IntroductionIn this section, you will read the stories of people who have received help from God. Jesus was sent by God the Father, and he was anointed by the Spirit of God, to do something about our condition. Jesus, the Son of God, is authorized and empowered to do something about every condition people face. The Lord Jesus comes to share good news that God saves, to set free captives from their bondages and addictions, to heal the sick, and to release the discouraged and oppressed (Luke 4:18-19). Jesus is still touching people today and changing lives. God does this in many different ways. Sometimes, the Lord sovereignly touches people. At other times, the Spirt of Christ uses another person to be a helper, to bring a touch, to release grace, or to be an instrument of God’s blessing. May you be encouraged as your read these stories. May you come to the realization that God loves you and wants to touch you like he touches others. And, may you become an agent of his touch and blessing in the earth today. We pray that God’s kingdom will come, and that his will be done on earth today as it is in heaven (Matthew 6:10).
