a·nointDavid knows that God has chosen him and that God is the only one who can sanctify him, cleanse him from all of his sins. In the same way, I know that God has chosen me to be adopted as his child. He knit me together in my mother's womb. He knew me before I was born. Christ alone makes me pure and holy. Like David, I must also continually seek God and cry out to him for strength.
tr.v. a·noint·ed, a·noint·ing, a·noints
- To apply oil, ointment, or a similar substance to.
- To put oil on during a religious ceremony as a sign of sanctification or consecration.
- To choose by or as if by divine intervention.
Dear Lord,
Thank you dearly for the price you paid to buy me back from my sins. I can't imagine the pain you suffered on my behalf, but I know that you can sustain me through any trials I face. Please give me the strength I need to run a worthy race and to be blameless to the end. You are my strength. You are my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; You are my rock in whom I take refuge! You are my shield and the horn (power) of my salvation. I shall not be afraid. I shall not shrink back!
