About This Message
A synagogue ruler falls at Jesus' feet for his dying daughter. On the way, a woman bleeding for twelve years touches His robe and is healed. Jesus stops for her. Then He raises the girl. Two nested stories — Jesus stops for the hidden and raises the hopeless.
“"Don't be afraid. Just have faith, and she will be healed."”— Luke 8:50
Key Points
- 1
Jairus was a synagogue ruler — a man with status who laid it all down at the feet of Jesus.
- 2
The woman was unnamed, unclean by law, and had spent everything on doctors who could not help.
- 3
"Who touched me?" — Jesus stopped. In a pressing crowd, one person's faith made Him turn.
- 4
"Your faith has healed you." She was not just physically healed but publicly restored.
- 5
"The child is not dead but asleep." Jesus speaks over death as though it is temporary — because for Him, it is.
