SERIES: OIL-ANOTHER ELEMENT DESCRIBING OUR GOD (PART 2)

Let's continue the OIL Series. 

 

A look at the New testament & OIL(Anointing) comes in  these key mentions:

 - Luke 7- Jesus encounter with Mary Magdalene. The famous story of the alabaster jar filled fragrant oil.

- In Luke 4:18, where Jesus himself was anointed for service. I declare that your set time is coming where you'll also be anointed for ministry 🙏 

-In his healing& miracles, he anointed many (John 9)

- There other mentions in Rev.6&18, Mark 16

My focus is in 2 areas:
Matthew 25,the parable of the10 virgins. It is used figuratively. The oil of the 5 wise virgins signified the Holy Spirit. This tells us of what the other 5 lacked which decided their fate. 

It is explained further in Acts 10:38, which says how God anointed Jesus with the Holy Spirit& with power as he went about doing good, healing....

Beloved, this is the highest anointing that God has given us. We're Anointed with his Spirit hence called the CHOSEN ONE. 

We are chosen to fulfil a purpose& with that we need to be  equipped constantly for this mandate. It's why through his Spirit he still anoints us with oil&other mediums to  daily fulfil this.

I END WITH THESE DECLARATIONS:
In Hebrews 1:9, he says-... HATH ANOINTED THEM WITH AN OIL OF GLADNESS.
Tonight, I pray an OIL of Gladness be released into your life to face whatever situation with joy.

In James 5:14, he asks Is anyone sick among you? Let them call the elders of the church, pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. 

For some, this is how their healing should happen. I pray that no matter that illness, as hands are laid upon you & with the flow of  that OIL in God's name; may you be HEALED.🙏

SO I SAY:
OIL IS ANOTHER ELEMENT THAT DESCRIBE OUR GOD.
