Came from behind and touched the border of his garment


Luke 8: 43 – 48.

  1. Here we read about a lady with the flow of blood for 12 years, who has spent all her livelihood on physicians and still could not be healed.
  2. But her faith was so great. She knew about the power of light from God’s face, power from His fingers, His hands, His wounds, His words and from His garments. But she was ashamed to go to Jesus from front, so she went from behind and touched the border of His garment. Immediately she was healed . Our Lord is mighty God. Today we may be suffering with so many problems which can not be told outside. Yes, let us also come to His presence and be delivered.
  3. But, for the eyes of Jesus , it was not hidden, though she touched the hem of His garment from behind. Yes, today we should know that our Lord knows all our hidden problems.
  4. Now this lady , who was healed immediately with her touch , telling witness that she was healed from her sickness of 12 years duration. Do we tell witness and glorify God when we receive the blessing from God?
  5. Jesus is so dearly calling her daughter, and said, your faith has made you well . Go in peace. Yes, today our Lord is so dearly calling us daughter, or son. He is healing our body and soul, and giving us peace.

Let us thank God for His healing and deliverance and glorify His name by our witness. Amen, Hallelujah.
