THE HOLY GHOST; OUR ENABLER

“How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, and how he went around doing good and healing all who were under the power of the devil... Acts 10:38 (NIV)

      The Amplified rendering shows us a deeper truth in our text above. It says “how God anointed and consecrated Jesus of Nazareth with the [Holy] Spirit and with strength and ability and power; how He went about doing good and, in particular curing all who were harassed and oppressed by [the power] the devil, for God was with Him".
      Every of God’s children need to come to the realisation that resident in him is the Holy Ghost meaning that he has the dynamic ability to bring about a change in every situation. Another translation says “Then Jesus arrived from Nazareth anointed of God with the Holy Spirit, ready for action. He went through the country helping people and healing everyone who was beaten down by the devil. He was able to do all this because God was with Him”(MSG)

      The God child is not one who should be concerned with how he is going to achieve all God wants him to do. He is one that should be more concerned about the presence of the Holy Spirit in his life Little wonder Romans 8:11 tells us “but if the spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his spirit that dwelleth in you”. He is our treasure in earthen vessels. The Holy Ghost enables the child of God to will and to do of God’s good pleasure,(Philippians 2:13). You have the intrinsic ability to cause the biggest change in your environment and the world. Constantly stir up the gift of God that is in you and live in the realities of his enabling power.

DECLARATION:
I stir up the gift of God in me, I live in the realities of his enabling power. I cause changes in my world and give Glory to God.
