Every truly born-again believer has received an anointing from the Holy ONE and that anointing enables us to function and serve in the capacity for which He has designed us. The anointing is like putting a key in the ignition and starting the engine. It’s the spark that ignites the gifts. And if you say, “I’m not anointed”, then you’re calling the Holy Spirit a liar. The only way for us to truly understand the anointing is to understand WHO and WHY people are anointed in the Old Testament, and that the anointed must be appointed.

Paul tells us in 1 Corinthians 11:3 that ‘The head of every man is Christ, the head of woman is man, and the head of Christ is God.’ Basically, everyone has a covering – even Christ – whose head is the Father. So it makes a person look silly when he or she says, “I don’t need a head or a covering.” We all need a covering and to be properly covered as well.

In the second part of this message, Rev. Celia shares the key to knowing our God-given purpose. Whatever God demands of us, He already configured it into our system. One key to discovering it is to look at what we’re good at. God hid your purpose in you where you can find it, and no one can take it away.

We live out of our identity in Christ, but purpose is the reason for our existence. God created everything with intention, and when He made us, it was for Kingdom influence. Whatever He has called us to do, He has also endowed us with the gifts to perform it. 

Before God give man a job, He gave him an identity. The test is always about our identity. Jesus passed the identity test, and started preaching the Gospel of the Kingdom. God cannot trust us unless we pass the test of knowing who we truly are in Him!

The 12th chapter of the Book of Revelations describes a future war that’s coming which will not be fought on earth, but in the heavenlies. It’ll not be fought by men, but by angelic beings seeking to dominate the heavenly places. The outcome of this battle has already been decided and satan will be thrown out of heaven. But WOE to the inhabitants of the earth when that happens. What must we understand about this coming war and what are the implications to us?

The phrase ‘Magnum Opus’ means ‘Great Work’. When Jesus went to the Father, He promised that we would not only do the work He did, but greater works shall we do! What is the great work that God has called us to do? More specifically, what is the Magnum Opus of Cornerstone? Here are 7 things that makes us uniquely Cornerstone.

No other chapter in the Bible extols the wonder and importance of imbibing God’s Word in our hearts than Psalm 119. However, reading this psalm is like scaling a mountain because it’s the ‘longest chapter’ in the entire Bible and most Bible plans even split the reading over a few days. This is an invitation to ascend the mountain of Psalm 119, for precious treasures await those who answer that call.

Key moments in the Old Testament are invariably seen in the New Testament. These inter-Testament parallels are important for various reasons. Principal amongst them is that they bring depth of understanding otherwise overlooked. The Tower of Babel incident is paralleled by the Upper Room outpouring. The latter serves as the anti-thesis of the former, without which, cannot be fully understood.

Our God is an OVER-PROVIDER. Each time we find the Lord providing for His people, the provision is always overcompensated by His generosity. One of the great promises in Scripture is that ‘The blessing of the Lord makes one rich, and He adds no sorrow with it’ Proverbs 10:22. There’s really no limit to how much God can give to us, if we’re willing to believe. Cornerstone is entering into enlargement and expansion and we must prepare for it!
