Before You Go // Missing Peace (Part 2) // Tim Ross

Main message: Before you leave your season of pain, bring it into the open — Jesus wants to make you seen, restore your identity, and give you peace and immediate healing when faith reaches him (even by touching what is touching him).

Key points:

• The sermon centers on the woman with the issue of blood (12 years): sustained suffering, failed doctors, and how she pressed through the crowd to touch the hem of Jesus' garment.
• Her certainty — "If I touch his clothes, I shall be healed" — models bold, expectant faith; healing came "right away."
• Jesus stopped the procession so she would be seen, called her "daughter," and pronounced both healing and shalom (peace) — healing plus recognition/identity are both important.
• Don’t let a long-term condition become your identity; choose your inner narrative and refuse to be defined by the problem.
• You must tell the whole truth about your journey (not a vague, edited testimony) so your testimony can release others and secure your peace; being connected to someone touching Jesus can bring breakthrough.

Scriptures mentioned: Malachi 4, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Revelation 12
