Text: Mark 5:25-29.
Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan
Exhortation:
At times the devil uses sickness as a poverty weapon. A once rich person can become wretched through incurable illness. The word of God told us about a woman with such a case in Mark 5.
This woman had suffered terribly from severe bleeding for twelve years, even though she had been treated by many doctors. She had been attended to by the best and most experienced medical consultants and had spent all her life savings and investments but instead of getting better she got worse.
However, she had heard about Jesus, so she came in the crowd behind him, saying to herself, “If I just touch his clothes, I will get well.” She touched his cloak, and her bleeding stopped at once; and she had the feeling inside herself that she was healed of her trouble- Mark 5:25-29.
Thank God for Jesus, the Great Physician. He alone is the one who has the power to undo the damage done by demons to the human body. Though medical equipment cannot detect the presence of demons but only germs; the Spirit of Christ searches the deepest of the deep and exposes the hidden works of darkness.
The Sword of Spirit is the Word of God and it has the potent power to dislodge demons, terrify them, make them fade away and be afraid out of their closed places- Psalm 18:45
A mechanic cannot know about a car more than the manufacturer. Medical Doctors are like mechanics and Jesus is the Creator or Manufacturer. Doctors know their limitations and they acknowledge it. That is why they say, “We care but God heals.”
Why not make Jesus Christ, the Great Physician your personal Lord and Saviour today?
Prayer Nugget: By the stripes of Jesus Christ, I am healed!
