David’s Anointing Helps Us Understand Christ’s Anointing and Our Own

David’s anointing helps us understand Christ’s anointing and our own. David was set aside to be a king, Jesus was set aside to begin his public ministry, and you were set aside to be a priest in the priesthood of all believers. You are chosen by God's judgment, not mankind's judgment, just like David and Jesus were both chosen according to God's judgment. And, just like David might not have understood it, you might not have understood it at first, but you still received the Holy Spirit, and God is still working for you through your baptism.
