God is the God of daring people

I want to invite you to turn to the Book of Mark chapter 5 beginning with verse 21. I am going to be totally flowing in the Spirit this morning and I am going to let God lead me, and I chose a meditation that I think is going to be a blessing to you and It's here about the woman who touched Jesus' cloak, and it reminded me of this passage for this morning specifically because this woman, the woman with the issue of blood, is a woman who overcame obstacles, we are here overcoming a series of obstacles; snow, cold, the mind and emotions that betray us at times but we are here, and we have had to overcome an obstacle, God blesses that, God blesses a people that overcomes obstacles as he blessed this woman through her ability to overcome obstacles .

You know the story. It says here in verse 22: "One of the leaders of the synagogue named Jairus came and as soon as he saw Jesus he fell at his feet saying: my daughter is dying, come and lay your hands on her so that she may be saved and she will live." ."

"So the Lord Jesus went with him," advanced to go with Jairus to his daughter who was dying, "and a great crowd followed him, pressing on him, but a woman who had suffered from an issue of blood for twelve years and had suffered He spent a lot of many doctors and spent everything he had, and nothing had benefited, before he was worse, when he heard about Jesus he came behind the crowd and touched His mantle because he said: if I only touch his mantle I will be saved and immediately the The fountain of her blood dried up and she felt in her body that she was healed from that scourge."

"Then Jesus, knowing in himself the power that had gone out from him, turned to the crowd and said: who touched my clothes? His disciples said to him: do you see that the crowd presses against you and you say who touched me? to see who had done this, then the woman, fearing and trembling knowing what had been done in her, came and prostrated herself before him and told her the whole truth, and he said to her: daughter, your faith has saved you, go in peace and you are healed of your scourge" amen.

Father: lead us now and be You preaching Your Word Lord first to my spirit, to my heart, to my mind, to my life, and then Lord transmitting Your truth to the lives of your children who are here, and we are all hungry to hear of You this morning, open the treasure Lord of Your Word and speak to us because we want Your bread Lord this morning for our lives in Jesus Name, amen and amen.

Well, I like this passage, I like this character of the woman with the issue of blood, I like the desperate characters that appear to Jesus from time to time in Scripture, agonizing people, daring people, people who don't care nothing, people who want something and need something and are willing to overcome obstacles, to go against people, to overcome personal and physical limitations to achieve what God has for them, desperate people.

I love desperate people, perhaps because I am desperate. I like agonizing people because I agonize from time to time, and I like striving and brave people because I have always tried to receive and live according to those words of God to Joshua: look, I command you to make an effort and be brave because in the Christian life takes that spirit. In life in general you need a brave spirit, a daring spirit, a spirit that overcomes obstacles, a spirit that sets its sights on a goal and goes after it no matter what is in the way and stays glued. to the goal, desperate characters, characters that do not give up.

I want to be like that and I think that you also want to be like that and you know what? Those are the people who please the Lord, those are the people that God says: there goes one of mine, I am going to bless him, I am going to reward him, I am going to listen to him, I am going to advance him, I am going to grant him the desires of their hearts, desperate characters, characters who overcome obstacles, characters who overcome difficulties, characters for whom their goal and vision is much more important than the sometimes arduous and long process they have to follow to reach their goal. goal.

I think of this woman who overcame many obstacles, as you can see here, and we are going to talk about some of them, but I also think of other characters like Sacking. The Bible says that Plunder was small in stature and there was a large crowd, because the crowds always followed the Lord, there were many who wanted what He had to give: healing, comfort, Word of affirmation, Jesus had the power and grace that the religious of His time did not have, the dead churches of the Sadducees, the establishment churches, the common formal churches, Jesus had the life of God within Him and that is what we want, we want to go where life is of God.

If you want life, don't go to a dead place, amen? If you want to receive the Word of God, do not simply go to a place where there are magic formulas and conventions, go where the life of God is, join people where the life of God is because that is where you are going to receive and this woman, and the crowds followed Jesus because He had something that the Pharisees did not have, that religious people did not have.

But going back to Plunder, Plunder had heard about Jesus and he knew that in Him there was something for his soul, and he also overcame an obstacle, his small stature and a large crowd that surrounded Jesus that did not allow him to see him, do you understand? and that's why Plunder did something desperate and it was that he climbed a tree, you know the story, he climbed a tall, strong tree so that when the Lord passed by he could see it because Plunder had a need as well as there was in this woman, Plunder needed, he thought: if only I saw him I'm going to be blessed.

How interesting because this woman thought: if only I touched the edge of her cloak, Plunder said in her mind: if only I see it, because the truth is sometimes we only need something minimal, in God there is so much power that a little touch, a look at Him, a single moment of counting on His Spirit can solve all the problems of our life.

Do you know that you can go to a psychiatrist, a psychologist for twenty years, psychiatrists and psychologists and glory to God for them they are necessary, and pay many thousands and thousands of dollars, but for a moment only in the Presence of God it can change all those emotional problems in your life, a moment in which you feel the touch of the Holy Spirit in your life, a moment in which there is a burst of deep crying and that you surrender to the Lord your sadness, your resentment, your meaning of wounds about life, the pains of your past, if you surrender them to the Lord in a moment that can change your existence completely, a moment before the Presence of God.

That is why when we pray we have to seek that level of depth with God. When you have a need, if there is something that afflicts you, some need, some depression, some obsessive thought, what you should do is lock yourself in your room and tell the Lord: Lord, I am not going to leave here until I feel that You have heard my prayer, You have healed me and You have given me what I need, and even if they find my skeleton because I have not eaten in several days, I will not leave here until You bless me, and cry out to the Lord, cry before Him until you feel that your prayer has reached the bottom, until you feel that something has come out from within you, that something melts within you and you can achieve that healing that you need for your life.

Looting said: if I just looked at him for a little while that's going to be enough but you know what? when you do your part, when you pay the price is when God truly takes notice of you and blesses you. Many times God does not take notice of us because we are pusillanimous in the way we serve him, we are geeks, do you know that word? We Dominicans say geeks. How do Guatemalans say when a person is like that, how anything cries and crying children? crybaby, okay, we are crybabies, we are fragile, any little thing scares us, any little thing lowers us and we seek God for convenience, we conceived on December 31, we promise ourselves to be spiritual giants and a week has passed and we are back to the same routine of all the years: I am going to go to Church every day Father, I am going to serve you, I am going to be a spiritual giant, and when things got tight and the boss spoke badly to you or they did not pay you everything they had to pay you already there you threw yourself on the floor and you forgot your good feelings and God says: I am not going to bless those people.

Brothers: God is always the God of striving and brave people, God is the God of daring people, God is the God who says: even if it is I am going to grab a little from him and he makes an effort, and then God gives him a lot further.

To this woman who said: if only I touched the edge of His mantle and God granted her a personal interview with the King of the universe Christ Jesus. To Plunder he thought: if I only look at him, why? because Plunder had a wound inside him, I'm not talking so much about Plunder but it is an interesting comparison between these two people because Plunder had a wound inside him, I'm not talking so much about Plunder but it is an interesting comparison between these two people because he also had an urgent need. I think what Plunder needed was consolation, to be forgiven by God because he was a scoundrel; he was a thief, he was a deceiver, he abused people and his position as a tax collector and he felt dirty because he knew he had done wrong, and he just wanted to look at this man who had run away from Him who was a man of mercy and of grace, and that he told sinners that they could find peace in the Lord, and Sackeo said: wow, this man has something special, if I just look at him for a moment maybe something will happen in my life and he climbed on that tree.

Imagine for a man like Looting that he was a daring and very feared guy, he was not that ridiculous chubby guy that so many sing in that little chorus, Looting come down from the tree, when I was little in Santo Domingo we sang it, Looting was a sinister man, Looting He was a gangster and people were afraid of him, and for him to be seen up there as a boy up a tree must have cost his dignity, and when the Lord passed by and saw that man up in that tree there to look at him He He understood the heart of Sacking if He was God, Jesus, and He is God, He understood what he needed and told him: Sacking get down from that tree, today I need to eat a sancocho in your house. Today I am going to go to your house and you are going to make a good stew with steaming white rice, you see what I am thinking, right? There's nothing like a good broth when it's cold, and I'm going to go to your house and we're going to eat it together.

Another nice thing, I'm talking more about Looting than the woman with the issue of blood but it's okay it's the Word of God, they are two very interesting guys both psychologically. I say: the Gospel has to be simple, the Gospel is plain, the Gospel is not out there with such self-righteousness. The Lord was an easy guy to approach, he was not around: I am the King of the universe, they have to treat me with homage.

He told him: Plunder I'm going to eat at your house, he invited himself and I think Plunder liked that type of simple, friendly, humble minister and that was what touched Plunder's life, let's learn to be like Jesus in that In this sense, to reach souls we have to be simple, we have to be smiling, we have to laugh at ourselves, we cannot take the Gospel too seriously. The Gospel is tremendously serious but sometimes with our self-righteousness and our pretensions we alienate people.

Sometimes when people say a word: oh forgive me, Pastor, it escaped me, I tell them: brother, forget that I've heard worse than that, not from the brothers but from the people out there. People don't have to be afraid of us and Jesus was like that.

This woman with the issue of blood, the law said that if a person touched a person with an issue of blood, this person immediately ended up being impure and in a moment I will tell you why, but this woman touched Jesus and He did not he stood there scandalized because she touched him, no, he called her and said: I want to talk to you, what is in your heart? you have to be simple, the Gospel is simple.

The fact is that when the Lord sees Plunder, he does not think of his crime, of his sin, but rather he saw his effort, he saw the desperate effort to have contact with him, he saw his willingness to overcome obstacles, he understood this crowd prevents him from seeing and this man is willing to humiliate himself to see me, he has a need. I'm going to see him, I want communication with him.

Brother: God honors hard-working people, people who overcome obstacles and one of the biggest obstacles, do you know what it is? it is boredom and routine. I say that because I also believe that many of us are willing to do heroic things at times, but do you know what is one of the great obstacles of God's people? that we come to Church Sunday after Sunday and it kind of becomes something familiar, and on Wednesdays the same, and already then we kind of start to underestimate the importance of it, and then it kind of is more like: well if I can, if not, etc., and the same also happens with all other areas of our life.

One of the biggest obstacles to greatness, to serving the Lord, to preparing to serve the Lord is that, it is the ability to overcome routine and continue with discipline, to do things not because we want to do them because it is tasty to do them but because it suits God's order, it suits spiritual growth, discipline in the Christian life is very important; Giving to the Lord, reserving our tithe no matter what to give it to the Lord, coming to the House of God and punctuating our life Sunday after Sunday, Wednesday after Wednesday because it is good to be in the House of God and because it is convenient to worship the Lord . It doesn't matter what your feelings think, it doesn't matter what you feel in your heart, it doesn't matter if you feel happy or not, you serve the Lord, you give to the Lord and you overcome that obstacle, and so it is with the other things in life, God honors, God sees the small gestures and it is those gestures that no one else sees that many times uncover and unleash the blessing and the Power of God in our lives.

These are the people who grow, these are the people who are blessed by God, these are the people that God enjoys honoring in public, the person who does things that thinks: no one will see me but God sees you and God discerns. your heart, the widow who gave the offering in the temple, nobody saw her, what she was giving was a milaña as we also say in another Dominican, she was a little thing, she was not giving much and she thought: nobody is going to give me seeing that is not important, but the Lord was looking at her from up there on the balcony when she threw in those 25 cents and said: This woman gave everything she had and I am going to bless her, and look at us here 2000 years later still mentioning her to she.

God honors the little things. How are the movements of your heart? That is the most important thing in life, it is your willingness to give the Lord the best, although you may not expect much from this gesture, but it is what is appropriate and it is what must be done and you are going to do it because it is important to do it, not it matters how you feel.

Plunder was greatly blessed, this woman was greatly blessed, both had a great need as Bartimaeus also had: Lord Son of David have mercy on me he says it ten times, Jesus does nothing, ignores it and the disciples begin and the people: leave him alone, don't you see that he is not answering you? don't bother him, he doesn't have that on his agenda, he keeps shouting he doesn't care because he wants to be healed from his sight and the Lord stops; he heard it the first time but wanted to know the extent of his willingness and need, if he was willing to continue asking until he received what he needed. Brothers, let's live like this every day of our lives.

Many times God takes time to answer us, not because he does not want to answer us the first time, but because he wants to teach us something, he wants to test us, he wants to know if you truly value what you are asking for, do you believe that I can truly do it, are you willing? to truly pay the price for what you are saying you want or are you going to let yourself be frightened by the first attack that doesn't work?

God does not honor indolent people brothers, people who give up too easily in life, there is a part that we have to do and that God will not do it if you do not do your part, you have to pay a price for all the great things in life and sometimes we believe that God is a magic wand that if you move it or say hocus pocus the blessing will come immediately.

God does not want to breed parasites, if God gave us all things from the moment we open our mouths he puts a pacifier in our mouths, we never grow, we never develop emotionally. You know? Psychologists say if your child, your baby, immediately screams and you put the bottle in, he never develops psychologically or emotionally, you have to let him cry and discover that his mother and he are two different things because when the baby is born he is so attached to the physically, a mother who believes that she is a single unit and that is the case, then in order to develop psychologically and emotionally she needs distance, and the same happens with God.

This woman spent twelve years with an issue of blood and God did not answer her, perhaps because she did not ask first, she went to see all the doctors, she did everything she could, there was no answer, but God had a plan for her. There are times when God wants to do a miracle in our life He waits and waits and cooks it over a slow fire, that is one of the things that bothers me about the Lord and when I get up there I am going to ask him why he did that, because many times the things that we want the most He takes time and we are there cooking over a slow fire and He calms down there because He has His time to do things because He has His time to do things and many Sometimes He wants through this waiting process to take us to a certain level of depth, to a certain level of introspection, to prepare us to receive the miracle.

Many times if God gives you a miracle at this moment you are going to waste it because you cannot appreciate it. Sometimes He wants you to reach a certain level of maturity through waiting so He can give you what you need so you can appreciate it, use it, and not waste it.

And the miracle was not only for her, the miracle was for us too because do you know how many people this woman has inspired through the centuries with her example, her story, how many people have found inspiration in this woman's story? she did not know that she was going to be a heroine in a narrative that was going to run through the centuries and God wanted to prepare that miracle very well so that it would have all the impact it needed to have.

God wants to do things in your life. Perhaps what you have been asking the Lord for so much through so many years and has not yet arrived, it is not that God did not listen to you the first time, it is not that God does not have every intention of blessing you and granting you the miracle, it is simply that he is waiting for the right moment to give it to you and perhaps he is testing you to see if you are truly worthy of what you are asking for and are ready and willing to pay the price.

This woman had to overcome many obstacles. The law, if you read Leviticus chapter 15, I think it's beginning with verse 25, the Mosaic law clearly said that if a woman had an issue of blood, what is an issue of blood? It's a medical condition, it's vaginal bleeding. Excuse the expression if it's too violent for the service, but it's something natural, right? she had a flow of blood, a slight but continuous internal bleeding and that weakened her.

A flow of blood had two terrible consequences, number one physically is how you lose blood. Imagine a bucket, you put a bucket and a drop continually falling on that bucket, in about three or four hours it is half full and that's what happened to her, she bled slowly, continuously, she had a terrible physical weakness, perhaps she was thin, yellowish and She didn't have the strength to work, she was disabled, imagine in these times without medicine, what could she do?

Imagine the frustration that woman felt, if she was married, the limitations she had in her physical life, terrible. But most terrible of all, the law said that when a woman was on her period she was supposedly impure, so technically she was continuously impure, she and anyone she touched was also made impure by being in contact with her, she She wasn't supposed to walk among people like lepers because everyone she touched would make them unclean and it was against civil law and religious law for her to come into contact with.

So for her to get into the crowd and to get in, imagine this woman in a large group of people getting in and pushing herself, and trying to get to where the Lord was, everyone she touched if they caught her and found out she was in serious trouble but she didn't care about that, she had a need, she was desperate, she had tried all the doctors and there was no solution, and she was not going to accept the alternative of living the rest of her life in that condition knowing that perhaps this man had the solution, and what was in it was a very great and very powerful faith.

And your faith, brothers, that is something else, I believe that your faith was not a perfect faith, it was a superstitious faith. She thought that if she touched the cloth of the man with power, it was like something magical right? It's like when you say in our countries, right? you go to the sorcerer and they make you something and a drink or a candle and whatever, and they prepare it for you, and then you think that if you touch it and have it in your house that it's going to have strength.

It is like the Bible that is open to Psalm 21. How many do we know in our countries? You go to a house and they have the Bible open to Psalm 21 and you tell them, what does that Psalm say? on the 23rd, and you don't know what to say, but they think that if they have the Bible open, smoke will come out of the Bible and drive away the evil spirits or they take the saint and turn it upside down so that it can grant them a miracle, superstition.

This woman knew that Jesus was important, that he was powerful, that he was a wonderful being, but she did not understand the theology behind Jesus. She did not know that he was the Son of God who has come into the world to die for us, that his substitutionary death was going to give us salvation and eternal life and that if she put her faith in Him as the Son of God her sin was going to be , she did not know anything about that, there were no pastors to teach her anything, there were no theologians, she only knew that this man had a strange power and that he had healed others, and that she needed healing.

And what does that tell us? It also tells us something else about the mercy of God. God is not looking for perfect people, God is looking for people of faith, desperate people, daring people, people who want something from Him and who are willing to pay the price and put themselves at risk to receive what God has for their lives, in that process there is a lot of agony, a lot of anguish and that is why many of us do not jump into it. How many have a vision in their life and are willing to live it until they see it realized and pay the price for it?

If you don't strive for something you really want, you won't get anywhere, you'll spend your whole life setting goals and never reaching any of them. Although this woman was imperfect, she did not clearly understand what Jesus was, there was an intuition in her and what God saw was her raw faith, her raw material of believing in Him and of being willing to pay the price of overcoming the inertia of being at home and say: well, what if I take all these risks and in the end nothing comes out? I'm going to have to put on all these clothes and get dressed and do this and that for an adventure.

What sometimes puts us up the most in life is that of breaking the inertia of zero and launching ourselves to walk as far as we have to go in life and God is seeing that every minute, and He decides if he is going to bless you or not according to your willingness to risk something for what you want. What is your goal in life, what do you want to achieve in life or do you want to live your life just improvising every day?

If you have a goal, are you willing to pay the price to live according to that goal every day of your life? every day go out into the street and say: today I am going to get a little closer to that vision because I believe that God is powerful to bless me and even if you make mistakes, even if you are not clear about what you want, even if you yourself are imperfect What God wants to see is that piece of incandescent throbbing coal inside you, that is what God is looking for, that we establish strong goals in Him and that every day we go and say: Lord I come to present my need to you day after day, day after day.

Look at Scripture from Genesis to Revelation and you will see those desperate characters who stood their ground and did not give up in the face of refusal until they received what they needed, that is one of the great themes of all Scripture, the person who persists in his goals and in his need and that he shows integrity, and that he receives from God what he needs because he still fought with God himself, Jacob fought with the angel all night and said to him: I will not leave you until you bless me, look let me go I have to go, no, I'm not going to leave you, I want a blessing from you, I want to hear that word: I bless you.

And he knows that the angel blessed him but also dislocated his hip, he says that Jacob walked all his life with a limp but that limp was a gold medal, it was a decoration that this man had, his fight with the angel, no one else fought or will fight but with an angel he won't even defeat him, he says he defeated him because he had to give him what he asked for, that's why they changed his name, they changed his name from Jacob to Israel because he fought with God.

Are we willing to fight with God to receive what we want and He has told us it is ours? Are we willing to pay the price? Are we willing to overcome the obstacles that people put up, that even the Church itself and religion put up? Many times when you are pursuing a goal, the first thing they are going to tell you is: stop that, boy, you have tried too hard.

The law here told her: do not approach Jesus and she did not accept, her need was much more pressing than her fear and the indefinite consequences of what she was going to do. And when she came up and got close to the Lord I imagine she reached out as far as she could and just touched the hem of His cloak.

Did you know that pious rabbis and Jews used to wear a vest tucked in their clothes and their bangs stuck out? four fringes in the four corners of the suit, I think it's called a talid, I don't remember the name but they were fringes with little knots at the end in four parts of her undergarment, and experts in Scripture say that's what she came to Touch one of those little threads, but your faith is enough to activate the power of Christ.

And there is another interesting thing, the Lord says that when she touched the hem of His cloak two things happened: she immediately felt that her blood had stopped and she shuddered, the power of Christ was so great. I wonder: if one were to touch, let's say, one of those electricity deposits there, you go down the road and you see some dynamos, some metallic masses that are enclosed by something and it says danger, don't touch that because that's electricity, why ? because they have electricity inside them, their nature is to be electric, if you touch any of it if you come into contact it burns it.

The Lord is power, the Lord is a superabundant source of power and if we have enough faith it is more, I believe that words are superfluous. This is one of the few miracles in which there is no Word, the Lord did not spit and put his fingers in her eyes, the Lord did not put his hands in her ears as he did, the Lord did not tell her to get well, the Lord He did not say stop blood, the Lord did not say to him: daughter, your faith makes you safe and therefore go you are healthy, nothing, nothing, just a touch, a light touch because that is the power of faith and that is the Power of God.

Do you know that we can do without all the prayers in the world if we only have faith to believe the Lord? the gospel is simple. I believe that the less faith there is, the longer the prayers are. I say to the Lord: help me to come the day when my life is a prayer, that I have so much intimacy with you that silence is the best way to express my requests before You, or if we reach that point of having so much communion with God that words are superfluous, that communion is internal with God, from the time we get up until we go to bed our life is a prayer, the flow of our blood, the beating of our hearts, the internal movements of our biology , everything will shout: Lord I adore you, Lord I bless you, Lord I love you, Lord I am yours, Lord I wish you, Lord I want to serve you, I want to be yours, to be glorified.

That our biology adore the Lord, that it be in contact with God because when this is the case, words are superfluous, according to our faith, less magic formulas are perfected, less long prayers, less sacrifice, simply being in direct contact with God.

This woman had a faith, an imperfect faith but a living faith, she touched that reservoir of power that was Jesus, she put her finger in the plug and boom! Immediately she felt a shudder, no one had to tell her or certify that she had been healed, she knew that she knew that she knew that she had been healed because she had been in direct contact with the power that was Jesus, hallelujah.

And the wonderful thing is that it was like the Lord was robbed of the Lord's power frankly, he robbed the Lord of power, it must be said that way. Do you know that God is mysterious, mysterious, mysterious? we have more power than we think to affect the heart of God. One thing I love about this passage is that it teaches me how important the human being is to affect the heart of God and to do things that God perhaps did not have in His intention or on His agenda. I am not a theologian so I can give myself the freedom to say scandalous things like the one I just said because I do see clearly that we can affect God's agenda with our prayers and our faith.

Look, this woman was not on Jesus' agenda, who was there? Jairus. Jairo was the principal of the synagogue, the important man, the man who receives miracles. Who is the one who receives the miracles usually? the people of power. Bill Gates gets miracles, we don't qualify, God's agenda is different. If you have faith you can put yourself in front of the president of England or whatever, France because faith is the great equalizer, faith makes the little ones great and a lack of faith makes the great insignificant.

This woman stopped Jesus because her faith was so powerful that she changed. Sometimes I think that, I said something this morning when we started the service and then I corrected myself, I said: we are the ones that God wants us to be here, I don't know if you remember that because generally people don't pay attention so I don't It would be surprising if not, but I said it, I pay attention to myself: those of us who God wants to be here are here, and then I said: wait, that's not true, not necessarily because perhaps there are others that God called but are not there, and new: if you're seeing me on the internet I don't want to blame anyone or anything but it's true! many are called and few are chosen says the Word.

There are many people that God wants to worship him every Sunday or Wednesday, there are many people who want to be saved, there are many who could be great preachers or pastors but are not willing to pay the price, so they remain small because they were not willing to go to a discipleship class, to go to a seminar, they were not willing to turn off the television and read a good book, so the Will of God, but why? because God does not impose himself on a person. You are important, you are not a puppet that God manipulates you as He wants. He respects your freedom, respects your freedom to bless you and also respects your freedom so that you lose yourself if you do not make the right decision in your life. , He is not going to force you to do anything and your heart can affect the heart of God, that's how important you are, because if you are willing to pay the price God is willing to change His agenda even for you to bless you.

That's what she did, this woman stole power from Jesus, she stole power and kept it for herself, and the Lord stopped because he felt the shock, that's why I say we can affect the agenda, we can affect God's feelings, the Lord felt that something had come out of Him.

Look at so many people who had touched him, that's why again, Peter tells him: but Lord, how do you say who touched you if the whole world is touching you? no, He said: Not here someone touched me in a different way, here someone touched me with faith. In a Church there may be hundreds of people singing the same choir but perhaps four or five affect the heart of God because they sing in a different way. When you sing to the Lord, it will be better that you sing with all your heart, with all your mind and with all your strength, think about what you are singing, do not sing like a parrot simply repeating vain words, sing with your heart, meditate on what What are you saying, think about what you just said so that your faith affects the heart of the Lord, if your heart is adequate the Lord will listen to you as if you were the only one in the room.

I believe in that meticulous God, I believe in that God attentive to details, I believe in that God who discerns the difference between a minor tone and a major tone, I believe in a God who knows how to discern the slightest fluctuations of a heart human and that is why we have to like him. Do not neglect God or take too many things for granted, God is a very delicate and careful God, and your life, your heart, your motives, the most intimate movements of your soul affect the heart of God, that is why you have to live with be careful before Him and make sure that you serve him with all your mind, your heart, that you love him above all things, that you prefer him, that you confess him in front of the strongest and most powerful people. If they don't like that, it's their problem and God will say: Here I have a son who prefers Me over men and for that I am going to bless him and honor him.

This woman changed Jesus' course, His agenda, His heart, His story because she had powerful faith and was willing to pay the price, and she walked away with her healing in hand. The latest, right? and I cannot suppress this detail is that the Lord did not allow her to leave feeling clandestine, feeling that she was now returning to her ordinary life except that now she was healthy, the Lord wanted to dignify her because we have such a generous Christ. I am moved by the heart of the Lord so merciful, so special.

He didn't want that woman to go back to living the anonymous life she had lived for twelve years, to leave again, slip into the crowd, return now without any problem to her house to eat a can of Campbell's soup because she didn't She had friends for the last twelve years, He wanted to bless her and tell her: look, you have blessed me and you have done something daring, I have valued your life, your faith and your feelings.

He stopped her and said: look, what did you do? I believe that He knew, I believe that Jesus had to know even who had touched him, or was it that His incarnation sometimes the mysteries of the incarnation He knew some things and perhaps not others as a man, we don't know, but He wanted to have a personal intimate moment with her and wanted to minister to her soul, her emotions, not just her body. That is why the Lord we serve is so wow, I love him more every day because he is so beautiful, so merciful, so generous, so gentle and he does not get tired of giving me the cravings of my heart to my life even though I don't deserve it He is a detailed God, a God of cravings.

He told her: come talk to me and she could then talk to him and confess what she had done. Who knows if he also confessed to her pain that she had had, who knows if he told her: I have been alone all my life, I was desperate, I came to You waiting for the last chance, the last resort, and I believe that in that confession there was healing for she of all her pain, of all her indignity that she had suffered and the Lord touched her, healed her soul as well, healed her spirit, healed her emotions, healed her shame, she was many things. God's healings are multiple and according to your faith it will be done to you.

Perhaps you are asking the Lord for one thing that is the most you aspire to and God wants to give you the world, God wants to give you the Earth, God wants to give you up to half of His Kingdom because the God we have is not known. get tired of blessing, according to your faith it will be done to you.

If this morning you receive a teaching, receive that teaching, you can affect the heart of God, your effort has power, the quality of your life touches God, if you are willing to overcome obstacles you can achieve your goals, you have a merciful God that although it is not perfect He loves you and His purpose nothing can steal it from you, there are many wonderful things that we can hear from this passage.

Maybe also bring your needs to the red hot, bring your requests to the red hot and ask yourself, are my requests hot enough to affect the heart of God or am I still halfway through and need to pray more, cry more, ask for more, cry more before God, desire things more, be more agonizing, be more daring, be more determined, honor God with my warrior's heart, and remember that no matter how small you are, your faith makes you greater than the greater than men if you believe in the Lord.

Lower your head, leave here with a purpose in your life to achieve your goals in the Name of the Lord, reach the maximum in your life, set goals, believe in great things, dare to believe the Lord, your faith affects the heart of God, your faith changes destinations, your faith can change history, your faith, your effort can lead you to scale heights that you would never dare to think you could reach.

I don't care where you come from, I don't care about your family background, I don't care that you haven't studied, I don't care that you are illiterate, God doesn't care about any of those things to bless his children, what matters it is how his heart is, how is his affection towards him and what price is he willing to pay to achieve what he wants in the Name of the Lord.

Thank you Lord I adore you, I bless you, install Your Word in our hearts, sow that seed in me, first in me Lord it begins with me, create for yourself a warrior people Father, create for yourself a people that lives up to the excellence of the Gospel, of the call terrible that we have received, create a people at the height of this sublime Word that You have given us Lord, a people of excellence Father who believes you, who gives you honor, we thank you, we bless you, we exalt you Lord Jesus, thank you Father, thank you.
