He Anoints My Head with Oil

In the Tanakh, Psalm 23, we read King David's writings - a song, a prayer, a declaration to and about Yahweh:

Yah is my Shepherd; I lack nothing.  He makes me lie down in green pastures; He leads me to water in places of repose; He renews my life; He guides me in the right paths as befits His Name.  Though I walk through a valley of deepest darkness I fear no harm for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff comfort me.  You spread a table for me in the full view of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; my drink is abundant. Only goodness and steadfast love shall pursue me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the House of Yahweh for many long years.

Psalm 89 was written by Ethan the Ezrahite who sings about Yahweh's steadfast love.  In verse 21 it is recorded that David was anointed with Yah's Sacred Oil.  In Exodus 30:23 we discover what this Sacred Anointing Oil is and what it is used for:

The specific measurements of choice spices: myrrh, cinnamon, aromatic cane and cassia were expertly mixed with pure olive oil.  This blended oil was used to anoint the Tent of Meeting, the Ark of the Pact (Covenant), the table, utensils, lamp stand, the alter of incense,  the alter of burnt offerings and its utensils, the laver and its stand. Yah said this would consecrate them, set them apart.  Also this sacred oil was poured upon the head of Aaron consecrating him as high priest, and his sons, who would serve Yahweh as priests.  The use of this sacred anointing oil symbolized that which was anointed was devoted to the worship of the only Living God, Yahweh.

Yahweh warns not to make any oil blends by the same measurements used for the Sacred Anointing Oil:

This shall be an anointing oil sacred to Me throughout the ages. It must not be rubbed on any person's body and you must not make anything like it in the same proportions, it is sacred and to be held sacred by you. Whoever compounds it by the same measurements or puts any of it on a layman shall be cut off from his kin.

Common folk were not to be 'anointed' with this special blend of oils. It was specifically made according to Yah's Instructions to set apart His 'house' and all the 'furniture and utensils' as well as the priesthood associated with the Tent of Meeting and later the Temple built in Jerusalem. Also, when the Israelites began to be ruled by kings, those kings were anointed as such from the oil kept in the temple.

The sheep/head anointing idea folks get is about David being anointed as King which was with the Sacred Anointing Oil; none of which applies to sheep or us.  It is misleading to share memes in today's cyber world showing a sheep getting oil poured on its head to protect it from flies. I can understand the analogy being attempted but it is still misleading. David was the psalmist and his anointing was the sacred oil setting him apart as King. This oil was not used on sheep.

Quote: If you want to try oils as a fly repellent, a modern day equivalent of the types of oils used by biblical shepherds can be made by combining equal amounts of linseed oil, sulfur and tar.

Yah is our protector and our deliverer but it is through our Faith in Him that we can become anointed by His Spirit.  Yahshua was anointed by His Father's Spirit after John immersed him.  And a few years later the 12 Apostles were anointed with Yah's Spirit.  This is the same Spirit that anoints us in this day and age symbolizing our being born again of the Spirit so we now worship our Father in spirit and truth.  It seems that Sacred Anointing Oil ceased to exist after the destruction of the temple, as well as the priesthood and all other services related to the temple.  

Yah sets the pattern from the beginning:

Prior to the building of the Tent of Meeting, the mixed multitude who were set free from Egypt believed in the Word of Yahweh and obeyed His Instruction; they painted the blood of the lamb on their doorposts and lintels as a sign to God for protection and deliverance, which set them apart from everyone else; a foreshadow of 'sacred anointing oil' and anointing oil was a foreshadow of being anointed with His Spirit. Yahweh would not anoint us common folk with Oil but He will fill us with His Spirit if we accept His Instructions, just as Noah, Moses and Abraham all faithfully obeyed Yah's commands. 

Consider that “anointing with oil" established the pattern and since the death of His Son oil has been replaced by God's Holy Spirit; we become born again of the Spirit for deliverance and healing by accepting Yahshua who laid down his life for the sake of atonement in which we choose to come into covenant with our Creator.  After his death he sent us another Redeemer, the Spirit of Truth which comforts us.  This is not something to ask God about as in asking Him to 'anoint our heads with oil'.... we are not worthy of this sacred oil but the day will come when His Son sets up His Kingdom and we will see things differently.
John 16:13
But when the Spirit of Truth comes, he will guide you in all truth.  He will not speak from himself but speaks everything he hears from the Father (Yahweh).   And future things he will make known to you.
 
This is not to be confused with the term 'anoint' when one is grooming themselves or as a medical treatment or preparing a burial.

•Ruth 3:3 ~ Naomi, Ruth's mother-in-law, tells her to prepare to meet Boaz: So bathe, anoint yourself, dress up, and go down to the threshing floor.
•Matthew 6:17 ~ But whenever you fast, wash your face and anoint your head....
•Luke 10:30 ~ Yahshua is speaking a parable in regards to 'loving one's neighbor'.  A priest passed by a wounded man who was left lying on the side of the road and did nothing for him; a Levite passed by this man and did nothing; then a Samaritan man came along and had compassion on the wounded man. He bandaged and treated the wounds with wine and oil.  Besides that, he took the wounded man to an inn and paid for his upkeep, then went on his way.  He promised the innkeeper he would pay for anything else when he returned.  (This is the kind of person we consider as our neighbor) 
•Mark 16 ~ And when the Shabbat had passed, Mary of Magdala and Mary the mother of Ya'akov (James) and Shalom (Salome) bought spices that they might come to anoint him (Yahshua).
 
Yahshua is the 'Mashiach', the Hebrew  word for 'Anointed One'.  He was anointed by God's Set Apart Spirit after being immersed in the Jordan River by his cousin John.  Yahshua will be our Priest and King in the kingdom to come, when we receive our heritage: The Promised Land here on this earth.

Soylent Green in Today's World

We read in Leviticus 26 Yahweh's promise to those who follow His laws and faithfully observe His commandments.  Verse 14 begins telling us what Yahweh has in store for those who do not obey His commandments and reject His laws and spurn His rules.  Even then He gave fair warning and when that doesn't work He goes on to discipline those people even further.  If those people still do not repent, return and face Yahweh (who will forgive them if they do) and they remain hostile towards Him, He will smite them sevenfold for their sins.

What led me to this study was a news report I came across while surfing the web. It is about home grown meat = Ouroboros Steak (I about gag just writing it).

Quote: 13 November 2020
A group of American scientists and designers have developed a concept for a grow-your-own steak kit using human cells and blood.  Ouroboros Steak could be grown (by anyone) at home using their own cells, which are harvested from the inside of their cheek and fed serum derived from expired, donated blood. 

 ☣

This horrible thought just came to mind after reading that quote again...... In the beginning of this 'rona crapola many people volunteered to have their cheeks swabbed....  
😳

Leviticus 26:27

But if, despite this, you (continue to) disobey Me and remain hostile to Me, I will act against you in wrathful hostility; I will discipline you again for your sins: You shall eat the flesh of your sons and daughters.  I will destroy your cult places and cut down your incense stands and I will heap your carcasses upon your lifeless fetishes.

Begin reading at Deuteronomy 28:49 -  (I have lightly paraphrased here to apply to today's world)

A nation will come swooping down upon us, a nation whose language we do not understand (doublespeak?).  A ruthless nation that shows no regard for the old and no mercy for the young (vaccinations).  It will devour the offspring of cattle and the produce from our gardens and farms leaving no new grain, seeds or oil and the cattle and flocks will cease to exist.  We have no other natural food sources.

This New World Order will shut us up in our towns everywhere until what and who we trusted for protection is brought down.   And while we are 'held captive in our own towns' and food runs out, people will resort to cannibalism (verse 53).  This NWO, our enemy, will reduce many world wide to dire straits.

(Please read Deuteronomy 28:54 through 57 for yourselves - it's just too sickening and heartbreaking for me to share it here.). It is way to easy to see how this can happen now that we know meat is being grown from people.

🍔

 And now this:

"From Silence of the Lambs to Texas Chainsaw Massacre, with more than a hundred movies in between, even more if you count "Zombie" movies and television shows, the idea of humans eating humans has been used to horrify movie-goers for decades, but also used by movie-makers to "normalize" cannibalism in the minds of the populace.

What we never thought we would see though, is Disney making movies about the subject. Then again, since Disney went "woke" they have been promoting a number of things that are not kid friendly.

The movie "Fresh" will be released on Hulu, in what appears to be an attempt to distance Disney from its own product, but Hulu is majority-owned by Disney, with NBCUniversal holding a minority stake.  Premiering at the Sundance Film Festival, Mimi Cave’s “Fresh” is a movie about cannibalism. Yes, cannibalism, the eating of people. It’s a straight up horror film about a charming doctor, played by Sebastian Stan, who seduces women, kidnaps them, and carves out pieces of them for sale to high paying customers. Eventually, they’re all carved up and dead.

 ..... and this.....

Compost is defined as "decayed organic material used as a plant fertilizer."

No less than three states have passed laws legalizing human composting. To be as blunt as possible, it is turning the dead into compost rather than burying or cremating them. Those states are Washington State , Colorado and Oregon.

How long before the states that have approved the practice of human composting, will they take that next step and allow that "compost" to be used to grow not just plants, but food as well?

Human composting will be voluntary at first, but how long will that last? Probably about as long as voluntary euthanasia. Doctors are now performing non-voluntary euthanizations. And what comes after non-voluntary human composting? Mandatory human composting.  How long before cannibalism of recently deceased humans is legalized? After all, why waste all that good meat. Maybe we could call it Soylent Green.

All excellent questions and not out of the realm of possibility. In fact, at the rate we are seeing attempts to normalize cannibalism, it is far more likely that the next steps will include eating human beings......

Another manner of treating dead humans as nothing more than fertilizer is what they call "water cremation."  The times we are in open up into this horrible scenario.




A Link to SKYNET

 


TPTB always seem to use Hollywood to tell us about their future plans. If you don't recall, SKYNET is part of the Cyberdyne Corp., from The Terminator movie.
 
 

And now, in today's real world, Elon Musk is part of a business called Neuralink
At Neuralink we value talented and mission-driven individuals who are passionate about making a positive impact through the development of high-bandwidth brain-machine interfaces.
 

 
Add this Musk endeavor to his current and expanding Skylink string of satellites, throw in a little 5G and you've got a controllable mass of humanoids. 
 
All of this should remind us:
Don't Take The Mark or receive anything placed on or in your body that makes it possible to interface with Elon's Skylink 'sky net' of satellites.  Elon might not be the final world leader via the UN platform but he is providing the tools necessary to pull off the end times scenario.
At Neuralink they are designing neural implants that let you control a computer or mobile device anywhere you go. Micron-scale threads are inserted into areas of the brain that control movement. Each thread contains many electrodes and connects them to the implant - the Link.  I don't believe this is a one way street.... if the implanted can control devices anywhere, any device can control the implanted.
 
As a side note, Facebook's corporate name is now Meta and this is the logo:
And this is the Neuralink logo:

 
And being the researcher that I am, I see similarity in the two designs and believe they are part of the same
development of high-bandwidth brain-machine interfaces.  
 
Metaverse =  Zuckerberg wants the metaverse to ultimately encompass the rest of our reality -- connecting bits of real space here to real space there, while totally subsuming what we think of as the real world.....
"The less like humans and more like robots we can be, the more at home in the metaverse we will feel.  In short, instead of making technology more compatible with human beings, these services and experiences slowly make human beings more compatible with technology."


+=+=+=+

And now this update after E.Musk has a new position in our govt. if the Donald makes it to Jan. 20th 2025::

MEMPHIS, USA (Worthy News) – Billionaire Elon Musk has unveiled an Artificial Intelligence (AI) training center with the world’s fastest supercomputer “to understand the universe”.

Musk’s xAI Corporation completed the assembly of a mammoth AI supercomputer named “Colossus” with 100,000 graphics processing unit (GPU) cards from tech giant Nvidia.

Seen as a “beast” by critics and admirers, the computer is part of Musk’s efforts to extend AI worldwide in a move that he predicts “will soon make most jobs obsolete,” requiring a universal basic income for everyone.

Musk said his company’s mission is “to understand the universe” with a computer now believed to be faster than that used by the U.S. government.

Critics argue that the Colossus project faces environmental and resource concerns from the Memphis community.

Worthy News learned that the supercomputer’s operation is expected to consume 1.3 million gallons (nearly 5 million liters) of water daily and up to 150 megawatts of power per hour at peak times (3.6 million kilowatt-hours per day).

xAI says it is “committed to mitigating these impacts” by planning a new power substation and a gray-water processing facility.

Musk wants his operation to compete with other AI alternatives and impact how people think and communicate, including through chip implants and language tools, self-driving cars, and perhaps trips to Mars. 

(end of quoted report)

Are we seeing the beginning pieces-parts that will eventually bring the image of the beast back to life?  Are we gaining an understanding of the writings of Daniel and the book he was told to seal?

In Daniel 2:43 we can read about the kingdom referred to as iron mixed with common clay.  They shall 'intermingle' with the offspring of men but it will not hold together....

Make a note here in verse 43, "they shall intermingle with the offspring of men..." sounds an awful lot like what what was going on in the days of Noah when those divine beings left their station in heaven to defile themselves with the daughters of men. Yahshua warns us that this is similar to one of the signs prior to his return. Nebuchadnezzar was shown this future event in a dream. Who are 'they'? Non-humans? Trans-humans? Demon-spirits posing as extraterrestrials?

Metal and Humans combined (intermingled) as in Musk's new interface: "Micron-scale threads are inserted into areas of the brain that control movement. Each thread contains many electrodes and connects them to the implant - the Link."

Yahshua refers us back to Daniel, confirming his visions were for a future time.
Matthew 24:15 = And when you see the sign of uncleanness and desolation, that was spoken of by Daniel the prophet, which will stand in the Set Apart place, he that reads, let him understand.
Daniel 9:27 = During one week he will make a firm covenant with many. For half a week he will put a stop to the sacrifice and meal offering. At the corner of the altar (in the Set Apart place) will be an appalling abomination until the decreed destruction will be poured down upon this appalling thing.

The Holocaust wasn't just about the Jews

Quotes from Ariel's Exegesis


"The Nazi persecution of the physically and mentally disabled was their first step in their quest for racial purity."

The Nazi attempt to eliminate the disabled population began with the introduction of two laws on 14th July 1933:
The Law for Prevention of Progeny With Hereditary Disorders, and the Law for Prevention of Genetically Disabled Offspring. These two laws enforced sterilization for those deemed to be disabled resulting in up to 300,000 sterilizations being performed in the 1930s.
The second major step, for both the disabled community and the Nazi eugenic program, came with the ‘euthanasia’ of the Knauer child in 1939.  This case became the pretext for the development of the child euthanasia program. This program involved the recording of all births which displayed deformity or disease. These reports were sent to a centralized board which decided whether or not the child, under the age of three, shall live or be “cleaned.” Initially, the termination of chosen children was carried out by the local hospital.
 
The T4 “euthanasia” program predated what is referred to as the Holocaust by two years, but continued informally during it and disabled people were later sent to concentration camps with other groups.

The Gypsies were another group singled out for persecution, and then extermination, under the Nazi eugenic program. The Gypsies, as with the Jews and the disabled, were considered to be a threat to Nazi racial purity.

Thus, the Gypsies were sterilized under the Law for Genetically Diseased Offspring of July 14th 1933. Subsequently, the Gypsies were detained and had their citizenship revoked upon the basis of being defined as “aliens”. From 1936-1939 the Nazies ‘registered’ the Gypsy population resulting in deportation, incarceration, or to be left alone. The Gypsies were among the first to be exterminated after the commencement of the Second World War, whilst in many cases Gypsy deportation preceded Jewish deportation.  They were victims of the Holocaust, selected for sterilization, deportation and extermination on the basis of their racial threat to Aryan blood.

The Nazi attack on homosexuality began in July 14th 1933 with the introduction of the Law for Prevention of Hereditary Diseases and in November 1933 with the introduction of the Law Against Dangerous Habitual Criminals and Sexual Offenders. This situation was augmented in 1935 with the introduced sub-clause A to Paragraph 175, making homosexuality illegal. 
 
Victims of this 'ethnic cleansing' also included priests as well as communists, trade unionists, Jehovah’s Witnesses, anarchists, Poles and other Slavic peoples, blacks and resistance fighters.  Some historians claim there were 5 million besides Jewish people who were killed by the Nazi's attempt at racial purification.
Besides that ....
"Josef Mengele, the Nazi doctor at Auschwitz, was fascinated by identical twins and tortured them for horrific experiments, under the precept of furthering his research into genetics.  His procedures included unnecessary amputations, injecting chemicals into eyes to try to change eye color, and intentionally infecting one twin with disease then transfusing blood into the other to see if the second twin survived. A pathologist who worked with him has recalled Mengele personally killing 14 twins in one night, with chloroform injections to their hearts."

I agree with many that this was a time of pure evil — systematic evil, state-sponsored evil, industrialized killing, mass murders — the death camps and the people who served in these camps.  We were shown how evil man can be.

Just for comparison:
Stalin was responsible for over 40 million deaths
Mao Zedong = over 45 million deaths
HIrohito = 6 million
Lenin = 4 million
Saddam Hussein = 2 million

The Nativity Scene

We read in Luke Chapter 2 that the reason Joseph and Mary, who was pregnant, traveled from Nazareth to Bethlehem in the first place was because Augustus Caesar decided to have a census taken of all the people in his dominion.  Each man went to the city of his clan to be registered. Joseph was of the house of Ephrath (Bethlehem), least among the clans of Judah.  During their time in Bethlehem is when Mary gave birth.  Because of the census underway there were many people in town and all the usual lodging places were booked up, so she ended up laying her newborn son in a manger.  A Messenger of Yahweh appeared to the shepherds who were out that night watching over their flocks and told them about the birth of the Savior and where to find him.  The sign they were told to look for was that they would find an infant wrapped in swaddling clothes lying in a manger.  The Messenger went back up to heaven and the shepherds made haste to get to town to see this thing they were told about.  About two years go by before the 'wise men' from the east show up.
 
By reading Matthew Chapter 2 we learn of the Magi who came from the east to Jerusalem.  They ask: 
"Where is he who has been born the king of the Yehudeans? For we saw his star in the east and have come to worship him."
The Magi were astrologers/astronomers from Babylon. This class of men were originally taught by Daniel during the time of the exile and that knowledge had been passed down.  These Magi were believers in Yahweh and were aware of the prophecies telling of the birth of His Son, so when they saw 'the star' they recognized 'the sign' and traveled following this sign, bringing gifts worthy of a king, and to bring the good news back to their homeland.  Scripture does not tell us how many of these magi made the journey.
 
There are many prophecies in the Old Testament in regards to the Son of the Creator, and here are a couple that the Magi recognized: The Star and the territory of Judah.
The prophecy of Balaam, Numbers 24:
I see him, but not now; I behold him, but not near.
A star will come forth from Jacob (Israel),
and a scepter (king) will arise from Israel.
The prophecy in Micah 5:
And you, Bethlehem of Ephrath, least among the clans of Judah, 
from you one shall come forth to rule Israel for Me

Hence they began their journey from their homeland traveling west towards Jerusalem, following 'the star' to their destination: Bethlehem.
 
Herod wasn't too pleased to hear about a king being born since he was the king.  He gathered all the chief priests and scribes in Jerusalem and was asking the people where this Anointed One would be born.  They let him know it would be in Bethlehem, quoting prophecy. Afterwards he secretly met with the Magi and learned when the star first appeared to them. He let them continue to Bethlehem but asked them to carefully inquire about the boy and come back and tell him where he was. Herod lied and told them he, too, would go and worship him. During this time 'the star' was not visible but reappeared and led the Magi to Bethlehem. It stopped and was above the house where the boy was. They entered the house and saw the boy with Maryam, his mother. They rejoiced and worshipped him and offered their gifts of gold, myrrh and incense.
The magi traveled from 'the east', the area of Babylon (in modern day Iraq) and that would be around 1,000 miles east of Jerusalem. They stopped in Jerusalem asking about the 'king', and then they traveled southward, another 7 miles or so, to Bethlehem. The 'star' they had been following showed up again after their time in Jerusalem, and led them south to Bethlehem where it stopped over the house where Mary, Joseph and their boy were staying.
As for Herod finding out when the Magi first saw the 'star' (that time not precisely recorded in Scriptures) we follow the clue when Herod ordered all boys in Bethlehem and its surrounding area be killed who were two years of age and younger; he wasn't taking any chances.  This tells us the Magi first saw this star two years before they arrived in Jerusalem which means Yahshua was near two years old by the time they came to Bethlehem.  After the Magi left Bethlehem, Yahweh told Joseph in a dream to get up and take the boy and his mother to Egypt because of Herod's plan to kill the boy.  Joseph got up and fled with his family that night.

We often read in Scriptures of situations that do not fit what we know of the world (physical realm), so we must be careful not to carry our own imagination and assumptions into what is written. The 'star' seen by the Magi was a sign given by Yah (spiritual realm). What they had learned from Daniel was becoming a reality and they traveled to bear witness to this 'king' and bring the good news back to their homeland. After first seeing 'the star' they made plans and prepared for the journey, to follow the star by faith and see the boy who would become a future king.

Note: None of this describes a planetary conjunction.
 
A little research on 'stars':
•Revelation 1:20 says those particular stars are angels
•Revelation 9:1 says a star falls from heaven and is given a key
•In Matthew 2:2 the magi ask about 'the king' because they saw 'his star' rise
•In Job 38:7 we read the morning stars sing together and the angels shout for joy
 
The star that rose when Yahshua was born was an angel, a Messenger sent by Yahweh. It was the unmistakable sign the magi were waiting for.  It appeared, disappeared and returned again for the magi to see and follow.  The shepherds in the field did not see a star but an angel told them a baby wrapped in swaddling clothes would be found in a manger, that was their sign.

There was no drummer boy, no three kings; there were no three wise men nor any angels hanging around the manger when the shepherds came to witness the event.

FYI: "We Three Kings", also known as "We Three Kings of Orient Are" or "The Quest of the Magi", is a Christmas hymn that was penned by John Henry Hopkins Jr. in 1857. He was the pastor of a Church in Pennsylvania, and composed the hymn for a pageant in New York City.
