The bible talks about a woman who is sick for 12 years, no doctor can heal her, there's no medicine that will cure her, but she hears of Jesus that can heal the sick, raise the dead, and she hears that Jesus is going to be in her town. So she makes it near Him, but it's really crowded. She things if I just tough the hem of His garment I will be healed. So she somehow sneaks through the crowd and is able to touch just the outer edge of Jesus, but not even Him, just His clothes, and not really even His clothes, just the hem.
Don't we have more than the hem with in us? That was the question that the Lord impressed on me when I was praying for my sick daughter.
I believe 1 John 4:4 "You are of God little children...; greater is He who is in you than he that is in the world."
If Christ dwells in us, than He is greater, closer and more relevant that the hem of anything, we've got the Son of the living God in us!
Luke 8:40-48
40 So it was, when Jesus returned, that the multitude welcomed Him, for they were all waiting for Him. 41 And behold, there came a man named Jairus, and he was a ruler of the synagogue. And he fell down at Jesus’ feet and begged Him to come to his house, 42 for he had an only daughter about twelve years of age, and she was dying.
But as He went, the multitudes thronged Him. 43 Now a woman, having a flow of blood for twelve years, who had spent all her livelihood on physicians and could not be healed by any, 44 came from behind and touched the border of His garment. And immediately her flow of blood stopped.
45 And Jesus said, “Who touched Me?”
When all denied it, Peter and those with him[a] said, “Master, the multitudes throng and press You, and You say, ‘Who touched Me?’”[b]
46 But Jesus said, “Somebody touched Me, for I perceived power going out from Me.” 47 Now when the woman saw that she was not hidden, she came trembling; and falling down before Him, she declared to Him in the presence of all the people the reason she had touched Him and how she was healed immediately.
48 And He said to her, “Daughter, be of good cheer;[c] your faith has made you well. Go in peace.”
