Today’s Reading:
Romans 8
“The mature children of God are those who are moved by the impulses of the Holy Spirit. And you did not receive the “spirit of religious duty,” leading you back into the fear of never being good enough. But you have received the “Spirit of full acceptance,” enfolding you into the family of God. And you will never feel orphaned, for as he rises up within us, our spirits join him in saying the words of tender affection, “Beloved Father!” For the Holy Spirit makes God’s fatherhood real to us as he whispers into our innermost being, “You are God’s beloved child!” And since we are his true children, we qualify to share all his treasures, for indeed, we are heirs of God himself. And since we are joined to Christ, we also inherit all that he is and all that he has. We will experience being co-glorified with him provided that we accept his sufferings as our own.”
Romans 8:14-17 TPT
The Spirit of the Living God says,
My grace is dripping like raindrops. My anointing is falling as if from the sky. Worship the Lord on High. As you exalt Your King, I will exalt you in My favor. As you lift My Name on high, I will set precious jewels in your crown. I anoint you with My oil of gladness. I pour out My favor in your life. Will I not adorn you for the role, title and position to which you are called? I Am the One calling you by name. I Am the One Anointing the way with My favor and great incomparable unmanufacturable grace. Will not My love shine brightly on you as the sun? It already is. Lift your head My dear. Lift your head oh valiant warrior. Your King is here. Your King of glory — the King of your commissioning and the One who has lavished great favor upon your life is here. I Am here in your midst. Will not your good, good Father and King adorn you with priestly robes? Will I not mantle you with kingly garments from which your voice of praise will rise? From which your chin and eyes will lift to see My face and begin to fathom your destiny in Me?
“The entire universe is standing on tiptoe, yearning to see the unveiling of God’s glorious sons and daughters! For against its will the universe itself has had to endure the empty futility resulting from the consequences of human sin. But now, with eager expectation, all creation longs for freedom from its slavery to decay and to experience with us the wonderful freedom coming to God’s children.”
Romans 8:19-21 TPT
“Who is this King of glory,” they will say. But you will know. “Who is this Ancient King of glory of whom we never knew,” they will say. But you will be adorned in priestly robes. You will be mantled with kingly garments and crowned as My child, My chosen, protected and anointed one. You will speak the words of My favor. You will lift your voice in authority, grace and power. You will speak, and they will listen. These will not be like the former days where you felt as one crying in the wilderness. These are the new days of the priestly, kingly anointing. These are the new days of priestly, kingly commissioning and exaltation, the unfurling of My favor that accompanies this time and allows the word to go forth for reception, for resonance, for connection and for change. This is the time of the truth leaving your lips in power that brings tangible results. No more are the days of words that seem to fall out the ground. All that you have spoken in My Name has seeded and will sprout in this season. All that you will speak in this time will go forth and accomplish that for which it is sent.
“God, the searcher of the heart, knows fully our longings, yet he also understands the desires of the Spirit, because the Holy Spirit passionately pleads before God for us, his holy ones, in perfect harmony with God’s plan and our destiny. So we are convinced that every detail of our lives is continually woven together for good, for we are his lovers who have been called to fulfill his designed purpose. For he knew all about us before we were born and he destined us from the beginning to share the likeness of his Son. This means the Son is the oldest among a vast family of brothers and sisters who will become just like him. Having determined our destiny ahead of time, he called us to himself and transferred his perfect righteousness to everyone he called. And those who possess his perfect righteousness he co-glorified with his Son!”
Romans 8:27-30 TPT
This is a fruitful season of power, authority and unprecedented productivity, because it is a great synergistic time. It is the time of the priestly, kingly anointing, the crowning, the exaltation of warriors as kings and of lovers as priests. This is the priestly-kingly, lover-warrior anointing and commissioning. This is a time where the garments of authority and power are upon you. They are yours, and your words will go out in power, with authority. And they will accomplish the purpose for which we have sent them, I in you and you in Me. The entwining of your life in Mine, your heart in Mine, your trust and future in Me has allowed the power of My lifeblood to surge through your veins. And you will radiate with power from on high. This is a surging and synergistic merging of time, favor, anointing and commissioning. You have long been called out. You have already been sent. But now you go forth in power, and the authority in your voice will make hell shudder and will stir hearts to life.
How to Respond
- Worship the Lord in abandon. Give yourself to Him in praise.
- Pray, Holy Spirit come in power and fill me up until I am overflowing and flooded with the awareness of Your Presence. Lord, I lay my life down in total surrender before You. You made me, so You know what’s best for me. You know all of the plans, purposes and moments for which You tailor-made me. I want to be one who is marked as a warrior-lover, who You anoint with the grace and favor and adorn with the robe of a priest and the garments of a king. I want to be one who walks in the authority and power that is mine in and through Christ my King and Savior. I want to see my words, which are Your words move in power and cause change. I want to be a partner with You and entwined as one with You. I want to hold nothing back.
- Declare, great is the Lord and worthy of all honor, glory and praise. His timing is perfect. His ways are perfect, true and sure. He is the immovable, unshakeable God. None can stand beside Him. None are like Him. The Earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof. He marks out the times and seasons, and these are the days of His glory, His authority and His power going forth in the Earth. These are the days of the revealing of His sons and daughters.
- Decree, I will be among those whom the Lord has called out, has anointed and commissioned in favor and with grace. I will be one who is adorned by the Lord in priestly robes and kingly garments. I will walk in the authority and the power given to me by Christ my King, and I will be part of a synergistic moment that sparks the time of the greater works — greater works than were even seen and done in the time of Jesus. I will be part of those who are empowered and emboldened and shine like the sun because of the radiant love, authority and power of Holy Spirit, the same Spirit who raised Christ from the dead — who is living and surging in me.
