To Live

Big Idea You weren't raised to survive. You were raised to live — and the anointing is what makes that possible.
Part One The Diagnosis:
You're Alive But Not Living
Resurrection happened to you — but not through you yet.
Romans 6:4 — NIV "We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life."
Resurrection happened to you — but not you yet. That gap = .
🔥  You can be saved and still be stuck in survival mode.
Part Two The Shift:
The Source Has Changed
The problem isn't effort. It's engine.
Galatians 2:20 — NIV "I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me."
Paul isn't trying harder — the changed. Different , not more effort. Most believers are trying to live a life on fuel.
🔥  The raised life doesn't run on willpower. It runs on resurrection power.
The anointing is already in you. You don't need more . You need to drill .
Part Three The Power:
The Anointing Makes It Real
Actual resurrection power — living in your body. Right now.
Romans 8:11 — NIV "And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of his Spirit who lives in you."
Acts 10:38 — NIV "...how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power, and how he went around doing good and healing all who were under the power of the devil, because God was with him."
The Anointing: God's flowing through your life to do what you cannot do on your .
1 John 2:27 — NIV "As for you, the anointing you received from him remains in you, and you do not need anyone to teach you. But as his anointing teaches you about all things — and as that anointing is real, not counterfeit — just as it has taught you, remain in him."
Already in you. Not earned. in Him.
🔥  The anointing isn't something you feel in a church service. It's something you live in on a Tuesday.
Three Practicals
① Rise and Realign Step 1 — Gratitude: Say one thing you're thankful for out loud. Step 2 — Before : Open the Word before any app. Step 3 — Confession: "The Spirit who raised Jesus from the dead lives in me. I walk in His power today."
② Pause and Pray First Ask: "Am I or right now?" Always pray before you push.
③ Remove the Resistance The anointing doesn't its way through. It where there's . Identify your leak. Remove it.
