Channeling Grace

“Just as the anointing has taught you, remain in him.” (1 John 2:27 TPT)

Try this simple experiment: Open your kitchen faucet on one side of your sink and place a cup on the other side. Hold a straw under the running water and angle it so as to channel the water into the cup. What are the variables that affect the conveyance of water? What happens if the cup is not lower than the water source? What if the straw is not held steady in the stream of water? Does the straw have to be closer to the stream or the cup? Wouldn’t it be ideal if the cup were positioned directly under the faucet?

Positioning ourselves under God is the most important factor in our life of faith. Ideally we would all place ourselves directly under HIS power. Ministry is the channeling of grace to those who are still at a distance. Those of us who are called to carry Christ have to be focused: we must remain steadily in the flow of anointing. We must be properly aligned in order to convey the Message. We won’t be able to reach everyone. Those who have placed themselves too far away or too high may be inaccessible at this time. However, do not give up hope. Life circumstances may humble them. Maturity may bring them closer to Christ. Just focus on your mission. Vigilantly hold yourself in position. Abide in the stream of grace. Allow God’s anointing to flow through you at all times.
