.
TODAY’S TEXT:
Acts 16:23-24.
“And when they had laid many stripes upon them, they cast them into prison, charging the jailer to keep them safely: Who, having received such a charge, thrust them into the inner prison, and made their feet fast in the stocks.”
TODAY’S MESSAGE:
The truth remains that the anointed is empowered for service. Although one will feel that the grace, will not come with challenges, but the truth is that, no matter how anointed you are, you must drink from the cup allotted for that level of anointing.
Meanwhile, as we have in our memory verse, an evil spirit even acknowledge God’s grace upon Paul and Silas, and could speak of their mission in the city of Thyatira. Beloved, when you are empowered by grace, the forces around will acknowledge that you are not ordinary. Do know that your experience is not for fun, but to serve a purpose.
However, as anointed as Paul and Silas were, they could not escape humiliation, beating, chains and imprisonment. Don’t forget that at the end, all things will work together for your good. (Romans 8:28) And to the glory of God, that challenge launch them into another open door for souls.
In conclusion, what you need is to ask God for grace to be able to withstand the ministerial challenges as they come your way, to the glory of God and for the salvation of souls. In all, we must be respectful, as we hold on to Jesus. Surely, he is the only one to save and help us in tackling whatever challenges, anointing may bring along.
God bless you.
Till He returns or call you home, do remain in the power of His love.
*Jesus is coming very soon.*
Be prepared.
DAILY CONFESSION:
I receive grace, not faint in the face of life’s challenges.
PRAYER POINT:
Father of all Glory and Grace. Help me Lord, to fulfill my purpose in Christ Jesus. And whatever I need to do for the salvation of souls around me, may I cooperate with you in doing it in Jesus name. Amen.
Yours in Christ,
B. J. Folorunsho.
