I want to express my commitment to God which was made this day, last year, outside at YWAM Oxford, approximately 9:45 pm, having a Baptism of Anointing symbolizing my desire to give myself wholly to Him.
3 1L bottles of Olive Oil were tipped over my head, from top to bottom. To this day, the clothes I wore still reek of olive oil (I tried to get the smell out)
This post is also a response to what God has asked me to do this morning, "Remember this day" and a commitment to publish what has happened a year this day ago for another year. It will finish on the 2nd of May 2013 (according to the Jewish calendar)
By God's grace, empower me to make this known for a whole year without missing a day.
Amen

I would like to continue the story and let you know what God has done this last week.
On Monday, the 2nd of May, 2011, I, Nathan Sinclair have become wedded to Jesus. The ceremony begun at roughly 9:45pm where after a short reason for what I was doing, I was anointed with 3 litres of olive oil as a symbolic declaration of my love for Him and being betrothed to Him. These are the reasons:
1. I am entering into a year of being perfumed with fragrances. This is a commitment which will last until the 1st of May 2012 at which end, according to the scripture, I will have an audience with the King.
2. God is hotly pursuing me with desire and jealousy
3. He has done everything and His love is better than life
4. God delights in obedience, the past 3 or so weeks, He has put me out of my comfort zone to follow Him and he rewards me for my obedience. I can't go on at all without the enabling of the Holy Spirit. Everything I have is his. What a wonderful God, who counts obedience as being better than time, or money!
5. As a sign of extravagance I bought 3 bottles of olive oil from the Supermarket to pour out over my whole body, top of my head to the soles of my feet! And why not do it now? This is not something that can wait! I love Him!
