In a newly released video, prophetic voice Rabbi Jonathan Cahn is encouraging the body of Christ to walk in the power and anointing of the Holy Spirit.
Cahn first explains how the anointing of God is so big that it wasn’t just meant for one of us to carry, but that God gives His people the power to do His good work throughout the generations. Just as we see the outpouring coming upon the disciples in the book of Acts, our heavenly Father is still giving us this greater measure today.

“…the Holy Spirit is coming upon the disciples of Messiah as a mighty rushing wind. What’s happening? It is the transference. It is the commissioning. It is the anointing. It is the mantle of Messiah. Why is Pentecost so awesome? Why so powerful? Because it’s the anointing of Messiah,” Cahn says.
The anointing of the Holy Spirit is so wonderful and awesome that it isn’t just something that God intended to share with one person, but He desires to use and know each of us intimately to spread His good news throughout the earth.

“It’s not just the Spirit came upon David or the Spirit came upon Joshua. It’s that the Spirit came as a mighty rushing wind because Messiah is so great and so anointed that His anointing comes with that power,” says Cahn.
“Messiah’s anointing power is so great, Messiah is so great, it can’t come on just one person,” he continues. “[It’s] not going to come on one prophet or one apostle or one quote, ‘pope.’ It’s going to come on all His people who receive it.”
Because Jesus Himself is the anointed One, the Holy One of Israel, we as His followers have also been anointed by God. Jesus places His mantle on each of us, whether we feel adequate to carry out the calling He’s place on our lives or not. Just as God anoints and chooses all of those who follow Him by calling Him Lord, He also then gives individual tasks and assignments by His Holy Spirit.
“He died your death specifically that you would live His life specifically. You can only live His life by His specific anointing. So, it’s not just that He has an anointing for everybody; He has a specific anointing for you and your life,” Cahn says.
No matter what your background is, if you have chosen to follow Christ, God has a plan and a purpose to use you for the building up of His kingdom. All you have to do is say yes to that calling.
