A Breaking Rule Miracle and A Boundless Praise.

Morning fam, another sunny day filled with joy and laughter. Depending on your country and the time you'll be listening or reading, you might be in a different season or time zone. But today's bread breaks all the rules and barriers.
Father thank you for your bread and love. Thank you for calling us your sons and daughters, we truly are your family and you are our Papa. We come to rest in your bosom and allow you to nourish us, we receive your love and we love you also, Amen.
Let's break bread:
Luke 12:10-13(NLT)
10 One Sabbath day as Jesus. Was teaching in a synagogue,
11 he saw a woman who had been crippled by an evil spirit. She had been bent double for eighteen years and was unable to stand up, straight.
12 When Jesus saw her, he called her over and said, "Dear woman, you are healed of your sickness!"
13 Then he touched her, and instantly she could stand straight. How she praises God!
Brothers and sisters this miracle was done on a day set aside for rest, so the jews didn't perform any work on this day. But He broke all the rules and gave this dear woman, a daughter of Abraham (that's how Jesus calls her in verse 16) healing and freedom from the bondage of Satan.
Luke 12:16(NLT)
16 This dear woman, a daughter of Abraham, has been held in bondage by Satan for eighteen years. Isn't it right that she be released, even on the Sabbath?"
If you do a deep research in the culture of that time, women weren't given much care or special attention, usually separated in a different class. Jesus broke those rules too.
He saw her as a daughter of the Lord, one with an inheritance of healing and freedom and spoke to her with love saying, "Dear woman".
Other special things, I noticed in the text:
•He saw her- He paid attention
•He called her over- He knew her name and drew her near.
•He spoke to her lovingly- Words of healing and declaration of freedom.
•He touched her- An intimate relationship, to feel with love and cover with love. Warmth infusion and for you and I it points to how He feels our pain.
•An instant Miracle, she could stand straight, a sudden turn of events, after eighteen years of constant brokenness and now an immediate transformation, Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord!
•How she praises the Lord- Immediately in the midst of people, leaders and all eyes, she praised God, unshakable, unquestionable praise. A joy filled praise. A thanksgiving praise. Don't forget to give thanks and shout it for all to hear.
Father today we will be seeing beautiful miracles, we know it's already done and we say thank you. Thank you for always keeping us in step with you, we love to love you, thank you for your boundless love and we offer a boundless praise from the depths of our heart.
If you want to have an intimate relationship with Jesus say with me:
Dear Jesus, come into my heart, I make you my Lord and Saviour, I repent of my sins, I believe you died on the cross to reconcile me back to God, I receive your love and new life, Amen.
Praise the Lord, you are healed and free.
