2 Timothy 1:6-For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands.
In the Old Testament, the Bible records how the power of God came mightily upon certain men and women, causing them to do supernatural things. Samson, for example, killed a lion with his bare hands (Judges 14:5-6), and killed one thousand men with the jawbone of an ass (Judges 15:15-16).He also carried the gate of a city on his shoulders up a hill! (Judges 16:3).When you study the life of Samson thoroughly, you'd know the role he played in activating the anointing of God's Spirit that was upon him. After he was betrayed by Delilah and his hair was shaved, the Bible says he "awoke out of his sleep, and said, I will go out as at other times before, and shake myself (Judges 16:20).
He knew exactly what to do to activate the power of God-it happened wherever he shook himself! 1 John 2:27 says, "....the anointing which ye have received of him abides in you", The anointing-the power of God-is in your spirit, but that power wouldn't work just because it's there. This is why you need to know the things that'll stir up the anointing in your life. One sure way to activate the power of God that's in you is by speaking in other tongues. The Bible says, "He that speaks in a unknown tongue edifies himself"(1 Cor 14:4). In other words, he "Charges" himself up like a battery! When that anointing is triggered, anything is possible.
Don't be content to live an ordinary life; trigger the anointing everyday!
Speaking in the Holy Spirit downloads every spiritual information for the day! Start shaking yourself in the spirit now! Shake some things off and stir some things up in your spirit!
Confession
I am anointed and full of the power of the Holy Ghost. I live a supernatural life every day, as I stir up the gift of God which is in me. I cannot be defeated or destroyed, for the anointing in me has made me more than a man, in the Name of Jesus. Amen!
