How did Jesus receive His anointing? Jesus was anointed of the Holy Spirit at His baptism in the Jordan River, marking the beginning of His public ministry. As He came up out of the water, the heavens opened and the Spirit of God descended upon Him in the form of a dove, and the Father’s voice declared, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased” (Matthew 3:16–17). This moment was not just symbolic but a divine impartation of power and authority. The Holy Spirit equipped Him to preach the gospel, heal the sick, cast out demons, and demonstrate the Kingdom of God on earth. His anointing set Him apart as the Messiah, the One chosen to fulfill God’s redemptive plan, and it was through the Spirit’s empowerment that He carried out every miracle, teaching, and act of obedience to the Father. There are also some discussions concerning when Jesus actually received His anointing. He Himself proclaimed when He came out of the desert, He entered the synagogue and read from Isaiah the prophet and this was the moment He was anointed. He said, "This day has this scripture been fulfilled in you eyes". It was after His temptation in the wilderness. Either way, at His baptism or following His temptation in the wilderness in the synagogue, He was definitely anointed of the Father. Acts 10:28 "How that Jesus of Nazareth, whom the Father anointed with the Holy Spirit and power, went about healing all that were oppressed of the devil, for God was with Him."
