09 Jun The Lionic Anointing

THE LIONIC ANOINTING!

As we get closer to the last days of the end-times period, and are at the peak of prophetic operations, we are entering into an Era of the Lionic Anointing; This represents the operations of the Spirit manifesting via the kingly anointing of the Lion. As a king, the lion rules over all other animals and His call comes with an authority and power to reign with dominion.

Prov.30:30 A lion which is strongest among beasts, and turneth not away for any

This Lion here refers to the Lion of the tribe of Judah; Our Lord Jesus Christ Himself ; He is the Alpha(beginning) and Omega(the End); The head of the Church who holds the keys to life and death. God has made us kings (lions) and priests (intercessor, prophetic), hence there is an increase in these days the operations of the Apostolic and Prophetic offices. We are particularly entering into a season of authority of the Lion where the apostolic anointing will be more prominent in the Body of Christ. Rise up brethren with boldness. The power to reign over all enemies is released as we exercise our authority over the kingdom of darkness.

Micah 5:8. And the remnant of Jacob shall be among the Gentiles in the midst of many people as a lion among the beasts of the forest, as a young lion among the flocks of sheep: who, if he go through, both treadeth down, and teareth in pieces, and none can deliver.

There is coming a roaring of the Lion of the tribe of Judah. When the Lion roars, the earth and the heavens are shaken, but the righteous would stand bold and secured in His hands. There comes in judgment, and all that not grounded in the foundation of the Messiah, begins to crumble.

Characteristics of a Lion;

A lion is a brave creature; bold, and unafraid of anything or anyone. The Lion is a strong creature, not scared of any other being, so the Lord wants us to rise up like lions and lionesses, with a conquering spirit of boldness.

Amos 3:8. A lion has roared! Who will not fear? The Lord God has spoken! Who can but prophesy.

Proverbs 28:1 The wicked flee when no one pursues, But the righteous are bold as a lion.

Hosea 11:10 “They shall walk after the lord. He will roar like a lion.
When He roars, Then His sons shall come trembling from the west.

A lion is protective in nature- as lions we stand as watchmen over the Body of Christ, ready to prey on the evil one when he trespasses.

Isaiah 21:8. Then he cried, “A lion, my Lord! I stand continually on the watchtower in the daytime; I have sat at my post every night.

Hosea 5:14. For I will be like a lion to Ephraim, And like a young lion to the house of Judah. I, even I, will tear them and go away; I will take them away, and no one shall rescue.

A lion is willing to fight; He’s a fighter and a Leader over other beasts.

Isaiah 31:4. For thus the lord has spoken to me: “As a lion roars, And a young lion over his prey (When a multitude of shepherds is summoned against him, He will not be afraid of their voice Nor be disturbed by their noise), So the lord of hosts will come down To fight for Mount Zion and for its hill.

Numbers 23:24. Look, a people rises like a lioness, And lifts itself up like a lion; It shall not lie down until it devours the prey, And drinks the blood of the slain.

Proverbs 20:2. The wrath of a king is like the roaring of a lion; Whoever provokes him to anger sins against his own life.

A Lion is a hunter.

Amos 3:4. Will a lion roar in the forest, when he has no prey? Will a young lion cry out of his den, if he has caught nothing.

The roaring of the Lion is not in vain. There is a reason why the Lion roars: The Lord is arisen to fight for His Bride (the church).
Proverbs 19:12 The king’s wrath is like the roaring of a lion, But his favor is like dew on the grass.
Amos 1:2. And he said, The Lord will roar from Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem; and the habitations of the shepherds shall mourn, and the top of Carmel shall wither.

The Lion of the tribe of Judah is about to roar, and His judgment will be released against all unrighteousness and sin. He will vindicate the righteous who are a people rising up with a spirit of boldness ready to exercise their authority over the enemy and his cohorts.

Revelation 5:5. But one of the elders said to me, “Do not weep. Behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has prevailed to open the scroll and to loose its seven seals.

Joel 3:16. The Lord also shall roar out of Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem; and the heavens and the earth shall shake: but the Lord will be the hope of his people, and the strength of the children of Israel.
