I was reflecting on this familiar passage and my mind considered the sea of people surrounding Christ and how one can feel lost in the masses.
We leaders, who are called by God, sometimes erroneously forget to recognize our differentiating ingredient in the marketplace – faith in Christ.
We are searching for customers/ partnerships who have a yearning, a need, that cannot be met but by a faith connection. That is who we are called to serve.
When our faith and obedience to pursue what God has called us to do matches with the faith of the consumer, there is immediate success. Virtue is exchanged.
Scripture reminds us that we are created by God to do His works:
“For You formed my innermost parts; You knit me [together] in my mother’s womb. I will give thanks and praise to You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Wonderful are Your works, And my soul knows it very well.” Psalms 139:13-14 AMP
Everyone will not nor is expected to buy our products or to receive our solution today. We just need to focus our efforts on finding the one in the crowd that has the need, today!
By faith, we must see them, trust Gods process and press forward knowing that devine connections shall and must happen so that God will get all the glory.
It is possible at times to doubt and wonder if what we desire will materialize. The women in this passage likely experienced that emotion as well – but she pressed forward doing the work to stay in faith and believe.
Here is a word of encouragement for those moments: “”Do not let your heart be troubled (afraid, cowardly). Believe [confidently] in God and trust in Him, [have faith, hold on to it, rely on it, keep going and] believe also in Me.”John 14:1 AMP
Go in peace and rest in:
⁃ Knowing whom god sends he qualifies
⁃ Knowing that as we seek wisdom and understanding that our paths will be lit
⁃ Knowing that divine appointments are being orchestrated by the Lord
Be Blessed!
Be a Blessing!
“Jesus said, “Who touched Me?” While they all were denying it, Peter [and those who were with him] said, “Master, the people are crowding and pushing against You!”
But Jesus said, “Someone did touch Me, because I was aware that power [to heal] had gone out of Me.”
When the woman saw that she had not escaped notice, she came up trembling and fell down before Him.
She declared in the presence of all the people the reason why she had touched Him, and how she had been immediately healed.
He said to her, “Daughter, your faith [your personal trust and confidence in Me] has made you well. Go in peace (untroubled, undisturbed well-being).”” Luke 8:45-48 AMP
