DCLM Higher Everyday27 January 2022 Devotional by Pastor W. F. Kumuyi — Her faith touch worked
TOPIC: HER FAITH-TOUCH WORKED
TEXT: MARK 5:25-34
25 And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years,
26 And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse,
27 When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment.
28 For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole.
29 And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague.
30 And Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone out of him, turned him about in the press, and said, Who touched my clothes?
31 And his disciples said unto him, Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me?
32 And he looked round about to see her that had done this thing.
33 But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.
34 And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague.
MEMORY VERSE: “And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague” (MARK 5:34).
MESSAGE:
The dynamic faith of the woman with the issue of blood in our passage is a classic example of what an unwavering faith in God’s ability can accomplish in the life of a sincere, desperate seeker. For twelve long years, she sought for solution to her plight to no avail, she eventually came, touched the Saviour and received instantaneous healing.

The conception of the miracle is based on: “If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole.” The word “touched” refers to a determined hold, not just a passing brush. She met with the Miracle-Worker, “and touched his garment.”
We can see the result of her touch of faith: “straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed.” Immediately, the sickness was cured, putting an end to a challenge of many years.
The Saviour confirmed her healing and blessed her: “Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole”. Your faith-touch will work for you too and bring an end to all problems in Jesus name!
QUOTE: Your faith-touch will work.
CHALLENGE: Touch Him today.
PRAYER: Lord, as I touch You, let me be made whole.
1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
