What are you anointed to do? This question not only challenges us but also invites us to reflect on our unique calling and purpose. In this episode, we recount personal stories and pivotal moments in ministry, including a touching experience from my teenage years where an elderly retired minister anointed me with oil, symbolically passing on his mantle of faith. These stories highlight the powerful legacy of faith we inherit and the responsibility we have to share the gospel with future generations.

We also dive into the role of the Holy Spirit in our lives, exploring how the Spirit brings freedom, establishes us in Christ, and seals us with a divine guarantee. Drawing from biblical examples like Samson and Saul, we discuss the importance of using God's anointing for His glory and not personal gain. Jesus' mission, as proclaimed in Isaiah, calls us to spread the good news and liberty, urging us to embrace our divine purpose with a renewed sense of commitment and passion.

Lastly, we explore the concept of spiritual refinement through the fire of God, comparing it to the refining of gold. Maintaining our spiritual fervor, spending time with God, and being prepared for life's unexpected events like the 2020 pandemic are crucial. Reflecting on Mary anointing Jesus, we emphasize how intimate time with Him allows us to carry His fragrance, impacting those around us. Join us for a heartfelt prayer for blessings and peace as we conclude this enriching episode.
