The first practice that Cahn encourages believers to take part in is to dedicate their first fruits to the Lord. This includes items like tithing and placing our time before the Lord as critical above all else.
“The principle of the first fruit is if you dedicate the first fruit, the rest is dedicated. If you consecrate the first fruit, the rest is holy. So, by lifting up the first fruit to God, the rest of the harvest is considered consecrated,” says Cahn.
Cahn points out that part of the first fruits of what would come from Jesus’ death and resurrection was the outpouring of the Holy Spirit on the 120 people in the upper room.
“So on that day 2,000 years ago, God lifted up 120 people and He anointed them. He poured out His Spirit on them and they spoke in other tongues…they were speaking the tongues of the nations. Everybody heard them in their own language,” says Cahn.
“So the first fruit determines everything else. Consecrates, makes holy, everything else. The first fruit represents the rest, determines the rest,” he continues.
Cahn explains that one practice Christians should keep in mind is to ordain our days for the purposes of God.
“Your days are to be ordained to bring you to that calling, to that purpose,” says Cahn. “They’re not just going to be lazy and sit there, your days are going to be ordained to minister.”
The anointing of God is also be understood, cherished and respected. The word ‘Christ’ itself, as Cahn points out, translates to Messiah, the anointed one.
“It is the anointing of God’s Spirit, the conferring of God’s power, of His authority, of His ability, specifically to accomplish the calling,” says Cahn. “If you are of the anointed one, you must live an anointed life. You are called to live an anointed life.”
We must accept and walk in the power of God through the Holy Spirit to accomplish each and every thing He desires for us to do.
“What hindrances are you dealing with? In His anointing, He will break it. What bondages are you dealing with? It says the anointing breaks the chains. The anointing is to break the bondage.”
