Tha anointing The truth about anointing!

Many books had been written on the "anointing." This generation is a blessed one. Knowledge is being increased both in secular and spiritual realms.
Nevertheless, I have met many people boasting about the anointing, but only a few who really walk in the anointing.
Fourteen years as a disciple of Jesus, I am still learning, longing and yearning to continuously walk in the anointing. One thing I have learned is that in order to walk in th anointing there is a price to pay, and it is not cheap. It is something to receive the anointing and another thing to walk in it. I pray that through this book, my best friend, the Holy Spirit will enable me to help those who have decided to pay the price. Otherwise, they will just have read another book. [All scripture references are from the NKJV unless otherwise noted.]Firstly, what does it mean to anoint, the anointing or to be anointed? There are many Hebrew and Greek words in relation to anointing. But for the sake of study, I will only mention a few.
Anoint:-Hebrew - verbMashach: To rub with oil, to consecrated and to paint. Cwk: Pronounce 'sook': To smear over.-Greek Murizoz: To apply (unguent).
The Basic meaning of the word anoint is simply to smear something on an object. Usually oil is involved, but it could be other substances such as paint or dye. This gives the idea that to anoint something or someone is an act of consecration.
-Hebrew - noun Mashyach: 'anointed one' one who is consecrated for a special office or function.
In simple terms, the anointing is the presence of the Holy Spirit being smeared upon someone. It is the overflowing life of Jesus which imparts supernatural strength enabling an individual to perform a special task or function in an office he is called and appointed to.
In ancient times, God would anoint an individual to function effectively to a particular office. For example, He would choose a person and anoint him to stand in the office of a prophet. He would choose another and anoint him to stand in the office of a priest. He would choose still another one and anoint him to stand in the office of a king.
David, God's chosen one, had the anointing of a king, a prophet and also a priest.
David as king -
"Arise, anoint him..."1 Samuel 16"12
David as prophet -
"...The spirit of the Lord spoke by me..."2 Samuel 28:2
David as priest -
"...And David built there an altar to the Lord, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings..."2 Samuel 24:25
These office were also combined in Christ the Messiah and for the spirit-filled church.
