THE MINISTRY OF LAYING ON OF HANDS, Part III

PRAYING FOR THE SICK


The book of Acts records many examples of how God used the laying on of hands by believers to perform miraculous healings and other supernatural signs confirming His Word. Below are a few scriptures on praying for the sick.

Act 5:
12 And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders wrought among the people; (and they were all with one accord in Solomon's porch.
13 And of the rest durst no man join himself to them: but the people magnified them.
14 And believers were the more added to the Lord, multitudes both of men and women.)
15 Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and
couches, that at the least the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow some of them.
16 There came also a multitude out of the cities round about unto Jerusalem, bringing sick
folks, and them which were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed every one.

Acts 14:
3 Long time therefore abode they speaking boldly in the Lord, which gave testimony unto the word of his grace, and granted signs and wonders to be done by their hands.

Acts 28:
8 And it came to pass, that the father of Publius lay sick of a fever and of a bloody flux: to whom Paul entered in, and prayed, and laid his hands on him, and healed him.

James 5:
14 Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord:
15 And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have
committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.


We always have to remember that it is the Lord Jesus Who is our healer. He will always confirm His word with signs following. We just have to believe that He will always watch over His word to perform it. The word of God says in Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.


Mark 16:
19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on
the right hand of God.
20 And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and
confirming the word with signs following. Amen.

Always trust in Jesus, He will NEVER fail you.



Until next time, KEEP THE FAITH !!!!!!!!!!
