Recharge - Phil Pringle

Read
Ezekiel 37:1-11

There are ministries that come and go as times pass by because the anointing oil, the outpouring of God's presence was something that was not sought after daily. If our lives have gotten boring, the beauty is that we can get that fire back in our bones by earnestly seeking His presence. Getting fresh oil in our life means getting a new attitude and positioning ourselves in a way that the Hand of God can come upon us, it’s a constant posture of gratitude and worship instead of whining and complaining.All of us are always being updated by God as everytime we get plugged into Him we are not only getting recharged but we are getting renewed into the image of Him. However most of us are more interested in his hand than his face so instead of seeking him for his blessings it’s when we seek Him for Him that we will experience fresh oil. The encounter happens when we realise that: 

1] Prayer isn't about praying, it’s about being in a relationship.
2] We won’t be in control when God is moving
3] When you take steps towards Him, God moves in

As Chrisitans we will end up either becoming fountains of living water or drains. We want to be a group of people that give life to those around us because we are called to be salt and light in this world. When we are carried away in the presence of the Lord we step back with more joy, love and a renewed sense of life! Maybe God will fill us up and drop us into a valley but it's only because He is now equipping us to be people that will prophesy life into dry bones!

Application:
Have you been satisfied with yesterdays oil? When was the last time you sought God’s presence just to be with Him?
Prayer:
Lord here I am, to be still and know that you are God. I give this moment to you, without all distraction. Meet me and encounter me here and renew the fresh oil in this heart
