“The anointing of God destroys the yoke.”
(Isaiah 10:27)
A yoke is a life center, much like a nucleus. It holds the nutrients of what something needs to survive. A yoke can be a choke-hold that weighs a person down like a slave who is forced to work against anything that will set them free. It can be viewed as a symbol of oppression, forced submission, and defeat.
The anointing of God is His supernatural power working through you by way of the Holy Spirit to do the seemingly impossible. The anointing is like a signet of God’s presence being with you. You need the anointing of God to complete the tasks that He has divinely assigned to you as His child. With God’s anointing, you will go places and people will be made free from the bondages/ struggles that have plagued them and their family through many lineages because the chains will be loosed through the undeniable power of God.
If I can be honest, some people fight their anointing because of fear. They don’t want it because of the responsibility that they will have to protect it from being tainted by their own actions or by people who will try to pervert it because the anointed individual does not know who they are in God.
The devil seeks to either misuse the anointing of God, to destroy it, or to keep a person from effectively operating in it. This process can look different for everyone so it’s important that you know what you are anointed by God to do and how the devil fights you in your life.
“For though we walk in the flesh [as mortal men], we are not carrying on our [spiritual] warfare according to the flesh and using the weapons of man.
The weapons of our warfare are not physical [weapons of flesh and blood].
Our weapons are divinely powerful for the destruction of fortresses.
We are destroying sophisticated arguments and every exalted and proud thing that sets itself up against the [true] knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought and purpose captive to the obedience of Christ, being ready to punish every act of disobedience, when your own obedience [as a church] is complete.”
(2 Corinthians 10:3-6)
When it comes to your life and the call on your life, the devil does not fight fair. 1 Peter 5:8 tell us to “stay alert! Watch out for your great enemy, the devil. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour.”
He will enter your life in any way that he can with the purpose of wreaking havoc. He can do this through traumatic experiences (especially the ones that were caused in your childhood), through music, movies, books, friendships/relationships (soul ties), family traditions ect.
The devil expects for you to not know who you are even if he does. He understands that as soon as you know who God says you are that you will destroy his kingdom, every block that he has set up against your lineage, and every plot that he has schemed against those who you are called to.
In the words of Bishop David Aaron Richey, “ If you don’t know who you are, or the world will tell you who you are not.” People spend their entire lives fighting the lies that the devil has attempted to magnify as a reality to keep them mute, hidden, and defeated.
“Put on all of God’s armor so that you will be able to stand firm against
all strategies of the devil.”
(Ephesians 6:11 NLT)
You need to know the scriptures listed above and many more because this is how you combat the trials that you encounter because of your anointing. You fight with the word of God. The anointing that God has called you to have will set nations free in Jesus name. This anointing destroys the fortresses of yolks that have prevented people from being all that they have been called to be. You are not exempt from this. The anointing of Jesus Christ has already destroyed the yolk of what the enemy has planned against you.
Be free in Jesus, accept your call, and go forth. You have yolks to break!
I pray for your mindset. Lord, help your people to know how to think properly about you, their experiences, their anointing and their purpose. I pray that you will increase their wisdom and that they will hunger and thirst after you so that you can fill them. Lord, intervene in their lives and teach them the weapons that you have given them to war against everything that wars against them. If the person reading this does not know who they are in you, their purpose, or the areas that they are anointed in, I pray that you will reveal it to them. Lord, help your people to accept the call on their lives and to not be afraid because you are with them. 2 Timothy 1:7 tells us that you have not given us the spirit of fear but of power and of love and of a sound mind. Help your people to have this sound mind. In Jesus name, Amen.
