Our scripture for the Daily Devotional today is taken from Mark 5:24-34. Sin has left a crimson stain on every part of our lives. We all have an issue needing a blood solution.
“A large crowd followed and pressed around him. 25 And a woman was there who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years. 26 She had suffered a great deal under the care of many doctors and had spent all she had, yet instead of getting better she grew worse. 27 When she heard about Jesus, she came up behind him in the crowd and touched his cloak, 28 because she thought, “If I just touch his clothes, I will be healed.” 29 Immediately her bleeding stopped and she felt in her body that she was freed from her suffering.
30 At once Jesus realized that power had gone out from him. He turned around in the crowd and asked, “Who touched my clothes?”

31 “You see the people crowding against you,” his disciples answered, “and yet you can ask, ‘Who touched me?’ ”
32 But Jesus kept looking around to see who had done it. 33 Then the woman, knowing what had happened to her, came and fell at his feet and, trembling with fear, told him the whole truth. 34 He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be freed from your suffering.”
God removes the stain of sin from us.
If only we can get a miracle in our lives. This is the cry and desire of us all. In all areas of our lives, we yearn for a miraculous touch from heaven to give us a reprieve from the hardships and burdens of life. If only we can touch God!
This thought process overlooks the desire of our heavenly Father to reach out to us. God has been waiting on us to turn our gaze toward Him. Like Moses, God is trying to gain our attention from all that life throws at us.
God desires that we all be saved, redeemed, and healed. Let us then reach out to Jesus who is patiently waiting on us and our first step. He is good and will most certainly respond to our plea for His intervention.
Let’s Pray
Dear Father,
Thank you that You are always there waiting for us. You are willing and ready to heal us from the sins of this world, and so I reach out to You for Your hand!
