Use your faith

"Your faith has made you well." Lk 8:48 NKJVThe Bible says: "Now a woman, having a flow of bloodfor twelve years…touched the border of His garment.And immediately her flow of blood stopped…Jesussaid, 'Somebody touched Me, for I perceived powergoing out from Me.' Now when the woman saw thatshe was not hidden…she declared…she had touchedHim and how she was healed immediately" (vV. 43-44,46-47 NKJV). There are three important lessons forus in this story: (1) Recognize and seize your momentof opportunitv. This woman understood that Jesuswas visiting her town and might not be back. Thereare "God moments" in life when you must rearrangeyour priorities, overcome your fear, and exercise yourfaith. If you don't, you will miss God's best. (2) Bewilling to try a different approach. Since she couldn'tget Christ's attention because of the crowd, thiswoman touched the hem of His garment and washealed. Many times, faith calls for stepping into theunknown, doing something you have never donebefore, and discovering God's grace at work in waysvou never expected. (3) Establish a precedent forothers to follow. Until this time, no one in Scripturehad been healed by touching Jesus' garment, and thiswoman's faith opened a door for others to follow herexample. "People brought all their sick to him andbegged him to let the sick just touch the edge of hiscloak, and all who touched it were healed" (Mt 14:35-36 NIV). The fact is, God is looking for people who arewilling to break with tradition. And when He findsthem. He uses them to unlock new dimensions of Hispower so others can be blessed and made whole.Recognize and seize your moment of opportunity!Send us Fan MailInstacart - Groceries delivered in as little as 1 hour.Free delivery on your first order over $35.Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.
