Title: Anointing
Text:
*INTRODUCTION:*
When one is yielded to God and relies upon the anointing of the Spirit wonderful things take place!
There is a progressive, personal sanctification that is manifested in the fruit of the Spirit.
(Gal.5:22,23)
There is the teaching of spiritual truth s that come only by the guidance and illumination of the Spirit.
(John 16:12-14).
The deep things of God can only be known by those who rely upon the teaching ministry of the Holy Spirit (I Cor.
2:9,10) The Spirit enables the believer to apply the truths of the Word of God to His or her particular situation.
The Spirit also enables the believer to properly worship and love God (John 4:24).
In addition to all the personal blessings derived from reliance upon the anointing of the Spirit, there are the blessings of the Spirit’s anointing in ministry to the entire body of Christ.
The natural and spiritual gifts one possesses for ministry are dependant upon the power of the Spirit if they are to be excercised effectively.
Jesus likened the anointing of the Spirit to Rivers of living water flowing from within the believer (Jn.
7:38) The “rivers of living water” speaks of divine energy, energy that enables the believer to serve God effectively.
One may possess great spiritual gifts and yet not be used of God if there is not a reliance upon His Anointing.
On the other hand, one may have few gifts and yet be greatly used of God because of a reliance upon the anointing.
*BACKGROUND INFORMATION:*
Anointed, /mashach/ (mah-shahch), means to anoint, to rub with oil, especialy in order to consecrate someone or something.
It appears almost 70 times, /mashach/ refers to the custom of rubbing or smearing with sacred oil to consecrate holy persons or holy things….
The most important derivative of /mashach/ is /mashiyach/ (Messiah), “anointed one, His title came to be “Jesus the Messiah.”
Messiah was translated into Greek as /christos/, thus His designation, “Jesus Christ.”
*T.S*.
This morning our focus will be a discussion of the terms: Anointing, Anointing of the Spirit, and anointing of God.
Smith's Dict.
# 323 *Anointing,*
in Holy Scripture, is either,
I. Material--with oil--or
II.
Spiritual--with the Holy Ghost
*I.
MATERIAL.*—With
Oil.
*1. **/Ordinary/*.
Anointing the body or head with oil was a
common practice with the Jews, as with other
Oriental nations.
a.
Deut 28:40; Ruth 3:3; Mica 6:15
Anointing the head with oil or ointment seems also to have been a *mark of respect* sometimes paid by a host to his guests.
b. Luke 7:46 and Psal 23:5
*2. **/Official/**.*
It was a rite of inauguration into each of the
three typical offices of the Jewish commonwealth.
a. *Prophets* were occasionally anointed to
their office,
1) 1Kin 19:16 - and were called messiahs,
or anointed.
2) 1Chr 16:22; Psal 105:15
b.
*Priests*,
1) at the first institution of the Levitical
priesthood, were all anointed to their offices, Exod 40:15; Numb 3:3
2) at the second institution anointing
seems to have been specially reserved for the high priest,
# Exod 29:29; Levi 16:32
so that "the priest that is anointed,"
# Levi 4:3 is generally thought to
mean the high priest.
c. *Kings*.
Anointing was the principal and divinely-appointed ceremony in the inauguration of the Jewish Kings.
# 1Sam 9:16; 10:1; 1Kin 1:34,39
The rite was sometimes performed more than once.
David was anointed three times.
d. *Inanimate objects* also were anointed with oil,
in token of their being set apart for religious
service.
Thus Jacob anointed a pillar at
Bethel.
# Gene 31:13; Exod 30:26-28
e. Anointing could also *signify appointment to a special office* or *function* in the purposes of God.
f.
Also in the O.T. the anointing symbolized *special endowment for* ministry to God.
Exodus 28:4-1 ~/ I Sam.9:26-10:9 ~/I Kings 1:34, 35 ~/ Is.61-3
