THE ANOINTING SUFFICES

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Jeremiah 51-52
TEXT:
Isaiah 10:20-34
20 And
it shall come to pass in that day That the remnant of
Israel,
And such as have escaped of the house of Jacob, Will never
again depend on him who defeated them, But will depend on
the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, in truth.
21 The
remnant will return, the remnant of Jacob, To the Mighty
God.
22 For though your people, O Israel, be as the sand of
the sea, A remnant of them will return; The destruction decreed shall
overflow with righteousness.
23 For the Lord God of
hosts Will make a determined end In the midst of all the land.
24 Therefore thus says the Lord God of hosts: “O My people, who dwell in Zion, do not be afraid of the Assyrian. He shall strike you with a rod and lift up his staff against you, in the manner of Egypt.
25 For yet a very little while and the indignation will cease, as will My anger in their destruction.”
26 And the Lord of hosts will stir up a scourge for him like the slaughter of Midian at the rock of Oreb; as His rod was on the sea, so will He lift it up in the manner of Egypt.
27 It shall come to pass in that day That his burden will be taken away from your shoulder, And his yoke from your neck, And the yoke will be destroyed because of the anointing oil.
28 He
has come to Aiath, He has passed Migron; At Michmash he has attended
to his equipment.
29 They have gone along the
ridge, They have taken up lodging at Geba. Ramah is afraid, Gibeah of
Saul has fled.
30 Lift up your voice, O daughter of
Gallim! Cause it to be heard as far as Laish— O poor
Anathoth!
31 Madmenah has fled, The inhabitants of Gebim seek
refuge.
32 As yet he will remain at Nob that day; He
will shake his fist at the mount of the daughter of Zion,
The hill of Jerusalem.
33 Behold,
the Lord, The Lord of hosts, Will lop off the bough with
terror; Those of high stature will be hewn down, And the
haughty will be humbled.
34 He will cut down the thickets of
the forest with iron, And Lebanon will fall by the Mighty One.

KEY VERSE: Isaiah 10:27
“And it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden shall be taken away from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing.”
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
Stay in the Lord’s circle to the end.
THE MESSAGE:
God’s mercy has always revealed itself even where there is a promise of punishment against His people when they err. This was a recurring and significant theme in God’s assignments to the prophets when He had a message for His people after they had gone into sin.

Judah faced divine ostracism in the days of King Ahaz who sealed a pact with Assyria in order to gain protection from Israel and Syria. These were not deals that pleased the Lord. He said He would scourge Zion through external forces because of their action. Yet, He did not intend to wipe them out of existence. A remnant would be preserved because they were a people of covenant, upon whom there was “anointing” that could destroy yokes.
ALSO READ: OPEN HEAVENS DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY
People who have been redeemed by the blood of Jesus have a special seal or anointing on them that guarantees that no yoke or curse of the enemy affects them as long as they remain holy and faithful to Him and “abstain from every appearance of evil”. Consecrated believers connected to Jesus through His shed blood will survive and overcome any onslaught. The enemy’s “yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing.”
ALSO READ: CAC LIVING WATER FOR TODAY
Since there is no unconditional security in the plan of God, our part, as His chosen ones, is to “watch and pray” and not to fall away from the “narrow path” where we are guaranteed the protection promised by the Lord. The passover blood can only protect those who abide in the house marked by it. Outside the coverage of Christ’s blood, there is no true and lasting security.
DO HAVE A BLESSED DAY
