There are times when God tries to a get our attention and He has been doing this to me numerous times I will see the number 1:11 and 11:11 while doing activities and in prayer and say, I receive those blessings for my me and family, whether it be money, spiritual growth, etc. The Word says we are to search the meaning of things the Holy Spirit is showing us.
God has Great impartation that will change our lives, our city and our nation. God has a Blessing for you in this time that is like no other blessing you have ever received, but you must reach out and take it!
God's Anointing of a thousand times more is powerful; it's life-changing, city-changing, nation-changing and world-changing!
This Revelation will launch you into a brand new Dimension!
For example: God owns "the cattle on a thousand hills" (Psalm 50:10 NIV).
He has commanded His covenant of blessing "for a thousand generations" (1 Chronicles 16:15 NIV).
THE THOUSAND-FOLD ANOINTING - WHAT IT IS AND WHAT IT DOES:
Throughout the Bible there are examples of different kinds of Anointing and measures of Anointing. We are probably most familiar with Scripture referring to double portions. The word also refers to hundred-fold, sixty-fold and thirty-fold increase, as well as the Anointing of a thousand times more!
Of all the meaningful, symbolically important numbers in the Bible, the number 1,000 is one of the most significant. It’s also one of the most common. In fact, the word "thousand" or "thousands" appears 521 times in your Bible. Over and over it is used to indicate more than just a literal quantity of something. It represents God’s unlimited power and abundance.
The Anointing of a thousand times more is a spiritual Anointing and is given to accomplish specific tasks within the Kingdom. This Anointing is going to be dispensed upon us for one primary purpose: Divine Increase and Enlargement. God is not interested in merely changing your life, but desires to change lives through you as He did through His Anointed servants in Biblical times.
God introduced Himself to Moses as He who is "Keeping mercy and loving-kindness for thousands" (Exodus 34:7 AMP)
Moses was speaking to the people reminding them what the Lord had told them. He said: 6 The Lord our God said to us in Horeb, You have dwelt long enough on this mountain. 7 Turn and take up your journey and go to the hill country of the Amorites, and to all their neighbors in the Arabah, in the hill country, in the lowland, in the South (the Negeb), and on the coast, the land of the Canaanites, and Lebanon, as far as the great river, the river Euphrates. 8 Behold, I have set the land before you; go in and take possession of the land which the Lord swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give to them and to their descendants after them. 9 I said to you at that time, I am not able to bear you alone. 10 The Lord your God has multiplied you, and behold, you are this day as the stars of the heavens for multitude. 11 May the Lord, the God of your fathers, make you a thousand times as many as you are and bless you as He has promised you! (Deuteronomy 1:6-11 AMP)
God has blessed, is blessing and will now bless us with an Anointing a thousand times greater than our present Anointing if we obey His leading and move from our present situation. Moses was reminding the people of God's promise and blessing them with an even greater Anointing to motivate them to possess all that God had given them. This Anointing of a thousand times more is seen in several places throughout Scripture.
There’s just something special about the number 1,000 in God’s spiritual economy.
THE PURPOSES OF THE THOUSAND-FOLD ANOINTING:
1. THE ANOINTING WILL HELP US DEFEAT OUR ENEMIES:
God's 1000-fold Anointing has several purposes. One of these purposes is to defeat our enemies. In Judges 7, Gideon and an army of 32,000 men were preparing to fight and overtake the Midianites and the Amalekites. In the previous chapter, God had chosen Gideon to be a warrior and to lead the army.
12 And the Angel of the Lord appeared to him and said to him, The Lord is with you, you mighty man of [fearless] courage. 15 Gideon said to Him, Oh Lord, how can I deliver Israel? Behold, my clan is the poorest in Manasseh, and I am the least in my father's house. (Judges 6:12, 15 AMP)
Gideon did not realize then that the Lord was Anointing him with the Anointing of a thousand times more, but this became clear in chapter 7. As Gideon was preparing the army of 32,000 for battle, the Lord spoke to him and told him the army was too big. God wanted to show the power of His Anointing, so He put the army through 2 tests.
Following these 2 tests, an army of only 300 remained. But Gideon and the army of 300 was Anointed! They were walking in the Anointing of a thousand times more and the outcome was glorious! 301 Men did the job of 32,000. Though the Midianites and Amalekites were as locusts far too many to be counted God's army of 301 soldiers defeated them and the victory was won! Look at Samson who entered a Philistine camp bound with new ropes, but then:
14 And when he came to Lehi, the Philistines came shouting to meet him. And the Spirit of the Lord came mightily upon [Samson], and the ropes on his arms became as flax that had caught fire, and his bonds melted off his hands. 15 And he found a still moist jawbone of a donkey and reached out and took it and slew 1,000 men with it. (Judges 15:14-15 AMP)
One man killed 1,000 men - with a primitive weapon. Is this possible in the natural? Absolutely not. But it is possible with God's Anointing of a thousand times more!
Consider David, who as a child, killed a lion and a bear, and then as a very young man, slew a giant named Goliath! And the women sang, Saul has slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands (1 Samuel 18:7 AMP)
It is a "thousandfold" blessing. David asks for the Lord’s help and favor in order: That our barns may be full, supplying all kinds of produce; That our sheep may bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our fields . .
(Psalm 144:13 NKJV).
In David’s day, livestock equaled wealth. There were no banks and no currency. David is literally calling for a thousandfold blessing upon the wealth of the people.
This is David, a man after God’s own heart, appealing to the unlimited multiplying power of the Lord. He is saying, take what we have, Lord, and multiply it abundantly!
None of these feats would have been possible without God's Anointing. The record of David's mighty men in 2 Samuel 23 is also a testament of God's Anointing. One of David's mighty men, Adino the Eznite, killed 800 men at one time with a spear!
GOD'S ANOINTING GIVES US AUTHORITY AND POWER OVER THE FORCES OF DARKNESS:
As Paul writes to the Ephesians in chapter 6 verses 10-13:
10 In conclusion, be strong in the Lord [be empowered through your union with Him]; draw your strength from Him [that strength which His boundless might provides]. 11 Put on God's whole armor [the armor of a heavy-armed soldier which God supplies], that you may be able successfully to stand up against [all] the strategies and the deceits of the devil. 12 For we are not wrestling with flesh and blood [contending only with physical opponents], but against the despotism's, against the powers, against [the master spirits who are] the world rulers of this present darkness, against the spirit forces of wickedness in the heavenly (supernatural) sphere. 13 Therefore put on God's complete armor, that you may be able to resist and stand your ground on the evil day [of danger], and, having done all [the crisis demands], to stand [firmly in your place]. Ephesians 6:10-13 AMP.
2. THE ANOINTING WILL GIVE NATURAL AND SUPERNATURAL PROVISION:
The life of Elijah is a great example of natural and Supernatural provision given by the Anointing. In 1 Kings chapter 17, Elijah was travelling as directed by the voice of the Lord, and God sent ravens to bring him food twice every day. As he continued on his journey, he met a widow and asked her to bring him water and bread. She replied, As the Lord your God lives, I have not a loaf baked but only a handful of meal in the jar and a little oil in the bottle. See, I am gathering two sticks, that I may go in and bake it for me and my son, that we may eat it--and die. 1 Kings 17:12 AMP.
Elijah told her not to fear, for he knew he was God's Anointed and that God would provide not only for him, but also for her. She fed him, and she and her household ate for many days. And from that point on, the bread and oil was Anointed and continued to meet her need.
CHRIST INSTRUCTED IN MATTHEW: 25 Therefore I tell you, stop being perpetually uneasy (anxious and worried) about your life, what you shall eat or what you shall drink; or about your body, what you shall put on. Is not life greater [in quality] than food, and the body [far above and more excellent] than clothing? 26 Look at the birds of the air; they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father keeps feeding them. Are you not worth much more than they? 27 And who of you by worrying and being anxious can add one unit of measure (cubit) to his stature or to the span of his life? 28 And why should you be anxious about clothes? Consider the lilies of the field and learn thoroughly how they grow; they neither toil nor spin. (Matthew 6:25-28 AMP)
3. GOD'S ANOINTING WILL PROVIDE FOR OUR NEEDS:
As Jesus was teaching the multitudes, healing the sick, opening blind eyes, causing the deaf and dumb to hear and speak, Christ was aware that the crowd not only needed supernatural sustenance, but natural sustenance as well.
He knew the crowd was hungry, and unlike today, there was no nearby drive-through restaurant. There were however, a total of 5 loaves and 2 small fishes among the disciples. So Jesus took what they had and through the Anointing provided enough food for 5,000 men, their wives, and their children. What you have, plus God's Anointing of a thousand times more, will provide for multitudes.
4. THE ANOINTING WILL SET THE CAPTIVES FREE:
And it shall be in that day that the burden of [the Assyrian] shall depart from your shoulders, and his yoke from your neck. The yoke shall be destroyed because of fatness [which prevents it from going around your neck] (Isaiah 10:27 AMP)
A yoke is a wood plank that connected 2 animals together, and in a figurative sense represents slavery and bondage. God gives us the Anointing so we can minister, break the yoke of bondage, and set the captives free. We are surrounded by captives those who are in bondage to the powers of darkness who desperately need the love of Christ to bring them to repentance and to loose the chains of sin. Like Christ, we are Anointed to proclaim liberty to the captives and guide them to redemption and restoration in Him.
The Anointing of a thousand times more will affect every aspect of our lives. We will increase in Prosperity. Imagine what minimum wages becomes when multiplied by a thousand. We will increase Spiritually. Imagine what Prayer becomes...We will increase in Ministry. Imagine what Evangelism and Soul-winning becomes...We will increase in Productivity. Work that once took a thousand men will be done by one. We will increase in Revelation. And where there was only one revelation per year, there will now be a thousand. We will Increase in numbers. Exponential growth, power, passion, position and possession, etc. will occur as every believer reaches out and accepts the Anointing of a thousand times more. And the list just goes on and on. The possibilities available through this Anointing are limitless, and this Anointing of a thousand times more is for you!
I CHALLENGE YOU TO DECREE DAILY:
I HAVE THE ANOINTING OF A THOUSAND TIMES MORE ON MY LIFE!!!
I WILL SUPERNATURALLY INCREASE, ENLARGE AND EXPAND IN EVERY AREA OF MY LIFE IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST OF NAZARETH. NO MORE LIMITS, NO MORE BOUNDARIES!!! IT IS DONE, AMEN!!!
