OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL
DATE: FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 18TH 2026
TOPIC: PERMEATING ANOINTING
MEMORIZE:
"The LORD will perfect that which concerneth me: thy mercy, O LORD, endureth for ever: forsake not the works of thine own hands." Psalm 138:8 (KJV)
BIBLE READING: 2 KINGS 13:21
21 And it came to pass, as they were burying a man, that, behold, they spied a band of men; and they cast the man into the sepulchre of Elisha: and when the man was let down, and touched the bones of Elisha, he revived, and stood up on his feet.
MESSAGE:
In Mark 8:22-25, Jesus spat on the eyes of a blind man, laid His hand on him and asked if he could see. The blind man looked up and said that he saw men as trees, walking. Someone else would have been content with this miracle- at least the blind man could now see. However, Jesus touched the man a second time, and he began to see properly. That is a good example of how the anointing is meant to flow through the life of the anointed.
Elisha was another fellow whom the anointing permeated every part of his life, such that even his dried bones still raised the dead, long after he had died. I have seen some anointed individuals build thriving ministries, but upon closer inspection of their lives, you will discover that other aspects of their lives are not experiencing the same level of growth. This ought not to be so.
Beloved, if you get anointed by God in one area of your life, and you notice that another area of your life is not flourishing as it should, please ask God for an all-round anointing that will permeate every area of your life. Do not be satisfied with being anointed in just one area of your life; seek that God's anointing should permeate all areas of your life.
Many years ago, a man invited me to his home in Houston, Texas. After I left, he sat in the chair I occupied during my visit and prayed. Within a few days, he received the miracle he asked God for when he prayed. He told his friends what happened, and they all began to come to his house to sit on the same chair and pray. When they all received the miracles they asked God for, news spread quickly, and many more people began to visit the man's home. The man became frustrated by the crowd of people, so he took the chair into his bedroom and placed an identical chair in its place. He thought that people would stop coming when they pray and do not receive any miracles. However, people continued to troop into his home, praying and receiving miracles. What the man didn't know was that the anointing did not stop on the chair; it went right into the floor the chair was on.
Beloved, seek to be anointed by God and ask that the anointing should permeate every area of your life, in Jesus' name.
PRAYER POINT:
Father, please let the anointing permeate every area of my life, in Jesus' name.

HYMN 24 - I WANT TO BE LIKE JESUS
1. I want to be like Jesus,
So lowly and so meek; For no one mark'd an angry word, That ever heard Him speak.
2. I want to be like Jesus,
So frequently in prayer; Alone upon the mountain top,
He met his Father there.
3. I want to be like Jesus,
I never, never find That He, though persecuted was to anyone unkind.
4. I want to be like Jesus,
Engaged in doing good; So that of me it may be said
"He hath done what he could."
5. I want to be like Jesus,
Who sweetly said to all, "Let little children come to Me;" I would obey the call.
6. But oh I'm not like Jesus,
As anyone may see; o gentle Saviour, send Thy grace, And make me like to Thee.
God bless you as you share.
