Today’s Message: The Anointing of Mary and Joseph
The anointing of Jesus is an anointing of miracles, signs, and wonders—an anointing of the extraordinary. This is why the story of Christmas is more than just a narrative; it’s a divine revelation of God’s amazing plans, reflecting how truly amazing our God is.
In the beginning, God created man and woman. Man came from God, and woman came from man—man was God’s idea (Genesis 1:26).
Genesis 1:2 says: “And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.”
Heaven is heaven because of God’s presence. The earth, void and without form, lacked this presence until God began to reveal His glory through His seed—man. Man is a vessel of God’s seed. Once man recognized his role in creation, knowledge, ideas, and innovations began to flow. As Genesis 1:28 declares, God commanded man to be fruitful, multiply, and replenish the earth. Likewise, man carries God’s purpose, just as Mary and Joseph did.
When man fell, his divine essence was not entirely lost. Genesis 3:7 says: “And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves aprons.” Who taught them to sew? This creative ability came from the seed of God within them. As Jeremiah 1:5 reminds us: “Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you…” There is something extraordinary within you, waiting for your surrender so it can be revealed. Mary was such a vessel.
For 400 years, the Israelites were in bondage, waiting for deliverance. God saw their suffering but waited for His appointed deliverer—Moses—to rise. Today, God is still waiting for someone to rise and bring change.
People of God, your family cannot remain in poverty, nor can your children continue to live in rented houses for another year. You are chosen by God to be the solution. His seed is within you.
Remember, a woman came from man. Genesis 2:23 records Adam declaring: “This is now bone of my bones…” Man’s cells, formed from bone marrow, carry the creative essence of God. Similarly, the second Adam, Jesus, came from a woman because the seed of a woman would crush the devil’s head (Genesis 3:15).
God never fails. Though His plans may seem delayed, they always come to fruition. He chose Mary, a young virgin, to bring forth the Savior. In the same way, He can use your life to manifest greatness, regardless of your background or past failures.
When Mary and Joseph took baby Jesus to Simeon for dedication (Luke 2:25-29), they carried a destiny so profound that even the mighty acknowledged its significance. What God is about to do in your life will astonish even the great.
The first Adam came from God to rule but fell short. The second Adam came from a woman to restore what was lost. The birth of Jesus through Mary and Joseph was a global event involving kings, angels, and nations like Rome and Egypt.
Others before Jesus attempted to bring change: Elijah, who remained unmarried, and Eli, whose sons failed morally. Yet, the product of Mary—Jesus—was the only one who could confront and defeat the devil.
Declare this with faith: “Lord, give me a global project that will impact generations!”
Saints, the challenges in your family and Uganda have been waiting for you because you are God’s chosen solution. When Mary and Joseph aligned with God’s plan, history was transformed.
Remember, our God has never failed, and He does not plan to fail.
