Partners In Healing
$12.95
Healing is a gift and not a right. The prayer of faith is powerful, but the most faithful prayer of power was that of Jesus in the garden of Gethsemane, on the eve of his great ordeal: “Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me; yet, not my will but yours be done” (Luke 22:42). Anointing cannot guarantee healing. If it could it would border on magic, and would imply that we in some way control God’s actions. God is in control of history and healing. It is God who invites us to join into a community of prayer through the ordinance of anointing.
(excerpt from Partners In Healing)
Though there are countless instances of anointing in the Bible, it is seldom practiced in many Christian traditions today. But this essential rite reminds us that God is the true source of restoration and healing — and that he is at work in all aspects of our lives. Anointing affirms and symbolizes our partnership with God, and it invites God to be part of the healing process for anyone who is sick physically, emotionally, or spiritually.
Partners In Healing is a complete guide with all the resources you need to revive this ancient practice as part of a comprehensive ministry of healing. In addition to exploring the biblical and historical background for anointing, you’ll find a wealth of practical, easy-to-use material. There’s an extensive range of services and prayers, as well as sermons you can use to introduce this ministry to congregations unfamiliar with it. Discussion questions and activities are also included, making this an excellent resource for small group study.
