your faith has saved you

SUMMARY: In Luke 8:40, we see the story of the woman with the issue of blood who had suffered for 12 years and spent everything she had on doctors but was not cured. She approached Jesus from behind and touched the edge of his cloak, and instantly the flow of her blood stopped. Jesus asked who touched him, and the woman came forward and declared why she had touched him and how she had been healed. Jesus told her, "Daughter, your faith has saved you. Go in peace." This story is about the power of faith and how it can change circumstances and alter history. Faith begins in the mind and requires a shift in our way of thinking to think in terms of faith. Faith is like the connecting thread between God and the world of the spirit and the human world, and without it, there is no connection with God. Faith can affect the heart of God from a temporal, human perspective, and it can alter the state of our lives. We should pray to the Lord, fast, and cry out to God to increase our faith.
In this passage, the speaker discusses the story of the woman with the issue of blood in the Bible who had faith and received her healing from Jesus. The speaker contrasts her with Jairus, a respected religious leader who also approached Jesus for healing for his daughter. The woman was poor and ritually impure, but her faith equalized the playing field with Jairus and she received her healing before him. The speaker encourages listeners to have faith and persevere in prayer, and not to give up too quickly in the face of challenges.
This passage discusses the story of a woman who had been suffering from a bleeding disorder for 12 years and spent all her money on doctors but found no solution. She then heard about Jesus and approached him from behind in a crowd, touching the hem of his cloak, and was healed instantly through her faith. The speaker emphasizes the power of faith and how it can overcome obstacles, even if one does not have a complete understanding of theology. He also discusses the importance of being plugged into Jesus and the sources of positive energy, such as the word, prayer, worship, and community. Finally, he points out that sometimes God has bigger plans for us beyond our immediate needs and that our struggles can inspire and teach others.
The story of the woman who touched the cloak of Jesus teaches us about the power of faith. Despite her desperate situation, the woman believed that touching Jesus' cloak would heal her and it did. But Jesus wanted more for her than just physical healing. He wanted her to leave with a sense of legitimacy and peace. He called her daughter and told her that her faith had saved her. This same power is available to us today if we have faith and trust in Jesus. We should not let go until we have received everything He has for us.

Luke 8 verse 40. I want to talk to you about the woman with the issue of blood. This very interesting character that Christ had an encounter with her, or she had a head-on encounter with the power of Jesus. And that text is very inspiring and I want you and I to be able to receive teaching from the Lord about this text.
