Spirit and Life Devotional: A Different Touch

Must read

Spirit and Life Devotional is a daily publication by Pastor Chinaemerem Ibezim, senior pastor of Able Ministers Chapel, a church based in Calabar, Cross River State. 

“His disciples said to him, ‘Look at this crowd pressing around you. How can you ask, ‘Who touched me?’” – Mark 5:31 NLT

Jesus was on the way to Jarius’ house, and as always He was followed by a crowd. A woman in the crowd had suffered for twelve years with constant bleeding. She had suffered a great deal from many doctors, and over the years she spent everything she had to pay them, but she got no better. In fact, she got worse. She had heard about Jesus, so she came up behind him through the crowd and touched His robe. For she thought to herself, “If I can just touch His robe, I will be healed.”

Immediately she touched Him the bleeding stopped, and she could feel in her body that she had been healed of her terrible condition. Jesus realized at once that healing power had gone out from him, so He turned around in the crowd and asked, “Who touched my robe?” His disciples said to him, “Look at this crowd pressing around you. How can you ask, ‘Who touched me?’” But He kept on looking around to see who had done it. Then the frightened woman, trembling at the realization of what had happened to her, came and fell to her knees in front of Jesus and told Him what she had done. Jesus said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace. Your suffering is over.”

Millions of people are going to church today: millions will pray, sing and worship – millions will be touching Him, but not every touch will pull out power from Him. Let your touch be different: touch Him by faith. Today, I decree complete restoration for you, in Jesus name. Amen.
