Exodus 29:20 Then shalt thou kill the ram, and take of his blood, and put it upon the tip of the right ear of Aaron, and upon the tip of the right ear of his sons, and upon the thumb of their right hand, and upon the great toe of their right foot, and sprinkle the blood upon the altar round about.

Anointing is usually done with water or oil. Here the blood of the sacrifice is used to anoint body parts. The right ear, the right thumb and the right great toe. Right is the significant power hand. Ear to hear, thumb to grasp, big toe to walk and keep balance.

Ephesians 3:20 Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,

Romans 15:13 Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost.

2 Corinthians 1:21 Now he which stablisheth us with you in Christ, and hath anointed us, is God;
