The purpose for double Portion is to move one from receiving to becoming.

You can see that oil is very important. 
There is a particular type of oil called the oil of Gladness.

Oil of Gladness is available but you have to reach out to get a little for yourself (Mark 5:25-34).

Oil of gladness is available, but you need to cry for it (Mark 10:46-52).

Oil of gladness is available, but you need to practically go and get it (Mark 5:21-24,35-43).

Oil of gladness is available, and there is something better for this oil of Gladness in you to  roll away sorrow, sickness etc. But for you to be carrier of this oil of Gladness (Acts 8:5-8).

Hebrews 1:9 (KJV)  Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.

Above thy fellows means;
1) God can place you above you peers (Acts 6:1-6). Phillip excell above others.

2) (2 king 2:1-15) On the day Elisha got  double Portion of Elijah Anointing there were several sons of the prophet who knew about Elijah departure, but only Elisha is well prepared to receive that double portion.

3) (Daniel 6:1-end) The King select three presidents, but Daniel was distinguished among the other 2 president because he was a prayer warriors.

It is when you loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; that God, even thy God, will anoint you with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.

Thus if you haven't given you life to Jesus Christ or you are a backslider, come to Jesus Christ now and surrender your life to Him.
