Devotion
“Just One Touch” is a song based on this story in Matthew 9. This woman was instantly made well simply by touching the hem of Jesus’ garment. It only took one touch! She reached out in faith with full belief that all it would take is a simple touch. The combination of her action and belief saw this woman freed from a disease that had plagued her life for over a decade. What an incredible miracle. What a great revelation!
Is it difficult for you to believe that you could be made whole with just one touch? Maybe you need a physical healing, or maybe you need God to come through in a certain situation in your life. Whatever you need God to restore, He is both willing and able. Faith is the currency of heaven; it was faith that saw the woman with the issue of blood receive her supernatural healing. Know today that Jesus has already finished His work of healing and it is ours to receive in full. Ask God today to increase your measure of faith as you believe Him for bigger and greater things.
Scripture
Matthew 9:20-22 NIV
Just then a woman who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years came up behind him and touched the edge of his cloak. She said to herself, “If I only touch his cloak, I will be healed.” Jesus turned and saw her. “Take heart, daughter,” he said, “your faith has healed you.” And the woman was healed at that moment.
