7 Reasons Anointing Oil From The Holy Land Of Israel Belongs In Every Christian Home

Last updated October 12, 2026

1. The Heaviness In Your Home Didn't Come From Nowhere

You feel it the second you walk in. The same argument in the same kitchen. A tension nobody can explain.

You've been told it's stress. Scripture calls it something else: "we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers" (Ephesians 6:12).

Your church tells you to pray over your home. It rarely tells you how God Himself set a place apart.

He didn't just hope. He told Moses to take the anointing oil and anoint the dwelling and everything in it, "and it shall be holy" (Exodus 40:9).

2. The Exact Place God Told His People To Start

Every guest, every worry and every argument comes in through one place: the door.

That's why God told His people to put His words "upon the posts of thy house, and on thy gates" (Deuteronomy 6:9). In Jerusalem, that verse is still kept on doorframes today.

Your church tells you to pray. It rarely tells you what to say at the door.

Scripture does. A drop of oil on the frame, and Joshua's words over it: "as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD" (Joshua 24:15).

3. Darkness Was Never Told It Could Stay. It Was Told Whose Name To Answer To.

When a child points at the corner of a dark room, most of us say "it's just a dream" and turn on a night-light.

God didn't call the night imaginary. He promised, "Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night" (Psalm 91:5).

When Jesus sent out His disciples, Scripture records that "they cast out many devils, and anointed with oil many that were sick" (Mark 6:13). And James says the anointing is done "in the name of the Lord" (James 5:14).

Not your name. His. That's why believers anoint the child's doorframe at bedtime and speak Psalm 4:8 over the room.

4. Anointing Was Never Only For The Pastor. God Gave It To You.

Many women pray over their homes for years and feel nothing. They decide the problem is them.

But most were taught that anointing belongs to the pastor, so they were never given the act Scripture pairs with prayer.

"Christ" isn't Jesus's last name. It means the Anointed One (Luke 4:18). When Samuel poured oil over David, "the Spirit of the LORD came upon David from that day forward" (1 Samuel 16:13). And James told every believer to "pray one for another" (James 5:16).

It was never only for kings and priests. It's your house. You're allowed.

5. Proof It's The Oil Scripture Describes

Your instinct to use olive oil was right. The holy anointing oil had olive oil in it too.

But God didn't stop at oil. He gave Moses a recipe, "principal spices, of pure myrrh five hundred shekels," and called it "an holy anointing oil" (Exodus 30:23-25). The spices set it apart. Pantry oil is only the base.

And Scripture names the place. The bride sings of "the vineyards of Engedi" (Song of Solomon 1:14). David hid "in strong holds at Engedi" (1 Samuel 23:29). Ezekiel saw fishers standing "from Engedi" by the healed waters (Ezekiel 47:10).

That's where Ein Gedi takes its name. For 34 years they have made anointing oil in the Holy Land of Israel, and more than 900,000 families trust them.

Their set holds the three oils of the Bible: Myrrh, the first spice in God's recipe; Frankincense, the gift laid before Jesus (Matthew 2:11); and Spikenard, the oil Mary broke over Him until "The house was filled with the odour of the ointment" (John 12:3).

6. It Doesn't Come For You. It Comes For Your House.

You can't fight every battle for the people you love. Your husband has his. Your children have theirs.

But you can make sure every door is covered, and every room they sleep in.

Don't let anyone you love fall asleep in a house that was never set apart.

"As for me and my house, we will serve the LORD" (Joshua 24:15).

7. It Doesn't Only Bless Your Home. It Blesses Others Too.

Scripture never separates blessing from giving. "It is more blessed to give than to receive" (Acts 20:35).

That's how Ein Gedi works. Giving back isn't a once-a-year campaign for them. It's built into how they run.

Every purchase helps support people with disabilities, families in need and the elderly in their community.

So the oil you use to set your home apart is also reaching someone who needs it. "He that hath a bountiful eye shall be blessed; for he giveth of his bread to the poor" (Proverbs 22:9).

You cover your house. And somewhere, another family is covered too.

What Verified Customers Say

★★★★★

My husband and I have lived in the same house for 35 years, but lately it just felt heavy. We've had some hard years - lost both our parents, kids moved away, health scares. I didn't know you could bless a home you'd been living in forever, but my sister told me about it. I anointed every doorframe and prayed over each room, asking God to renew His presence here. I don't know how else to say this, but the atmosphere changed. We sleep better. We're kinder to each other. My husband even said, 'Something feels lighter in here.' I told him what I did and he just hugged me. We both feel it.

Margaret W. · Verified buyer

★★★★★

At 65, I've been a Christian my entire life, and I can't believe I'm just now learning about biblical anointing. I almost bought cheap oil on Amazon, but something made me research first. When my Ein Gedi bottles arrived, I knew immediately it was authentic - earthy, real, not synthetic perfume. I've blessed my home, my grandchildren's photos, and my daughter's family when they visit. What I love most is knowing this is actually FROM Israel, from the Holy Land where this practice began 3,000 years ago. If you're wondering if this is biblical or just some trend - it absolutely IS biblical. James 5:14, Exodus 40:9. Don't waste your money on fake oils. This is the real thing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Isn't this superstition?

No. The oil has no power of its own, and never did. In Scripture, anointing is an act of obedience that sets something apart for God (Exodus 40:9, James 5:14). The power is His. The obedience is yours.

Isn't anointing only for pastors?

James 5:14 tells the sick to call the elders. Two verses later, James 5:16 tells every believer to "pray one for another." The disciples anointed (Mark 6:13), and the Good Samaritan, who was no priest, poured in oil with his own hands (Luke 10:34). Many believers do both: call their church and anoint at home.

Does it replace prayer or my church?

No. It goes with your prayer, the way David's anointing went with God's calling (1 Samuel 16:13).

How do I anoint my home?

Front door (myrrh): a drop on your fingertip, a small cross on the frame, and Joshua 24:15. Each room: touch the doorframe and say, "Peace be to this house" (Luke 10:5). Children's rooms (spikenard): the doorframe or bedpost at bedtime, with Psalm 4:8. Your prayer place (frankincense): your forehead before you pray, with Psalm 141:2. Many women anoint the front door weekly and the children's rooms each night.

What's in the set?

Three 10 ml bottles: Frankincense, Myrrh and Spikenard, made in the Holy Land of Israel and imported to the US.
