The Divine Protection of Anointing Oil: 

As a mother of twins, my daily routine includes with a divine protection that brings me peace and assurance: anointing my boys with anointing oil. Every morning, before we venture out into our daily life routine, I cover them in prayer and anoint their heads with oil. It's a practice deeply ingrained in our family's life, so much so that if I forget the oil, one of my twins reminds me without fail.

Why do I do it? Because I believe in the power of divine protection. My boys need a double portion of safeguarding as they navigate through school, surrounded by children and teachers from various backgrounds. Anointing oil is one of the keys God has given us for spiritual protection, and I use it faithfully every day.

But it's not just my boys who receive this divine covering. I anoint the doorposts of our home, from the front door to every room and even the kitchen. It creates an atmosphere where God's presence can dwell, bringing peace and tranquility into our household.

Sometimes, in the stillness of the night, the Holy Spirit prompts me to anoint my husband and my twins. Without hesitation, I obey, knowing that God sees all and knows all. These simple acts of anointing are our weapons against the schemes of the devil, fortifying us against any spiritual attacks that may come our way.

Before I dive into my quiet time with God, I anoint myself as well. I anoint my mouth, praying that I will speak words of life and wisdom. I anoint my ears, asking God to silence the noise of the world so that I can hear His voice clearly. And I anoint my heart, inviting God to open it wide so that His love and truth can flow freely within me.

Scriptures from the Bible reinforce the significance of anointing oil in our spiritual lives:

1. James 5:14: "Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord."

2. Psalm 23:5: "You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows."

3. Exodus 30:25: "And you shall make of these a sacred anointing oil blended as by the perfumer; it shall be a holy anointing oil."

4. Hebrews 1:9: "You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness beyond your companions."

By incorporating anointing oil into your daily routine, you invite God's protection and presence into your life in a tangible way. It's a simple yet powerful act of faith that can bring peace, security, and spiritual strength. So I encourage you, like I encourage myself and my family, to embrace the divine protection of anointing oil and experience the transformative power of God's presence in your life.
