GOD WANTS YOU TO KNOW THAT the woman with the issue of blood was tormented for twelve years by a disease that brought her Love Life to a stand still.
If she was married, then she and her husband must have been forcefully hindered from having sexual intimacy for twelve long years. Not just that, they were not permitted by the Laws of Moses to enjoy the lighter luxuries of touching each other, hugging , embracing, kissing, etc. Her unfortunate condition placed a heavy burden on their Marriage.
If on the other hand she was a Spinster, this must have severely blocked the chances of her getting married and there was no hope of a cure as all the Doctors she saw made their money from her and left her worse off.
But there was something distinct in this woman: it was a strong and stubborn FAITH that her challenge had a solution and she was prepared to still keep searching and one day, she’d find it.
Then one day it happened! She heard of Jesus Christ and the marvelous things He was doing for the sick and the demon-oppressed. She instantly saw Him as the Sun of Righteousness through whom her long awaited healing would come to end the long night of her captivity and marital despair.
Since her sickness was too private to disclose, she purposed to touch the Hem of Jesus’ garment; STRONGLY BELIEVING that, that TOUCH would result in her healing!
She went on and acted on her decision. Reaching Jesus wasn’t easy but she was determined and kept pushing untill she touched Jesus…. and instantly….. she was HEALED FOREVER!
Just like the woman with the issue of blood, many are carrying disease conditions that have hindered them from carrying out their bedroom life duties in marriage. Some have long resigned to fate. The woman with the issue of blood would have also resigned to her fate after all the exploitation she suffered at the hands of Doctors but chose not to. She was resolute, dogged and optimistic that one day the relentless flow of blood would cease. This is FAITH; STUBBORN FAITH! It was as she was resilient and persevering that she heard about Jesus of Nazareth, THE MIGHTY HEALER!
This devotional piece is calling all Spouses whose sexual life has been put on hold by some disease condition(s) to arise like the woman with the issue of blood and reach out to JESUS CHRIST, THE MIGHTY HEALER! Reach out and touch HIM with your FAITH from wherever you are and virtue will flow from HIM into your body and make you whole!
The Bible authoritatively tells us that Jesus Christ is THE SAME yesterday, today and forever(Hebrews 13: 8). He healed the woman with the issue of blood. He can also heal you of that disease in your private part. He can cure you of all that have incapacitated you in the bedroom life and left you unable to satisfy your Spouse. Be it Erectile Dysfunction, Diabetes, or anything else. Your FAITH must rise and embrace the truth that: NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE WITH GOD including your health challenges. That was the mindset of the woman who had the issue of blood.
In the Book of Jeremiah, God asks a question:
“Behold, I am the Lord, THE GOD OF ALL FLESH: is there any thing too hard for me?”(Jeremiah 32: 27)
God created all your flesh including the parts you need to use in your bedroom life. Don’t you know that He can also HEAL those parts, renew them and make them function like new? He surely can!!! He loves you enough to heal you. Therefore, touch Him with your FAITH!
Have you not read of how HE healed Naaman of Leprosy and his body became new like the body of a new born baby?
For years, Naaman could no longer touch his wife because he was infected with Leprosy. The wife also was suffering sexually and emotionally because she couldn’t relate with her husband any more.
Then the new maid of the wife mentioned Prophet Elisha as one who could heal Naaman. Naaman’s Faith rose up and he headed to Elisha. He humbled himself and obeyed Elisha’s instructions to bathe seven times in the River Jordan and he was perfectly HEALED. His marriage was restored and he and his wife could enjoy each other again. Humble yourself and reach out with a stubborn FAITH and touch Jesus Christ and you’ll be HEALED!
