A Right Now Move of God

Luke 8:43-48

This is the story of the woman with the issue of blood for 12 years. She had done all that she knew to do. She spent all her money on doctor’s visits, and no one could make her better. She was at her wits end and felt that all was lost. Many of us have been there. We have been at that point where it looks like all hope is gone and the worst is to come.

However the woman new that there was one last thing she could do, she knew that if she could just touch the hem of Jesus’ robe she would be healed. She new with all of her heart that if she could just touch his clothing, all her suffering would be over.

Why can’t we all have faith like that? We are always trying to fix something in ourselves or with our lives. It would be so easy if we would just let go and let God. Why do we torture ourselves by obsessing over the things we cannot fix? What we need is a right now move of God to wash over us and our situations. It is a simple five word phrase, “God, I need your help.” Saying it is not the hard part though, it’s the complete submission to His glory. We know in our hearts that He can do it, but our “humanness” gets in the way. We want to be able to be in control and to fix our needs, but that’s not our job. Our job is to give it all to God.

So right now, I am giving it o God, because he will fix it. I am going to stop getting in the way, and just let Him in the driver’s seat to steer my path and watch His plan unfold before me.
