The Lord put together and put us forward serving Him
Amos 9:13-15 MSG
“Yes indeed, it won’t be long now.” God’s Decree.
Things are going to HAPPEN SO FAST our heads will swim, one thing fast on the heels of the other.
We won’t be able to keep up. EVERYTHING will be HAPPENING at ONCE —and everywhere we look, BLESSINGS ! Blessings like wine pouring off the mountains and hills.
GOD'LL make everything right again for His children in Beauty For Ashes Ministry:
“We'll rebuild our ruined cities.
We'll plant vineyards and drink good wine.
We'll work our gardens and eat fresh vegetables.
And GOD'LL PLANT US , plant us on our OWN LAND .
We'll NEVER AGAIN BE UPROOTED from the LAND GOD HAS GIVEN US.
GOD , our GOD , SAYS SO .
Our Lord saw the future
The future is good. The future is great!
God can never has anything that is less than wonderful for His children
We have a marvellous guide in the realm of His spirit
Holy Spirit hold us
We just don’t need to be afraid
There is no such thing as fear
As we serve the Lord don’t worry about we forget this or that.
Relax everyone as you serve Him
There is liberty. There is no fear. Perfect love cast out fear
He sees us in the righteousness of Christ
Is like a beautiful robe with white garment. Our faces are all shinning in His glory
We are in Christ
That is the most wonderful thing to Him
That is the beauty of Christ
The anointing of Jesus onto the ministry
The oil of joy for mourning
This is what Jesus came to do
The anointing oil
Jesus is in everyone of us
Isaiah 61:3
To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion,
to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning,
the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness;
that they might be called trees of righteousness,
the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified.
Jesus come to set us free and we can truly rejoice in the Lord
The most powerful truth in the gospel is in the power of God unto salvation
In the good news there is something so powerful
Is we becoming the righteousness of God in Christ
Jesus the Son of God without sin came and died for us. Therefore He is able to give us this righteousness
Today He gives us the same standing as Jesus
He turned our ashes into beauty. We feel we are not good enough.
The garment of praise
The trees of righteousness
The planting of the Lord
Firmly planted rooted in His love
In His love, nothing can touch us. Nothing and not even ourselves can pluck us out of the love of Jesus
We grow to know Him more and more and there is less of us and more of Him
When we see Jesus in His glory and beauty, we know there is nothing of us.
Jesus, it takes eternity to know Him. So many aspects of Jesus. So beautiful that we will worship Him and adore Him
The anointing of Joy.
Oil is not like water. Oil is valuable
Oil - Shemen
Fat, fatness, medicament or unguent for anointing
Joy -> Cheerfulness, gladness, mirth, rejoicing
Is not the joy that depends on things to happen
This joy is from our spirit man. It is inexpressible
We cannot fake it.
The first gift to humanity, God gave Jesus
Hebrew 12, Jesus for the joy that was set before Him, He went to the cross.
The joy that was set before Him to see you and me been born again. To be able to enjoy the new heaven, the new earth.
In His heart there was a joy He was experiencing. The joy of seeing us becoming new creation.
We are all brothers and sisters in the Lord
When God created Adam and Eve, He knew he will sin and fall. Yet God already prepared for our redemption
The new creation is more beautiful and wonderful than the first Adam
God is redeeming time for us
There is still so much more to give and love
Come to Me and i will give you rest
Mourning -> for the dead
Lamentation - sorrow for someone’s death
What is death
Therefore if anyone is in Christ He is a new creation. Everything of the past has died.
The past is gone for the new creation
All the past, there is no need to mourn for the past. You cannot change it.
All these has passed away.
In the new creation, everything is new!
Rejoice always. Always is always
God will turn everything into good in our lives
Death is change of address. In Christ we will be reunited again
It is not a full separation
Anything that is dead, turn into green. New life, new beginnings
Main thing is the new creation. The old things have passed away.
God does not want us to regret anything in Christ.
The pass is gone. Wash all the ashes that cling to you. Jesus has taken away all. The power of His blood has removed all and He anoints us.
Isaiah 16:3
Take counsel, execute judgment;
make thy shadow as the night in the midst of the noonday;
hide the outcasts; bewray not him that wandereth.
God chose young shepherd boy David who has the shepherd heart
Whatever your past, don’t worry. God did not forget about you.
Our heavenly Father will not forget us
Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brethren; and the Spirit of the Lord came upon David from that day forward...
The people see Jesus. Christ in us, the hope of glory
This is he whom God has chosen.
As you do the simple faithfulness for God, it could be the simplest or the smallest thing, God has called you
It all starts with the anointing of oil
The prophet poured over Samuel’s head to start the ministry
We are anointed royalty. We are sons and daughters
Whatever that is broken and messed up
Beauty of the crown, Jesus put this crown on us. The kingship anointing. He has anointed us
From there we can minister to the world
We will be able to share to this lost world who lost sight of the kingdom of God
The jews wanted a physical kingdom
Jesus came as a baby first. He came from another kingdom. He came to put back the spiritual kingdom first
To see there is a spiritual realm
The word of God began to unfold and reveal
He lives in the kingdom of God
The Holy Spirit comes upon us will never leave us
Jesus sent the Holy Spirit
The dispersion of the Holy Spirit
When we are all caught up, the Holy Spirit will be up with us
Holy Spirit is not limited by time or space
As you hear the Word of God, the person wants to receive Jesus
We will no longer be in the bondage of sin
Holy Spirit is the same like Jesus
Holy Spirit is inside us and will never leave us. It is sealed.
Holy Spirit is a Person
In us and always talking to us.
He is with us in the living Word
Men can leave us but Jesus never
Psalms 23:5
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies:
thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Anointing the head with oil
Anointest - become prosperous, anoint, good food
To find fat
To take away ashes
Anoint also remove ashes
Deshen -> fertility
3 meanings of Deshen are
Oil (food)
Ashes
Fertiliser
Fertilizer is a material used as food to help with the essential growth of plants, ie to give nourishment and life to the plant.
So instead of putting ashes of mourning, a symbol of death, David acknowledges that the Lord has “fertilized” his head; God has given him the nourishment for growth in his life’s calling, for that which he has anointed!
He is nourishing king David for his life calling
God is going to provide for us. We will never lack
He has already provided. We will never lack
Abundance. We will have abundance. Wait for God to do. Don’t stress
A king is never poor
King is rulership
He will provide everything
We are all called.
A lot of people feel not worthy to serve the Lord. All these are lies.
The moment you received the Lord, there is set apart
Some called into the limelight. Some called to serve behind the scene.
Anointing is to fertilise our head for our future
Everyone has a calling. Is the timing. The Lord has already anointed you.
Isaiah 10:27
And it shall come to pass in that day,
that his burden shall be taken away from off thy shoulder,
and his yoke from off thy neck,
and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing.
This anointing destroy the yoke
Whatever that is a burden to you in your life, this yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing.
Those things that bind us, the moment we receive the anointing, we are totally destroyed
Luke 7:36-37 TPT
Afterward Simeon, a Jewish religious leader, asked Jesus to his home for dinner. Jesus accepted the invitation. When he went to Simeon’s home, he took his place at the table.
In the neighborhood there was an immoral woman of the streets, known to all to be a prostitute. When she heard that Jesus was at Simeon’s house, she took an exquisite flask made from alabaster, filled it with the most expensive perfume, went right into the home of the Jewish religious leader, and in front of all the guests, she knelt at the feet of Jesus.
Luke 7:38 TPT
Broken and weeping, she covered his feet with the tears that fell from her face. She kept crying and drying his feet with her long hair. Over and over she kissed Jesus’ feet. Then, as an act of worship, she opened her flask and anointed his feet with her costly perfume.
Luke 7:40 TPT
Jesus said, “Simeon, I have a word for you.” “Go ahead, Teacher. I want to hear it,” he answered
In the last days many can be deceived.
Luke 7:43-44 TPT
43 Simeon answered, “I suppose it would be the one with the greater debt forgiven.”
“You’re right,” Jesus agreed. 44 Then he spoke to Simeon about the woman still weeping at his feet.
“Do you see this woman kneeling here? She is doing for me what you didn’t bother to do. When I entered your home as your guest, you didn’t think about offering me water to wash the dust off my feet. Yet she came into your home and washed my feet with her many tears and then dried my feet with her hair.
Luke 7:47
Therefore I say to you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much. But to whom little is forgiven, the same loves little.”
Luke 4:47 TPT
She has been forgiven of all her many sins. This is why she has shown me such extravagant love. But those who assume they have very little to be forgiven will love me very little.”
According to what we think He has forgiven us, is according to how much we love Him
Luke 7:48-50 TPT
Then Jesus said to the woman at his feet, “All your sins are forgiven.”
49 All the dinner guests said among themselves, “Who is the one who can even forgive sins?”
50 Then Jesus said to the woman, “Your faith in me has given you life. Now you may leave and walk in the ways of peace.”
Luke 7:50
Then He said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you. Go in peace.”
Sin is missing the mark
God is so just that He don’t even allow that one black dot
That few dots cannot bring us to heaven.
That is why Jesus, 100% pure, came down to die for us
The meaning of sin is not about big or small sin
The good we don’t deserve, He gives us
When we go into more understanding, the vastness and the depth.
No one can understand the depth of His love
Who are we to judge another one when God don’t judge us.
Peace
Rest, set at one again
We are now made whole
Join back and made whole
Matthew 16:16
And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.
CHRIST = Anointed One
Christ the Messiah, the Son of God
Today this anointing is Christ. It is not just the physical oil
The oil symbolise the power
He is now the anointing
In Christ we can do all things
Means in the anointing i can do all things
In Christ i have no fear
God came down and touch us
When someone has Jesus, have Christ the anointed one in our heart
In the name of Jesus i am healed!
Christ has healed us
Holy Spirit hears the name of Jesus and healing manifest in our bodies
That anointing of Christ flows inside us
Holy Spirit brings anointing inside. Continue to be filled with the holy spirit
1 John 3:8
He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil.
Son of God MANIFESTED
DESTROY the WORKS of the devil
Jesus in us through the Holy Spirit destroys the works of the devil
1 Peter 1:8
Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory:
We don’t love God by law.
REJOICE with JOY UNSPEAKABLE
and full of GLORY
Romans 14:17
for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.
Realm of God -
HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS and PEACE and JOY in the HOLY SPIRIT
Seek first the kingdom of God
You will do it when you understand how much God loves us
Permanent healing. Not just for a while
Oil of joy
Taking away the mourning
Without the shame of your past, this is the righteousness, the kingdom of God
Manifestation from spiritual realm to physical realm. Experience the kingdom of God as your reality
Pastor Stephanie went to a meeting where the Minister preached and everywhere people were laughing. He has the laughing anointing. On the last night (out of 3 nights), she prayed for God to touch her.
This minister pray for all Malaysian pastors to go forward to receive.
The minister tapped on all their heads and she was one of them and fell to the floor.
She heard someone laughed than she realised is herself!
She kept on laughing and laughing for 20 mins. She felt something has happened inside her.
She felt the pipe inside her was all stuck. Now her spirit is more open to the anointing.
Out of your belly will flow the rivers of living water!
She used to be very timid but now she can laugh and speak boldly.
The oil of joy came into her life, from that day she can laughed from inside.
She was set free!
Anointing is a touch.
Oil is a layer of protection
It is manifested. Not just in the head. You will feel the power that release the freedom
Vision of the anointing oil poured out
Christ inside us and the tangible anointing of the Holy Spirit
Allow the anointing of the holy spirit to flow out to destroy the yoke and bring the healing
You have peace and joy inside. Is not from your head. Is from your heart.
