Nuggets on Righteousness 4

The same way we had to make a choice to accept The Lord as a Savior, we have to accept God’s righteousness by faith. We should seek his righteousness and thirst for more of it so that we can be filled. As a believer we live by faith everything we will receive from God is also by faith. Our righteousness is a gift from God and once we receive the gift and that revelation we will not be bothered by the devil when we fall short or find ourselves living below our expectations of ourselves. When we fall short, all we need do is repent and get back on track in faith not stay down in pity party or withdrawing from God. We did not do anything to qualify to be righteous, our qualifier is God and once we accept him in our lives, he gives us in return a right standing with Him: ‘Righteousness’.

Nuggets on Understanding the Anointing of God 8: Activating the anointing

I love the  month of giving and receiving ‘December’ because everyone  and the corporate business focus on giving during this month more than any  other month. Giving and loving are some of the things that  activate the anointing to flow freely and abundantly though us and in and around us. Love is the greatest force that activates the anointing upon our lives because love is God  and God is love.

God loves to see the anointing operate daily in our lives  that is why He gave us the gifts. The part I love the most is, what we need to do in order to activate the anointing is much more easier to do and is  less stressful  than  those things that we do that  hinder the anointing from flowing around us. Enjoy the continuation of these nuggets and how to activate the anointing.

 1.'Lack of use of the anointing brings decrease and decay'.  Therefore the first thing to do to activate in order to activate the anointing is , you have to use what you have been given. The anointing in us is not for us but   for others, so we must not be selfish in using it. Active use increases our maturity in God , in the things of God  and it  increases the anointing in and around us.

2.Walking in love is the most potent way to activate the anointing within us. Whenever we walk in love we are walking like Our Father and we are imitating him so we have no choice than to walk in his fullness. The devil understands and knows this and that is why he always attacks us in our love walk with one another. As we give love to others, we receive love in return.

1.Walk in Love

Ephesians5:1-11Therefore be imitators of God as dear children. ² And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma.

³ But fornication and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not even be named among you, as is fitting for saints; ⁴ neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor coarse jesting, which are not fitting, but rather giving of thanks.

3 Walk in Light

Walking as Children of Light is the next way to activate the anointing. Light  shines and the darkness cannot comprehend it. Doing the right thing even when it hurts and when we will not be rewarded   is walking in the light  in the  dark world we live in.

⁸ For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light .⁹ (for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth), ¹⁰ finding out what is acceptable to the Lord. ¹¹ And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them.

4.  Living a life of obedience to the Word of God and The Holy Spirit promptings within us increases and activates the anointing in around us .The devil knows this and  that is why he always love to attack us with unbelief in our minds, attacks us  in our love walk and light walk with others . This is why he is the master planner behind every offence and feuds with our loved ones. This is one of his weapons that he uses against us, so it is in our interest to protect our anointing and keep walking in love and light no matter what people do to us. We need to be totally dedicated to God and the things of God, seek peace, unity with others and commit to walking in love and forgiveness. This beats the devil hands down big time.

Walking in Love and walking in Light is walking like our Father, God who is love and Light therefore Love and light activates the anointing of God in us.

Nuggets on Understanding the Anointing of God 7: Hindrances to the Anointing4:

Enjoy the next set of things that hinders the flow of the anointing from flowing in and around us at it should .Also check out  those things to do to increase the flow of the anointing and what to do to protect the Anointing in and out..

 Phil 2:12-13Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed—not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence—continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling, ¹³ for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose.

God wants to work through us but we have to do our own part because he has given us the free will to make choices.

The anointing flows in an atmosphere/lifestyle  of joy ,praise and worship.The lack of craving  for intimacy with God on daily basis and lack of continous   fellowship with the Holy Spirit is the last major hindrance that affects the flow of the anointing in and around us.

Ps 73; 25-26Whom have I in heaven but you?
    And earth has nothing I desire besides you.
²⁶ My flesh and my heart may fail,
    but God is the strength of my heart
    and my portion forever.

Ps 61:1-2 hear my cry, O God;
    listen to my prayer.

² From the ends of the earth I call to you,
    I call as my heart grows faint;
    lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

Ps 63;1You, God, are my God,
    earnestly I seek you;
I thirst for you,
    my whole being longs for you,
in a dry and parched land
    where there is no water.

 John7;37-38 On the last and greatest day of the festival, Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, “Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink. ³⁸ Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them.”³⁹ by this he meant the Spirit, whom those who believed in him were later to receive. Up to that time the Spirit had not been given, since Jesus had not yet been glorified.

Whenever we spend time in worship and praise, the anointing will flow freely and abundantly in and through us. When we ask for more of Him, He fills us with more of Him, let’s approach him with an empty cup and He will fill our cups. This must be part of our daily routine because the anointing loves fellowship.

2 Corinthians 13;14The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with you all. Amen

Nuggets on Understanding the Anointing of God Part 6: Hindrances to the Anointing3:

Midweek   Blessings to you all, I hope y'alll enjoying the best of times and seasons despite the pandemic. God is with us all no matter where we are or what may be happening around us for God is love and  Love is God..

Romans 8:28 All things work together for good to those that love God. Check out personal hindrances you need to beware of so as to continue to enjoy the flow of the anointing .

These are the next set of   hindrances to the flow of the anointing;

5. Not   speaking and walking in the Truth in God’s Word.

Ephesians 4:14-27Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of people in their deceitful scheming. ¹⁵ Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ. ¹⁶ From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.¹⁷ so I tell you this, and insist on it in the Lord, that you must no longer live as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their thinking. ¹⁸ They are darkened in their understanding and separated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them due to the hardening of their hearts. ¹⁹ Having lost all sensitivity, they have given themselves over to sensuality so as to indulge in every kind of impurity, and they are full of greed²⁰ That, however, is not the way of life you learned ²¹ when you heard about Christ and were taught in him in accordance with the truth that is in Jesus. ²² You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; ²³ to be made new in the attitude of your minds; ²⁴ and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.

²⁵ Therefore each of you must put off falsehood and speak truthfully to your neighbor, for we are all members of one body.²⁶ “In your anger do not sin”^. Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry, ²⁷ and do not give the devil a foothold.

6. Focusing on the law or the letters rather than the Grace and The Spirit of God.

We need to depend on God’s Grace and His Spirit rather than depending on our flesh and inadequacies. God’s strength is made perfect when we are weak.

 2 Cor; 4-6 such confidence we have through Christ before God. ⁵ Not that we are competent in ourselves to claim anything for ourselves, but our competence comes from God. ⁶ He has made us competent as ministers of a new covenant—not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.

7. Lack of prayers and fasting, lack of studying the word and lack of using our spiritual weapons and amours.

In the physical armies know when they need to  refuel and they  make sure that they are properly armed same goes for us as Christians, once we give our lives to Christ we are automatically drafted into God’s army. God knows we need to be armed so he has equipped us with all we need but we need to use them or else we will become weak and easy targets for the enemy. The devil is always looking for whom to devour so we need to be vigilant and prayerful.

Ephesians 6:10-18Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. ¹¹ Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. ¹² For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. ¹³ Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. ¹⁴ Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, ¹⁵ and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. ¹⁶ In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. ¹⁷ Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

¹⁸ And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for the entire Lord’s people.
