Yes well OGIA doesn't believe that this lady had any confidence in her hair ..... it was a matter of her having confidence in the fact that because she had been obedient and hadn't cut her hair that God favoured her and answered prayer.
But then, why did she feel she should spread her hair over her child and referred to it as a "veil of protection"???
Good question...I'm done for the night, Saints...goodnite...
The story here has nothing to do with God HEARING or ANSWERING prayers exclusively for women with uncut hair. But, THAT is what it's turned out to be. And, it turned out to be because those who disagree made it that way.
To claim that uncut hair heals people is akin to witchcraft. Faith heals us. Uncut hair doesn't. That's Bible.

I'm glad he was healed. But I've heard testimonies of women taking their hair down and spreading it over sick children believing that they would be healed because of the fact she was "obedient" in not having cut her hair.
I believe we can refer to these kind of things when we pray. I've prayed before reminding God of obedience and sacrifice and faithfulness but not every prayer is always answered because of these things.
Neither does my obedience, yieldedness, submission, sacrifice protect me against catastrophe or sickness nor does it ward off such.
Good points, my friend.

I'm a little surprised that this testimony comes from someone attending the POA church.
Well, frankly I am a lititle surprised that we don't know Rachel's last name and haven't read about it elsewhere. Makes you wonder about this anonymous couple attending one of the largest churches... Pentecostal Urban Legend?
