*WISDOM FOR TODAY.*
*ANOINTING (7).*
*Scripture Treasure.*
Psalm 92:10-11
*But my horn shalt thou exalt like the horn of an unicorn: I shall be anointed with fresh oil.*
*Mine eye also shall see my desire on mine enemies, and mine ears shall hear my desire of the wicked that rise up against me.*
*Insight and Highlight.*
Anointing installs, consecrates, protects, refreshes, renews, and makes new. Anointing oil is never old but fresh.
*Scripture Commentaries.*
The Psalmist in Psalm 92:9-11 refers to the anointing he received as fresh oil that was a divine aid that strengthened and enabled him to triumph over his enemies. The anointing he received made him rejoice that he shall not be made to suffer to perish.
Each time you are anointed, you are refreshed, made new, with a fresh beginning
Anointing renewed Saul, 1 Sam 10-6-7.
David was anointed three times. 1 Samuel 16:13; 2 Samuel 2:4; 2 Samuel 5:3
The anointing did three things in the life of David.
First, 1 Sam 16:13-14 says
*Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brethren: and the Spirit of the Lord came upon David from that day forward. So Samuel rose up, and went to Ramah.*
*But the Spirit of the Lord departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from the Lord troubled him.*
Three things were evident.
They are:
The anointing in 1 Sam 16:13-14 not only renewed David, but there was a transference of anointing for leadership.
As the Spirit of leadership left Saul, He fell on David
Second, he was anointed to serve before he led. His anointing in 1 Sam 16:13-14 brought him out of obscurity to set him up for recognition and service.
His anointing in 2 Sam 2:4 officially made him King in Judah and that of 2 Sam 5 made him King over the entire nation.
Third, he was anointed to wait for his time. The anointed should not strive.
His time will come.
Each time, David was anointed, though with the same oil, but it was fresh for certain sevice.
The more anointing you receive, the fresher you become and strengthened for service.
Do not live without the anointing with the Holy Oil.
The Holy Oil empowers.
It is fresh oil when you are anointed with it.
*Remorse corner.*
Anointing makes the old new: the sick are made whole, Jam 5:14-16.
*Call to Word action.*
Psalm 89:20-21
*I have found David my servant; with my holy oil have I anointed him:*
*With whom my hand shall be established: mine arm also shall strengthen him.*
*The Christian clarion duty.*
The Holy Oil is the oil of Jesus, the same yesterday today and forever, Heb 13:8.
*Prayer.*
Lord, let me receive anointing for freshness . I shall be anointed with fresh oil in Jesus name.
Good morning all, and have a blessed day today.
God bless you.
