THE SUBSTANCE OF FAITH (3)

GO IN THE PRESS

“When she had heard of Jesus, came in the PRESS behind and touched His garment” Mark 5v27

You can't go in the press and not touch Jesus. But you must have heard of Him first before you can be convincingly motivated to go in the press which is your substance of faith. Romans 10v17 say; faith is produced by hearing and hearing by the word of God so, not until you have heard, you will not move. Make all the effort to hear Him. Lay hold on every material that talks about Him and digest them. Keep hearing Him never stop. Meditate on His word continuously.

Now the case of the woman in the picture painted in Mark 5v25-34 is a very pathetic one. She had spent all she had on finding the solution to her predicament but to no avail. Now that she was left with nothing she needed someone who could heal her without being paid because she didn't have the money either. She had only two options, its either she got someone to heal her for free or remain with her predicament. Even the dead hear Him and responds let alone you who are still alive. Lazarus jump out of his grave when he heard Him call, John 11v43-44. He is calling you now so jump out of your grave now. You have stunk enough. As a matter of fact this woman was already stinking so you no people will naturally be avoiding her. She wouldn't be allowed on the public bus etc because of her odor. However while the people were giving way for her odor she found her way to Christ. If you study that chapter carefully you will discover that Jesus was on His way to heal somebody else while this woman touched Him in the press.

Conclusively they have said it's impossible but He says with Him all things are possible. Go back to that office they said there is no vacancy for you and take your seat. Go and get that admission. Go for a medical check-up again and you will find out that the formal results have been annulled. The doctors said you can't have children again but the Custodian of children says relax, your babies are on the way. It doesn't matter how bleak things look, you just go through because we live by faith and not by sight. Go through that difficulty and make demands of your right!
