The bible tells of a lady who had been sick with a bleeding disorder for 12 years. She went to the best doctors, received the finest treatment, but her health continued to decline. One day she got word that Jesus was coming through her town. When she heard that something sparked in her!
She had so much coming against her but she didn’t focus on that; she had faith that it was her time for healing. Instead of giving up, she fought her way through the crowds and touched the edge of Jesus’ robe. When she did she was immediately made whole.
I wonder how many other people were there like her, in a similarly desperate situation. But they just watched the Solution pass by. They didn’t act, they didn’t persist, they didn’t pursue. They just let excuses keep them from their becoming better.
Friend, don’t let that be you. Don’t let your circumstances keep you from choosing to come up higher. It doesn’t matter what’s happened in your past – God has destiny moments in store for you. Keep pressing in, keep praying and, like this woman, reach out to Him. Know that He’s faithful and He’ll meet your faith with His power, and that power can change your situation in ways you thought impossible.
