It can not be shaken

David wrote in a psalm that the Lord "counts the number of stars, He gives them names to all" (Psalms 147: 4). Think about it : David tells us : "When you are in pain, stop and raise your eyes. You will realize then : 'If God can do this, He can certainly meet my need.' "I agree. If, in your suffering, you concentrate on the majesty of God, you will receive more than all the answers that a preacher could give you.

You may think that God has let you down because He did not answer. I tell you, your miraculous word is on the way. He is working at your deliverance right now and has done it since you prayed for the first time. He promised never to give up. The sea can roar, the mountains can fall into the sea and all that can be shaken will be. But He can not be shaken, nor His plans for His church.

When you touch Jesus - when you touch the edge of His garment - you receive His power. When the woman who bleeds Him touched it, we are told "that a force had come forth from him" (Mark 5:30). Some versions use the word "power." This means power over impurity, sin and death.

Remember that He is the God who made all things - including you and me. If this God could create a pure heart in David, a murderer and an adulterer, He can do the same in you. It can change your life.

Dear saint, Jesus is present with you at this moment, in your battle. You can touch Him as surely as the woman did to the loss of blood. You can experience the resurrection, the healing power of Christ, no matter what ordeal you go through. He walks by your side through this ordeal and He has a plan to bring you from death to life. Do not be afraid - just believe !
