for there the Lord commanded the blessing, even life forevermore.
KJV
Isaiah
61:1-7
1
The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed me to
preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the
brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the
prison to them that are bound;
2
To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our
God; to comfort all that mourn;
3
To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes,
the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness;
that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord,
that he might be glorified.
4
And they shall build the old wastes, they shall raise up the former
desolations, and they shall repair the waste cities, the desolations of many
generations.
5
And strangers shall stand and feed your flocks, and the sons of the alien shall
be your plowmen and your vinedressers.
6
But ye shall be named the Priests of the Lord: men shall call you the Ministers
of our God: ye shall eat the riches of the Gentiles, and in their glory shall
ye boast yourselves.
7
For your shame ye shall have double; and for confusion they shall rejoice in
their portion: therefore, in their land they shall possess the double:
everlasting joy shall be unto them. KJV

upright love thee. KJV

Therefore, they shall come and sing in the height of Zion (spiritual Jerusalem,
Church), and shall flow together to the goodness of the Lord, for wheat (Word
of God, Manna), and for wine (Joy and Gladness), and for oil (Anointing), and
for the young of the flock and of the herd (spiritual meat): and their soul
shall be as a watered garden (satiated); and they shall not sorrow any more at
all.
13
Then shall the virgin (Church, Body of Christ) rejoice in the dance
(celebration, Marriage Supper of the Lamb), both young men and old together:
for I will turn their mourning into joy, and will comfort them, and make them
rejoice from their sorrow.
14
And I will satiate the soul of the priests with fatness (Anointing and
Prosperity), and my people shall be satisfied with my goodness, saith the Lord.

Ezekiel
28:14-19 (Lucifer was at one time an anointed cherub)
14
Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast
upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the
stones of fire.
15
Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till
iniquity was found in thee.
16
By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with
violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore, I will cast thee as profane out of
the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst
of the stones of fire.
17
Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom
by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee
before kings, that they may behold thee.
18
Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities, by the
iniquity of thy traffick; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of
thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in
the sight of all them that behold thee.
19
All they that know thee among the people shall be astonished at thee: thou
shalt be a terror, and never shalt thou be any more. KJV
Zechariah
4:6-14
6
Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the Lord unto
Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the
Lord of hosts.
7
Who art thou, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel thou shalt become a plain:
and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Grace,
grace unto it.
8
Moreover the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
9
The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house; his hands shall
also finish it; and thou shalt know that the Lord of hosts hath sent me unto
you.
10
For who hath despised the day of small things? for they shall rejoice, and
shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel with those seven; they are the
eyes of the Lord, which run to and fro through the whole earth.
11
Then answered I, and said unto him, What are these two olive trees upon the
right side of the candlestick and upon the left side thereof?
12
And I answered again, and said unto him, What be these two olive branches which
through the two golden pipes empty the golden oil out of themselves?
13
And he answered me and said, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my
lord.
14
Then said he, These are the two anointed ones, that stand by the Lord of the
whole earth. KJV
Matthew
25:1-13
1
Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their
lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.
2
And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.
3
They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:
4
But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.
5
While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.
6
And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out
to meet him.
7
Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.
8
And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone
out.
9
But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you:
but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.
10
And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went
in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.
11
Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.
12
But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.
13
Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of
man cometh. KJV
Matthew
26:7-12
7
There came unto him a woman having an alabaster box of very precious ointment,
and poured it on his head, as he sat at meat.
8
But when his disciples saw it, they had indignation, saying, To what purpose is
this waste?
9
For this ointment might have been sold for much, and given to the poor.
10
When Jesus understood it, he said unto them, Why trouble ye the woman? for she
hath wrought a good work upon me.
11
For ye have the poor always with you; but me ye have not always.
12
For in that she hath poured this ointment on my body, she did it for my burial.

liberty them that are bruised,
19
To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.

And he closed the book, and he gave it again to the minister, and sat down. And

and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him. KJV

But
the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not
that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things,
and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in
him. KJV
