Healing Power flows when we draw close to Jesus
The Bible mentions some people who were healed just by touching the hem of Jesus’ garment.
Was it a miracle cloak? No! The miraculous power flowed from Jesus and reached the people who approached him and touched his garment seeking the renewal (or the granting) of health.
The interesting thing is that Jesus allowed them to get close to him. He didn’t force people to keep their distance. Quite the opposite! He let them come close and healed them.
Let’s learn from them! Let us approach Jesus with our requests, let us bring our illnesses and ailments before him. He has his arms open; he is ready to receive us and work in us.
