Weekly Pursuit – Week 3 of July
Verses:
Exo. 30:30 “And you shall anoint Aaron and his sons and sanctify them that they may serve Me as priests.”
Excerpts:
The compound ointment in Exodus 30 was used to anoint the tabernacle, all the utensils of the tabernacle, and the serving priests to make all these things holy, separated, sanctified, unto God for God’s divine purpose…The compound Spirit typified by the compound ointment is for the anointing of the things related to the worship and service of God and His serving ones. When we are under the anointing of the Spirit, we can fulfill our duty to bear responsibility for the Lord’s interest.
It is by this compound Spirit that the death of Christ is applied to us. It is by this Spirit that the resurrection of Christ is applied to us. The more we walk, live, move, act, and speak according to the spirit, the more we are in the Christian life.
Day after day and moment after moment this ointment is working, moving, acting, and speaking within us. This moving of the ointment, this anointing, teaches us concerning all things. The anointing is the working, moving, acting, and speaking of the ointment, and the ointment is the consummation of our Triune God. The Christian life is the acting, moving, working, and speak ing of the consummated God who is typified by the compound ointment. In this life both God and man are applied to us. We are a poor man, a low man, but we have an uplifted man, a man of the divine standard, in this anointing.
