Is anointing oil biblical or scriptural?

Such questions have been posed by a large number of people. Others propose that churches nowadays are no longer focused on preaching the word of God. And all they do is smear oil on people.

When you don't know or understand something, you don't always have to beat yourself up about it. God necessitates knowledge, understanding, and wisdom.

That’s why the Bible in the book of Hosea says, "My people perish because they lack knowledge." God said that because he was aware of his people's reliance on their own observations and understanding.

His people don’t have a desire to learn, and that leads them astray. It is important to read the word of God before you perish for lack of knowledge.

People go astray these days because they judge and criticize without reading the word of God with understanding. Let us not make assumptions, but rather be accurate and informative when it comes to God's Word. You don’t have an excuse to fail into confusion. Listen, you have a Bible. You cannot be deceived or led astray by the Bible.

We have oil and anointing oil. The distinction between anointing oil and oil is that oil is used to cook, whereas anointing oil is frequently used as a symbol for the Holy Spirit. It was only used to anoint the high priest (Exodus 29:29) and the king of Israel in the Old Testament.

If you go through the Bible, you’ll realize that there are many scriptures that talk about anointing oil. Samuel was appointed by God to anoint Saul as King, and David was anointed as King by the prophet Samuel (1 Samuel 16:13).

In the new testament, it is in connection with healing for those who believed in response to the prayer of faith. Is anyone sick among you? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord, according to James 5:14.

God reveals in order to redeem

The enemy you know is less persuasive than the enemy you don’t know. In most cases, God displays himself to us in dreams or in visions. So whenever God discloses it to you. He is warning you to take a step and to act upon what he revealed. One thing you should perceive is that your enemy is not your neighbor, sister, colleagues, etc. We only have one enemy, which is the devil. Satan is very manipulative and if you aren’t prayerful enough, you’ll end up falling in to his traps. The day you’ll understand, you’ll avoid despising them.

Why You Find It Difficult to Recover Your Destiny

Have you ever felt like something precious was stolen from you—your purpose, your dreams, or even your sense of direction in life? Many people go through seasons where they feel lost, stuck, or unable to step into the future they desire. If you’ve been struggling to recover your destiny, there are often deeper reasons behind it. Let’s explore some spiritual and practical factors that might be making it hard for you to walk in your true calling, especially looking at the role of covenants and agreements. 1.

These can include: Family covenants: Sometimes ancestors made pacts for protection, wealth, or power that now affect future generations. Personal agreements: Visiting spiritual practitioners, taking part in certain rituals, or even careless words (“I’ll never succeed”) can create spiritu...

Understanding Destiny Swapping: A Hidden Agenda Over Your Purpose (PART 1)

Destiny swapping is a spiritual manipulation where one person’s divine destiny is exchanged, stolen, or traded—often without their knowledge—for another person’s benefit. It happens when dark powers, witches, false prophets, or envious individuals manipulate or hijack the divine plan God originally intended for someone’s life.
