CGMI Above Only 12 September 2017, Devotional by Rev. M.E. Benson-Idahosa - Receive the Touch of Jesus

Topic: Receive the Touch of Jesus — Tuesday September 12, 2017.

Text: John 5:5-9 (NKJV)


Now a certain man … had an infirmity thirty-eight years. When Jesus saw him lying there,.. , He said to him, “Do you want to be made well?” The sick man answered Him, “Sir, I have no man to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up; but while I am coming, another steps down before me.” Jesus said to him, “Rise, take up your bed and walk.” And immediately the man was made well, took up his bed, and walked. And that day was the Sabbath.

In John 10:10, Jesus warned that the thief comes to kill, steal and destroy but that He has come so that you may have life more abundantly. When Jesus suffered and died for you, He paid the price for you to be set free from sin and the bondage of the devil. He also paid the price for you to be restored back to God and to experience all of God’s will for your life. Christ died so you might be completely free and saved in every area of your life. He took away your sins and He took away your sickness and diseases, 1Pet.2:24. He carried away your grief and sorrows, Isa.53:4. He also took away your shame.

Since He took them, they are no longer yours to contend with. All you have to do now is to believe and you will receive the manifestation of God’s power in your life. No matter the evil and havoc that the devil has caused in your life, I have good news for you, child of God. Jesus has come to you right now. As you believe in what He has done regarding your situation, you shall receive His glorious touch right now.

In the authority of Christ, Apostle Paul commanded a man to rise up and walk once he realized that by listening to him the man had faith to be healed (Acts 14:8-10). As you receive this message, I declare unto you to arise right now and receive that which you are believing God for. Jesus has done it already. It is already yours. It is finished. That situation is over. Jesus has given you the victory. By faith, receive His touch right now and rejoice.

Prayer: I believe and I receive the glorious manifestation of the saving, healing and transformative power of Jesus right now.

Bible In A Year Reading Plan: Proverbs 13-15; 2 Corinthians 5
