If we are growing up in all things in Christ, the enemy will have to work harder against us this year than last. The enemy uses intimidation because it’s cheap. Only God is infinite and only he as abundance. The enemy has a budget. The devil has to calculate everything. How can he achieve huge gains with the least expenditure of resources? It worked for Goliath against all the soldiers of Israel. They had never met a warrior who practiced intimidation and lost his head.
Real Christians bear weight. They are strong enough to carry the heaviness and the anointing of the Spirit. The heavier the substance of your anointing, the more resources the enemy must deploy to counter your influence in the earth. The stronger the attack against you, the more presence of God he commits to you. What a great life we have!
If we do not abiding Christ, we have no substance. We are easily distracted, intimidated, and overcome. We are poor in spirit. Even here we are at the low place of our experience. The father has placed a blessing-Matthew 5 30-so that we can begin to recover who we really are. As he is. So are we in this world-first John 4:17.
We always choose our experience. To be overcome or being an overcomer? When crisis happens around your life kind of a family and friends, who are you in the context of that! What comes out of your heart in those moment? This is where your quality is defined.
To grow in substance and the anointing, you need a revelation of Jesus greater than your perspective on the situation at hand.
