When Ordinary Days Become an Adventure
Talk about a marvelous way to live! When you realize Jesus’ own Anointing to preach and minister the power of God to people is in you and on you, life becomes an adventure. Ordinary days become extraordinary and you become a BLESSING wherever you go.
You wind up doing things like I did not long ago when I was walking through the lobby of a hospital. I was passing through the area where people were checking in for surgery and, noticing a woman in a wheelchair with an oxygen tank beside it, I sensed a prompting of The LORD to pray for her.
Standing there with her was a younger woman I supposed was her daughter. I asked them both if it would be all right for me to pray, and they said, “Oh, yes!” The lady filling out the hospital paperwork overheard us, so she bowed her head and started praying too. Then the woman in the booth next to her came over. We all prayed together and had a nice time.
When we finished, the woman in the wheelchair said, “Oh, glory to God! Thank you, Brother Copeland!” (I didn’t realize until she said my name that she knew me.) Then she added, “Just this morning the Lord told me to pray for and lay hands on another lady I know that needs healing. I sowed that prayer as a faith seed and I just got my return. Thank you very much!”
I’d had no idea that’s what The LORD was doing. Sometimes you won’t have any idea what He’s up to either. But that’s OK. Just obey The LORD, be a witness, and do whatever He tells you. Be constantly expecting Him to minister to people through you simply because you’ve been baptized in the Holy Spirit and you’re a member of the Body of Christ.
The Body of Christ is the Body of the Anointed One and His Anointing! As part of that Body, you have the same anointing on you that’s on Jesus. It was poured over you when you were baptized in the Holy Spirit.
You’re anointed to speak Jesus’ words and preach His message. You’re anointed to go about doing good, and healing those who are oppressed of the devil. To carry on Jesus’ ministry and proclaim the good news about “peace through Jesus Christ” so that people around you can hear, believe and experience for themselves the fulfillment of Isaiah 10:27.
“It shall come to pass in that day, that [the devil’s] 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.”
Jesus didn’t just break the devil’s yoke, He destroyed it. The Anointing of God on Him is so powerful it demolished the devil’s yoke beyond repair, to the point where it’s not fit for the devil’s use anymore.
Now that anointing is in and upon you. So, stir it up. Be ready to preach and minister to anyone, anywhere, anytime…and live the adventure! V
