Latest / The Call to Women in Faith Podcast / He Touched Me: A New Year’s Healing Testimony
Transcript
- 0:00Happy New Year. I hope you welcome the New Year with Jesus by your side.
- 0:05I had the good fortune of going to worship service this New Year's Eve.
- 0:09I was hoping for more Bible reading, but as God would have it, I got something better.
- 0:14I got moving worship music, passages from the Bible that urged me to remember
- 0:21God's goodness and testimonies, powerful testimonies.
- 0:27One of the testimonies was delivered by a woman in faith. She loves our Lord.
- 0:33She was in pain for many years and by the grace of God was healed.
- 0:39When she got back home and got busy with life, her pain returned as her distance
- 0:44with God grew. She went back to praying and her pain went away.
- 0:49She was reminded to be in his constant care. Seek refuge in him always.
- 0:57Quote, He shall cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you shall take refuge.
- 1:04His truth shall be your shield and buckler.
- 1:08End quote. Psalm 91 verse 4 What struck me here is that Jesus wanted her to
- 1:16share her testimony, and she was obedient.
- 1:19If we hear her right, the message is to fill our empty spaces with Jesus,
- 1:25and also replace the junk in our hearts with Jesus, our Savior.
- 1:30His touch will heal. We will be healed from physical, emotional, and spiritual agony.
- 1:37Quote, Shackled by a heavy burden, underneath a load of guilt and shame,
- 1:43then the hand of Jesus touched me, and now I am no longer the same.
- 1:49He touched me, oh, he touched me, and oh, the joy that floods my soul.
- 1:54Something happened, and now I know, he touched me and made me whole. End quote.
- 2:01Him, he touched me. Remember this time when Jesus healed a person and said that his sins were forgiven?
- 2:10Quote, Then behold, they brought to him a paralytic lying on a bed.
- 2:15When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic, Son, be of good cheer.
- 2:21Your sins are forgiven you. End quote.
- 2:25Matthew chapter 9 verse 2. This does not mean that the paralytic was paralyzed because he was sinful.
- 2:33It just means that Jesus heals everything, physical and spiritual.
- 2:40When we sin, we are separated from God. We lose out.
- 2:44Forgiven sins through his blood
- 2:46bring us back to God. Why should we pull away from this amazing gift?
- 2:51Stay close to him every waking minute of every day that you have been given.
- 2:57Experience the amazing power of Jesus moving mountains and paving a way through
- 3:02difficult terrain for you. For you.
- 3:06The one he dearly loves. Love him back.
- 3:09Put him on the throne of your heart.
- 3:12Dear Jesus, place your healing hand on me and drive away all evil that pulls me away from you.
- 3:19I submit it all to you.
- 3:21Burn out that which is occupying your space in my heart. Amen.
