Do what the Healing Scriptures say to do,

6)You can show your faith in God by obeying His instructions. The Bible says, “And these signs will follow those who believe: they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover." Mark 16:17,18NKJV
As you pray healing scriptures over the afflicted,lay your hands on them. There is something about the laying on of hands that causes people to be able to receive healing. You don't need to understand it all.

Josephine Liu Can anybody explains more on laying hands? We were told by the late Fr. Rufus that we cannot simply lay hands. I'm quite confuse. Thanks & GBU all.

Sandy Leong It is true Sis Josephine. It can be dangerous to lay hands on others for prayer because it is possible to have a demonic transference from one person to the other. Thus, one needs to be careful. And to pray for protection of the person being prayed over and for yourself.

Sandy Leong Got to go now. Bye.

Clive K J Goh Sandy Leong, Is not about demonic transference. We are God's children, demon cannot simply harm us(read Job). Unless God allow it to happen, for us to learn something. For more detail testimony of laying hand and pray over(deliverance and healing), you can read the 2 books written by Stephen Bong.

Aaron Wong this laying of hands is by faith and devotion and can be use by anyone who believe as we call on the Holy Spirit.... but please note that this is totally different to a priest's laying of hands which is done 'In persona Christi" (In the person of Christ) when administering the Sacraments which is by the authority of Christ vested upon the priest and so can be done only by the priest...

 

Michael Hii Ah!, IN PERSONA CHRISTI, that's the term i was looking for in the earlier post, PRIESTS represent CHRIST on earth, they can act in the person of Christ, hence their DIGNITY is higher than the ANGELS, despite the angels have a higher NATURE.... and thanks to Aaron Wong for pointing out the difference in laying hands by the priests and by other people.

Pauline Siong As with other groups, Stephen Bong's group also train their prayer warriors. I was with the group for some years since 1990s. Whatever group you are in, it is wise to follow the advice of your leader, Josephine Liu. Look for your leader in Emmaus Group which also train prayer warriors. Pauline is a veteran, and a good one. Fr. Rufus is well-known internationally.

Pauline Siong Thanks Aaron Wong, as I have said before, hope you will come in more often to share your wisdom.

Jannie Norochin The laying on of hands is not required to heal a person. The actual act of laying on of hands is not what heals a person but the power of God does the healing. Whenever possible laying on of hands should be done as an association with the person whom you are praying for as you are connecting yourself with that person in need. GBU

Josephine Liu TQ to all Brothers & Sisters in the Lord. These are the ways to learn and to know more from you all. It will be more interesting to see more questions being ask so that we can learn more from others. Getting a closer relationship with u all is to build my faith in God. Most of all, to get our group growing. Praise & Glory to You Lord!

 

Patrick M. Canonigo Healing .. whether by the laying of hands or by prayer request through Jesus .. one must have a relationship with GOD. n A relationship that is Faithful and believing in Him with all your Love for Him in your heart, your soul, your mind and your strength. Knowing that GOD is the Truth, The Way, and the Path! He is always there with you and the promise that he will never leave you until the end! Through the gift of the Holy Spirit to those that believe in Christ and His Father, one must confess his/her sins, ask for forgiveness not only for oneself but for all generations on both side of one's family, then a prayer to repent, with a prayer to release all curses against one self and families related. In doing all this, GOD sees and knows that one's purpose is to be pure in heart and one with GOD to follow His path. John 9:31
We know that God does not listen to sinners. He listens to the godly person who does his will.
Psalms 34:15
The eyes of the LORD are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry.
Psalm 34:19-20
19Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all.
20He keepeth all his bones: not one of them is broken.
James 2:17
In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.
Matthew 21:22
If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer.”
Hebrews 4:12
For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.
May our GOD continue to provide us all who is a believer with the Holy Spirit!

 

Pauline Siong Patrick M. Canonigo, that is one of the things the prayer warriors will be taught. That is why one does not simply go round laying hands.

Patrick M. Canonigo The LORD wants believers to learn the word of GOD. This includes healing ... we who believe are taught to encourage other believers to learn. Romans 15:4
For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us, so that through the endurance taught in the Scriptures and the encouragement they provide we might have hope.
Colossians 2:2
My goal is that they may be encouraged in heart and united in love, so that they may have the full riches of complete understanding, in order that they may know the mystery of God, namely, Christ,
1 Thessalonians 4:18
Therefore encourage one another with these words.
1 Thessalonians 5:11
Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.
2 Timothy 4:2
Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction.
Titus 1:9
He must hold firmly to the trustworthy message as it has been taught, so that he can encourage others by sound doctrine and refute those who oppose it.
Titus 2:15
These, then, are the things you should teach. Encourage and rebuke with all authority. Do not let anyone despise you.
Philemon 1:7
Your love has given me great joy and encouragement, because you, brother, have refreshed the hearts of the Lord’s people.
Hebrews 3:13
But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called “Today,” so that none of you may be hardened by sin’s deceitfulness.
Hebrews 6:18
God did this so that, by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled to take hold of the hope set before us may be greatly encouraged.
Hebrews 12:5
And have you completely forgotten this word of encouragement that addresses you as a father addresses his son? It says, “My son, do not make light of the Lord’s discipline, and do not lose heart when he rebukes you,
Hebrews 12:14
[ Warning and Encouragement ] Make every effort to live in peace with everyone and to be holy; without holiness no one will see the Lord.
Exodus 4:12
Now go; I will help you speak and will teach you what to say.”
2 Thessalonians 2:15
So then, brothers and sisters, stand firm and hold fast to the teachings we passed on to you, whether by word of mouth or by letter. This writing was meant to share and encourage all believers as instructed by the word of GOD. This writing was not to mislead anyone to go about or around to the process of the "laying of hands" without learning.
I pray that those that are interested in learning how to heal themselves, their family, and others [who may be believers or non-believers] will be provided by our Holy Spirit. All this in Jesus name ... Amen!

Josephine Liu Amen!

Aaron Wong When a layperson lay hands... it is not a blessing... we don't bless... that is for those who has the authority to do so (e.g priest) instead it is like a prayer... we pray to God to bless them...

 

Michael Hii it's best for us to do what we are called to do best... some are called to do best in prayers (this is what we do here at DMA), some to the HEALING MINISTRY (Like Stephen Bong group or a section of the Emmaus Servant Community), some are rather good at reaching out to LOST/STRAYED SHEEP... some are extremely good at posting inspirational posts/reflections/sharing here at DMA fb... if we are not sure on LAYING OF HANDS, maybe better not stretch out your hands but just PRAY HARD in our hearts.

Pauline Siong Another glimpse of "the light that stream into your soul" uncle Michael. Thanks. On the worldly side, I do not have "i- touch" literally, that is.

David J H Chin uncle Michael Hii, aunty Pauline Siong, sis. Sandy Leong and the many others (who contributed here), many thanks for all the uplifting/comforting info i got from all of your postings. i for one is not good at anything but just want to learn and know more about my faith. cheers. ☺

Sandy Leong ‎:) Brother David, i am still learning too...

David J H Chin u all uni level; me - kindergartener! :)

 

Patrick M. Canonigo Yes Amen! I totally agree Michael Hii .. that it is best for us to do what we are called to do best ... for the Holy Spirit has many gifts ... Thank you for sharing that important message. I really appreciate the sharing of info. May GOD continue to provide all with the blessing of knowledge and understanding through the word of GOD in Jesus name ... Amen.
