You Answered Me

It is not too late to receive your miracle. Your circumstances are not too far gone. Jesus has power to heal and resurrect. When Jairus found Jesus, he thought he just needed a healing miracle, but what Jesus had in mine was something far greater, He was going to resurrect Jairus's daughter.

I have often found that God's first priority before answering our prayers is to build our faith. We know from reading the Bible that nothing is impossible, but in order to receive, there must be a building process, a growing in faith, not giving up. Jairus knew Jesus could heal his daughter, but that faith had to turn from 'head' knowledge to an absolute unshakable conviction that Jesus could work the miracle no matter how dire the circumstance. When Jairus was told "Your daughter is dead, there is no use troubling the Teacher now". Jesus immediately turned to Jairus and said, "Don't be afraid, just trust Me."

Believer, YOU are so near to the answer in your own life. Why look at the problems which make the fulfilment impossible? Look to Jesus believing He is able to answer every prayer.

'When I am weak You make me strong. When I am tired You give me strength. Lord lift me up so I can see, how wonderful You are to me. You answered me when I have called. When I was sad You made me glad. You quench my thirst from Your hidden stream. You've touched my heart with Your love and peace.' - You Answered Me by Vinesong

Your Father's Love

The Lord is like a Father to His children, tender and compassionate. He is mindful of us, watching our every step. God has promised to take care of you 'as a father cares for his children'. The Bible even says that God knows every sparrow that falls to the ground and even the hairs on your head are numbered - that is how close His relationship with you is! God wants us to come to Him for help. He will hear even the faintest cry. Just as a mother learns how to recognise the different cries of her baby: she knows when the baby is hungry, or tired, or needs a nappy change, or just needs comfort, so God recognises the need you express by your every cry for help!

Jesus told us to call God 'our Father', and in the Bible He Himself is described as a 'Son of God'. We are sons and daughters of God! This is why we have the right to approach Him and talk to Him personally, as we would with any father. The miracle of the Gospel which Jesus brought in the New Testament is of a direct access to God. In the Old Testament it was necessary to come to God through a priest, but the good news of the New Testament is that God sent His Son to be born as a baby, to live and work as one of us, to show that all the barriers are broken down and we have direct access to a Heavenly Father. For this reason, when Jesus died, the veil of the Jewish Temple, which separated between God and man and could only be accessed by a holy priest, was split in two, thus opening the way to God without hindrance!

Deuteronomy 4:29-30 says, 'If from where you are…when you are in distress and all these things have happened to you…if you seek Him you will find Him!'

Call on the Name of the Lord


If you are sick and need a healing touch from Jesus, I want to pray with you. I am not a healer: I can't heal anybody. Jesus is the healer. Believe in Him, trust Jesus, and you will be healed. Jesus is alive, He loves you, He wants to heal you. The Bible says, 'whosoever will call on the Name of the Lord will be saved'. If you need this healing touch call upon Jesus.
