Throughout the Bible the Holy Spirit is represented by oil. When we surrender to the Holy Spirit our thoughts they are refreshed. As the Spirit take control of our thoughts, those that bring stress and strife into our heart are replaced by the truth of God’s Word. By finding our identity in Jesus we no longer care what others may think of us.
Surely goodness and mercy and unfailing love shall follow me
all the days of my life,
And I shall dwell forever [throughout all my days]
in the house and in the presence of the Lord.
Finally, we can rest knowing that God’s goodness, mercy, and unfailing love is with us as long as we are here on this earth. With our forever home one day in Heaven.
