  |                                     |      	      |                        	| Believing Is Receiving |              		  			Mark 5:28–29    			28For she said, "If only I may touch His clothes, I shall be made well."  			29Immediately the fountain of her blood was dried up, and she felt in her body that she was healed of the affliction.  			  			  		 |  	  	
  |   	 		 		|  You  have heard people of the world say, "I will believe it only when I see  it." Generally, that is the way the world thinks. But God's ways are not  like the ways of the world. The world says, "If I can't feel it or see  it, I cannot believe the miracle is here." God says, "If you believe it  before you feel it or see it, you will see your miracle."  |   
  |  | Believing  first before seeing the evidence of what we are believing for is called  faith. Faith is like a spark and Jesus is the dynamite powder.  |   
  |  | In  the story of the healing of the woman with the issue of blood, there  were many people who touched Jesus (Mark 5:31), but nothing happened to  them. They didn't touch Him in faith. But when the woman who had been  bleeding for 12 years came to Him and touched Him in faith, He felt  power leave His body (Mark 5:30), and it sparked off an explosion of  healing in the woman's body!  |  
  |   | Hearing  about how good, kind and loving Jesus was fired her faith to believe  that He could and would heal her. So convinced was she (even when the  condition in her body was still evident) that she said, "If only I may  touch His clothes, I shall be made well." Did she experience her healing  first before she believed? No, she believed first in Jesus' goodness  and power, acted in faith and only then felt the healing in her body.  |   
  |  | In  the same way, God wants you to believe in His goodness and love toward  you. He wants you to know how willing He is to act on your behalf to  bless you, and how, with Christ, He will freely give you every good  thing. (Romans 8:32) |  
  |   | He  wants you to declare by faith that all is and shall be well with you,  and to expect to see just that. And then, no matter how long you have  had the problem, no matter how bad the experts say it is, an explosion  of healing and restoration will take place, and you will receive what  you are believing for! |
