The Oil. The Anointing.

The oil

The anointing

What does it cost? It cost you sacrifices. It’s not designed to make you famous. The anointing on your life is to lead people to Jesus.

Do we even realize it’s not meant for us to keep in?

The oil we have is to pour out on others.
Your oil will get old if you never use it.
Your oil will be stale if you just keep it inside.
Every one of you has a purpose and a people you are called to reach.
If you never pour out of your oil you will never get fresh oil.
Yesterday’s oil will not do the work for today.
A one-time filling of the Holy Ghost will not sustain you during these days.
You have to fill your vessel and pour it out daily.
The enemy is on the prowl. Don’t be caught with old oil. Don’t be caught being comfortable.

Spend time in prayer
Spend time in the Word
Spend time imparting into others

Use your oil. Keep your oil fresh and full.

Matthew 25:1-13
Then the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps[a] and went to meet the bridegroom.[b] 2 Five of them were foolish, and five were wise. 3 For when the foolish took their lamps, they took no oil with them, 4 but the wise took flasks of oil with their lamps. 5 As the bridegroom was delayed, they all became drowsy and slept. 6 But at midnight there was a cry, ‘Here is the bridegroom! Come out to meet him.’ 7 Then all those virgins rose and trimmed their lamps. 8 And the foolish said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’ 9 But the wise answered, saying, ‘Since there will not be enough for us and for you, go rather to the dealers and buy for yourselves.’ 10 And while they were going to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the marriage feast, and the door was shut. 11 Afterward the other virgins came also, saying, ‘Lord, lord, open to us.’ 12 But he answered, ‘Truly, I say to you, I do not know you.’ 13 Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour.
