Matthew 4:23 AMP “And He went throughout all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues and preaching the good news (gospel) of the kingdom, and healing every kind of disease and every kind of sickness among the people [demonstrating and revealing that He was indeed the promised Messiah].”
There is still so much to say about this verse. Let’s explore a little bit more but feel free to read past days if you want more about this verse.
Jesus was not an official rabbi in the church and yet He taught in the synagogues and preached the good news of the kingdom.
This is an important point from two perspectives:
- The education many believe necessary is not in order to do what I have asked you to do. Sometimes education is required, however, many people allow a lack of education to hold them back from an anointing or a gifting that I have given them. I can teach you what you need to know in ways that you don’t know of yet.
- Many people are allowed to preach within the churches, and they may, or may not, have My anointing on them. Know the person you are listening to and know their life before you believe all that they say. This is essential.
There is a holiness that people have when they truly know Me and have been taught by Me. Look for this holiness. It can be subtle of course, but it is there. If you believe the words coming from a preacher’s mouth are self-ordained or human-ordained, it is better not to listen because they are only able to teach things that come from human beings.
If, however, someone has a holiness to them and their words seem to be God ordained because they bring the fruits of the Spirit to life (love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, self-control (Galatians 5:22-23)) then do not be as concerned with their education because you may be speaking to someone who I, personally, educated.
And in your own life, don’t let something created by human beings hold you back from your calling. Step into your anointing and your calling, regardless of whether you think you can do it or not. I will provide…either knowledge…or supernatural anointing…or people who have the skills you need.
How many have missed their God given destiny because they listened to the limitations put on them by human beings.
And how many are reading this now with their heart stirring…feeling their destiny come alive and seeing the very next step to take. Listen to My Holy Spirit. I am leading you!
