You already have the anointing - now take care of it!
Dr. Roberto Miranda(Audio: Spanish)
SUMMARY:
In this sermon, the pastor discusses the importance of maintaining the anointing of the Holy Spirit in one's life. He compares the lives of King Saul and King David, noting that Saul lost the anointing because he did not submit his character to God and maintain the anointing, while David was able to maintain it. The pastor emphasizes the importance of studying the word of God and submitting one's life to the Lord in order to maintain the anointing, as well as being sober and vigilant to not give the devil any foothold. He encourages the congregation to use symbols in their lives to manifest the internal life of God and to appropriate things that remind them of the covenants they have made with God.
The sermon is based on First Samuel, chapter 16, where God sends Samuel to anoint David as the chosen one. The pastor emphasizes that God operates through processes that he has determined, and God sticks to these processes. He also explains that the anointing of the Holy Spirit is not just a matter of receiving Jesus Christ, but it is a special moment that can be received individually or in community. The pastor also stresses the importance of holiness and obedience to the Lord. He explains that the anointing of God can be for better or for worse, depending on the quality of one's heart. The pastor also talks about the Holy Spirit as the great equalizer, who takes the weak and fills them with his anointing, enabling them to compete effectively for the tasks of life. Finally, he encourages young people to humble themselves and receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit.
The anointing of God is a reserve of power that can be managed in times of need. When someone receives the baptism of the Holy Spirit, a potentiality is released in them for all of God's purposes in their life. However, it is up to the individual to use the anointing of God to unleash the endowments of power and gifts that God has for their life. This process may take time and effort, but God will conspire to lead the individual to their destiny. When the Spirit of God is upon someone, all circumstances align to lead them to their destiny if they stay in divine purposes. The story of David and Goliath shows that with the power of the Holy Spirit, one can take down giants in their life. Believing in the power of the Holy Spirit can lead to great miracles in one's life.
The speaker believes in great miracles from God and encourages listeners to receive the anointing of the Holy Spirit in their lives. They emphasize the importance of hunger and thirst for the power of the Holy Spirit and taking the word of God seriously. The speaker prays for God to anoint and fill listeners with his Holy Spirit and ends with a call to live victorious lives in the Lord.Today you are going to receive a bonus, say glory to God. Because I'm going to preach to you a sermon that I'm probably not going to preach at the 12 service, but all geared towards the same theme of the baptism of the Holy Spirit and I hope to enrich your life through this particular meditation.
You will remember that last Sunday I told you about a biblical character, King Saul, remember? Or have they already forgotten? King Saul and we saw there the life of a man from the old testament, how he embodies the baptism of the Holy Spirit, right? And from that experience of King Saul before he became king, we drew some patterns about the baptism of the Holy Spirit and said for example that Saul did not turn out to be a perfect man after the baptism of the Holy Spirit.
