Today, let's talk about faith, how is your faith, my dear? In several passages, that the Holy Bible shows us, faith is linked with that story, because without faith it is impossible to please God. Specifically, let's talk about that woman who suffered from bleeding for 12 years. This woman, whose name is not revealed in the Word, spent everything she had to get the cure, however, she never improved but rather worsened. She heard about Jesus Christ, and was sure in her heart that if she just touched the garment of the Messiah, she would be cured.

“When she heard about Jesus, she came behind Him in the crowd and touched His garment. For she said, “If only I may touch His clothes, I shall be made well.” Mark 5.27-28

Jesus walked on narrow streets and a crowd followed Him, but tat sick woman excluded by the society faced everyone in order to touch Jesus` garment. At the moment of touching it, the miracle took place and she was healed at that right moment. “Immediately the fountain of her blood was dried up, and she felt in her body that she was healed of the affliction.” Mark 5:29. Jesus felt something happened, He felt some virtues (power) being released because of the different touch, “And Jesus, immediately knowing in Himself that power had gone out of Him, turned around in the crowd and said, “Who touched My clothes?” Mark 5:30. That crowd that followed Him wasn't drawing any power, but that one, who had faith, drew it and drew the attention of Jesus. And do you, my beloved, represent that crowd or that woman? Have you extracted power of Jesus? Have you taken the opportunity? Jesus is going through there, be faithful and your miracle will come. Be aware that touching Christ`s garment is not connected to the physical issue, but to spiritual The anointment that woman received when touching the garment of Christ, you will also receive, be faithful, my dear, Jesus is passing by your side, call His attention.
