Thus says the Lord to his anointed, To Cyrus, whose right hand I have held- To subdue nations before him, And to loose the armor of kings, To open before him the double doors So that the gates will not be shut  -  Isaiah 45:1(KJV)

 

NEW DAWN

 We must understand that New Dawn connotes new things; experiencing a change of story from strength to strength, from glory to glory and our paths keep shinning brighter and brighter (Deuteronomy 33:25; 2 Corinthians 3:18). According to Scripture, by redemption we are members of the household of God. We are a new dawn family; that is, when we are saved, old things pass away and all things become new. As it is written: Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new (2 Corinthians 5:17). This means that when we are baptised unto Jesus, we are empowered to live and walk in the newness of life (Ephesians 2:19) and we become members of the household of the justified (Proverbs 4:18).

But, how do we position ourselves to unlock our New Dawn Heritage in Christ?

More often than not, a radio box has all the channels but we have to tune in to the right frequency to access any news. This implies that, before we can position ourselves to unlock our New Dawn Heritage in Christ, we must:

  • Be Desperate for an Encounter: Everything in the Kingdom delivers on our crave. Be desperate for an encounter into a world of new things that never cease and into a world of strange works and strange acts of God. For instance, the man Zacchaeus was desperate for an encounter with Jesus. Therefore, he climbed the tree and Jesus gave him an unforgettable encounter (Luke 19:1-10). Also, concerning Jacob the Bible records: The Lord sent a word into Jacob, and it hath lighted upon Israel (Isaiah 9:8). His encounter had an impact on a whole nation. Remember, no casual approach holds a future. Be desperate!
  • Be Spiritual: Only men of the Spirit hear from heaven. We cannot have an encounter with God through His Word without being in the Spirit. As it is written: I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet (Revelation 1:10). It is important that we come out of our carnality into the realm of the Spiritual to unlock our New Dawn Heritage in Christ. The Bible says: After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter (Revelation 4:1).
  • Be Sensitive: Elisha was a highly sensitive man! He desired a double portion of the spirit of his master Elijah and this required that he saw Elijah when he was being taken up and he got it! (2 Kings 2:9-10). Every moment spent with God is important. Thus, we need to be watchful enough to catch our own Word when it comes. Be sensitive!
  • Maintain a Quiet Spirit: We need to maintain a quiet Spirit to have encounters with God. We can maintain a quiet spirit in a congregation and be noisy in a private place (1 Kings 19:11-13). We need to be disciplined concerning our telephones and various communications channels. As it is written: But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price (1 Peter 3:4).Do you desire an encounter with God? Then maintain a quiet spirit.
  • Be Joyful: It takes joy to encounter the Word. It takes a joyful heart to connect with the joyful sound from heaven (Psalm 89:15). For instance, Jesus always knew what to do because He was joyful. It is written in Luke 10:21:In that hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes: even so, Father; for so it seemed good in thy sight. Paul was another man that was operating with abundance of revelation because of joy. He was a man of unusual depth. Concerning him, the Bible records that he enjoins believers: Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice (Philippians 4:4; see also 1 Thessalonians 5:16).
  • Walk in the Fear of God: The fear of God gives us unlimited access into the deep things of God. So, the more of the fear of God we embrace; the deeper our insight into the secrets of God and the Word of life. Because: The secret of the Lord is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant (Psalm 25:14; see also Job 1:8; Genesis 42:18).

 

 

 

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.

Isaiah 10: 27 (KJV)

 

ANOINTING

 The Dictionary meaning of Anointing is "to smear or rub with oil, typically as a sign of consecration or sanctification in a religious/sacred ceremony."

  • An individual or object set apart for divine use is said to be "anointed".
  • When people were anointed, God empowered them to accomplish His tasks.
  • No one was allowed to harm God's anointed.

Anointing expresses the sanctifying influences of the Holy Spirit upon Christians who are Priests and Kings unto God. Anointing with oil was a common Biblical practice that continues today. In the Bible, people, places and things were anointed with Holy Oil. Spiritually, Anointing oil represents blessing, protection and empowerment. Anointing oils also can be a symbol of our faith in Christ to answer our prayers through divine intervention.
