a "dose" of the anointing power of God.

Satan may hinder, but cannot overcome someone who continues resisting him. Believe that you received when you prayed and continue to apply the power of God. ***

What must we do to gain the promise of Eternal Glory which the Lord God has laid up for you?
An example is found in:
The Blind Man at Bethsaida - Mark 8:
22 When they arrived at Bethesda, some people brought a blind man and begged Jesus to touch him.
23 So He took the blind man by the hand and led him out of the village. Then He spit on the man’s eyes and placed His hands on him. “Can you see anything? He asked.
24 The man looked up and said, “I can see the people, but they look like trees walking around. After that he put his hands again upon his eyes, and made him look up: and he was restored, and saw every man clearly."
found in both: MATTHEW 7:7-11; MARK 8:22-25
It was very unusual for Jesus to inquire about the results of His ministry as He did in verse 23. It was even more unusual that Jesus laid hands on this man a second time. This is the only example in the New Testament where Jesus had to minister to any need more than once to affect a total healing.
Many people request things from God and then look at their circumstances to see if God answered their prayer. That is walking by sight and not by faith.
If they can't "see" God's answer, then they pray again asking for the same thing.
This is not the way Jesus taught us to pray and receive.
We can be certain that Jesus didn't lay hands on this man a second time because He thought His Father hadn't heard Him the first the time. Since the man received partial sight, it is evident that God's healing power was at work in him.
Jesus was not petitioning His Father again for healing.
Through His spirit, Jesus knew that unbelief was hindering a perfect manifestation of God's power in this man, and He simply gave him another "dose" of the anointing power of God.

Satan may hinder, but cannot overcome someone who continues resisting him. Believe that you received when you prayed and continue to apply the power of God.
Press on in such a degree that you can confront anything that is contrary to what you have asked and overcome it. Perseverance in prayer is the key to overcoming Satan - not God.
The main problem with mankind is we think we know it all - Which is impossible, specifically with our limited mortal mind.
Yet this has not stopped many with their " Do you know who I am " types attempting to put their limited stamp upon most of us...
** Here is part of a quote from a very powerful man in history:
Read - Think on this powerful statement from a man who knew and Wonder:
“Alexander, Caesar, Charlemagne, and I have founded empires. But on what did we rest the creations of our genius?
Upon force.
Yet Jesus Christ founded his empire upon love; and at this very hour millions of men would die for him.”
― Napoleon Bonaparte
