JESUS HEALS MANY

Passage: Mark 1:29~34  

Key verse: 31,34


1. Simon's mother-in-law (29-31)

Jesus expressed his power in love. In his hands was the power that created the universe, but he took the hand of a sick old woman, Simon's mother-in-law and helped her up, and she was completely healed. Her strength returned and she served them with joyful gratitude.

2. The whole town gathered (32-34)

Jesus' day did not end when the sun went down. Sunset marked the end of the Sabbath; it was a signal for everyone to bring their sick and hurting people to Jesus. Jesus welcomed them and healed them. He also drove out many demons. The demons knew him so he would not let them speak. He was their enemy. He did not need their testimony. Jesus' busy Sabbath had begun in the synagogue, teaching the word of God. It ended with crowds coming to him for healing and help. He invaded Satan's stronghold and set many free from his power. His word has power to heal and power to defeat the devil.


Prayer: Lord, let your healing word dwell in my heart and come from my lips.

One Word: Jesus' power is expressed in love
