Filled: Anointing

In this powerful message, we're called to embrace the anointing of God in our lives. The central theme revolves around the concept of being 'filled' - not just with peace or glory, but with the anointing that comes from Christ himself. We're reminded that the very name 'Christ' means 'anointed one', emphasizing Jesus' role as our ultimate source of spiritual power. The message draws parallels between the Old Testament practice of anointing with oil and our modern spiritual lives, highlighting how we're set apart, empowered, and often under pressure when we're anointed by God. This pressure, interestingly, is portrayed as a means for the anointing to 'leak out' and impact those around us. As we navigate our daily lives, we're encouraged to seek this divine anointing, understanding that it may come with challenges, but also with the power to transform not just our lives, but the lives of those around us.
