Arise Anointed and Ablaze
Now is the time for God’s anointing to arise and become ablaze in you. The current climate and the recent state of the country could cause alarm in some people. This is not the time to curl up and take cover but to stir up the gifts that God has placed in you (2 Timothy 1:6), arise with God’s anointing ablaze, and fulfill His will for your life no matter the current circumstance surrounding your society. You have been anointed and equipped with unique gifts and talents that were tailor-made for you to use to represent your Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, in the Earth. What better way to commemorate and celebrate the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus than to awaken and set ablaze your gifts and talents that are lying dormant, or that need to level up, in you. This is the season for a revival to take place along with renewal, restoration, and recovery not only in your surroundings but in your mind, body, and spirit also. God is calling you to action. He wants you to arise and go forth on fire for Him and promises to be with you and provide everything you need to do your assignment. Whether you are a young or a seasoned saint, it is time to take authority and rev up or revive the gifts that God has blessed you with. Throughout the Bible, you can find examples and encouragement from people God called and who arose to action. When He calls you, you need to arise in His anointing and power and move forward fearlessly and on fire for Him destined to win. You have to know God’s voice when He calls you (John 20 April 2020 | Grace&Glory
10:27). When Samuel, the prophet, was a young boy, God called him and shared with him what He would do for Israel and the dread and doom that was to come to Eli’s house (1 Samuel 3:11-14) but initially Samuel didn’t know it was God who was calling him. It was Eli who helped the little lad learn the voice of God and help him give the correct response to God, “speak, your servant is listening” (1 Samuel 3:10). Samuel’s response to arise was anointed by God, He was with him always, and everything He prophesied indeed came to pass (1 Samuel 3:19). God can call you to arise anointed and ablaze out of a situation where there seems to be no hope. Jairus’s daughter was assumed dead but Jesus assured Jairus and the others that she was not dead but asleep (Mark 5:39). Jesus took the dear little damsel’s hand and said, “talitha cumi,” which translated from Aramaic means, “little girl, I say to you, get up” (Mark 5:41). Jesus called out to the little lady and told her to arise. What seemed like a dead situation was deemed a miracle. Jesus also called Lazarus from the dead and told him, “Lazarus come forth” (John 11:43-45). Lazarus was still bound in grave clothes but He heard Jesus’s voice and got up and arose out of the tomb and Jesus said, “Loose him and let him go” (John 11:44). God has loosed you to arise anointed and ablaze to go forward in your purpose. Jesus is our ultimate example to arise anointed and ablaze. After His death, burial and resurrection, He rose early on the third day just like He said He would with all power in His hand (Matthew 28:6). Now it’s your turn to arise anointed and ablaze. Jesus called each of these Biblical examples by name. He knows your name and is calling you to arise anointed and ablaze. His anointing is within you and the fire of the Holy Ghost is ablaze within you. Like Queen Esther, you have been called to arise anointed and ablaze to take action “for such a time as this” (Esther 4:14). Sing the song lyrics, “I will arise and go forth in the name of the Lord of Hosts for He has conquered every foe by His name.” Let those lyrics be your testimony and daily affirmation to encourage you to Tracey Nicole George arise anointed and ablaze.
