The truth is that God created man in His image with special parts in the body performing diverse functions (Genesis 1:27; Romans 12:4). He created us with hands performing functions of touch, lifting, eating, and drinking, amongst others. This means God has hands that are used for His purposes such as touching, fighting (1 Samuel 5:6), and granting favor. (Neh. 2:8) and lifting for His glory.
Brethren, everything about God is power, his hand and the touch show forth power unto wonders. The whole body of Christ is a great gift to the human race. If Jesus looks at anyone, there is power in His eyes. If He sits in any house, the house becomes the place of His power. Anywhere He stands becomecentre to encounter God’s power. God’s hand is the hand of authority, power, miracles/wonders, and blessings (Exodus 15:6; Mathew 19:13-15).
If you receive His touch or you touch Him with faith, great power from above will be released into your life or situation unto wonders. When God touches anything or anyone, it brings forth testimonies.
God can in any way touch His people for good. Divine touch means an encounter with the Most High for diverse answers and miracles. Jesus Christ touched the 10 lepers with
His spoken words unto healing (Luke 17:11), delivered the man with unclean spirit (Mark 1:23-24), opened blind eyes (Mark 10:51-52), and gave life to the dead (Mark 9:25-27). God is sovereign and He decides whichever ways He wants to perform his wonders. It might be wonders through somebody touching Him by faith such as the woman with the issue of blood (Mark 5:25- 26) or God touching someone unto miracles or wonders(Mark 8:22-25).
Brethren, this night God has decided to stretch out His mighty hand to touch you just at the point of your needs or challenges miracles. Expect by faith His touch upon your life as you tarry in His presence this night. May we all experience His divine touch for good tonight. He will surely touch you in Jesus’ name. Amen.
Divine touch: From immemorial, we have had people having Midas touch on an issue, project, or business. For example, if anyone dabbles into a business where someone has experienced constant failure but another person excels or succeeds, he/she will be called a”man with Midas touch.”
Who then is Midas and what is Midas touch? Midas is a king of Phrygia of ancient times. He consulted his spiritualists who needed a magic power that would turn whatever thing he touched into gold which he got. He touched a chair and it became gold, he touched a tree it became gold even his daughter and shebecame gold.
From there, people started using it as a phrase for anyone who touches any business that turns out to be successful as a man/woman with Midas touch… for a period and by a god (uncanny way to blessing). Now what we are focusing on is Divine touch…
From where is Divine Touch?
The word Divine is absolute to Almighty God, the Creator who was not created, the Author and Finisher of our life and faith, whose autobiography no one can write (Job 5:9; Gen.1:1.)
Divine touch is the touch of God that makes a difference matter who teaches you, no matter how you sing or pray until God touches you, you cannot be whole or be transformed. Divine touch is a touch of power and it is from God only.
What Divine Touch Can Do
