Ecclesiastes 9:8 NKJV
Let your garments always be white, And let your head lack no oil.
Beloved,
Another way to ensure that your oil — that is, your anointing or grace or what works for you — is preserved is by keeping your functionality within the boundary of your oil. If your oil affords you a platform to minister to brethren, always be sensitive to the time frame allocated for the expression of the grace upon your life when ministering. Be sensitive also to the demand for the expression and operate within that limit.
You must also protect your oil from dead flies. The Bible says,
Ecclesiastes 10:1 AMPC
Dead flies cause the ointment of the perfumer to putrefy [and] send forth a vile odor; so does a little folly [in him who is valued for wisdom] outweigh wisdom and honor.
Do not allow dead flies in your oil lest it gives off offensive odor. Dead flies you must keep away from your oil include offence, folly, and wrong relationship. Keep these away that your oil may stay fresh.
You should also actively keep your oil fresh by:
- Taking time to retreat and be with the Lord, Luke 9:10 VOICE.
- Having communion of the Spirit, 2 Corinthians 13:14.
- Carrying extra oil always, Matthew 25:2-4.
- Using your oil rightly.
- Not forgetting your source, Joel 1:10.
I commend you to God and to the word of His grace.
I call you blessed. I call you NATIONS.
