MFM Mountain Top Life Devotional 1 December 2019 By Dr. D.K Olukoya – Anointing Makes The Difference
TOPIC: Anointing Makes The Difference
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Ezekiel 40-41; 2 Peter 3
FIRE SCRIPTURE: Luke 4:18-21
MEMORY VERSE: “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
MESSAGE: Anointing is the supernatural ability God gives His chosen vessels to accomplish heaven’s assignments committed into their hands. It is the power of God that makes the natural vessel supernatural and the ordinary do extraordinary things for God. It is the mark of God’s presence, heaven’s authority and backing on His vessel.
When Samuel anointed Saul of Kish over Israel, Saul became another man; he was ushered into the supernatural class. By the instrumentality of the anointing, David killed Goliath and went on to fight a total of 66 battles in his lifetime without losing one. The secret of David’s exploits as a warrior, prophet and king was the unusual anointing that was at work in his life. David was anointed three different times.
The anointing makes the difference. It sets winners apart from losers. The lives of Saul and David before they were anointed and after they were anointed bear eloquent testimony to the life-changing and destiny-transforming power of the anointing. You need the anointing to make the journey of your life fruitful and full of great results. Without the anointing, man will struggle so hard but will achieve so little. Without the anointing, the best efforts of many people will go unrewarded and frustration will set in. I pray that the Holy Spirit, the Custodian of the anointing, will anoint you today, in Jesus’ name.
Elijah, the Tishbite’s heavy duty anointing aided his pronouncement that closed the heaven for three and a half years. There was no rain or dew at his command. By the anointing, he challenged, defeated and destroyed the prophets of Baal on Mount Carmel. The anointing makes hard work easy and makes the impossible achievable. The anointing breaks all kinds of yokes.

Jesus was given the anointing without measure. That is why He could stand in all the five-fold ministry offices successfully (Apostle, Prophet, Pastor, Evangelist and Teacher). In Luke 4:18, He enumerated the reasons why God anointed Him and what His anointing was meant to accomplish in ministry. He did not use the anointing to seek His own glory but to seek the glory of the Father who sent Him. Beloved, you need the anointing. If you have it, you need to constantly ask for more and use it to the glory of God. When your motive for asking for the anointing or its increase is right, God will answer you and give you an exceedingly great anointing to do good works like Jesus.
There is anointing for doing secular and spiritual assignments. No matter what your profession is in the secular world or your assignment in ministry, ask God to give you the measure of anointing that will give you supernatural success. Ask for the anointing of ease, the anointing of dominion, the anointing of excellence, the anointing of favour, the anointing of invincibility as well as the anointing of preservation and protection. Ask for the anointing that breaks the yoke of limitation, failure, poverty and delay. Ask for the anointing that will move you forward, upward and to your next level. When you ask, you will receive!
MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE:
When the anointing of God is upon a person, it changes the individual from being a little ordinary person to being a giant.
PROPHETIC WORD:
THE ANOINTING OF GOD WILL POSITIVELY TRANSFORM YOUR LIFE AND MAKE YOU A BLESSING TO YOUR GENERATION.
PRAYER POINTS:

3 By the anointing of fire, I destroy the chains of limitation and delay in my life, in the name of Jesus.
EVENING
4 Father, give me the anointing to achieve supernatural success in my secular and spiritual assignments, in the name of Jesus.
