In a world where materialism is king and spiritual emptiness runs rampant, it’s easy to forget the profound tools God gave us to connect with Him. One of the most overlooked, yet deeply powerful, tools is anointing oil. People talk about prayer, they talk about faith, but how often do you hear someone talk about anointing oil? Not often enough. That’s a tragedy because anointing oil is not some ancient relic of the past — it’s alive, and its power is just as potent today as it was in the days of the prophets.

Why Anointing Oil?
Let’s be clear — anointing oil is not magic. It’s not some fancy perfume that works miracles on its own. Its power comes from the God who sanctified it and commanded its use throughout the Bible. When used with faith, it becomes a point of contact between you and the Almighty, a tangible symbol of the Holy Spirit.
Remember when the prophet Samuel anointed David? "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" (1 Samuel 16:13). This wasn’t just a symbolic gesture. The act of anointing was the conduit through which God’s Spirit flowed into David, transforming him from a shepherd boy into a future king. David’s success, his favor, and his battles won started with anointing oil.This is the same oil that consecrated kings, priests, and prophets. It is a sanctifying force that can change the atmosphere, heal the sick, and break spiritual bondage. Yet, today, we treat it like a forgotten relic instead of the spiritual weapon it was meant to be. It’s time to reclaim it.
The Bible Commands It
Anointing oil isn’t just some optional accessory for the spiritually “elite.” The Bible actually commands its use. James 5:14 says, “Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord.” There it is — in plain text. Anointing oil isn’t some niche practice for televangelists or overzealous preachers; it’s biblical, and it’s a practice meant for everyday believers. For you.
When we use anointing oil, we’re stepping into a long tradition of faith stretching back to Moses, who anointed the Tabernacle and everything in it to sanctify them (Exodus 40:9). The oil wasn’t just a ritual — it signified God’s presence, holiness, and power. The oil was set apart, and everything it touched was set apart for God.
In today’s chaotic world, where people are hungry for spiritual significance, anointing oil is a physical way to tap into the supernatural. It’s a way to say, “Lord, I trust You. I am asking for Your presence, Your power, and Your healing.” Whether you’re dealing with sickness, financial struggles, emotional pain, or spiritual warfare, anointing oil can be a key to unlocking divine intervention.
