And when the men of that place recognized Him, they sent out into all that surrounding region, brought to Him all who were sick, and begged Him that they might only touch the hem of His garment. And as many as touched it were made perfectly well. Matthew 14:35-36
As Jesus ministry
spread across the land, many who heard of His healing power were convinced that
by simply touching His garment, they would be saved. Their faith in Him healed their
sickness and that testimony is what sustained their faith from that day
forward. You might be thinking that was all good and well in those days, but we
don’t have the physical presence of Jesus to touch His garment.
That is why Jesus gave
us His Holy Spirit upon departure from earth (John
14:15-27). His Spirit is God’s presence in our lives. We don’t have
to go to where He is, He is with each and every child of God, 24/7. And the
beautiful thing about that relationship with God is He knows your needs, your
wants and desires. His Spirit prays on your behalf (Romans
8:26-27).
But let him ask in
faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and
tossed by the wind. James 1:6
Whatever concerns
you or weighs heavy on your heart, bring it to the Lord and He will help you in
the time of need. Ask in faith and don’t doubt His ability or desire to work in
your specific situation. He loves you and wants to give you peace and hope for
tomorrow. Reach out in faith today and experience His healing touch. God bless!
