The Power of Anointing: A Sacred Spiritual Practice
Anointing is one of my favorite spiritual practices, and it’s something I find incredibly
powerful. But why is anointing so potent, and what does it really mean? Let me take you on a
journey to explore this ancient and sacred tradition, and how it can transform your spiritual
life.
What is Anointing?
At its core, anointing is the practice of consecrating or setting something apart. When you set
something apart, you’re making it divine, sacred, and protected. This act is not just
symbolic—it’s a way of reclaiming something for Creator, imbuing it with spiritual
significance and protection.
When you anoint, you’re exercising an authority given to you by Creator. Whether you’re
anointing a person, a place, or an object, you’re dedicating it to something higher. You’re
saying: “This is now sacred. This is now protected.” The oil used in anointing is not just a
substance; it’s a carrier of divine energy, representing the thickness and heaviness of God’s
glory.
The Significance of Oil
Oil has been used since ancient times in spiritual practices. It represents the presence and
glory of God. Different oils serve different purposes.
When you smell these oils, you’re not just experiencing a scent; you’re engaging in a spiritual
act. The molecules of the oils interact with your spirit, creating a connection that transcends
the physical realm. Essential oils carry a frequency that activates different parts of your brain
and spirit, communicating their purpose and authority to other energies around you.
We know from ancient texts that “the leaves of the tree of life are for the healing of the
nations.” Our bodies, created in the image of God, are meant to be temples that house the
spirit of God. Essential oils, with their divine encoding, have the power to heal us at a cellular
level. Each drop of essential oil is packed with trillions of molecules, each carrying life force
and divine energy.
Unfortunately, in our modern world, we often turn to synthetic medicines that mimic the
natural compounds found in plants. While these can offer relief, they lack the divine
consciousness inherent in natural oils. Synthetic versions may trick our cells, but they do not
heal the root cause of our ailments. In contrast, the natural oils carry the
original source code needed for true healing.
Anointing in Practice
So how do you begin the practice of anointing? Start by asking God what kind of oil to use
and how to use it. You can choose from natural oils like olive, almond, coconut, or sesame
oil. It’s important to use organic oils, as they carry more of the original divine encoding.
Next, dedicate a small glass jar for your anointing oil. You may choose to add essential oils
intuitively, as you feel called. Enter into a state of gratitude and prayer, asking God to
consecrate the oil. Pray over it, declaring that everything it touches will be anointed and set
apart. You can anoint yourself, your loved ones, your home, and even your technology. Anointing is
a form of spiritual warfare, a way of exercising spiritual authority in the physical realm.
Anointing is powerful, but when combined with prayer and fasting, its effects are magnified.
Prayer is not just words—it’s a way of communicating with the spirit. Your words carry intent
and authority, and when you pray with conviction, you exercise your spiritual authority given
by Creator. Fasting, whether from food or from certain behaviors, strengthens your prayers. It’s like
adding fuel to the fire of your relationship with source, making your voice heard more
strongly in the spiritual realm.
Anointing is more than a ritual—it’s a way to connect deeply with the divine, to set apart
what is sacred, and to exercise your spiritual authority. As you anoint, pray, and fast, you’ll
find that your relationship with Creator grows stronger, and you’ll experience the
profound power of this ancient spiritual practice.
So, gather your oil, enter into prayer, and start anointing. Reclaim what is sacred and
protected, and let the divine energy flow through you, bringing healing, strength, and divine
connection into your life!
