  • Wounds Can Make A Difference

    Wounds

    Main Text: Mark 5:25 -35 (NLT)

     

    Verse of the week:

      Psalm 147:3 “He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds”

     

     

    1. Defined

      Know whose you are.  

       

      Mark 5:34 “He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well”.  

       

       

      1. Disqualified 

        Your pain qualifies you to relate and minster to others. 

         

        Romans 8:28 “God causes everything to work together for the good”

         

         

        1. Determined 

          Mark 5:27 “she came behind him through the crowd and touched Jesus”  

           

          Press on, don’t let anyone or anything keep you from Jesus. 

           

          Philippians 3:14 “press on to reach the end and receive the prize” 

           

          1. Delivered 

            Mark 5: 29 “immediately the fountain of her blood was dried up, and she felt in her body that she was healed of the affliction.” & 33 “fell down before him and told him the whole truth”

             

            It’s only when we admit that we are broken that God can bring us into his divine care and deliver us.

                  • Jesus was wounded for me.

                    2.  Privileges we enjoy.  

                    • We have forgiveness.

                      “your sins have separated you from God; your sins have hidden His face from you” Isaiah 59:2

                          “with His stripes we are healed” Isaiah 53:5


                          “healed” – the picture of sewing/mending a person who has a wound; stitching a person up so they will heal


                          "He heals their broken hearts and bandages their wounds.”

                          “they took Joseph and threw him into the pit. Now the pit was empty,

                          will walk in forgiveness.
                          “you planned evil against me but God used those same plans for my
                          good. He brought me to this position so I could save the lives of many
                          people.” Genesis 50:20

                          “Don’t let evil conquer you, but conquer evil by doing good.”
                          Romans 12:21
                          “Trust in the LORD with all your heart and do not lean on your own
                          understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will direct
                          your paths.” Proverbs 3:5 & 6
                          3. God will always walk with you

                          toward him; but his bow remained firm, and his arms were
                          strengthened by the hands of the Mighty One of Jacob, by the
                          Shepherd, the Rock of Israel.” Genesis 49:23 & 24

                          Verse of the Week: “And His name will be the hope of all the world.”                                                                                 Matthew 12:21           
                          1.  Servant of God
                          “Behold, My Servant whom I have chosen”               Matthew 12:18
                          “Servant” – a servant or attendant, specifically for a king
                          • Depend on their masters
                            • “31 Do not worry then, saying, ‘What are we to eat?’ or ‘What are we to drink?’ or ‘What are we to wear for clothing?’ 32 For the Gentiles eagerly seek all these things; for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. 33 But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be provided to you.”                 Matthew 6:31 – 33
