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. He then goes and lives a holly life. He is then given faith from God
What is the role of confession of sins?
If we want to see God's power we must have a pure heart

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).

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.

Oil is a ritualistic symbol representing the Holy Spirit’s healing power, and has the power to stimulate the faith of the prayer.
The prayer of faith asks God to restore the stricken from his physical and spiritual infirmities—and to do so with the full faith and confidence in God’s healing power.
It is through the faith of the Elders’ prayer that the expectation of God’s blessing is realized.
We confess our sin and open the door to God's healing grace. That is not to imply all sickness is borne from sin—but where sin has laid hold of our lives in an unhealthy outpouring, confession and repentance offer us the means to step out from under sin’s grasp on our life, and gives power to our prayers for healing.

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.

For day and night your hand was heavy upon me; my strength was sapped as in the heat of the summer. Then I acknowedged my sin to you and did not cover up my iniquity.

In the healing prayer, what is the role of oil?
i'm just starting to get to know the bible. the only oil that i know of is when you are baptised. i believe this is used to heal that person of sin.(original sin) maybe this is simular.
What is the role of the prayer of faith?
prayer is to show GOD that you have faith in him, in what he has in mind for you and in him helping you achieve your disicipleship
What is the role of faith?
without faith all that is done is in vain. it's done without Jesus.
What is the role of confession of sins?
to show GOD that you are aware of your sins and are truly sorry for having committed them. such you can ask him for forgiveness of them.

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).

If we meet today and you forget me, you have lost nothing. But if you meet Jesus Christ and forget Him, you have lost everything.
There is more joy in Jesus in 24 hours than there is in the world in 365 days. I know, I've tried them both.

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.

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.

Oil is symbolic indication of the pouring on of the Holy Spirit. Praying in faith is praying with belief in God that He can heal. Faith is belief and trust in God that He will hear our prayers offered in faith. James tells us that confession of sin is required for healing to come and be effective and preceeds healing.

The role of oil is to signify the presence of the Holy Spirit..
The prayer of faith using the name of Jesus is powerful and this calls God into the healing ministry.. You must believe. Faith brings about action.. By confession of sins we admit our wrongdoings to another and be made ourselves accountable for our own sins.

role of oil
Annonting with oil is symbolic of the presense of God's Holy Spirit.
It is a point of contact,a stimulus of faith
role of the prayer of faith
The prayer of faith is faith in action.
The faith of the sick person is important, but it is the prayer of the elders,by faith that effects the healing.
role of faith
Christian maturity,anointing with oil,praying in the name of Jesus,etc are all meaningless unless the one doing the praying does so in faith.
role of confession of sins
By confessing one's sins to a fellow believer,a person makes himself accountable for his sin.
He can finally let go this sin to God and healing can begin
After confession comes prayer, and from the prayer of faith comes healing.
