The “spirit of might” is one of the seven spirits of God resting upon the sons of God. Isaiah spoke by THE SPIRIT in Isaiah chapter 11:
1 “And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of His roots:
2 and the spirit of the Lord shall rest upon Him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord”
The seven spirits of God rested first upon Jesus, the Head of the many-membered body of Christ, and it is from Him that all the sons of God receive this anointing. John wrote by THE SPIRIT in 1 John chapter 2:
27 But the anointing which you have received from Him abides in you, and you do not need that anyone teach you; but as the same anointing teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you will abide in Him.
The Spirit of Might which belongs to the sons of God is the Spirit of Jesus, for He upon whom the sevenfold Spirit first rested is called THE MIGHTY GOD. Isaiah revealed this Truth in chapter 9:
6 For unto us a Child is born,
Unto us a Son is given;
And the government will be upon His shoulder.
And His name will be called
Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
It is only “in Him” that one can become mighty! There is a glorious company of people, who along with Jesus the Mighty God, is termed “the Mighty.” Asaph, the song and praise leader of Israel, prophesied of this company as he wrote in Psalm 82:
1 “God standeth in the CONGREGATION OF THE MIGHTY; He judgeth among the gods.”
6 “I have said, YE ARE GODS; and all of you are THE CHILDREN OF THE MOST HIGH”
This company of “the Mighty” in whose midst God stands is none else but those who are “in Christ” who is “the Mighty God” and are thus “strong in the Lord” and “in the power of HIS MIGHT.” And the Word of the Lord through Asaph declared plainly that “the Mighty” are, every one of them, the sons of the most High, truly, the manifest sons of God.
To be included in the group known as the Remnant, we must shed the old man’s history for we are a new creation, old things past away. We must embrace the anointing the has been at least partially dormant within us. This anointing must become fully operational in us for us to walk in the spirit of might along with the other six characteristics of Christ’s anointing. Those of us who are drawn to this fullness will not be denied and so let us set our gaze on walking in this fullness. We care not about past failures and weaknesses for we will no longer be subject to the old man in any shape or form. The spirit of might is one quality we should expect as we enter into the fullness of the anointing of Christ so don’t be surprised as this spiritual quality rises up and comes forth in our words and actions.
