YOU HAVE AN ANOINTING

SCRIPTURE READING: 1 John 2

"But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you know all things." 1 John 2:20

The word, 'anointing' used in this verse refers to the presence of the Holy Spirit. The phrase, 'Holy One' refers to Jesus Christ. The Holy Spirit comes from the Holy One. That means the anointing cannot oppose Christ or do things that Christ would not do. This is the litmus test to discern claims from anyone as being anointed by God and representing Him. If their teaching and behaviour does not align with Christ's, their anointing is not from God.

John warned believers about falling prey to the deception of the Antichrist. He reminded them that the anointing in the believer does not come from the believer. The anointing in the believer comes from Christ.

- The Holy Spirit is our teacher. John ascribed a teaching role to the Holy Spirit. His work is to ensure that we are guided into God's truth. The presence of the Holy Spirit within every believer enables him or her to know the truth of the gospel. As a result, we cannot come up with any teaching whatsoever and claim it as coming from the 'anointing'. If it is truly of the Holy Spirit, it must truly be in line with what Christ taught and exemplified.

- The Holy Spirit teaches us all things. The Holy Spirit teaches us everything we need to know to live lives that honour Christ. His instruction to us extends to all areas of our lives, including relationships, finances and our careers. We cannot limit the Holy Spirit's instruction to matters of the spirit alone.

We must embrace the Holy Spirit's guidance in every aspect of our lives. He is willing to teach us all things. We only need to be willing to hear and follow.

May our spirits be subject to the Spirit of Christ at all times.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, I receive the Holy Spirit as my teacher. Instruct me in all areas of my life. In Jesus' name, Amen.

A SEASON OF FAVOUR

SCRIPTURE READING Exodus 11

"And the Lord gave the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians. Moreover the man Moses was very great in the land of Egypt, in the sight of Pharaoh's servants and in the sight of the people." Exodus 11:3

God had promised Abraham that his descendants would leave Egypt 'with great substance' (Gen. 15:14), and He repeated that promise to Moses at the beginning of his mission. God faithfully honoured this promise in due time. He delivered Israel from Egypt with much wealth.

God is concerned about our holistic wellbeing. He takes as much interest in our material well-being as He does in our spiritual well-being. When He saves us, He makes us a part of His household, blesses us and prospers us.

• Moses was very great in the land. To fulfill His promise, the Lord gave Moses great respect among the Egyptians. He was so revered by the Egyptians that they would do whatever he commanded them to do.

By the time of the last plague, God had elevated Moses before the general population of Egypt. Anyone with an ounce of sense among the Egyptians had long since realized that resistance to the Israelites' God, Yahweh, was useless.

• The Lord gave the people favour. That favour which Moses had in Egypt was now shared by the rest of the Hebrews.

The consensus among the Egyptians was that the Israelites were entitled to leave Egypt and that their God had shown Himself fully capable of ruining Egypt to free His own. The only person who could not yet see this was Pharaoh.

God influenced the attitude of the Egyptians toward the Israelites. His plan of deliverance also included a plan for financial provision. The Lord also had a plan to build a place of worship where He would meet with His people. To provide for all of that He supernaturally influenced the Egyptians to give their valuables to the Hebrews.

May God's favour rest on you and may your righteous demands be honoured.

PRAYER
Heavenly Father, give me favour wherever I go. Cause people to deal generously with me. In Jesus' name, Amen.

IT'S PAYBACK TIME

SCRIPTURE READING: Exodus 11

"Speak now in the hearing of the people, and let every man ask from his neighbor and every woman from her neighbor, articles of silver and articles of gold." Exodus 11:2-3

Moses told the Jewish people that the time had come for them to collect their unpaid wages for all the work they and their ancestors had done as slaves in Egypt. For 430 years, Israel's labour had built Egypt without fair remuneration. Israel had now come to the point of their compensation.

- Speak to the hearing of the people. This was an instruction from God to the Hebrews. By this time, the Jews had a sense that God was going to deliver them. They had watched the progression of the plagues and felt confident that Jehovah was the Almighty God. At the beginning, the Hebrews had been unsure of the Lord and Moses, His messenger. After seeing the demonstration of God's power, they believed that their deliverance was near. It was the assurance they needed.

- Ask from your neighbours. The Lord instructed His people to go and make demands for silver and gold. The silver and gold represented the wealth that the Hebrews and their ancestors had created for Egypt. The Lord was now showing His people how to reclaim what they had rightfully earned.

The Jews didn't intend to return what the Egyptians gave them, for that wealth was payment for an outstanding debt that Egypt owed Israel.

There was a time of restoration for God's people. After what appeared to be years of hard work without just compensation, God turned Israel's situation around. That same God is the one we worship. He will give you just compensation for your years of faithful service.

Wherever you have been cheated and mistreated, God will bring you restoration.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, you are a God of justice. Today, I request that the wages I have earned will be paid to me. In Jesus' name, Amen.

A DIFFERENT PLAGUE

SCRIPTURE READING Exodus 11

"And the Lord said to Moses, 'I will bring one more plague on Pharaoh and on Egypt. Afterward he will let you go from here. When he lets you go, he will surely drive you out of here altogether.'" Exodus 11:1

God is merciful, gracious, and patient. That is part of His essential nature. He is also a God of wrath and judgment. When we abuse the opportunities He gives us out of His mercy and grace, we will face His wrath and judgment. There is an end to God's patience.

Pharaoh and Egypt did not avail themselves of God's grace and mercy. People can harden their hearts and become so stiff-necked against the Lord and go beyond the point of ever repenting. When we reach that point, we expose ourselves to God's wrath.

- I will bring one more plague. This plague was going to be far more devastating than all the earlier ones. God knew Pharaoh's heart and his people's hearts had reached the point of never repenting or yielding to Him.

The tenth plague was to bring far more than just grief upon the Egyptians. The plague would be launched as a blow of God's own hand against all the might of Egypt.

- He will surely drive you out. This one final plague would cause the king of Egypt and his officials to beg God's people to leave Egypt. The intensity of this plague was designed to force the hand of Pharaoh to do what his heart was not willing to do.

This encounter offers lessons. God's mercy and grace must lead us to repentance. If we do not repent, we place ourselves under God's judgment.

It is better to receive God's warning and instruction than to wait for His judgment.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, help me not to take your patience for granted. I receive your warning and instructions. In Jesus' name, Amen.

NO MORE NEGOTIATION

SCRIPTURE READING Exodus 10

"Then Pharaoh said to him, 'Get away from me! Take heed to yourself and see my face no more! For in the day you see my face you shall die!' So Moses said, 'You have spoken well. I will never see your face again.'" Exodus 10:28-29

Pharaoh ended the negotiations with Moses. He signaled that nothing had changed from his initial position. He remained where he had stood from day one. He would not voluntarily allow the Israelites to leave his land. Despite the pressure on him from his people and his court advisors, and despite the mounting severity of the plagues, he could not bring himself to grant the demands of Israel's God. Pharaoh addressed Moses with a threat containing three clauses:

- Get away from me. We can imagine the vehemence with which Pharaoh uttered those words. He might have spoken with unmistakable finality.

- See my face no more. He did not want to meet Moses again. The negotiations were over, and the case was closed, as far as he was concerned. There would be no further discussions.

- The day you see me, you shall die. This was a direct threat to Moses. It signaled the end of all goodwill. It was not a modest threat, but one underscored with the strongest possible warning: Moses would be put to death if he came back again.

It is important to note that Pharaoh was the one who ended the negotiation, not God. The consequences were, therefore, Pharaoh's.

Moses' reply could be translated as follows: 'You've said the very thing! I will not keep seeing your face!' The force of his reply, in other words, was to tell Pharaoh that Pharaoh himself had essentially predicted the future.

In his anger, Pharaoh predicted his own doom. He spoke words that would destroy him and his people. Sadly, sometimes we allow our stubbornness to lead us into self-destruction. Sometimes parents allow their stubbornness to destroy their relationship with their children, and vice versa. Couples do the same and ruin relationships that could be redeemed. Business partners allow their pride to derail their enterprises.

May the Lord help us not to be like Pharaoh.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, deliver me from self-destruction resulting from my self-will and stubbornness. In Jesus' name, Amen.
