The
Bible mentions at least thirty-three species of essential oils and makes more
than one thousand references to their use in maintaining wellness, acquiring
healing, enhancing spiritual worship, emotional cleansing, purification from
sin, and setting apart individuals for holy purposes.
Why
are they missing from our lives today?
[]
These
essential oils were inhaled, applied topically, and taken internally.
According
to David Stewart, Ph.D, “Seventy percent of the books in the Bible mention
essential oils, their uses, and/or the plants from which they are derived.” 30
We
are constantly learning more about essential oils, but we should consider their
immense value when we understand the importance, mentioned so many times in
Scripture, given to them by the Creator.
We
do know that essential oils have the highest ORAC scores of any substance in
the world.
The
oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) scale measures the antioxidant powers
of foods and other substances.
[]
Four
important biblical essential oils greatly outperform the highest-ranking fruits
and vegetables in existence.
For
example, one ounce of clove oil has the antioxidant capacity of 450 pounds of
carrots, 120 quarts of blueberries, or 48 gallons of beet juice.31
Essential
oils are composed of very small molecules that are able to pass through the
blood- brain barrier freely or pass through the skin and reach every part of
the body in minutes.

If
you place a drop of cinnamon or peppermint oil on the sole of your foot, you
may taste it on your tongue in less than sixty seconds.
Jordan
S. Rubin. The fourteen principle biblical essential oils I have listed below
contain three unique classes of compounds.
The
first are phenylpropanoids, which are antiviral and antibacterial; they are
able to clean and reprogram “receptor” sites in individual body cells.
The
second are sesquiterpenes, possessing a variety of healing properties and the
ability to reprogram scrambled or damaged DNA coding. And the thrid are
monoterpenes, which deliver oxygen directly to cells and possess
anticarcinogenic properties."
【Personal benefits】
[]
Perhaps
we should consider that the divine instructions for biblical anointing affected
the physical realm far more than we formerly believed.
You
may enjoy significant health benefits by utilizing essential oils for yourself,
your family, and your home. I encourage you to anoint yourself with an
essential oil and investigate these claims for yourself.
Place
a few drops of one of the biblical essential oil blends on your palm, making
several clockwise circles with your fingers. Then rub your palms together and
cup them over your nose and mouth (but make sure you avoid touching your eyes).
Deeply
inhale the aromatic vapors, then run your fingers and palms through your hair.
It
won't make your hair “oily,” but it will transform the way you feel.
[]
A
great way to use essential oils is to put five to ten drops into a warm bath.
That
is a true healing treat.
You
can also rub a few drops of these oils into the soles of your feet.
You
can even gain benefit from inhaling directly from the bottle.
If
you have small children, try applying essential oils to their stuffed animals
or to their stuffed animals or to the inside of their pillowcase each night.
The
following list is fourteen of the most useful essential oils with a brief
description of their positive effects on the body.

support the human immune system in the baffle against influenza and cold
viruses—simply inhale them or put them on the soles of your feet. (Do not apply these powerful oils to

in these areas. If irritation occurs,
apply vegetable oil immediately to "cool off" the skin.)

a cousin of cinnamon, is a potent immune system enhancer.

difference in our lives. (To locate biblical essential oils, please refer to Appendix
