The origin of anointing was from a practice of shepherds. Lice and other insects would
often get into the wool of sheep, they burrow into the sheep’s ears, then proceed to kill
the sheep, so ancient shepherds poured oil on the sheep’s head making it impossible for insects as they would slide off. From this simple act, anointing became symbolic of
blessing, protection and empowerment.
Anoint means to smear or rub with oil, to consecrate for office or religious service.
People were anointed with oil to signify God’s blessing or call on that person’s life.
A person was anointed for a special purpose, to be a King, Prophet, priest. Today we
anoint people with oil so long as it agrees with scripture, anointing is not a magic
portion, the oil itself does not have any power, it is only God who can anoint a
person for a purpose, the oil is only a symbol.
That is how we are here today, God’s Holy one touched every one of you who is a
Christian with an anointing, (the sight giving salve of the Spirit), that each of you come to know the truth. The anointing that you received from Him abides in you and you have
no need that anyone should teach you as His anointing teaches you about everything
and is true, just as it has taught you, abide in Him, Truth And Spirit, we must abide in
both.
Do you realize that right now you are anointed by God, it is not just for special Christian
leaders or speakers, it is for all of us.
Every one of you who is a Christian has an anointing
from Jesus Christ.
'Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even
now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time. They went out
from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have
continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us.
But ye have unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things. I have not
written unto you because ye know not the truth, but because ye know it, and that no lie
is of the truth. Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist
that denieth the Father and the Son. Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: (but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also.
Let that therefore abide in you, which ye have heard from the beginning. If that which ye have heard from the beginning shall remain in you, ye also shall continue in the Son,
and in the Father. And this is the promise that he hath promised us, even eternal life.
These things have I written unto you concerning them that seduce you. But the
anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any
man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth,
and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.'
So, every believer has an encounter with Jesus so the oil or fragrance of the Holy
Spirit has touched us. This design inspires confidence and purpose, encouraging the
wearer to pursue their God-given mission with passion and dedication.
