The King’s Oil has long been used as a tool to release the power of God for healing and anointing. This specially formulated anointing oil is made from the finest ingredients mentioned in Exodus 30. The oil is harvested directly from the olive trees we plant in Israel, then formulated, bottled and shipped directly to you.
The prayer warrior in your life will love having anointing oil connected to the very land where Jesus walked, while also knowing that it supports and brings life to the land of Israel today. Further, they can visit the My Olive Tree website and learn more about this oil’s special Biblical connection!
The King’s Oil project has been co-sponsored by Perry Stone, Curt Landry, and Ron Phillips.

These beautiful handcrafted, one-of-a-kind mezuzahs are individually carved from a solid piece of Israel grown olive wood. Made exclusively for My Olive Tree, each mezuzah is carefully hand-carved with the Hebrew letter Shin, which is reflective of the name of God, ‘El Shaddai’—often translated to ‘God Almighty.’ Space is carved out on the back of each mezuzah that will hold an included paper which contains the words of Deuteronomy 6—“Hear of Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is One…”—a daily reminder when you come and go from your dwelling place that the Lord’s presence is always with you.
The word mezuzah is synonymous with doorpost. Mezuzahs are found on the doorposts of traditional Jewish homes today and are a reminder to “write the words of God on the doorposts of your house” (see Deut. 6:4-9).
Let the prayer warrior in your life go in and out of their home remembering the Word of the Lord—just as His Word rests within the body of the mezuzah, it rests in their hearts.
