The anointing cannot be bought

-

While watching a telenovela recently, I noticed a scene where a character used anointed oil to pray for her troubled son. This incident reminded me of the common practice in many churches of selling anointed oils, holy water, and other products. It made me wonder if purchasing these items is all that is required to receive God's blessings, favor, and protection, why isn't everyone using them and why I wasn't participating in this practice? 

My question stems from the impression created by those selling the anointed products which is that human beings are the source of the anointing and it can be purchased for personal benefit. However, the truth is that God is the source of anointing, and it is intended to manifest His glory rather than solely benefit individuals.

The anointing is evidence of God's presence on Earth, it is activated to silence the voices of God’s enemies to amplify His voice. This process enables God to heal spiritual blindness and reveal the powerlessness of religious rituals. When the religious rituals are demonstrated to be powerless many people are drawn into a relationship with God and experience the transformative power of his presence. 

Therefore I do not need anointing oils, holy water or any other products to attract God’s blessings, favors and protection because the anointing was bestowed upon me when I accepted the invitation to enter into His Kingdom. It is not primarily for my personal benefit but rather for the expansion of God's Kingdom on earth and it is activated when I align my life with the precepts revealed in the Kingdom of God.


LIFE LESSON: Anointing is a tangible manifestation that provides evidence of His power.

Personal desire can be an obstacle to my destiny.

LIFE LESSON: Prayer is not a means to satisfy my personal desires; rather, it is to align with divine providence. In a recent discussion with a friend who attends a denominational church, he expressed that God fulfills all his prayers. Upon further exploration, it became apparent that he perceived God as a granter of his desires. This perspective contrasts with my experience in the Kingdom of God, where my prayers are also answered, but the responses are YES, NO or NOT NOW.. My prayers are not always met with a "YES." The Creator comprehends that my human desires alone, without his divine guidance, will never lead me to true fulfillment (Proverbs 27:20) . God prioritizes intimacy with me but some of my desires, unbeknownst to me, could hinder that intimate relationship (Luke 17:22) . I was invited into the Kingdom of God to become a vessel through which His plans on earth are realized. However, living solely for human desires prevents me from being who he has created me to be

Imbalance is the way to true destiny

LIFE LESSON: The journey to true destiny begins when the balancing scales of life tip too heavily towards the intangible realm of spirituality, rather than the tangible and practical aspects of life. When I started my journey of faith, some in my social circles accused me of being too spiritual, urging me to seek a balance between spirituality and worldly concerns. This view persisted even when I sought guidance from experienced fellow travelers on my faith journey, leaving me discouraged and questioning my path.Despite all my efforts I found balancing the spiritual and natural realms inherently incompatible. However, I later discovered a profound truth that shifted my perspective. Rather than being an obstacle, being excessively spiritual is precisely the imbalance required for alignment with the God of the Bible. Pursuing a balance between my natural and spiritual realities hinders my progress toward God's plans. True closeness to God demands the replacement of selfish desires ro

TESTIMONY : Dont pray hard, pray consistently

Recently while searching for accommodation I went through 3 deals which all fell through at the last minute. After the 3rd deal fell through a friend asked me whether I have been praying and I said yes, and she advised me to pray harder. Pray hard is a phrase we commonly use, I have used this phrase or thought of it because of the belief that the harder I pray the more likely that God will fulfill my expectations. This belief is based on the assumption that God exists to fulfill my plans but in truth I exist to fulfill God’s plan on the earth. A plan that is meant to impact the lives of others and benefit me. No is also an answer  On the 4th attempt to find accommodation a deal was finally sealed. It is not in the location I would have personally chosen but a deal was finalized nevertheless When the other 3 deals fell through I really thought God was not hearing me or he had deserted me and truth be told I felt guilty because I thought I did not pray hard enough. Even though I was feel
