OIL of GLADNESS

 

Psalm 45:7-8

King James Version

7 Thou lovest righteousness, 

and hatest wickedness: 

therefore God, 

thy God,

 hath anointed thee 

with the oil of gladness 

above thy fellows.

8 All thy garments smell of myrrh, 

and aloes, 

and cassia, 

out of the ivory palaces, 

whereby they have made thee glad.


As SPIRIT led me to the holy anointing oil, I came upon the intriguing phrase, "oil of gladness".

We are anointed by GOD, for our righteousness.

As can be found, in these verses.

Psalm 51:7-8

King James Version

7 Purge me with hyssop, 

and I shall be clean: 

wash me, 

and I shall be whiter than snow.

8 Make me to hear joy and gladness; 

that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice.


Proverbs 17:22

King James Version

22 A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: 

but a broken spirit drieth the bones.


Isaiah 35:1-2

King James Version

35 The wilderness and the solitary place 

shall be glad for them; 

and the desert shall rejoice, 

and blossom as the rose.

2 It shall blossom abundantly, 

and rejoice even with joy and singing: 

the glory of Lebanon shall be given unto it, 

the excellency of Carmel and Sharon, 

they shall see the glory of the Lord, 

and the excellency of our God.


Isaiah 61:3

King James Version

3 To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, 

to give unto them beauty for ashes, 

the oil of joy for mourning, 

the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; 

that they might be called trees of righteousness, 

the planting of the Lord, 

that he might be glorified.


Acts 2:38

King James Version

38 Then Peter said unto them, 

Repent, 

and be baptized every one of you 

in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, 

and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.


Acts 13:52

King James Version

52 And the disciples were filled with joy, 

and with the Holy Ghost.


1 Corinthians 8:6

King James Version

6 But to us there is but one God, 

the Father, 

of whom are all things, 

and we in him; 

and one Lord Jesus Christ, 

by whom are all things, 

and we by him.


2 Corinthians 1:21-22

King James Version

21 Now he which stablisheth us with you in Christ, 

and hath anointed us, 

is God;

22 Who hath also sealed us, 

and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.


2 Corinthians 6:10

King James Version

10 As sorrowful, yet alway rejoicing; 

as poor, yet making many rich; 

as having nothing, and yet possessing all things.


2 Corinthians 8:2

King James Version

2 How that in a great trial of affliction 

the abundance of their joy and their deep poverty 

abounded unto the riches of their liberality.


Ephesians 1:3

King James Version

3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, 

who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings 

in heavenly places in Christ:


Colossians 1:12-15

King James Version

12 Giving thanks unto the Father, 

which hath made us meet 

to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:

13 Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, 

and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:

14 In whom we have redemption through his blood, 

even the forgiveness of sins:

15 Who is the image of the invisible God, 

the firstborn of every creature:


Hebrews 1:8-9

King James Version

8 But unto the Son he saith, 

Thy throne, O God, 

is for ever and ever: 

a sceptre of righteousness 

is the sceptre of thy kingdom.

9 Thou hast loved righteousness, 

and hated iniquity; 

therefore God, 

even thy God, 

hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness 

above thy fellows.


1 John 1:4-5

King James Version

4 And these things write we unto you, 

that your joy may be full.

5 This then is the message which we have heard of him, 

and declare unto you, 

that God is light, 

and in him is no darkness at all.


1 John 2:26-29

King James Version

26 These things have I written unto you 

concerning them that seduce you.

27 But the anointing which ye have received of him 

abideth in you, 

and ye need not that any man teach you: 

but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, 

and is truth, 

and is no lie, 

and even as it hath taught you, 

ye shall abide in him.

28 And now, 

little children, 

abide in him; 

that, when he shall appear, 

we may have confidence, 

and not be ashamed before him at his coming.

29 If ye know that he is righteous, 

ye know that every one that doeth righteousness 

is born of him.
