Matthew 9: 20-2220 And behold, a woman who had been suffering from a hemorrhage for twelve years, came up behind Him and touched the border of His cloak; 21 for she was saying to herself, "If I only touch His cloak, I will get well." 22 But Jesus, turning and seeing her said, "Daughter, take courage; your faith has made you well." At once the woman was made well. Mark 5: 25-3425 A woman who had a hemorrhage for twelve years, 26 and had endured much at the hands of many physicians, and had spent all that she had and was not helped at all, but rather had grown worse— 27 after hearing about Jesus, she came up in the crowd behind Him and touched His cloak. 28 For she thought, "If I just touch His garments, I will get well." 29 Immediately the flow of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of her affliction. 30 Immediately Jesus, perceiving in Himself that the power proceeding from Him had gone forth, turned around in the crowd and said, "Who touched My garments?" 31 And His disciples said to Him, "You see the crowd pressing in on You, and You say, 'Who touched Me?'" 32 And He looked around to see the woman who had done this. 33 But the woman, fearing and trembling, aware of what had happened to her, came and fell down before Him and told Him the whole truth. 34 And He said to her, "Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace and be healed of your affliction." Luke 8: 42-4842 But as He went, the crowds were pressing against Him. 43 And a woman who had a hemorrhage for twelve years, and could not be healed by anyone, 44 came up behind Him and touched the fringe of His cloak, and immediately her hemorrhage stopped. 45 And Jesus said, "Who is the one who touched Me?" And while they were all denying it, Peter said, "Master, the people are crowding and pressing in on You." 46 But Jesus said, "Someone did touch Me, for I was aware that power had gone out of Me." 47 When the woman saw that she had not escaped notice, she came trembling and fell down before Him, and declared in the presence of all the people the reason why she had touched Him, and how she had been immediately healed. 48 And He said to her, "Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace."Key Takeaways:Faith in Christ brings healing: The woman’s belief that simply touching the hem of Jesus' garment would heal her shows the power of faith in action. Her faith wasn't passive but active, driving her to seek Jesus despite the obstacles. This reminds us that faith in Christ is a powerful force that can bring about miraculous change in our lives, even when situations seem hopeless. It wasn't the garment that healed her, but her belief in Jesus' ability to heal. Faith, when placed in Jesus, opens the door for His healing and transformative power to flow into our lives.Jesus responds to individual faith: Although the crowd was pressing around Him, Jesus immediately sensed the touch of faith from the woman. This shows that Jesus is deeply aware of those who genuinely seek Him, even in the midst of chaos or a crowd of distractions. His response emphasizes that faith is personal; it's not about the proximity to Jesus or the volume of the request, but about the sincerity of one's heart. This teaches us that even when we feel unseen or insignificant, Jesus recognizes and responds to our personal faith. He is always attuned to the hearts of those who earnestly reach out to Him.Jesus offers more than physical healing: While the woman’s physical healing was immediate, Jesus addressed much more than her physical condition. By calling her "Daughter" and offering her comfort, He also healed her emotionally and spiritually. This interaction shows that Jesus desires to make us whole in every way, not just solving our external problems but bringing peace to our inner being as well. His healing goes beyond the surface, reaching into the depths of our fears, insecurities, and brokenness. Jesus offers complete restoration—body, mind, and spirit.No one is overlooked by Jesus: Despite being considered an outcast by society due to her condition, Jesus took the time to acknowledge the woman and affirm her faith. This teaches us that no matter how society may view or treat us, we are never invisible or insignificant to Jesus. His compassion extends to everyone, regardless of their social standing, past, or condition. Jesus’ attention to her shows that He is not swayed by the opinions of others; He values each person individually and personally. In His eyes, everyone is worthy of His love and care.Persistence in seeking Jesus leads to wholeness: The woman’s persistent faith, even after twelve years of suffering and failed attempts to find healing, ultimately led to her miracle. She didn’t give up despite years of disappointment and worsening conditions. Her story encourages us to remain persistent in our pursuit of Jesus, trusting that He has the power to change our circumstances, no matter how long we have been struggling....
