The Results of Trusting God

Mark 5:25–34 NKJV

25 Now a certain woman had a flow of blood for twelve years, 26 and had suffered many things from many physicians. She had spent all that she had and was no better, but rather grew worse. 27 When she heard about Jesus, she came behind Him in the crowd and touched His garment. 28 For she said, “If only I may touch His clothes, I shall be made well.” 29 Immediately the fountain of her blood was dried up, and she felt in her body that she was healed of the affliction. 30 And Jesus, immediately knowing in Himself that power had gone out of Him, turned around in the crowd and said, “Who touched My clothes?” 31 But His disciples said to Him, “You see the multitude thronging You, and You say, ‘Who touched Me?’ ” 32 And He looked around to see her who had done this thing. 33 But the woman, fearing and trembling, knowing what had happened to her, came and fell down before Him and told Him the whole truth. 34 And He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace, and be healed of your affliction.”

Intro: Last week, trusting God. Today, and next week, the results of trusting God.

Her problem. The effect on the problem:

a. Jewish law, unclean, could not marry, she could not worship in synagogue, she couldn't have physical contact with anyone. She was a outcast. This has gone on for 12 years.

b. Because of this disease (plague) she had no peace. Amp Distressing ailment. Affliction

VS 29 and 34 KJV the word plague is used. Same GW for a flogging or whipping. It was the word used to describe a Roman Soldier beating someone.

c. When someone had no peace with God It can make them feel beat down. No peace. This when we really need to trust on God.

d. A saved person has to first recognize that there is problem. That problem is sin.

e. A person can make some changes in their life style. That can be a good thing, but until they recognize their sin problem, there will be no peace.
