THE HEART YOU CARRY WHILE IN SERVICE
Psalm 89: 20 (KJV); I have found David my servant; with my holy oil have I anointed him:
By the order of the Spirit, service to God precedes the anointing. This is why in our theme scripture, the Lord speaks of His servant David whom He has anointed with oil.
This means that when the heart of service is revealed, the anointing becomes available.
Some people seek anointing without understanding this order. They want to demonstrate the power of God, to heal the sick, make the lame to walk and cast out devils but their hearts are not hearts of servants.
If a man walks this path, any manifestation of power shall be for prestige and for his own personal honour.
It is the servant’s heart that makes healing the sick an act of compassion and not merely an opportunity to demonstrate how anointed the man is. It is the servant’s heart that makes winning souls an act of love and not merely a duty.
More than seeking to grow and increase in a certain anointing or grace, understand the servant’s heart that makes that anointing available because when you do, you will be invited into an even deeper grace in the same anointing. You will not merely heal, disease will sense your presence and leave men’s bodies. Like Christ, you will not merely cast out devils, they will see you and beg to flee
PRAYER: Loving Father, I thank You for this great truth. It is my desire to grow and increase in the anointing. Thank You for dealing with my heart and spirit, for opening me to the responsibility of service in the anointing, for taking me beyond privilege to stewardship. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
