The ancient practice of anointing with oils goes all the way back to the Old Testament. The anointing oil was poured over the heads of prophets, priests and kings. (We have also become priests and kings through our belief in Jesus Christ). It also was used to anoint objects, such as the sacred objects and vessels found in the Tabernacle and Temple. But no matter the reason, when we anoint with oil we are exercising our faith in a loving and all-powerful God who hears and answers our prayers.
