The hand of God in a person\u2019s life could be seen as the anointing.  When the anointing is on a person it produces results.  \u201c<\/strong>How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him<\/em>\u201d Acts 10:38. When Jabez prayed \u201c\u2026that thine hand might be with me\u2026\u201d <\/em>he was asking for God\u2019s anointing to face a difficult task.  Some commentators believe that the occasion of Jabez\u2019s prayer was the expulsion of the Canaanites from his territory. The only thing that was going to get him through that situation was the anointed direction of God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We all face situations where we need to hear from God.  Many times God will speak to us during a church service where the Word of God is being preached.  I have heard of this happening to business people in my congregation more times that I can recall.  They were just sitting in a service and the Spirit of God would give them direction for their business.  He would show them what adjustments to make to get out of financial crisis.  The message preached that day would not even be about finances, but the anointing on the Word brought them direction.  That adjustment would not have been thought of without the anointing touching their life.  I love God and want to please Him. I want the hand of God on my life!  The anointing on my life will help me be a good husband and father.  Let the hand of God be upon me!  Anointing, fall on me \u2013 live big within me!  Touch me!  Anointing of God take this piece of clay and do something with it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
