Romans 8:37 says, “We are more than conquerors and gain an overwhelming victory through him who loved us.” This means that believers in Jesus are empowered by God to have victory over sin and the things in this world that try to keep us from living a godly life.
The question is: What’s the key to living in God’s power and actually becoming more than a conqueror? It’s the anointing of the Holy Spirit!
The anointing is God’s ability in you to enable you to do something with ease that you could never do in your own effort or without a struggle. Much like a car’s engine that eventually won’t run very well without motor oil, trying to do life without the anointing will make us powerless to do everything God created us to do.
Every one of us has a calling on our life; a plan designed by God specifically for us. But not everyone fulfils their God-given purpose and plan. Many times, people get distracted by other pursuits, or they get overwhelmed by a task that feels too big to handle, or they may even get caught up trying to do what someone else is called to do.
Whatever the reason is for getting offtrack, lack of sensitivity to the Holy Spirit is most likely at the root of it. You see, the Holy Spirit is our helper. He is the one who leads each person to the work they are called to do. And he also supplies the anointing, or power, to do it.
