Real Conversations (Luke 8-10)नमुना

Have you ever wanted something so much that you felt desperate? You believed you knew precisely what to do to get it, and you started figuring out how to make it happen. This is exactly what we read about in this week’s passage in Luke.

A woman, whom we know only by her ailment, not her name, had experienced a flow of blood for 12 years. She had tried everything she could to get healing from the physicians, but nothing worked. She knew what she had to do. She had to get to Jesus and touch His garment, so she would be healed. She positioned herself in the crowd and waited for Jesus to make His way to her. When He came close, she reached out and touched the fringe of His garment. Immediately, she was healed. The blood stopped flowing!

Jesus stopped and asked, “Who touched me?” Jesus had felt the healing power flow out into the woman. He knew healing had taken place. By inquiring of the crowd, Jesus opened the door for the woman to testify of her healing. After listening to her testify, Jesus compassionately called her His daughter, revealing she was not only physically healed, but also spiritually healed. She was a daughter to the King of Kings. “Go in peace,” He instructed her.

Can you imagine the peace this woman felt? She was able to be reunited with her family and friends and was completely healed. What a testimony Jesus built in this woman!

No matter how God has gifted us, let’s not hide it.

Do you see Jesus building a testimony in your life?

What do you have to testify to all those around you of what Jesus has done or is doing in your life?

Prayer:

Lord, reveal to me the things for which I need to testify.
