Romans 14:22(KJV)
“Hast thou faith? have it to thyself
before God…”
“Cultivate your own relationship with God,
but don't impose it on others…”(MSG)
The third group of people you may be able
to carry on your faith are people who invite you to pray for them and who may
be in such a position that they cannot exercise faith for themselves. This
would apply to pastors of churches and maybe an evangelist on a crusade ground.
Remember James 5:14,15?
“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: 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.”
Notice here, the sick called for the
elders of the church. By that call, authority has been given to them by the
sick to exercise faith on his behalf. This is why the scripture says the prayer
of faith shall save him and the Lord shall raise him up. That probably indicates,
the sick was at the point of death.
