The Anointing

“The anointing breaks the yoke of bondage!” (Isaiah 10:27 KJV) That’s what I always heard as a new believer. There is truly nothing like it when the Holy Spirit breaks in through a song, message, testimony, prayer or through the Word.

I saw that this past Sunday. We had 6 Japanese students here at NWF who had NEVER been to church. But a strange but true thing is that they had been taught the song Amazing Grace (in English nonetheless) in grade school. When we sang that song at church on Sunday the Holy Spirit fell and 2 of the girls broke down crying—later stating they “felt God”! Feeling God is good—but not enough for salvation.

Today we were taking one of the Japanese students to the airport. She asked, “Why do you believe in Jesus?” We told her 2 things—(1) Remember how you felt God on Sunday. He’s real. (2) Jesus lived, died and rose again to prove He’s God and the only Savior!

The full “anointing that breaks the yoke of bondage” comes as the Holy Spirit is embraced and the Word is taught. Spirit and Truth…breaks the yoke of bondage. Pray with us that all 6 of these students will come to radical saving faith in Jesus Christ!
