LESSON INTRODUCTION:
A mystery is something secret or unexplainable. Laying of hands may be physically attributed to the impartation of a superior on someone lesser especially when it comes to spiritual matters. As Christians, God has not put in us ignorance as to the mystery, however many Christians are not aware of the tremendous significance of laying of hands. This doctrine is important aside is still effective in the service of Gid today.
QUITE A NUMBER OF CASES ARE FOUND IN THE BIBLE FOR THE LAYING OF HANDS IN BOTH OLD AND NEW TESTAMENT
1. In identification of sacrifice as an offering for sin Lev 1:4, 3:2, 3:8, 3:13, 4:4, 4:15
2. Inl putting sin upon the scapegoat or bullock Lev 16:21, Num 8:10-12
3. In witnessing an accusation Lev 24:14
4. In imparting the Holy Spirit Num 27:18-23, Deut 34:9, Acts 8:17, 9:12, 9:16
5. In imparting blessing Gen. 48:13-15, Matt 19:15, Mark 10:16
6. In healing the sick Mark 1:41, 6:5, 6:18
7. In imparting Spiritual gifts 1 Tim 4:14
8. In working special miracles through Paul’s hand Acts 19:11
9. In ordinary elders Acts 14:23
The laying of hands is a special spiritual process that is NOT just stretching forth of the hand but the special transfer of power, gifts from a superior to the lesser but the Bible strictly warned that we should not lay hands suddenly on no man 1 Timothy 5:22
CONCLUSION: The mystery of laying of hands can best be explained that the holy people and obedient people can carry and transfer this special assignment. Jesus commanded it that when we lay our hands on the sick, they shall recover- Mark 16:18. Jesus demonstrated this by touching many that were sick and they recovered. Matthew 8:3, 14-15. There were many applications of laying of hands in the new testament by the disciples. Acts 13:3 – Impartation
