In the Word of God I found it,
Wonderful this Word to me;
I need not man’s natural teaching,
The anointing lives in me!

I need not man’s natural teaching,
The anointing lives in me!
Yes, in my spirit now He is moving!
Yes, I have the anointing!

Making Christ experiential,
God at His pure Word I take;
As the Spirit joined unto me,
He cannot His promise break.

Based upon the blood that cleanses
So that nothing stands between,
Christ, the ointment, moves within me!
For His move I’m made so clean.

God in Christ as life in Spirit
Into my own spirit came!
He the Holy One anoints me
Till in spirit we’re the same.

He the Holy One anoints me

God in Spirit; I can touch Him;
In my spirit He’s the flow.
Deeper, wider, richer, fuller—
Oh, the very God I know!
In my spirit He’s the flow.
Deeper, wider, richer, fuller—
Oh, the very God I know!

As I heed “that same anointing”
Ever to “abide in Him,”
He is teaching, He is reaching,
Even all my heart to win.
Ever to “abide in Him,”
He is teaching, He is reaching,
Even all my heart to win.

3) Living with Man—Adam Living with Eve
Adam and Eve, being one, lived together. This portrayed that God, the universal Husband, will live with regenerated humanity forever. The universal marriage life of God and man is fully revealed in Revelation 21 . In eternity, God in Christ will be the center, reality, and life of man’s living, and man will live by God in Christ as life. Man will express God’s glory and will exercise God’s authority over the new earth. God and man, man and God will live together in a marriage life forever.
So, Genesis 1:1—2:3 is a picture of God’s purpose, and 2:4-25 is a portrait of the way to fulfill God’s purpose. These two sections may be considered as a blueprint of an architectural plan. Genesis 3 through Revelation 20 may be considered as the building process, and Revelation 21 and 22 as a photograph of the finished building.

Message 17 Section 4 (LSM)
THE CONTENT OF THE WORD
Here we must explain what human elements are. As far as content is concerned, the Bible is full of human elements. If we remove the human elements from the Bible, not much is left of it. Human elements occupy a crucial place in the word of God. For example, the book of Galatians speaks of God’s promise by referring to the story of Abraham. If we removed Abraham’s story from the Bible, we would not understand what God’s promise is. The Lord Jesus is the Lamb of God that redeems man from sin ( John 1:29 ), and the Old Testament speaks of men repeatedly offering sacrifices of bulls and goats. From Abel’s sacrifice in Genesis to the book of Leviticus with its many offerings, we find men offering sacrifices to God again and again. This is a picture of the Lord Jesus becoming the Lamb of God to propitiate for sinners. Consider the example of David in the Old Testament. He fought in battles and won. He obeyed God, and he was a man after God’s heart. He prepared materials for God’s house, and Solomon built the temple with the gold, silver, and precious stones that David had prepared. We see David, and we see Solomon. These two show how the Lord Jesus fought the battle, how He won, how He ascended, and how He was enthroned. If the story of David and Solomon were taken away, we would not be able to see the Lord Jesus fully. The Bible says that the Lord Jesus is greater than David and Solomon ( Matt. 22:43-44 ; 12:42 ). Before the Lord Jesus came, there first had to be a David and a Solomon. Otherwise, we would not see anything. Consider the example of Moses leading the Israelites out of Egypt through the wilderness. The details of this history are recorded in the Bible, including how Joshua led the Israelites into the land of Canaan and how they overcame the thirty-one kings of Canaan. If the stories of Moses and Joshua were taken away, there would be very little left of the books of Exodus, Numbers, and Joshua. If we did not have the book of Joshua, it would be hard to understand the book of Ephesians. These examples show us that human elements are present throughout the Word of God.
One characteristic of God’s word is that it is full of human elements. God’s word is not released through thin air; it is released through man. God reveals His word through man and events related to man. This makes His word simple, understandable, and comprehensible. Whenever God speaks, He speaks so that man can understand. God’s word is not merely something that God utters, but something that man can understand. It is not merely supernatural; it is also very natural. It is not merely spiritual; it is also human. Through its human composition we can understand what God is doing and, therefore, what He is saying. The book of Acts provides very little doctrine; it is primarily a record of the acts of the apostles under the leading of the Holy Spirit. Peter’s actions became part of God’s Word, and Paul’s actions also became part of God’s Word. The beginning of the church in Jerusalem became part of God’s Word, and the beginning of the churches in Samaria and the church in Antioch also became part of God’s Word. These events are not merely history; they are part of God’s Word. Through history, man acted out God’s word. By means of history, man declared God’s word. The Holy Spirit reveals God’s word through man by means of history. God’s Word is full of human elements. This is a characteristic of the Bible. It is not a book of creeds. It is a book of man acting out God’s word. When God’s speaking is being carried out, acted out, and lived out by man, we have the word of God.

Many will come to me in that day and say (I did many things FOR You... ). This hymn reveals the secret of doing things BY Him and not just for Him. "For Him" originates from our soul. "By Him" originates from the anointing in our spirit. Lord, teach me, day-by-day, to live by Your moving in our inner man.
Fremont, California, United States
Thank the Lord that the anointing is constantly moving and working within us to add the element of God into us and cause us to understand and know God’s will intimately and subjectively! Hallelujah! 😀
Irving, TX, United States
Our daily experience of the anointing, which is Christ as the life-giving Spirit, shining, speaking, saving, enlightening, is so precious, so inspiring, so caring, so intimate, making us just love our dear and precious Lord Jesus more today than yesterday!
Los Angeles, California, United States
Thank You Lord for Your Spirit as the anointing I have have received who abides and dwells in my spirit. Your anointing teaches me in all things and is true and is not a lie. You are flowing and moving, teaching and reaching me deeper, wider, richer, and fuller as I abide in You more and more!
Columbus, Ohio, United States
God in us is flowing! This is the very God I know! Lord win all my heart!
Anaheim, California, United States
The anointing lives in us!
Sutton, London, United Kingdom
Making Christ experiential. This is the goal of the Christian life. As we turn our hearts to Him and stand on His word, He anoints us and by this anointing we learn to abide in Him more and more each day. This abiding produces God's unique desire, the Church, His bride.
