Opposition from the Enemy Ezekiel 37:3-5 He asked me, "Son of man, can these bones live?" I said, "O Sovereign LORD, you alone know." Then he said to me, "Prophesy to these bones and say to them, 'Dry bones, hear the word of the LORD! This is what the Sovereign LORD says to these bones: I will make breath enter you, and you will come to life. Zeal for Soul-Winning 1

2 Acts 1:8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth." Acts 2:41, 47 Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved. Acts 4:4 But many who heard the message believed, and the number of men grew to about five thousand. John 4:39-41 Many of the Samaritans from that town believed in him because of the woman's testimony, "He told me everything I ever did." So when the Samaritans came to him, they urged him to stay with them, and he stayed two days. And because of his words many more became believers. John 4:31-34 Meanwhile his disciples urged him, "Rabbi, eat something." But he said to them, "I have food to eat that you know nothing about." Then his disciples said to each other, "Could someone have brought him food? My food, said Jesus, "is to do the will of him who sent me and to finish his work. 2

3 Acts 16:25-34 About midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the other prisoners were listening to them. Suddenly there was such a violent earthquake that the foundations of the prison were shaken. At once all the prison doors flew open, and everybody's chains came loose. At once all the prison doors flew open, and everybody's chains came loose. The jailer woke up, and when he saw the prison doors open, he drew his sword and was about to kill himself because he thought the prisoners had escaped. But Paul shouted, "Don't harm yourself! We are all here!" The jailer called for lights, rushed in and fell trembling before Paul and Silas. He then brought them out and asked, "Sirs, what must I do to be saved?" They replied, "Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved--you and your household." Then they spoke the word of the Lord to him and to all the others in his house. At that hour of the night the jailer took them and washed their wounds; then immediately he and all his family were baptized. The jailer brought them into his house and set a meal before them; he was filled with joy because he had come to believe in God--he and his whole family. Passionate Prayer 3

4 Matthew 26:41 Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the body is weak. Ephesians 6:18 And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints. Ezekiel 22:30-31 I looked for a man among them who would build up the wall and stand before me in the gap on behalf of the land so I would not have to destroy it, but I found none. So I will pour out my wrath on them and consume them with my fiery anger, bringing down on their own heads all they have done, declares the Sovereign LORD." The value of God s anointing chrio - to smear or rub with oil and, by implication, to consecrate for office or religious service aleipho to anoint 4

5 Oil evaporates and needs replenishment (lamp and machine) Oil will disappear in a vessel with leak. Don t give place to the devil (James 4:7, Eph. 4:22-27) Only fresh oil has proper density (viscosity) Old oil stinks and can be a source of engine trouble Maintain spiritual disciplines Work without anointing is nothing and unacceptable to God I Samuel 10 Saul was anointed and it transformed him. I Samuel 13:11-15 The sin of Saul. Violation of his calling. 2 Samuel 1:21 Saul s anointing was depleted. Evil spirits possessed him. We don t operate on yesterday s anointing Lord, empower me for your ministry! The Finger of God Ptr Ronald Molmisa Generation 3:16 Ministries 5
