The Abiding Anointing is part 2 in our series called 'Christ in you the hope of glory' and we look at the importance of walking carefully so we can be carriers of the anointing.
There is an interesting Delmer which has been debated for generations that was Jesus all God while in the earth or was He just a man with the power of God within Him?
The disciples had been with Jesus for over two years and I’d imagine that they had reached a point where they needed to see some fruit in their lives but there was nothing. So, like many of us the disciples plucked up the courage and asked the Lord to increase their faith for them.
Voice activation is where you use your own words to activate things and this is not something new. In April 2011 Apple launches Siri, the first digital assistant and we were all wowed by the technology where you can say things and the technology responded. Hay Siri! What's the weather forecast today? Hay Siri! Turn the volume up.
We can get so amazed by technology especially the things that make our lives easier, that it tends takes away from the method or systems put in place by God. From the dawn of creation, God chose voice activation as a way to create things and He Himself uses the same method and calls things that do not exist as though they did. I want to show you this scripture in Rom 4 regarding God’s method of voice activation.

A burden on your shoulder is a weight designed by Satan to make you toil and to slow you down so that you can’t run the race with endurance. A yoke is designed to lock you into the same day in, day out toil which cannot be broken naturally. The anointing that was upon Jesus was the ‘Burden Removing, Yoke Destroying, Power of God’ I have good news for you this morning, the Anointing Breaks the Yoke of sickness, disease, being broken hearted, poverty, debt and death. Your sickness is a yoke of bondage locking you to the curse which is designed to steal, kill and destroy. Not only did Jesus remove burdens and destroy yokes, He came with a different burden and a different yoke designed to empower us.
We are having Miracle Services here at Living Word Church, so don’t come for prayer, come for a miracle. In the ministry of Jesus have you wondered how many people came to Jesus to pray for them compared to Jesus just releasing the miracle power of the Holy Spirit. Jesus just released His faith when He spoke and, in many cases, it was the individual’s faith that released the power of the Holy Spirit.
So, is it possible for your faith to become dormant? I believe that this man's faith in John 5 had become dormant.
What does dormant mean? Asleep, sleeping, slumbering or comatose. Meaning that your faith is asleep or comatose (in a coma)
We get free from shyness, rejection, insecurity and rejection by repentance. Repentance means to change our mind or change our thinking. My actions are a manifestation of the thoughts that produce those actions. Our thoughts are the thing that produce actions both good and bad. I am responsible for my actions.
This miracle doesn’t happen without these four men taking the time out of their busy schedules to come and meet at the house of the paralytic man. They would have…
