This is my first time reading a book written by Samuel Rodríguez. I received "Fresh Oil, Holy Fire, New Wine" for free from TBN and I was anxious to read it. (Though I received a complimentary copy, it in no way influenced my opinion of the book).
"Because you are anointed by the Holy Spirit and abide in His power, God works through you to change the world" (pg. 174).
The Foreword is written by Jentezen Franklin.
At the end of every chapter are questions to answer and to reflect as well as a Prayer.
"The Holy Spirit is your GPS who guides you" (pg. 198).
The author shares his Pentecostal beliefs.
"You are no longer waiting for a miracle- there's a miracle waiting for you!" (pg.158).
▶Part One. Head: Informed by the Spirit
▶Part Two. Heart: Inspired by the Spirit
▶Part Three. Hand: Imparted by the Spirit
"Still today, there is nothing more powerful than, "Thus saith the Lord!" (pg. 131).
The author shares personal experiences, an abundance of bible verses, historical accounts, pop culture references, and he dives into the details and often coincidental (or similar) moments found in Scripture. He shares who the Holy Spirit is and what He is *not* (pg. 105).
"The Spirit of God is always at work- in us, through us, around us, beyond us" (pg. 111).
Samuel Rodríguez tells us to... Wait for Your Suddenly (pg. 80), to Sing a New Song (pg. 102) and to choose Peace and not Panic (pg. 118).
"Your only answer can be Jesus" (pg. 115).
▶ Fresh Oil. An anointing oil which symbolizes God's presence, power and purpose on people and places set apart as holy and chosen (pg. 21).
▶ Holy Fire. The unlimited, unquenchable power of the Holy Spirit (pg. 24).
▶ New Wine, New Life (pg. 171).

“Fresh Oil, Holy Fire, New Wine” is an inspiring read that dives deeply into the spiritual dynamics of living a victorious life through the power of the Holy Spirit. The book is transformative, offering fresh insight into what it means to walk in God’s promises with a renewed understanding of faith, praise, and action.
What stood out to me personally is how it encourages believers to offer God unconditional praise, regardless of the season of life they’re in. This perspective shifts focus away from circumstances and emphasizes the importance of staying grounded in faith. The book opened my understanding of how to practically live in victory—right now—by acting on the promises of God, even when faced with challenges.
Its message encourages believers to remain steadfast, standing on God’s promises and showing faithfulness through their praise. This aligns with the theme of trusting God fully, not just when things are going well but in every situation. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking to deepen their walk with God and activate their faith for real, daily victories.

February 26, 2026Overall, this book was sound. But didn’t help take me much deeper in my faith and wasn’t all that thought provoking for where I am at.
One thing I would approach with caution is the topic of supernatural healing- not because I don’t believe God can do it. But because when supernatural healing is talked about from the lens of your personal faith, when you don’t see healing; the way that translates is damaging. The author talked about supernatural healing with such simplicity, “if you believe, get ready to see healing in health, family, finances, addiction, etc.” believing in healing is complex because what happens when the healing doesn’t happen?
I thought this section was poorly articulated and if I ran with the advice the author gives and didn’t see healing- it would directly translate to “I didn’t have enough faith”. And I’m just not under the impression that is how God works.
