Healing Is In His Hands

Healing Is In His Hands
By Elaine Wilburn

May God heal your memories. May He minister to those places in your story that still stir up pain in you. May He bring clarity where there’s been confusion. Maybe you’ve always wondered about something and it’s left you feeling insecure. May Jesus speak truth and clear up what the enemy has distorted.  May He clean up what the enemy has messed up.

In Christ Jesus, you have a place at the table of grace. You’re not your past mistakes and you’re not who others say you are. You are cherished by God Himself. Redeemed by His grace. And renewed because the Spirit of the Living God is mightily at work within you. Jesus paid a ransom for your soul so He could save, heal, and redeem every part of who you are. Rest in His care today.

Psalm 23:1-3 BSB ~ The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside quiet waters. He restores my soul; He guides me in the paths of righteousness for the sake of His name.

Matthew 9:18-26. 18 While he was saying this, a synagogue leader came and knelt before him and said, “My daughter has just died. But come and put your hand on her, and she will live.” 19 Jesus got up and went with him, and so did his disciples.

20 Just then a woman who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years came up behind him and touched the edge of his cloak. 21 She said to herself, “If I only touch his cloak, I will be healed.”

22 Jesus turned and saw her. “Take heart, daughter,” he said, “your faith has healed you.” And the woman was healed at that moment.

23 When Jesus entered the synagogue leader’s house and saw the noisy crowd and people playing pipes, 24 he said, “Go away. The girl is not dead but asleep.” But they laughed at him. 25 After the crowd had been put outside, he went in and took the girl by the hand, and she got up. 26 News of this spread through all that region.
