| Anointed Musicians |

We often hear the phase "That musician is anointed!". How many of us can actually define what the word anoint means? Let me help you with this one. Anoint: 1 : to smear or rub with oil or an oily substance 2 a : to apply oil to as a sacred rite especially for consecration b : to choose by or as if by divine election; also : to designate as if by a ritual.
Ah hah! Therefore, let us not confuse pretty chord changes that move the audience and cause them to shout, cry or any other type of emotion that one may see in church with the anointing of God. When one lives a consecrated lifestyle, meaning a person has set themselve apart for a sacred purpose God will then anoint that person and they will have an effective ministry. That goes for the Pastor all the way to the one who sweeps the floor. Amen! |
