2 Chronicles 5:11

"The priests then withdrew from the Holy Place. All the priests who were there had consecrated themselves, regardless of their divisions".

“The priests then withdrew from the Holy Place. All the priests who were there had consecrated themselves, regardless of their divisions.If you study the Old Testament, God's will was to have a nation of priests. God's will today is that every Christian is a priest. If you study how OT priests consecrated themselves, you will see they did it primarily in 2 ways. They applied the blood of a sacrifice to their right ear, their right thumb and their right big toe. They applied blood, they also applied anointing oil, (that's a type and a shadow)

The substance in the New Testament is we apply the blood of the Lamb, Jesus Christ- the justifying power of the blood - we apply the supernatural heavenly anointing oil - I want viscosity in that oil, I want lubrication, I want that glistening supernatural divine enablement of anointing because the anointing always follows the blood, wherever the blood of Jesus is applied the anointing is applied. Consecration, biblically is not pledging our promise - "I promise I won't sin again Lord, I promise, I promise....." strength of resolution, fasting for 40 days, going through external religion- that is flesh consecrating flesh! It will not go into the glory - the way we are consecrated is from heaven, through the blood of the Lamb and the fresh anointing oil”.
