“…could in no way
raise herself up.” – Luke 13:11
In this verse Bible talks about a woman who had a spirit of
infirmity eighteen years and was bent over. Bible says she could in no way raise
herself up. One day Jesus saw her and called her to Him. He laid His hands upon
her and immediately she was made straight.
1.
Nothing is
impossible with God.
Her problem was a
huge one for her as she was bent over for eighteen long years. But then Jesus
healed her in a moment. Her sorrow and agony were gone in a moment when Jesus touched
her. “Your years of waiting and longing will be soon over”, says God to you as
nothing is impossible with Him. He will do wonders in a moment and will bring
joy into your life.
2.
Not by Might nor by Power,
but by God’s Spirit it will happen.
She was bent over
and she could in no way raise herself up. Her might and power could not help her
at all. But God healed her.
When Joseph was in prison,
he sought the help of a cupbearer to get out of the place. Bible says that
cupbearer forgot him until God interfered. Pharaoh said to his servants that
the Spirit of God is in Joseph and he gave him the entire control over Egypt. Joseph
rose to power not through his might but by God’s Spirit.
3.
You will be set free
from the bondage you are in.
“So ought not this woman… whom Satan has bound…be loosed from this
bond…?" - Luke 13:16
Jesus healed that
woman as He wanted to set her free from the bondage she was in for eighteen
years.
Even today Jesus
Christ longs to set you free from the bondage of sins, worries and pain that
you are in. He will set you free. You will not be bent over again because of
your guilt and sorrow. Your head will be raised.
All you have to do
is just go and stand before God in prayer. He will look at you and He will do great
things in your life. Your sorrows will turn to joy.
