In the first part, we explored <strong>why Jesus, when He encountered the sinful woman, referred to her simply as &#8220;woman&#8221; <\/strong>not based on her appearance, age, or physical traits, but based on her <strong>gender and divine identity as a woman<\/strong>. The term <em>\u201cwoman\u201d<\/em> carried spiritual weight, highlighting that her encounter with Christ carried a message for all women.<\/p>\n<p>If you missed that first teaching, feel free to message me and I\u2019ll send it to you.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><strong>Today\u2019s Focus DAUGHTER<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>At other times in Scripture, Jesus refers to women not just as &#8220;women,&#8221; but tenderly and intimately as <strong>His &#8220;daughters.&#8221;<\/strong> Remarkably, some of these women may have been older than Jesus in age, yet He still called them <strong>&#8220;daughter&#8221; <\/strong>revealing that <strong>His perspective was spiritual, not physical<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Let us consider one key story to understand the divine message Jesus was communicating to the world through this woman:<\/p>\n<h3>Matthew 9:20\u201322 (ESV)<\/h3>\n<blockquote><p><em>20 And behold, a woman who had suffered from a discharge of blood for twelve years came up behind him and touched the fringe of his garment,<br \/>\n21 for she said to herself, \u201cIf I only touch his garment, I will be made well.\u201d<br \/>\n22 Jesus turned, and seeing her he said, \u201cTake heart, <strong>daughter<\/strong>; your faith has made you well.\u201d And instantly the woman was made well.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><strong>Why did Jesus call her \u201cdaughter\u201d?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>He could have called her \u201cwoman,\u201d \u201cmother,\u201d or \u201clady,\u201d yet He deliberately called her <strong>&#8220;daughter.&#8221;<\/strong> Why?<\/p>\n<p>Because of the <strong>unique and unwavering faith<\/strong> she demonstrated. Despite suffering for 12 years and spending all she had on physicians with no solution (Mark 5:25\u201326), she <strong>did not approach Jesus with skepticism or doubt<\/strong>. She didn\u2019t compare Him to the charlatans of her past. Instead, she believed completely in His power without demanding signs, words, or attention.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>She said <strong>not<\/strong>, &#8220;I hope I\u2019ll be healed,&#8221; or &#8220;Maybe He can help.&#8221;<br \/>\nShe said: <strong>\u201cI will be made well.\u201d<\/strong><br \/>\na declaration of total, confident <strong>faith<\/strong>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>She didn&#8217;t ask for prayers or a personal visit. She believed that simply <strong>touching the edge of His garment<\/strong> was enough.<\/p>\n<p>That kind of faith is what moved Jesus to call her <strong>\u201cMy daughter.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It was not a term of biological relation, but of <strong>spiritual intimacy and inheritance<\/strong>. By calling her \u201cdaughter,\u201d Jesus was declaring:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>\u201cYou are no longer just a suffering woman you are My own child, a rightful heir of My Father\u2019s Kingdom.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><strong>Who Are the Daughters of Jesus Today?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Let us reflect honestly: How many women today would Jesus confidently call <strong>\u201cMy daughter\u201d<\/strong>?<\/p>\n<p>Jesus does not call you His daughter because of your age, beauty, social standing, or how religious you look on the outside. He sees the <strong>heart<\/strong>, not the flesh (1 Samuel 16:7). A true daughter of God is one who approaches Jesus with <strong>unshakable faith <\/strong>not as a last resort, not as an experiment, but with <strong>deep conviction<\/strong> that <strong>He alone is the source of life, healing, and purpose<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>If you come to Jesus just to \u201ctry and see\u201d if He\u2019ll work for you like a spiritual gamble you have misunderstood His identity. He is not like the witch doctors or manipulators of your past.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>True daughters of God know who they have believed in (2 Timothy 1:12).<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>They are not hopping from church to church, chasing after every prophet or trend.<br \/>\nThey are not living double lives church on Sunday, the club on Friday.<br \/>\nThey are rooted in Christ, consistent in character, confident in His Word, and <strong>firm in their identity<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><strong>Daughters of God Are Also Heirs<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The benefit of being called a daughter of Jesus is far more than a title it is about <strong>inheritance<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Romans 8:17 (ESV): <em>\u201cAnd if children, then heirs ,heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ\u2026\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Many assume that everyone will inherit the blessings of heaven. But Scripture is clear <strong>only those who truly belong to Him<\/strong>, those who have become sons and daughters through faith and obedience, will receive the Kingdom.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><strong>So, Sister\u2026 Woman\u2026 Daughter\u2026<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Jesus is not impressed by appearances, youth, or charm. He is searching for <strong>faithful daughters<\/strong> who will leave behind the world and cleave to Him completely.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>2 Corinthians 6:17\u201318 (ESV):<br \/>\n<em>\u201cTherefore go out from their midst, and be separate from them, says the Lord, and touch no unclean thing;<br \/>\nthen I will welcome you, and I will be a father to you, and you shall be sons and daughters to me, says the Lord Almighty.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>These are the last days. Christ is returning soon. Are you still wavering, still playing with the world? The gospel today is not a soft call it is a <strong>wake up call<\/strong>. Now is the time to fully surrender.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><strong>Maranatha\u00a0 Come, Lord Jesus!<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Don\u2019t miss the final part of this teaching series, where we will explore <strong>why Jesus also referred to some women as \u201cMother.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Until then, may the Lord bless you and awaken in you the full identity of a <strong>true daughter of the King<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Maranatha!
