If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth: But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.— I John 1:6, 7

The starting point to living a life of deliverance and redemption is to know that the Blood has provided you with the forgiveness of sins. You cannot live in guilt, condemnation, or in religious works to cover your own sins, and live in the kingdom of God. The sin problem has been settled! Your sin problem has been settled! Your sins have been purged, removed as far as the east is from the west from you, and have been cast into the sea of forgetfulness. Not only that, but the old sinner has passed away--been killed--at the cross, so you can start fresh as a new creation. Stop thinking about and focusing on sin and failure and start to think about and meditate on your redemption and deliverance. If you sin, confess it and forget about it. He is faithful and just to forgive and cleanse you from it. Learn to walk in the light as He is in the light – in perfect fellowship with Him, because you have the forgiveness of sins.

But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him. — 1 John 2:27 

The thing that separated Jesus from others in His earth-walk was the anointing, or the Spirit of God in His life (Luke 4:18-21).  Many read about Jesus and see the great things He did and say, “That was just for Jesus!”  …but Jesus did all by and through the anointing that was active in His life (John 14:10, 11).  He operated as a man anointed with the Holy Ghost and power (Acts 10:38).  In today’s verse, John states that you have received the anointing in your life.  He does not say you will get the anointing, struggle for the anointing, or pray to receive the anointing--but you have received the anointing!  Everything Jesus did because of the anointing is now available to you because you have the same anointing.  Do not go by what you see and feel, but believe the Word that declares “you have the anointing.”  Remind yourself over and over today–-“I have the anointing!”

Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? — 1 Cor. 3:16

The anointing which you have came from God.  It was His desire to re-create you as a holy and righteous “house” of God.  This anointing you have abides, lives, and dwells in you.  It is not mind-power or soul-power; it is supernatural “God-power.”  You now have the spiritual equipment needed to live a victorious life.  All you will ever need is already in you, but you must learn to cooperate and work with that ability.  What a privilege to be anointed of God and taught by that anointing!  The more aware you become of the anointing you have, the more that anointing will work in your life.  “I have the anointing!”

But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. — John 14:26

The anointing you have of God is in you to teach you all things.  You have a teacher, an educator of spiritual things, living in you, all day, every day.  You have the ability to be taught of the Lord throughout your day.  Many are taught by trials, hardships, and setbacks, but God fully intended to teach you Himself, by the anointing within you.  His desire is to teach you all things.  Spend some time each day with the Word of God and the Spirit of God.  Spiritual class is in session–-not only on Sunday morning, but all the time!  You have a continual, permanent teacher with and in you always.  Class is now in session!  Expect to be taught!
