But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you know all things (1 John 2:20).
Every time I read this Scripture it boggles my mind! I know it’s true because I have put it to the test. I have an anointing, a deposit from the Holy Spirit, a portion of His power that He has smeared on me, and through this deposit I know all things. You see, when Jesus rose from the dead, tremendous power was used to bring Him back. It wasn’t just being raised from the dead, many had already experienced that, like Lazarus. It was the stripping off of all that He had carried to hell on His trip down: all mental disease, for example, all suicide, all deformities, all deficiencies, all sicknesses, all diseases, all germs, all viruses, all poverty, all failure, etc. which had been on all who had lived or ever would live. In other words, every single thing that the devil uses on the earth to defeat mankind was applied to the perfect body and soul of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, and He carried it so that you and I wouldn’t have to be responsible for carrying it ourselves. We were guilty and should have been made to support that burden. But He did it for us. The power that God used to pull His Son out of the muck and mire is now available to us, and we have been given the Grace to live with and know how to use that power. We know all things! How? By the Spirit of God who lives in us. Let Him be the genius who lives in you, and He will make you look like a genius!
