RonS Posted March 5, 2005 Report Share Posted March 5, 2005 Q3. (5:14-16) In the healing prayer, what is the role of oil? Oil is like the medium for the transfer on the power of God. It is the anointing of God. In Matthew 25 the parable of the ten virgins the oil meant life or death. Five have jars of oil and five did not. The five with the jars of oil when with Jesus the other did not go. What is the role of the prayer of faith? If a prayer is the have any value it must be spoken with a belief that it will be done What is the role of faith? The person believed is Christ and confesses all sin.

kas Posted March 7, 2005 Report Share Posted March 7, 2005 It is symbolic of the anointing of the Holy Spirit and provides a stimulus for faith. The pray-er's faith is key here, their faith brings God's healing and forgiveness of sins to the sick person. To confess sin is to humble oneself and repent. By verbally confessing it to another we demonstrate our willingness to obey God and be humbled. We also are letting it go. What a load off of one's chest to confess. It must then be followed by prayer to heal. (A symbol of bandaging the wound so healing can occur). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MannyVelarde Posted March 7, 2005 Report Share Posted March 7, 2005 Q3. (5:14-16) In the healing prayer, what is the role of oil? What is the role of the prayer of faith? What is the role of faith? What is the role of confession of sins? The oil is quite frequently representative of the Holy Spirit - being poured on the person who is sick. Priests and kings were annointed in the old testament and it all seems to represent the annointing of the Holy Spirit to equip/to fill people with God's presence to accomplish an end. Such as being healed. Faith and prayer - means to act upon our belief in the triune God. To speak to HIm, to align ourselves properly with Him - - Asking, many times is for our own benefit - to help us see our sin and stumbling blocks in our lives. Confession of sins, removes the blockers that prevent God from healing us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunilbernard Posted March 8, 2005 Report Share Posted March 8, 2005 Q3. (5:14-16) In the healing prayer, what is the role of oil? What is the role of the prayer of faith? What is the role of faith? What is the role of confession of sins? Oil is a symbolic representation of the Holy Spirit. As the oil is poured out and anointed, so the Holy Spirit is poured out on the sick person and he is anointed. The oil may contain medicinal properties too, depending on its purity, but mainly, it is a symbolic representation. Prayer of faith effects the healing process. In other words, it is the starting point for the healing. It contains the deadly punch for satan to start fleeing. The role of faith is to unite the sick person, the person who prays and God. When these three are united in faith, then the work of healing starts. Confession to each other starts a chain reaction. The soul is freed from its bondage. Prayer is initiated for the forgiveness and the healing process starts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renee Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 Q3. (5:14-16) In the healing prayer, what is the role of oil? The oil isn't what is doing the healing but it is symbolic for the Holy Spirit. What is the role of the prayer of faith? Prayer of faith is a prayer that is founded in faith. Without some form of faith prayer is just hot air. God acts on our faith but praise God He is the giver of faith. What is the role of faith? "above" What is the role of confession of sins? Sin that is held on to and nurtured stops God from doing the healing. It's like when Jesus said that He couldn't do much healing in His home town. We must get rid of sin.

grace Posted March 10, 2005 Report Share Posted March 10, 2005 In the healing prayer, what is the role of oil?What is the role of the prayer of faith? What is the role of faith?What is the role of confession of sins? The role of the oil is symbolism in the sense that the Holy Spirit is being poured out upon the person. The role of the prayer of faith is to stand, without doubt, upon the word of God, and claim the promise of God with regard to healing. The role of faith is to please God, for "Without faith, it is impossible to please God, for he that cometh to God must believe that He is, and He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him". The role of confession of sins is to truly repent and leave no obstacle to prevent healing in a sick person. He that covereth his sins shall not prosper, (shall not be made whole).

Rachel Posted March 11, 2005 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 The oil is symbolic. The oil has no healing powers but God can work through anything and anyone. When we pray, unless we believe that what we ask for will be granted by God, then our prayer will be to no avail. Praying in faith, then, is important for us to get results from God. Confessing one's sins frees up one's heart and mind to receive God's forgiveness in Christ. When we are not burdened by sin, then the channels through which our healing will flow become unclogged and we can then better receive that healing. We are also better able to concentrate on developing our faith which is very important in the healing process. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

June Posted March 11, 2005 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 The oil is a symbol of the presence of God's powerful Holy Spirit. The prayer of faith was suppose to save the sick person or make the sick person well and free from demonic possession. If he has sinned, he will be forgiven. By confessing one's sins to another christian, the person is making himself accountable for his sins. He is piercing the darkness. Praying for each other and their sin is an act of faith.

Kim E. Posted May 20, 2005 Report Share Posted May 20, 2005 The role of the oil is symbolic of the restoration of the weary Christian by the Holy Spirit. Though the anointing may be a more common practice than ceremonial it is still important as refreshing, encouraging and uplifting. The anointing and prayer are to be used together. The restoration is spiritual, not physical. What is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glory Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 THE ROLE OF OIL IN THE HEALING PRAYER IS REPRESENTATIVE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT . OIL WAS USED IN THE OLD TESTAMENT TO SANCTIFY OR SET SOMETHING APART UNTO GOD; TO MAKE IT HOLY UNTO GOD.IN THIS CASE, THE SICK PERSON BEING PRAYED FOR IS BEING SANCTIFIED UNTO GOD FOR HEALING. THE ROLE OF THE PRAYER OF FAITH IS TO PUT OUR COMPLETE TRUST IN GOD FOR HIS HEALING VIRTUE AND POWER TO FLOW UPON THE SICK AND BRING DIVINE HEALING SO THAT HE GETS ALL THE GLORY. THE FAITH TO BELIEVE COMES FROM GOD AND SO DOES THE HEALING. WE JUST HAVE TO BE YIELDED VESSELS UNTO GOD. THE ROLE OF FAITH IS NEEDED IN THE HEALING BECAUSE BY FAITH WE CALL THOSE THINGS THAT ARE NOT AS THOUGH THEY ARE.FAITH PLEASES GOD. WE HONOR GOD WHEN WE TELL HIM WE BELIEVE HE HAS ALREADY PAID THE PRICE FOR OUR HEALING BY HIS STRIPES ON CALVARY.FAITH IS AN ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL FACTOR WHEN COMING TO GOD ON BEHALF OF THE SICK. CONFESSION OF SINS IS NECESSARY BECAUSE IT CAN HINDER THE FLOW OF GOD'S POWER IF THE PERSON BEING PRAYED FOR HAS SINS OF UNFORGIVENESS, HATRED, BITTERNESS, RESENTMENT..ETC IN THEIR HEARTS. IT'S NOT THAT GOD CANT STILL HEAL BUT HE CHOOSES NOT TO BECAUSE HE SAYS IN HIS WORD IF WE HARBOR GRUDGES AGAINST OTHERS , HE WILL NOT HEAR OUR PRAYERS....GOD BLESS....
