3. To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God:
4. And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me.
5. For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.
6. When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?
7. And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.
8. But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.
MEMORISE
Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk.
Acts 3:6
Open Heaven for Teens 23rd December 2022 MESSAGE
I usually tell my pastors that the anointing is to be desired more than anything else. The anointing breaks the yoke. Anointing in the life of any believer makes the difference. In our Bible text for today, Jesus promised the disciples that the Holy Spirit would come and when He did, there would be anointing.
No wonder Peter and John could boldly tell the lame man at the Beautiful Gate that they had no silver or gold because what they carried was worth more than money.The anointing is more than any worldly possession. No wonder Elisha waited until his master, Elijah was carried away in a chariot of fire so that he could receive the double portion of his anointing (2 Kings 2:1-15 ), unlike Gehazi who preferred worldly possessions and inherited leprosy (2 Kings 5:26-27 ).
You are not too young to desire the anointing. For you to receive the anointing, you must be holy, then wait on God just like the disciples did. Believe me, exploits for God become easy when you are anointed.
PRAYER POINT
Father, please pour Your anointing upon me today.
