Psalm 141:5 NKJV
Let the righteous strike me; It shall be a kindness. And let him rebuke me; It shall be as excellent oil; Let my head not refuse it. For still my prayer is against the deeds of the wicked.
We may not think often about the oil of the Holy Spirit and the anointing in terms of rebuke and chastisement. However, one of the most vital roles of the Holy Spirit is to correct us when we are going wrong. It is a display of God's love for us.
Revelation 3:19 NKJV
As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore be zealous and repent.
The psalmist referred to chastisement and rebuke as an act of kindness and excellent oil. A wise person will never despise being corrected. If nobody can stop us from going into a ditch, our lives and work could be wasted gradually or suddenly. Thank God for the oil of correction.
