Revelation of the Word:

THEME: OIL OF THE SPIRIT

1 Samuel 16:13

“So Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the presence of his brothers, and from that day on the Spirit of the Lord came powerfully upon David. Samuel then went to Ramah.”

INSIGHT

-Oil has been used in numerous occasions to represent the presence of the Holy Spirit. The used of oil as revealed are both for cosmetic and non-cosmetic needs, and diverse functions are evident. The Spirit of the Lord having departed from king Saul, came upon David powerfully once he was anointed with oil. David was led and guided by the Holy Spirit, and we find him win all his battles against his enemies and his heart drew after God’s own heart. Elisha also anointed Jehu son of Jehoshaphat king over Israel with olive oil (2 Kings 9:1-3). Let us desire to be filled with the Holy Spirit, and He will help us in all our needs and purpose.

PRAYER

Abba Father we thank You for Your gift of the Holy Spirit. May You anoint us afresh with Your Holy Spirit that we may be empowered to run our race effectively and finish our course. May You draw us closer to You and teach us Your ways. You May You fill us afresh Holy Spirit with Your gift of knowledge, wisdom and understanding, according to Your grace and merciful love that we may lead well in our areas of calling. You make us fruitful in all our work and purpose for which You have called us. May You bless the work of our hands and bless our ministries dear Holy Spirit. We believe in You and hope in You in every area of our lives. We believe that we are more than conquerors with You in all things. May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, be with us now and forevermore. Amen
