RABBIT TRAIL FROM NYOBS 13 - HEALING SCRIPTURES

ANOINTING - RABBIT TRAIL

• There were instances in the Bible of special anointing that happened by virtue of the Holy Spirit.
• The anointed Bones of the prophet Elisha brought life back into a dead man.
• Moses face was anointed by a brilliant light when he encountered God.
• Stephens face became anointed with light just before he died.
• The Shadow of Peter fell on people and they were healed.
• The Handkerchief of Paul was placed on the sick and they were healed.
• Shadows and handkerchiefs evoke Hope, an expectation of healing, a point of contact.
• A TV evangelist, pushing his prayer clothes, told the viewers he had received a letter from a woman who had sewed the prayer cloth into her husband’s pillow case to get him saved.

Another letter exclaimed that a wife had ground up the prayer cloth and put it in her

Husband’s hamburger to get him saved.  This is salvation and healing by “Remote Control.”

• What does God say?  No man comes to the Father unless the Holy Spirit draws him.
• I am troubled by those that would traffic in human suffering to grow rich.  All compassion shown in the scriptures was FREE.
• Using the scriptures to raise money for a ministry is a misuse of God’s word and has caused many to be turned off to the gospel and even to make fun of it.
• Nowhere in scripture do you find Jesus using His special powers to provide for Himself or for his immediate followers.

The anointing of God is still available

even if your experience tells you it’s not.
