God is joyfully shaping you to set you apart and set you free!
The beautiful concept of anointing oil has its roots with shepherds. Just like sheep can be troubled by bugs, insects, and other pesky things, shepherds pour oil on their heads, creating a slippery barrier that protects them. This act offers protection, cleanses them, and acts as a soothing antiseptic for their wounds.
The wonderful thing is that this oil comes from the joyful crushing of olives. Anointing comes from this very process! Without the crushing, there’s no oil; without the pressing, there’s no anointing.
What may feel like a struggle is actually God’s way of anointing you for something greater. He is lovingly crushing you to set you apart. It’s not a setback; it’s God preparing you for a fantastic purpose! Rejoice in the transformation and embrace the anointing!
