It is no surprised that she pressed her way to Jesus, she was desperate to experience a miracle<\/p>\n<p>Matthew\u2019s gospel tells us that she said, \u201cIf only I may touch His garment, I shall be made well.\u201d (Matthew 9:21) She believed that the Lord could heal her and would heal her if she touched His garment. Isn\u2019t that amazing? Hundreds of people were pressing against Jesus but only one person\u2019s touch caught His attention. When she touched Him, Jesus said, \u201cWho touched Me?\u201d Peter could not understand His question and said, \u201c<em>Everyone is touching You. How can you therefore ask \u2018Who touched Me<\/em>?\u2019 \u201d But Jesus replied, \u201c<em>Somebody touched Me, for I perceived power going out from Me<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This woman\u2019s great faith drew power from Jesus. It was from this one touch the woman received physical healing. We too have the power to touch Jesus. Through prayers, we too have the power to touch Jesus. Every prayer should be an attempt to touch the hem of His garment. Today, let your prayer go out in faith that expects to receive an answer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Friday, December 10 Amazing Faith \u201cDaughter,\u201d he said to her, \u201cyour faith has made you well.
