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, came from behind and touched the border of His garment. And immediately her flow of blood stopped. And Jesus said, "Who touched Me?" When all denied it, Peter and those with him said, "Master, the multitudes throng and press You, and You say, 'Who touched Me?' (Luke 8:43-45)
Going by this account there were atleast two categories of people around Jesus at that time. Those who pressed and thronged (spectators) surprisingly, including the disciples then and that who TOUCHED (and was made whole). Jesus asked the question "Who touched Me?" The disciples said there were a thousand and one people pressing you. How could you have asked such question.
But Jesus said, "Somebody touched Me, for I perceived power going out from Me."(Luke 8:46) You need to touch Jesus before experiencing His Healing and Miracle working POWER. You need to stop pressing with the multitude but make up your mind to touch Him like never before and have fresh encounter with the Holy Spirit. How? Through your dedication, prayer, praise and worship. The woman was totally transformed. (Luke 8:47-48), He is waiting for you because you are next on line.
Some people are too used to their Men of God that they do not get connected to his anointing. In this case familiarity becomes a hindrance. A stranger can come in and get what no one ever thought was there. Do not let your closeness to a Man of God make you look down on what God is doing through him. The Bible says Christ did not do many miracles in his hometown because of their unbelief. Folks, get connected. May our miracle never pass us bye in Jesus name.
Remember the LORD IS GOOD.

ARE YOU TRULY IN CONTROL?
I shall not die, but live, And declare the works of the LORD. (Psalms 118:17)
The Word of God concerning you declares that YOU (put your name) will not die prematurely either by sickness, disease or pestilence, accident and attack from the enemy camp. Jehovah God through His Son, Jesus is committed to this. Whatsoever, He has said concerning you will certainly come to pass except you abort His plan and purpose. His Word will never return to Him Void, but must be accomplished. Can we hear a loud AMEN. (Psalm 91:1-2) Declare upon your self, wife/husband, children, family and everyone related to you that you (they) will not die before your (their) time.
The "mother chicken" is always willing to protect her children against external aggression, but sometimes they are not obedient to her move. (John 17:11-17) You have a role to play in order to be alive till your appointed time. How? There are some things that shorten life and kill people before their time. Experience has shown that the affected people either die alone or some times carry innocent people along unconsciously. It include cases such as:
---Careless driving and dangerous overtaking.
---Driving while under the influence of alcohol.
---Sending or reading text message on mobile phone while driving or reading news paper while on the steering. To mention a few.
If you are not guilty of any of the above mention, then you are a perfect man/woman. In your perfect state, what happens to other road users who are guilty? There is the need to pray vehemently so that you don't meet such people who are not better than "ACCIDENT" looking for where to occur. (Psalm 91:3-10)
It is however, not sufficient to live, but you must live to glorify Him and declare the works of the Lord in order to fulfill the purpose of creation-- to worship Him and lift up His banner by the day. If the four living creatures, 24 Elders, Angels and the heavenly host are honoring and thanking Him 24/7(Revelation 4:8-11) Why wouldn't I? Is your life glorifying Him? If yes! Congratulations. But if no! Make necessary amendment now and turn to JESUS CHRIST OF NAZARETH and proclaim His Name and His WORD round the world. He is truly in control.

A GOOD NAME IS TO BE CHOSEN RATHER THAN GREAT RICHES (PROVERBS 22:1)
A [good] name is to be chosen rather than great riches, Loving favor rather than silver and gold. (Proverbs 22:1)
No doubt, there is enough trouble in the world today especially as it affects the economy of Nations that ultimately touches individuals such that if care is not taken someone can easily be drag 'crazy' to do what is not right in the name of making money or ends meet. The scripture says what shall it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his soul.
Our appeal goes to someone reading this text, planning to embark on something that do not glorify God to please think twice and ask yourself genuine question(s). Will what I am about to do or already doing glorify God? What will people say about His (Jesus) name as a truly born again christian? Will someone be encouraged or discouraged if my deed comes into the open? As His ambassador, representing Christ on earth, referred to as Christian (Christ alike or follower of christ), you need not misrepresent Him by dragging His name to the mud. As emphasized earlier, this message is for one or very few person(s). There are a lot of people already standing on the Word of God and His promises concerning them. He says, all that concerns you, He will perfect. Nothing good shall be withhold from you with condition 'uprightness'. (Psalm 84:11) Check yourself probably you are not fulfilling your own part of the contract as for Him, He remained the only faithful God.
Ensure you do not move faster than God or behind Him so that you will not need to wait for Him or He waiting for you as the case may be. But move side by side with Him such that He can lift you up where there seems to be trouble. Righteousness and Holiness are His watch word. Do not allow this temporary economic challenge to push you out of God's commandment but trust Him with your situation He will certainly see you through. It is pertinent to note that you are not the only person affected. We are all involved but the effect differs because He is the only burden lifter and yoke breaker. He takes care of His Own.
A good name [is] better than precious ointment------(Ecclesiastes 7:1) If it is dented for whatever reason by the time you intend to redeem, it may not be easy or possible. You are the image of God and His name means so much in you and yours means so much to Him. Do not do anything that will affect it.
