Psalm 92:10 (KJV) ~ “But my horn shalt thou exalt like the horn of a unicorn: I shall be anointed with fresh oil.”
The Lord says, “In this hour, I am not looking for those who simply carry oil, I am raising up those who produce it under pressure.” Just like bacon in a skillet, when the heat is turned up, it doesn’t dry up, it releases oil. It carries something within that only fire can reveal. The Lord says, “You will be like that bacon, able to endure the sizzle of trials, the heat of adversity, and the fire of testing, and still release what I’ve hidden inside you.”
Life has a way of turning up the heat when you least expect it. The fire of frustration, the pressure of responsibility, and the flames of spiritual warfare can surround you, making you question whether you’ll survive. But what if the heat wasn’t your enemy? What if it was the very condition God was using to extract the anointing that’s been buried deep within you?
The first thing you notice when bacon hits the pan is the sound, the unmistakable sizzle. It’s the sound of transformation. The heat doesn’t just sit there; it starts to pull something out of what’s been hidden. It draws out the oil, and what was dry and unnoticeable suddenly becomes fragrant, flavorful, and usable. This is exactly what the Lord desires to do in you. Just like bacon, you are full of purpose, but pressure is the activator. Pressure is not sent to destroy your destiny; it’s designed to reveal it.
Fire is not always a punishment; in the hands of a Master Chef, it’s preparation. The anointing that flows from your life is not supposed to be secondhand. It should come from deep encounters with God, in prayer, in process, and yes, even in pain. It’s not that you carry something someone else gave you. It’s that God planted it in you, and fire simply brings it to the surface. Many want the crown but reject the crushing. They want elevation but resist extraction. Yet the Lord is raising a remnant who will not break under pressure but burst forth with oil.
Psalm 92:10 speaks of being anointed with fresh oil. This is not oil that’s been passed down without cost. It’s fresh, meaning it’s pressed, it’s current, and it’s necessary for today. You were created to release fresh oil, when things get hot. Fresh oil represents a renewed touch, a present empowerment, and a divine refreshing to complete what God has assigned to your hands. It does not come from coasting; it comes from consecration and crushing.
If you’re feeling the heat right now, whether in your health, finances, relationships, or spiritual life, don’t assume it’s an attack. It may be the evidence that oil is being drawn out. The very thing you’re asking God to remove might be the very thing He’s using to release your oil. In the heat, your worship deepens. In the fire, your prayers become raw. In the trial, your faith becomes authentic. This is not just pressure, it’s production.
And here’s the secret, bacon never asks to be put in the pan, but once it’s there, it fulfills its purpose, and it was not offended by the fire. Fresh oil is coming, not because you asked for ease, but because you endured the sizzle. Your trials were not in vain; they were oil-producing furnaces. What the enemy meant to burn you will only bless you, because what’s inside of you was designed to come forth under fire. You produce oil when you pray instead of panic! You release power when you praise instead of complaining!
There is oil in your “yes” to God. There is oil in your tears. There is oil in your obedience. There is oil in the midnight press. God is not raising up spiritual performers; He is raising up surrendered producers. The oil that is being pulled from your life will not just preserve you; but it will mark you as a vessel of healing, wisdom, and glory. And your anointing will not only bless you, but it will also impact everything and everyone that is around you! You will carry a scent that reveals you’ve been with God. Not just in the sanctuary, but in the skillet (the fire)!
Let’s Pray:
Father, I thank You for the revelation that I was never called to break under pressure, but to bloom in it. Thank You that I carry something within me that trials cannot take, an anointing that You placed inside me for such a time as this. Lord, I repent for every time I tried to run from the heat. Forgive me for despising the process and questioning Your presence in the fire. You were there all along, using the flames to bring forth the fragrance. God, today I yield. I place my life back in the skillet of Your will. Let every trial work together for Your glory. Let every ounce of pressure produce something eternal in me. I don’t want to just be someone who borrows oil from others, I want to be a vessel that flows with my own. Saturate my spirit. Soften my heart. Purify my motives. Transform me into someone who not only survives storms but releases oil in the midst of them. Father, I declare that the heat will not burn me, it will birth something beautiful. Let Your hand rest on me like never before. Let my oil be a sign that I’ve been in the fire with You and came out carrying more than I went in with. I don’t just want comfort, I want consecration. I don’t just want ease, I want endurance. Father, I don’t just want platforms, I want purity. Lord, make me usable for Your glory. Father, use my life, my scars, my battles, my breakthroughs, and let every drop of oil that flows be a testimony of Your faithfulness to me. Father, I surrender again. I yield again. I say “yes” again. And I ask Your, Holy Spirit to pour fresh oil on me. In Jesus Christ Mighty and Matchless Name, I pray, Amen!
Blessings…
