Luke 8:44-48 And Jesus said, Who touched me?
And Jesus said, Somebody hath touched me: for I perceive
that virtue is gone out of me. ...
And he said unto her, Daughter be of good comfort:
thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace.
Have you pressed to God, to seek after God, that you might touch Him.
Have you knocked hard and long enough, because of the deep need,
Desperation in your life.
Knowing that you can not really do anything to help this other person. But God has what He needs.
And I know how to get to
God that He may supply, provide for the needs of others.
Bible says to seek me early, seek me with all your hearts and then shall ye find me. I shall reveal myself to you, and abide with you, and where you are shall be with you also. I shall never leave you, nor forsake you.
But low I will be with you to the end of the age.
God who began a good work in us shall watch over His work in us.
Unless the Lord builds the house, they which labor, labor in vain.
Let the hand of God have place in your life, invite God into your heart and life.
If we keep His word and seek to serve him, He promises that he will abide with us.
Sup with us, have fellowship, communion with us daily. Bible talks about how the Lord
abode and had fellowship with Adam in the cool of the evening. Daily, Adam walked in fellowship,
with the Lord. Lord wants to spend time with us, if we will allow him access to our hearts and lives.
Luke 11:9 Bible says, Ask and it shall be given you, seek and ye shall find. Knock and it shall be opened unto you.
Have you stirred God with your faith and persistence? Confidently knowing that He will rise up and give thee ...
v.8 he will rise and give him as many as he needeth.
Jesus said thy faith hath healed thee, thy faith has saved thee.
Faith is action, faith is believing in your heart. Faith will open closed doors, of provision and opportunity.
Faith opens the Heavens for Elijah and for Jesus.
In Elijah’s time there was no rain for three and 1/2 years. And at the sound of His voice and the sacrifice of his life and works, allowed the grace and favor of God to be once again shared with a Nation.
Jesus by faith asked John the Baptist to baptize him in water. He said, that this was needed,
to fulfill scripture. And as Jesus came out from under the water the heavens were open and the Voice of God,
Spoke to the Nation of Israel, this is my beloved Son, in whom I am well please.
And as the heavens were opened with the actions and faith of Jesus, the Holy Spirit in the form of a dove descended from heaven and abode with Jesus. Was the voice from heaven for Jesus, or for his followers, for the Nation of Israel, that the Christ, the Son of God has come to save mankind and bring forth the Kingdom of heaven.
v.6 For a friend of mine in his journey is come to me, and I have nothing to set before him?
Master says: "Trouble me not... the door is now shut"
Heaven may be shut for you and your loved ones. But by the action of Faith and believing in your heart,
knowing the mind and heart of God. Knowing your God, knowing and having fellowship with your Lord, will cause the heavens, the door to be open. They that know their God shall do exploits!
Not because of their friendship, casual acquaintance, Yet because of his importunity!
He will raise and give him as many (loaves) as he needeth. How many loaves, unanswered prays to you have need of being met, do you need and answer from God tonight?
How important is it to you! How concerned are your over the needs of others. This will cause you to move out of your comfort zone. Cause you to seek God press after God.
Let the love of God fill your heart and mind to overflowing. For the abiding presence of God,
will prepare your life to be a holy habitation for God. The voice of God will speak to you,
through His Holy Spirit that you may know the joy of your salvation. That the Lord my establish you,
and prepare you for every good work.
Love the Lord with all your heart and you will have the desires of your heart.
Peter
