Stretch Out Your Hand

My Utmost For His Highest
 
‘Our Lord said to the man with the withered hand, “Stretch out your hand” (Matthew 12:13). As soon as the man did so, his hand was healed. But he had to take the initiative. If we will take the initiative to overcome, we will find that we have the inspiration of God, because He immediately gives us the power of life.’ CHAMBERS
 
When we read about Jesus healing people we read the words .. “Your faith has made your whole”.  We must exercise faith to see God act.  Faith is the initiative that Chambers is referring to.  Israel had to step into the water for the Jordan river to back up.  God provides the opportunity, but we must respond in faith.  What is it that you are facing that seems insurmountable?  Put your faith in God.  Be obedient to what He is telling you to do.  Stretch out your hand …
