Beats From Your Pastor’s Heart:
1 John 2:27, “But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.”
The fact that you do not need anyone to teach you indicates that there is an inward tutor, an inward Person, who is teaching you.
The anointing is teaching us concerning all things.
When we are oriented to the anointing and we touch the Lord by praying and calling on Him and get to God, there is a kind of surveillance going on in our being.
Things get sorted out.
You get divided: “That is my mind. That is my flesh. That is coming from my self.”
There is a dividing of soul and spirit.
Then you can side with the Lord and stand with Him, even over against your self.
You can be most objective about your self.
You can so easily look at your wife and say, “Dear, I’m a wretch. I don’t know how you could be married to me. I don’t know how you could live for so many years with such a nature as mine.”
You can talk this way with inner glee because you are not one with that old nature.
You are one with Christ, and you are a partaker of Him.
Consider what would happen on this earth if all of us as believers would live by the anointing.
This does not mean that we would be perfect, in the sense of what we think perfection is.
Perfection in the divine realm is our getting to God.
It means that we touch His life in the midst of all our imperfection.
That is what perfection is.
It is living by the anointing and simply getting to God in the midst of what we pass through, even with our imperfections.
Until Tomorrow,
With A Shepherd’s Love
