The Power Of Unity - Corporate Anointing
 

Corporate anointing is the anointing of a body. Corps means body. Self preservation means causes us to think singular, ex: me, myself and I. But God sees the body. Inside each individual He has created, lies at treasure box filled with gifts and talents. He is unlocking these hidden treasure boxes in order that the world may SEE His son manifested by the glory of God.

The Tower of Babel is a negative example of unity, but it demonstrates the power.
(Gen 11:6) And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do. So God scattered them because of their ungodliness.

(Matt 3:12) Whose fan is in his hand, and he will thoroughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.

Deut 32:30 tells us that 'one chases a 1000 and two chases 10,000 to flight'.
This demonstrates the power we possess when we gather in unity. The corporate anointing is released.

He says 'do not forsake fellowship'. Fellowship is a time when saints gather to encourage, uplift and impart by sharing knowledge from the Lord. It is a time where you're eyes (spiritually speaking) are enlightened due to the gift of understanding. When you gather, different anointings and different spices are released. Everyone adds something, giving honor to the Lord.

When we give testimonials, it gives Him honor and glory. We tell how the blood of Jesus has given us the power to overcome the traps or obstacles we've faced while renewing our minds. We then set our hearts on the truth that is laid before us. We can do all things through Christ Jesus. He gives us the power and the authority. The key is in our thoughts and feelings which is the battlefield of the mind.

(1Cor 12:4-11) Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.
5 And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord.
6 And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all.
7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal.
8 For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;
9 To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;
10 To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues:
11 But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will.
Cor 12 explains the unity of the body with the diversity of gifts.

All these gifts, achievements and abilities are inspired and brought to pass by the Holy Spirit who appropriates to each person individually exactly as He has chosen. There are times He may choose for you to interpret tongues but then time may pass when you may not be operating in it at all, praying that He will let you use it again.

(1 Cor 12:12-14) For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ.
13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.
14 For the body is not one member, but many.

(1 Cor 12:18 -20) But now hath God set the members every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him.
19 And if they were all one member, where were the body?
20 But now are they many members, yet but one body.
God puts members in position in order to form a body.

(1 Cor 12:25) That there should be no schism (no division, and discord or lack of adaptation) in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another.

In an army there is a specific order of rank. There are the generals, corporals, and privates, everyone knows their rank. Their rank is determined by the one in charge. The Lord is the head of the church, His body. By recognizing your gift, (for instance if you are the eyes, you watch the enemy and guard the camp) you know your position in the body. You may be the hands with the gift of intercession. Everyone is commanded by the Commander in Chief, Lord of Hosts, to pray.  WATCH and PRAY!

God wants us to enter into His presence. We have people who are called, anointed and appointed to this position. We all must tune into the Spirit as it moves around us. God wants us to move as a group, He wants everyone to participate. Study David's men, helpers of war. God turned them into mighty men.

(1 Chronicles 12:33) Of Zebulun, such as went forth to battle, expert in war, with all instruments of war, fifty thousand, which could keep rank: they were not of double heart.
They moved as an army with "one heart". We are the Lord's army, positioning ourselves after God's heart.

(1 Chronicles 12: 38) All these men of war, that could keep rank, came with a perfect heart to Hebron, to make David king over all Israel: and all the rest also of Israel were of one heart to make David king.
When we move with one heart, we have power to enthrone the king.

(PS 86:11) Teach me thy the the the the way, O LORD; I will walk in thy truth: unite my heart to fear thy name.

(2 Chronicles 29:2,3) And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, according to all that David his father had done.
3 He in the first year of his reign, in the first month, opened the doors of the house of the LORD, and repaired them.

The the Lord gathered the priests and Levites to sanctify His house. He chose to create a house where His presence and glory could rest. We must position ourselves to allow Him to inhabit us by surrendering all onto Him. Pursue Him, chase after God. He will establish His kingdom where the gates of hell will not prevail against it. Position your heart to desire more of Him. Let the King of Glory the the come in.

My prayer is, “Father, create us to worship you in spirit and in truth . As you inhabit the praises of your people, help us create an atmosphere of worshiping you in unity, so that you will then come in and be glorified in this place. Father, be glorified WE PRAY!"
