A new awareness of His presence, fresh revelation and understanding of what He is doing in and through you. A fresh anointing will be released over you. Then, in due time, God will begin to pour oil over you. The aim is to ‘load up’ your spirit with fresh Word and deeper intimacy. The aim is to get a fresh revelation of Jesus in your spirit. This is not the aim of this part of the process. Instead of simply immersing ourselves in Jesus, the Word – we want to work out what is happening and try to figure out the future and what God is doing. This is a very important part of the process and too often we miss or confuse this step. This includes studying out scripture on a new level and also being with the Word, that is Jesus. We need to really soak ourselves afresh in the Word of God. Choosing to let go of the old is the first step and I discussed this more fully in the last post. Then we need to be submerged in the water of the Word. And the first thing to do in a transition is accept that God is wanting to bring change. Once all the wine of the last season has been poured out, we enter into a season of transition. I believe that God follows a similar process when renewing our ‘wineskin’. Then, it has oiled poured onto it and the oil is massaged into the leather to renew it and make it pliable again. The wineskin needs to be submerged in water for a period of time. Once a wineskin has been emptied of all the old wine, it becomes dry, hard and brittle. How do we become new wineskins? Let’s start by looking at the physical process of renewing a wineskin.
