Will You Be Made Whole


Based on the process of the woman with the issue of blood, there is a process we must all go through. I hope that you as the reader will share your process with me.

So let's look at the scriptures that contain this wonderful testimony. You will see that I do not call them stories in the bible. I believe that the Word of God is true and that each "story" is actually a testimony of the goodness of the Lord. So let's read her testimony.
 Mark 5:25 - 34 "And a certain woman, which has an issue of blood twelve years , and had suffered many things of may physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered but rather grew worse, when she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment. For she said, if I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole. and straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague. And Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone out of him, turned him about in the press, and said, who touched my clothes? And his disciples said unto him, thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me? And he looked round about to see her that had done this thing. But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth. And he said unto her daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague."
Now you will also find accounts in Matthew and Luke. I will refer to those accounts but the main account is this one in Mark. Why did I choose this one and not one of the others. I believe the process can be followed in this account. However, before we get into the process I want to talk about the customs of the day. This is important in understanding the woman's position.

In my next blog I will talk in depth about the customs of that day based on the Law of Moses. I will talk about the understood mentality this woman had to have to even approach Jesus. But as I close this introductory post, let me say this. It's time you stop thinking your situation is the end. It does not matter what others have told you. you have to maintain that God's word is true and that you will stand on His word. As Paul said, "...and having done all, to stand... Stand therefore..." (Ephesians 6:13-14)

You are Bound No More.
