00:02:54,960 --> 00:03:03,920
Speaker 2: to give his life for me. By his stripes, what

37
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:11,240
Speaker 2: he endured, I am healed, and by his mercy I

38
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:16,960
Speaker 2: am saved. You do not hide yourself from me, and

39
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:23,160
Speaker 2: you give your goodness without measure. I will sing your

40
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:27,680
Speaker 2: praises for you make me whole, and you give me peace.

41
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:32,960
Speaker 2: They worship you for your loving kindness has restored me

42
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:43,600
Speaker 2: body and soul. Faith brings healing. The woman in this

43
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:47,880
Speaker 2: story had been sick for twelve years. She had suffered

44
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 2: very much and had been seen by many doctors, and

45
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:59,600
Speaker 2: seen by many doctors. She had spent all of her resources,

46
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:07,200
Speaker 2: but nothing was improving, only getting worse. When this woman

47
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 2: heard about Jesus, she decided to follow him. She thought

48
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 2: if she could touch the him of his garment, she

49
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:21,320
Speaker 2: would be healed. And when she touched his coat, her

50
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:26,240
Speaker 2: bleeding stopped. Recognizing that power had gone out from him,

51
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:31,919
Speaker 2: Jesus asked who touched me, and in reverence and feared,

52
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 2: the woman stepped away. The woman stepped forward to share

53
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:44,640
Speaker 2: her story. Jesus then acknowledged her faith and says it

54
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 2: healed her against all hope and in defiance of cultural

55
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:55,919
Speaker 2: and social norms. The woman stepped out in faith what

56
00:04:56,040 --> 00:05:00,800
Speaker 2: no man could give her, faith in God provided it

57
00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:07,400
Speaker 2: was our healing. Perhaps today you find yourself in a

58
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:13,600
Speaker 2: similar situation, maybe in need of healing. God not only

59
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 2: can heal your body, he can heal your heart and

60
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:24,359
Speaker 2: restore your mind. For faith in God is real and

61
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:30,839
Speaker 2: it is powerful. Faith in God brings healing to us.

62
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:36,920
Speaker 2: It can take many shapes and forms, but it brings healing.

63
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:40,320
Speaker 2: This is your chance to step out in faith and

64
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:43,520
Speaker 2: to touch, if you will, the hem of Jesus's garment.

65
00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:48,480
Speaker 2: This is your opportunity to come before God, confess your failures,

66
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:52,599
Speaker 2: your sin, and more, ask him to strengthen your faith,

67
00:05:56,680 --> 00:06:02,320
Speaker 2: receive from him. I hope you'll join with me to

68
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:04,560
Speaker 2: take a moment and dwell on the grace of God.

69
00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 2: Think of how the Holy Spirit ministers to you through

70
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:16,480
Speaker 2: your faith. Thank Him for his care and his compassion

71
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:24,520
Speaker 2: over you. For bringing into your life everything in anything

72
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:30,159
Speaker 2: that can help strengthen your heart. Bring healing to your soul,

73
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:38,240
Speaker 2: to touch your life, for manifesting healing, maybe in your body, heart, soul.

74
00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 2: Thank Jesus for loving you unconditionally in the past. Thank

75
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 2: him that his love for you will never change. I

76
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:55,480
Speaker 2: don't know where you're at or what you're going through,

77
00:06:55,560 --> 00:07:00,720
Speaker 2: but know this God is present, He sees you, He's

78
00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:05,800
Speaker 2: listening to you. Jesus is intimately acquainted by the way

79
00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 2: with the fears of this world, the fears of your heart.

80
00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:14,240
Speaker 2: He's aware of the struggle and the difficulty associated with

81
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:19,280
Speaker 2: fighting the good fight and keeping the faith. However, remember

82
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:23,960
Speaker 2: he has overcome the world, and as Jesus overcame, you

83
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:28,200
Speaker 2: will too. You are never alone. You always have an

84
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:32,240
Speaker 2: audience of one. Ask the Holy Spirit to help you

85
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:35,360
Speaker 2: to submit your whole heart to obeying Christ. Ask him

86
00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:39,400
Speaker 2: to empower you with the faith that will move mountains.

87
00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:46,040
Speaker 2: Ask him to give you courage to reach out and

88
00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:50,920
Speaker 2: to receive from him. Remember what Jesus said to the woman.

89
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:57,200
Speaker 2: Dear woman, you are made well because you believed. Go

90
00:07:57,320 --> 00:08:01,960
Speaker 2: in peace and you will have no more suffering. Faith

91
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:08,280
Speaker 2: brings healing to what ails you. God has called you

92
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:11,640
Speaker 2: to a victorious life filled with His love. His graath

93
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:15,880
Speaker 2: is goodness. Never forget the intensity and depth in which
