The Pharisees helped Jesus preach. Oh yes we know that they thought that they knew what they were doing, but it’s what they didn’t know, that we are going to share for a minute so that if your are inclined to go out and preach the gospel and you meet up with some resistance, you will have an ace in your back pocket and be able to use the situation so that the resistors themselves preach for you.
So I get up, get my coffee, and boom message. Now I share this with you because when God turns your anointing on and releases you to go and operate in your calling and purpose, you too should expect things to work out similarly.
I seems as though I could fall down these days and get three messages on the way down and two when I hit. It is the strangest thing ever, and yet I wouldn’t want it any other way. And how do I know it is God and not just some hidden talent of communication that was released when I bumped my head or something a long time ago? Nope, communication is not my natural strength be it in writing or in speaking. In fact, everything that I am doing I am doing it in the power of Gods anointing.
There is a funny turn about that may be helpful for those of you who have yet discovered a demonic strategy to try and keep you from moving in the things of the kingdom of God.
Between Jr high and high school I got 5-D’s and 2-F’s. The courses that those grades applied were English, Government, and History. I barely graduated high school due to the 3-D’s and 2-F’s in my senior year. In my life, looking back over 63-years, it is funny to see what changes took place in that I worked in Government for 30-years, am a bible teacher and love to read about history, and have this Podcast which requires me to speak as well as write. I have also written 8-books of which will get published in the right season. Now besides the fact that this proves that our academic system is not a good measure of a persons destiny or of their strengths, this strange turn of events occurred because of one thing occurring in my life.
The devil will attach the gifts on your life, so in a strange way what you don’t seem to excel in God, once you surrender to Him, turns things around and exposes the strategies of the devil.
