In accordance to scripture, the anointing pertains to the sacred, to the Divine and to things or persons consecrated or devoted to God. The anointing is no toy to play with or something to be used for one’s selfish benefit or self gratification.

“And a voice spoke to him again a second time, ‘What God has cleansed you must not call common.’” Acts 10:15

The issue in this verse is the Lord revealing to Peter that the Lord had made a way for the Gentiles to be saved. But the principle is that we must not treat as common what the Lord as decreed or made holy. Therefore, we must hold the anointing of the Holy Spirit in holiness, in the fear of God and in humility.

But there is more than one anointing. According to scripture that are differences in the anointing, as pertaining to the work of the Holy Spirit. The different operations of the anointing is: The Priestly Anointing, the Kingly Anointing, the Anointing of Suffering, the Anointing of Wisdom, the Anointing of Freedom, The Prophetic Anointing, the Giving Anointing, and the Anointing of Healing.
