The cross was Jesuss greatest day of purpose. The resurrection was his greatest day of victory. These days first required a day of anointing.
There was no way to gain anointing without crushing.
MARK 14:32-40 | LUKE 22: 39-46 | MATTHEW 26:36-46 (NIV) He took Peter, James and John along with him, and he began to be deeply distressed and troubled. My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death, he said to them.
MARK 14:32-40 | LUKE 22: 39-46 | MATTHEW 26:36-46 (NIV) He withdrew about a stone s throw beyond them, he fell with his face to the ground and prayed, Abba, Father, he said, everything is possible for you. If you are willing, take this cup from me; yet not my will, but yours be done.
The evidence of the faith is not the absence of pain, but the ability to pursue God s will in the midst of it.
MARK 14:32-40 | LUKE 22: 39-46 | MATTHEW 26:36-46 (NIV) An angel from heaven appeared to him and strengthened him. And being in anguish, he prayed more earnestly, and his sweat was like drops of blood falling to the ground. [After going and praying a third time] he returned to the disciples and said to them, Are you still sleeping and resting? Look, the hour has come.
God often uses our days of pressure to produce anointing for our days of purpose.
LEVI LUSKO There is perhaps nothing as powerful as when you minister in the midst of pain.
2 Corinthians 1:3-4 (MSG) Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, Who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.
2 Corinthians 1:3-4 (MSG) God comes alongside us when we go through hard times, and before you know it, he brings us alongside someone else who is going through hard times so that we can be there for that person just as God was there for us.
There is no pit so deep that He is not deeper still.
