Message for May 19, 2019 from Pastor Shirley

Mark 5: 21:34 And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years, and had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse. When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment. For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole.

      In Mark chapter five we have the story of a very sick woman.  Jesus is on his way to heal the daughter of Jarius and He is interrupted as He goes by this woman who comes and touches His clothes.  When she did her life was instantly, completely transformed. Wow the amazing power of a “faith touch”.

      This woman heard  about Jesus. She must have heard the talk of the One who was going about healing the sick.  She was according to the law ceremonially unclean. Should not have been out in the crowds of people.  But this was her opportunity for a miracle. Now or never moment. After all she had tired the doctors and they offered no hope. She only got worse not better.  She spent all she had. She was physically and financially drained. Before she pressed through the crowd to get to Jesus she began to talk to herself. For she said, “ if I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole”.  That is the talk of faith for a miracle!

      Do you need a touch from the Healer?  The Word tells us in Psalms 147:3  He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds [curing their pains and their sorrows].

     There are no hopeless situation with Jesus!
