Faith Heals
In this life, there will be times when we need physical and mental healing. Times when we are sick and rundown, and times when we are overwhelmed and carrying heavy burdens. Often times we think if I can just get this I will be healed, if I just finish this task I won't be so stressed, but that's not true. The women with the blood disorder suffered for 12 years. She had tried everything but nothing would heal her. Her hope for healing was fading, but then she heard about Jesus. She knew if she could just touch him, be in his presence she would be healed. Jesus didn't pray for her before she was healed. Her faith in him was so strong that she knew if she could just simply reach him she would be healed. Jesus didn't say to her since you have touched me you are healed, he said, Your Faith has made you well. When we put all our faith in Jesus he will heal us. He will take our heavy burdens and make us whole. We must remember that just because Jesus doesn't heal us on our terms doesn't mean he is any less good. When we pray for healing we have to trust his timing and his solution to our problem. He may let us struggle with something, to strengthen our faith, but he will heal you. And rest assured he is right there with you pulling you through the storm.
Prayer:
Father, thank you for your goodness, thank you for your mercy and your many blessings. Give us strength Lord, strengthen our faith. We put all our faith, hope and trust in you Lord. Help us to not grow weary in the waiting and to trust that you are still good and that you are still with us. No matter what we face on this earth help us to live our life to glorify you, in Jesus name we pray Amen.
