An Oily Post

"Thou anointest my head with oil."

Anointing oil contains:
Liquid Myrrh
Cinnamon
Aromatic Cane
Cassia
Olive Oil
(Ex 30:22)

This fragrant oil was to be used only in a very
particular way--but not as a perfume!

As we look back, again, at Psalm 23, we find
that David is currently experiencing the valley
of the shadow of death. He is beat, the enemy
has not yet been defeated, but God sets a table
of refreshment while anointing David's head
with oil--fragrant oil.

Reader, God comes in the midst of the trial to
bless you and let you know that you are not
alone, ever. He is your provision in the valley.
Recognize it, receive it, rejoice!
