Don’t Miss Our Moment TODAY’S SCRIPTURE “Jesus turned and saw her. ‘Take heart, daughter,’ he said, ‘your faith has healed you.’ And the woman was healed at that moment.” (Matthew 9:22, NIV) TODAY’S WORD In Scripture, there was a lady who had been sick with a bleeding disorder for twelve years. She went to the best doctors, received the finest treatment, but her health continued to decline. One day, she got word that Jesus was coming through her town. When she heard that, something came alive on the inside. She had so much coming against her, but she didn’t focus on that; she knew it was her time for healing. Instead of giving up, she fought her way through the crowds and touched the edge of Jesus’ robe. When she did, immediately she was made whole. I wonder how many other people were there like her in that same type of situation. They were sick. They were discouraged. They had trouble. But they just watched Jesus pass by. They let excuses keep them from their miracle. Friend, don’t let that be us. Let us not allow our circumstances keep us from reaching out to Jesus. It doesn’t matter what’s happened in our past, let us keep moving forward. God has destiny moments in store for us. Keep pressing in, keep believing, keep praying and, like this woman, let us reach out to Him. Know that He is faithful, and He will meet our faith with His power. A PRAYER FOR TODAY Heavenly Father, today I press into You. I believe that You have my miracle in the palm of Your hand. I choose to take my eyes off of my circumstances and set my gaze on You, Jesus, because You are the Author and Finisher of my faith. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
