Anointing oil is a powerful tool when used by a believer. A few facts, however, need to be known about it.
• God instructed Moses on how to make it and use it. It was made of several spices and was to anoint the tent of meeting, table, all articles, lampstands, altar of incense, utensils among other areas (Ex 30:22-33)
• It was also used to anoint priests like Aaron and his sons, together with their garments (Lev 8:10-30)
• It was used alongside blood. It could be sprinkled on right finger, applied on right earlobe of the one to be cleansed, right hand thumb, big toe and the rest on the head (Lev 14:17-18)
• It was used for consecration (see the above verses)
• It was used to anoint kings. Examples are Saul and David (1 Sam 10:1, 16:13)
• olive oil, from where much of it came from, was used in lamps for lighting in the tabernacle (Lev 24:1)
• It was used in a sacred way, one could not apply on his body or make one using its formula. Punishment for this was death (Ex 30:32-33)
• It was only used by priests
• James 5:14 mentions that it could be used to anoint the sick.
• Anointing breaks the yoke/burden/connection of the enemy (Isa 10:27)
In my country, anointing oil has many times been abused where a few servants of God have been accused of selling it and at times giving it people who have not given their lives to Christ. Nevertheless, this does not mean that Christians should not use anointing oil. I have used anointing oil severally as directed by the Holy Spirit and I have experienced great breakthrough. Anointing oil should be used in prayer by God’s priests. Today’s believers are priests. Peter declares that we are a loyal priesthood (1 Pet 2:9).
Anointing oil can be used today to:
• Consecrate a church building or church instruments/utensils
• Cleanse/sanctify homes, offices, houses etc where believers are occupying or are to occupy. This breaks any previous satanic connection.
• Breaking evil connections in homes that the Devil has been previously given permission to occupy.
• Anointing gates and doors. Many times, like in Africa, the wicked will try to place wicked evil powers/witchcraft in peoples gates. Remember Moses was told to sprinkle blood on door frames so that the destroyer would not gain entry (Ex 12:7,13)
• Sanctify believers household items/ clothing if one suspects that they may have an unholy anointing.
• Anointing the sick when praying for them.
• Use as directed by the Holy Spirit.
Where do you get anointing oil? One can buy olive oil from shops or supermarket. One can also get from true servants of God.
How can I pray over the oil to use it for anointing purposes? A prayer of faith will make the oil ready for use. Consider praying like this;
Thank you father for this oil. I commit it before you in Jesus name. I sanctify it with the blood of Jesus and consecrate it for holy use in Jesus name. I release the power of the Holy Spirit upon it. Let this oil be for healing, cleansing and wherever it shall be applied, let the power of the Holy Spirit be experienced to heal, deliver, set free the oppressed, break every evil yoke and every ungodly power anointing. May your presence be evident wherever it shall be used and may you always receive all glory. May all the works of Satan be destroyed and enemies routed wherever it shall touch. In Jesus name I pray. AMEN

I truly agree with you on that, you can use any liquid that you can access. These are only symbols, the most important thing is your faith in God and in His son, Jesus Christ. Don’t put your faith in the anointing oil but rather in the Savior Jesus Christ, nothing should ever take His place, not even the anointing Oil. Remember, He is a jealous God.
I agree with you completely, you can use any safe liquid that you have access to as long as you pray for it and sanctify it. The most important thing is not the anointing oil but your faith in God and His son, Jesus Christ. Please never be tempted to allow anything to take the place of God, not even the anointing oil. Step up your faith in Christ, Amen.
Amen Lilian, be blessed

Hi Dr. Martins.
Contact me through +254 712 352 356.
I found this site during my search of anointing oil. I am a Christian, but I had backslide, and now, I am coming back to him. I have a bottle of consecrated olive oil, and I have been using lately. I do feel a difference in my surroundings. I was told that there are entities and demons that have attached themselves to me (and I have feel their presence) and I need deliverance to be made clean and whole. I have been using my oil for two days now, and I have feel lighter and I don’t feel as heavy as I would normally feel. My sleep is no longer interrupted, and I do feel better. It is my prayer, that God’s will, purpose and destiny for my life be fulfilled.
This page has inspired me a lot,,,, sometimes I do slip in faith but it keeps in coming back just because I don’t knw how to pray well when using anointing oil,,, but I still believe that God will still fight for me
The Lord will teach and guide you step by step. Psalms 32:8
Please pray for me,have stayed for many years without a permanent job,am stagnant in life with my qualifications.sometimes i feel God is far from me.Tried to pray and fast feel my life is escalating with more temptations.
God wants you victorious. Arise and take your ground. Arise at the midnight hour and make this prayer, pray it until faith is build in you. Don’t just stop until you get your job.
1. O Lord my help and my God, arise and destroy every barrier that stands against my blessings / job / destiny in Jesus name.
2. Every gate, power, door or barrier that stands against my breakthrough or at the edge of my breakthrough , be destroyed in Jesus name
3. Contend o Lord my God with those who contend against me. Lead me through the job doors you have opened for me. I thank you for your faithfulness in Christ Jesus
God will shock you sooner than you expected. Claim your blessings in Jesus name
What an awesome prayer. I can feel it’s power just writing it down. God bless you
I’m grateful that God has used you to inspire me.
This is a powerful article servant of God.i now understand the uses of annointed olive oil better.May God bless you as you continue to enlighten his people.
