Which grid?

 How is YOUR sphere of influence? 

11/25 Daily Exhortation (Heb.3:13; 10:25; Matt.6:11; Luke 11:3)…

Let us dive into this 11:25 on this 11/25…

Numbers 11:25 (KJB)  And the LORD came down in a cloud, and spake unto him, and took of the spirit that was upon him, and gave it unto the seventy elders: and it came to pass, that, when the spirit rested upon them, they prophesied, and did not cease.

This builds up to one of my all-time favorite passages: 

Numbers 11:29 And Moses said unto him, Enviest thou for my sake? would God that all the Lord's people were prophets, and that the Lord would put his spirit upon them!

Our focus passage indicates that God will take the anointing of a leader and spread that to others. 

2 Kings 2:15 And when the sons of the prophets which were to view at Jericho saw him, they said, The spirit of Elijah doth rest on Elisha. And they came to meet him, and bowed themselves to the ground before him.

If you count the miracles wrought by Elijah, you’ll find that Elisha did exactly DOUBLE having received of the double portion of God’s anointing upon him. 

How do you ZEALOUSLY AFFECT the Brethren? 

Galatians 4:18 But it is good to be zealously affected always in a good thing, and not only when I am present with you.

Paul's anointing lingers!

Acts 14:2 But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles, and made their minds evil affected against the brethren.

Note the other side of the grid trying to “EVIL AFFECT” against the Brethren… 

EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. PERIOD. And in every single time period. 

THE KINGDOM OF LIGHT VERSUS THE KINGDOM OF DARKNESS. The battle rages on!!! (See the Acronym Teaching on the Bad Grid Versus the Good Grid)...

Paul stated in Philippians 1:7 “…ye all are partakers of my grace….” 

Christians are called to be SALT AND LIGHT (Matt. 5:13-14) in this world. The Bride of Christ’s presence holds back the spirit of antichrist from full manifestation (2 Thess. 2:7). The “Good Grid” of the body of Christ which spans 2000 years and unites every real church in the earth is all inter-connected (1 Peter 5:7-8; Eph. 3:15, etc.). 

What you do affects ALL in that Good Grid (if you will) and impacts that Evil Grid (Eph. 6:12) and drives back the Kingdom of Darkness. There is a sanctifying grace that follows you. Unless of course, you are in unrepentant sin which nullifies this and quickens the WRONG grid (another message altogether). 

You bring people with you before the Throne. Jesus taught us to pray “OUR Father…” Why? We bring all those that are under our sphere of influence. 

One of my all-time favorite and most oft-prayed verses is: 

‘

Song of Solomon 1:4 Draw me, we will run after thee: the king hath brought me into his chambers: we will be glad and rejoice in thee, we will remember thy love more than wine: the upright love thee.

Note it says to DRAW ME, and *WE* will run after thee… 

This works both ways (Good Grid / Evil Grid). 

Authority trickles down. 

Proverbs 29:12 If a ruler hearken to lies, all his servants are wicked.

When church members are off into secret sins, it quickens the wrong grid. When teachers (Eph. 4) are giving place to the wrong grid, it affects many. The Holy Ghost will SMOKE THEM OUT eventually (PRAISE JESUS!!!!! <3 ) but til then, two grids are colliding. These things OUGHT NOT SO TO BE. 

All partook of Phinehas’ zeal (Numbers 25:11-13)… One man's zeal can affect all, and "one sinner destroyeth much good" (Eccl. 9:18). One Achan sin in the camp can cause many to be defeated (Joshua 7, etc.). 

With which Grid are you networking? Trying to do a little of both? I trow not. 

 

What do you have upon you that God can spread to the others? 

Ephesians 4 says that EVERY JOINT supplies in the body of Christ. A local/regional church should gather together with a corporate, collective anointing and overflow of what all God has been doing DAILY. It should be a demonstration of the Spirit and power in confirmations of God’s words, glorious Providences, etc.
