Mantles, Horns, and Anointings.


 Mantles, horns and anointings are endowments and empowerments available to us in the kingdom of God.
These gifts, endowments, and graces are blessings from the Lord and they are life changing!

John the Baptist came to the earth in the spirit of Elijah.
And the Lord Jesus, called John the Baptist the greatest of all the prophets from old.
John the Baptist had a mantle upon him, Elijah's mantle; that's why the Lord Jesus said for those who could understand it, John the Baptist was the Elijah to come.
John the Baptist was not the prophet Elijah but he came to the earth in the spirit of Elijah!
John the Baptist was born with the Holy Spirit, he had the Holy Spirit from the womb.
He had the mantle of John the Baptist upon him from birth.
No wonder he was the greatest of all the prophets, despite not performing the miraculous exploits some of the prophets from the old testament performed.

Elijah was one of the greatest prophets who ever walked this earth.
No wonder John the Baptist is regarded as great, he came in the spirit of Elijah!
That means the mantle of Elijah was upon John the Baptist!

Mantles determine what the spirit at work in you will be.
Mantles bring a positive transformation to our spirit man.
Mantles empower us spiritually with power.
When Elisha received the mantle of Elijah, he received a double portion of Elijah's spirit.
The dimension of God's Spirit John the Baptist was born with, was what was at work in John the Baptist!
John the Baptist was born with a lot of potential, he was born with more potential than most men.
He was born with a mantle many people would give an arm and a leg to get today.
No wonder John the Baptist was a burning flame in the wilderness!
No wonder people came out to the desert to see him.
He was a powerful, fiery man of God who had the right message (the message of God's kingdom) and he operated in a powerful mantle in proclaiming that message.
He was the forerunner of Jesus Christ.

Mantles are still available in the kingdom of God today.
There are mantles in Zion.
The spirit of just men made perfect, men and women who have passed on to glory but operated in unique ways of God's Spirit share fellowship with us when we show up in Zion.
In the presence of God their mantles are available!
The mantles they operated in are available to empower us on our earthly journey.
The mantles they operated in are available for our callings, assignments and responsibilities.
Mantles are of the Holy Spirit. and the Holy Spirit is manifold in His operations!

Anointings are the ways the Holy Spirit works in and through individuals.
The anointing enhances us, it is the oil of heaven that makes us function effectively in what we are gifted and called to do.
The anointing and spiritual horns have a link.

When David the shepherd was to be anointed, God instructed His prophet Samuel to anoint David with the holy anointing oil.
The instruction was to take the oil in rams oil and go to the house/family of Jesse.

Mantles are associated with spiritual garments or clothing, the anointing is associated with oil, while horns are depicted often by the rams horn.
The rams horn the prophet poured oil on David's head from is symbolic.
The oil was the anointing to go on David's head while the horn represents David's rank spiritually.
David was not only being anointed, he was also receiving spiritual horns.

Horns in the spiritual realm represent dominion, victory, power, dignity, rank and kingdom.
Horns in the spiritual realm show rank.
God gives spiritual horns, He is also the one who raises the horn of people.
The horn the anointing oil was being poured out from upon David was evidence David's rank had increased spiritually.
It had to, he was to be king and given the kingdom.

Jesus Christ is called the horn of our salvation.
So every saved person, everyone who has made Jesus Lord and Savior has a horn, the horn of salvation.
May the Lord lift our heads and our horns, may He raise our horn up like the horn of a unicorn.

Mantles, horns and anointing, they are all spiritual endowments of the kingdom of heaven.
