THE ANOINTED ONES!

-








The term anointed in the Bible can 
mean to be "set apart". There are
several scriptures exclaiming that 
a person was God's anointed.I also
discovered during my Bible study 
that ordinary people, prophet, 
and kings can be anointed by God. 
They obeyed God and received many blessings.Anointed kings who followed God's instructions were great warriors.


Here are some of the scriptures I studied on being anointed:

LIFE LESSON:

GOD'S ANOINTED ONES ARE EXALTED!



1 SAMUEL  2:10

The adversaries of the Lord shall be broken in pieces;From heaven He will thunder against them. The Lord will 
judge the ends of the earth. “He will 
give strength to His king, And exalt the horn of His anointed.”

1 SAMUEL  12:3 & 5

3 Here I am. Witness against me before the Lord and before His anointed:

5 Then he said to them, “The Lord is witness against you, and His anointed 
is witness this day,


1 SAMUEL  16:6

So it was, when they came, that he 
looked at Eliab and said, “Surely the Lord’s anointed is before Him!”



2 SAMUEL  22:51

“He is the tower of salvation to His 
king, And shows mercy to His anointed,
To David and his descendants forevermore.”

2 KINGS  9:6

Then he arose and went into the house. And he poured the oil on his head,
and said to him, “Thus says the Lord God of Israel: ‘I have anointed you
king over the people of the Lord, over Israel.

PSALM 18:50

Great deliverance He gives to His king, 
And shows mercy to His anointed,
To David and his descendants forevermore.


PSALM 20:6

Now I know that the Lord saves His anointed; He will answer him from
His holy heaven With the saving strength of His right hand.


ISAIAH 45:1

“Thus says the Lord to His anointed, To Cyrus, whose right hand I have held— To subdue nations before him And loose the armor of kings, To open before him the double doors, So that the gates will not 
be shut:


ISAIAH 61:1

“The Spirit of the Lord God is upon Me, Because the Lord has
anointed Me To preach good tidings to the poor; He has sent
Me to heal the brokenhearted, To proclaim liberty to the captives,
And the opening of the prison to those who are bound;


LUKE 4:18

“The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, Because He has anointed Me
To preach the gospel to the poor; He 
has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, 
To proclaim liberty to the captives And recovery of sight to the blind, To set at liberty those who are oppressed.

JOHN  9:6 & 11

6 When He had said these things, He spat on the ground and made clay with the saliva; and He anointed the eyes
of the blind man with the clay.

11 He answered and said, “A Man called Jesus made clay and anointed my eyes and said to me, ‘Go to the pool of Siloam and wash.’ So I went and washed, and
I received sight.”


1 JOHN  2:20 & 27

20 But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you know all things.


27 But the anointing which you have received from Him abides in you,
and you do not need that anyone teach you; but as the same anointing
teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is not a lie, and just
as it has taught you, you will abide in Him.

DEPICTION OF ADAM & EVE WITH THEIR CHILDREN I say thank you to PBS for featuring TV shows  on researching your family tree by Heny Louis Gates, Jr.  The show was called, "Finding Your Roots". I enjoyed this show and and eventually became very good at family tree research. Genealogy was important during Bible days and the Bible book of Genesis gives us several family trees. Today I am showing Adam and Eve’s family tree. GENESIS 2: 18, 22-24 18  And the Lord God said, “ It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him. 22  Then the rib which the Lord God had taken from man He made into a woman, and He brought her to the man. 23  And Adam said: “This is now bone of my bones And flesh of my flesh; She shall be called Woman, Because she was taken out of Man.” 24  Therefore ...

DEPICTION OF JONAH RUNNING AWAY FROM THE LORD I was doing Bible study one night and it became clear to me that, Noah, Moses, Jonah, Deborah, Jael, Lydia, Seller of Purple, Rehab, The Twelve Disciples, and Paul were all CALLED by God. The Lord may require  some people to carry out a special task.There will be others that may be required to minister His Word and  travel around the world as a missionary.      This week I'll share scriptures about different men  and women that were called by the Lord. Some of these people were rebellious and did not want to answer His call.  All eventually did the Lord's will. Today, I will share scriptures which discuss that the Lord CALLED a man named Jonah.  He did not want to answer the Lord's call and ran away.  There were consequences to Jonah's actions. The Lord's will did prevail. He did go to Nineveh. JONAH 1: 1-4, 6-9, 12, 15-17 1  Now ...

DEPICTION OF RAHAB OF JERICHO I was doing Bible study one night and it became clear to me that, Noah, Moses, Jonah, Deborah, Jael, Lydia, Seller of Purple, Rehab, The Twelve Disciples, and Paul were all CALLED by God. The Lord may require  some people to carry out a special task.There will be others that may be required to minister His Word and  travel around the world as a missionary.   This week I'll share scriptures about different men  and women that were called by the Lord. Some of these people were rebellious and did not want to answer His call.  All eventually did the Lord's will. Today, I'll share scriptures which show how  a prostitute named  Rahab was used to help  Joshua's spies. Joshua, son of Nun, became  the ruler for the Israelites after Moses died. The Bible also tells us that the Lord is "not a respecter of persons"and accepts all who will respect him. It can be His will to u...
