They ran through out the whole region and carried the sick on mats to wherever they heard he was.And wherever he went—into villages,towns or countryside—they place the sick in the market places.They beg him to touch even the edge of his cloak, and all who touched it were healed. (Mark 7:55-56)
“They ran through the region”….Imagine how these people badly seek God because they know that when they find him,they will be healed. It’s not so far away from what we are in right now.. We are all sick people,we all need healing. Some may be physicall sick and needs healing from their body’s sickness.. some have their heart broken into pieces,hurt and in pain and they need healing too.. some are confused and misguided,and they are turning out stressed,depressed and anxious and they need healing too… Some are far worse because their souls are the ones who needs healing,their sould that are leading them to distress,sorrow,agony and darkness..
We all need healing,and sometimes even the best doctors cannot heal us,because the true healing only comes from God who saved us from our iniquities and sin.
“Carried the sick on mats to wherever they heard he was”… Sometimes in seaking God,we may lose our way,sometimes we thought we found him only find out that we are heading the wrong way..sometimes we tend to follow the crowd,the majority, thinking that the very thing we are looking for will be there..but it’s the other way around. We may choose whether we get back on our feet and search again,or get tired and be stuck on that place.
“They beg him to touch even the edge of his cloak,”…. They begged him..you do not beg form someone whom you have relationship with to heal you or even help you when you’re sick. They begged because they do not have personal relationship with Jesus,they beg because they are desperate.. they want freedom from those sickness.. How about us? Do we want that time of desperation come to us first before we startseeking God? Before we ask him for healing,how bad does we want our situations to be?
“And all who touched were healed”… this is the best part of this verse.. ALL WHO TOUCHED WERE HEALED.. no exemptions. When you seek for the healer and you find him and you start connecting to him,it wont matter who you are,where you’re from, how filty,how poor,how rich,how sinful,how dark is your past.. all of those wont matter… because when you find Jesus you should understand that He will save you,because He already paid the price for your freedom,for your healing.. he’s only waiting for you to reach out unto him.. to CONNECT. when you’re in vain and you pray amd don’t even know whom you’re praying to,I tell you God hears you,but I don’t think he will listen to you,because he cares about what your heart is saying and not just what your lips are praying for.. so be careful,because not all the time that we pray He listens,what we need is to CONNECT to him. Touch him,even the edge of his cloak.. Do not be afraid. DO NOT BE ASHAMED,because when you come to him and surrender all your hopes unto him,HE WILL HEAL YOU..HE WILL SAVE YOU.. HE WILL GIVE YOU THE FREEDOM THAT WE ALL DESIRE..
Happy waling with him 🙏🏻
