GRAB THAT GARMENT (Matt 9:20)

OPEN HEAVEN SERIES

Welcome to another open series, last time was Keep planting but this time it’s GRAB THAT GARMENT.

The text above speaks of a woman who had a blood issue for 12 years and then she was healed by just touching.

We need to examine this story critically; different accounts of the gospel tells different stories including her spending all her fortune to doctors, soothsayers, fake prophets and other sources of solution and for twelve years she has been moving from one hospital to another, different advice from different friends must have been giving to her, different diagnosis have seen and different therapies have been administered to this woman at the expense of the woman’s financial strength and off course the woman never gave up hope or stopped trying every solution she was told until one good day.

She stopped, took a good look at herself and she knew she was not getting any younger, she wasn’t getting any richer either, and she wasn’t getting any healthier and she knew something must be done and done desperately too.

She heard wonderful stories about a man who healed people by speaking to them, or laying hands on them. She knew she was out of cash to pay for this form of treatment but she by now has imagined the greatness of the power of this man and she set a plan in motion; A plan that would afford her the opportunity to be treated first before she could pay.

The bible recorded that the set day was not a rosy and comfortable day for the woman and she had to push her way through the entire crowd to get to the center of attraction (JESUS CHRIST). The truth is – Even a hefty man would find this a difficult task, but imagine a woman with a constant blood flow for TWELVE whole years still finding strength to push through and she finally got exactly what she wanted (THE HEM OF HIS GARMENT). She never wanted a touch from Jesus or a word from him all she aimed for is the Hem and she went straight for it and she got it. As unbelievable as It sounded, the hem, didn’t heal her, but HER FAITH.

Today we are faced with numerous challenges and we have considered so many alternatives but I beg to ask, have you considered the HEM OF HIS GARMENT? Do you know that so many expected Jesus that day but were not healed but the woman who grabbed the Hem got the healing she wanted free of charge!!
Resolve in your heart today to Reach for the hem of his garment and Jesus will be so compassionate that he will definitely talk healing to you.

Nobody knew the HEM OF JESUS clothing carried power until someone touched it and nobody else touched it after the woman did meaning even after the woman touched the garment, some still don’t believe that the HEM could heal their problem and some died in their trouble. The whole garment is now available for you to touch and just like in the time of Moses, Only those who touch will be healed.

TOUCH THE HEM OF HIS GARMENT TODAY UNTIL YOU SEE AN ANSWER TO YOUR PROBLEM

Shalom
