May you fail in this endeavor.

And, when she lets down her hair, her glory increases, as does her supposed spiritual power. Believers in holy magic hair say that a woman can unravel her hair for greater miracles. If she lays it over an altar or over written prayer requests as she prays, her prayers are more likely to be answered. If she spreads her hair over a person, that person can receive the Holy Spirit more readily—the “laying on of hair,” as it’s called. A woman “shaking her hair in the wind” can guarantee all kinds of miraculous results, from the salvation of lost loved ones to the healing of diseases to the winning back of lost romantic affections. Holy magic hair even has power over evil spirits, and the devil fears the power of uncut hair.

According to the holy magic hair doctrine, if a woman cuts her hair, she loses her identity as an “apostolic woman,” loses authority in the spiritual realm, and puts herself and her family at risk. Women are warned that to cut their hair is to bring themselves to misery and regret. After the hair is cut, there is no way to get the original “anointing” back.

This magic hair doctrine is akin to Roman Catholic practices.
simply pure nonsense, backed by some strange twisting of the word of God.

It was her worship of our true God and Savior Jesus Christ!

So why should a lady or a body of believers be frowned upon by this form of worship and act of faith?

She doesn't have "power with angels"

I don't want some sister putting her dead skin cells on me

The supernatural can happen when a woman uses her hair as a point of faith. I am tempted to say there is nothing supernatural about her hair just as there is nothing supernatural about our hands, but we don't have power with angels with our hands. We KNOW when we lay our hands on the sick, the Bible says the sick will recover.

Healing angels, ministering angels, encouraging angels can be summoned with the worship and supplication of a woman who uses her hair as a point of faith.

Actually, since starting this thread, I have come to the conclusion that there is something different between our use of our hands and the woman's use of her hair.

No it doesnt say that.

My hands aren't a point of fsith.

No, no ,no, a thousand times No! God Never says any of that.

The supernatural power that a woman can access in worship and supplication is a blessing from God that is not given to men.

No they don't! Stop this baloney! Men are the image of God. It's all about faith

Buckeye the only way a woman employs the use of her hair is letting it cover her head. It is a covering not a wand.
