  • Jesus Heals Many Sick in Gennesaret as They Touch His Garment

    Jesus Heals Many Sick in Gennesaret as They Touch His Garment
    2024/11/23

    Matthew 14:34-36 (NASB)
    And when they had crossed over, they came to land at Gennesaret. And when the men of that place recognized Him, they sent word into all that surrounding region and brought to Him all who were sick; and they pleaded with Him that they might just touch the border of His cloak; and all who touched it were cured.

    Mark 6:53-56 (NASB)
    When they had crossed over, they came to land at Gennesaret, and anchored there. And when they got out of the boat, the people immediately recognized Him, and ran about that entire region and began carrying here and there on their pallets those who were sick, to wherever they heard He was. And wherever He entered villages, cities, or the countryside, they were laying the sick in the marketplaces, and imploring Him that they might just touch the border of His cloak; and all who touched it were healed.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Faith is active and seeks connection with Jesus, even through simple acts like touching His garment
    • Jesus’ healing power is available to all who come to Him with genuine faith
    • Collective faith in a community can draw people closer to God and result in miracles
    • Jesus responds with compassion to those who earnestly seek Him
    • The physical healings performed by Jesus point to a deeper spiritual restoration available to all believers

  • Jesus Walks on Water

    Jesus Walks on Water
    2024/11/16

    Matthew 14: 22-33 (NASB)
    Immediately He compelled the disciples to get into the boat and to go ahead of Him to the other side, while He sent the crowds away. After He had sent the crowds away, He went up on the mountain by Himself to pray; and when it was evening, He was there alone. But the boat was already many stadia away from the land, battered by the waves; for the wind was contrary. And in the fourth watch of the night He came to them, walking on the sea. When the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they were terrified, and said, “It is a ghost!” And they cried out in fear. But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, “Take courage, it is I; do not be afraid.” Peter responded and said to Him, “Lord, if it is You, command me to come to You on the water.” And He said, “Come!” And Peter got out of the boat and walked on the water, and came toward Jesus. But seeing the wind, he became frightened, and when he began to sink, he cried out, saying, “Lord, save me!” Immediately Jesus reached out with His hand and took hold of him, and said to him, “You of little faith, why did you doubt?” When they got into the boat, the wind stopped. And those who were in the boat worshiped Him, saying, “You are truly God’s Son!”

    Mark 6: 45-52 (NASB)
    And immediately Jesus had His disciples get into the boat and go ahead of Him to the other side, to Bethsaida, while He Himself dismissed the crowd. And after saying goodbye to them, He left for the mountain to pray. When it was evening, the boat was in the middle of the sea, and He was alone on the land. Seeing them straining at the oars, for the wind was against them, at about the fourth watch of the night, He came to them, walking on the sea; and He intended to pass by them. But when they saw Him walking on the sea, they thought that it was a ghost, and they cried out; for they all saw Him and were terrified. But immediately He spoke with them and said to them, “Take courage; it is I, do not be afraid.” Then He got into the boat with them, and the wind stopped; and they were utterly astonished, for they had not gained any insight from the incident of the loaves, but their hearts were hardened.

    John 6: 16-21 (NASB)
    Now when evening came, His disciples went down to the sea, and after getting into a boat, they started to cross the sea to Capernaum. It had already become dark, and Jesus had not yet come to them. In addition, the sea began getting rough, because a strong wind was blowing. Then, when they had rowed about twenty-five or thirty stadia, they saw Jesus walking on the sea and coming near the boat; and they were frightened. But He said to them, “It is I; do not be afraid.” So they were willing to take Him into the boat, and immediately the boat was at the land to which they were going.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Jesus is aware of our struggles, even when we do not see Him
    • Faith requires us to step out of our comfort zones and trust in Jesus
    • Doubts and fears can arise when we take our focus off Christ, but He is always ready to save us
    • Jesus’ presence brings peace and calm, even in the midst of storms
    • Recognizing Jesus as Lord changes our perspective and strengthens our faith

  • Jesus Feeds 5,000 Plus Women and Children

    Jesus Feeds 5,000 Plus Women and Children
    2024/11/09
    Scriptures:Matthew 14:13-21 (NASB)Now when Jesus heard about John, He withdrew from there in a boat to a secluded place by Himself; and when the people heard about this, they followed Him on foot from the cities. When He came ashore, He saw a large crowd, and felt compassion for them and healed their sick. Now when it was evening, the disciples came to Him and said, “This place is secluded and the hour is already past; so send the crowds away, that they may go into the villages and buy food for themselves.” But Jesus said to them, “They do not need to go; you give them something to eat!” They said to Him, “We have nothing here except five loaves and two fish.” And He said, “Bring them here to Me.” And ordering the crowds to sit down on the grass, He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up toward heaven, He blessed the food, and breaking the loaves, He gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the crowds. And they all ate and were satisfied, and they picked up what was left over of the broken pieces: twelve full baskets. There were about five thousand men who ate, besides women and children. Mark 6:30-44 (NASB)The apostles gathered together with Jesus; and they reported to Him all that they had done and taught. And He said to them, “Come away by yourselves to a secluded place and rest a little while.” (For there were many people coming and going, and they did not even have time to eat.) And they went away in the boat to a secluded place by themselves. But the people saw them leaving, and many recognized them and ran there together on foot from all the cities, and got there ahead of them. When Jesus went ashore, He saw a large crowd, and He felt compassion for them because they were like sheep without a shepherd; and He began to teach them many things. And when it was already late, His disciples came up to Him and said, “This place is secluded and it is already late; send them away so that they may go into the surrounding countryside and villages and buy themselves something to eat.” But He answered them, “You give them something to eat!” And they said to Him, “Shall we go and spend two hundred denarii on bread, and give it to them to eat?” But He said to them, “How many loaves do you have? Go look!” And when they found out, they *said, “Five, and two fish.” And He ordered them all to recline by groups on the green grass. They reclined in groups of hundreds and fifties. And He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up toward heaven, He blessed the food and broke the loaves, and He gave them to the disciples again and again to set before them; and He divided the two fish among them all. And they all ate and were satisfied; and they picked up twelve full baskets of the broken pieces of bread, and of the fish. There were five thousand men who ate the loaves. Luke 9:10-17 (NASB)When the apostles returned, they gave an account to Him of all that they had done. And taking them with Him, He withdrew privately to a city called Bethsaida. But the crowds were aware of this and followed Him; and He welcomed them, and began speaking to them about the kingdom of God, and curing those who had need of healing. Now the day was ending, and the twelve came up and said to Him, “Dismiss the crowd, so that they may go into the surrounding villages and countryside and find lodging and get something to eat; because here we are in a secluded place.” But He said to them, “You give them something to eat!” But they said, “We have no more than five loaves and two fish, unless perhaps we go and buy food for all these people.” (For there were about five thousand men.) But He said to His disciples, “Have them recline to eat in groups of about fifty each.” And they did so, and had them all recline. And He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, He blessed them, and broke them, and kept giving them to the disciples to set before the crowd. And they all ate and were satisfied; and the broken pieces which they had left over were picked up: twelve baskets full. John 6:1-15 (NASB)After these things Jesus went away to the other side of the Sea of Galilee (or Tiberias). A large crowd was following Him, because they were watching the signs which He was performing on those who were sick. But Jesus went up on the mountain, and there He sat with His disciples. Now the Passover, the feast of the Jews, was near. So Jesus, after raising His eyes and seeing that a large crowd was coming to Him, said to Philip, “Where are we to buy bread so that these people may eat?” But He was saying this only to test him, for He Himself knew what He intended to do. Philip answered Him, “Two hundred denarii worth of bread is not enough for them, for each to receive just a little!” One of His disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, said to Him, “There is a boy here who has five barley loaves and two fish; but what are these for so ...

  • Jesus Heals an Invalid at Bethesda

    Jesus Heals an Invalid at Bethesda
    2024/11/02

    John 5:1-15 (NASB)
    After these things there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. Now in Jerusalem, by the Sheep Gate, there is a pool which in Hebrew is called Bethesda, having five porticoes. In these porticoes lay a multitude of those who were sick, blind, limping, or paralyzed. Now a man was there who had been ill for thirty-eight years. Jesus, upon seeing this man lying there, and knowing that he had already been in that condition for a long time, said to him, "Do you want to get well?" The sick man answered Him, "Sir, I have no man to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up, but while I am coming, another steps down before me." Jesus said to him, "Get up, pick up your pallet and walk." Immediately the man became well, and picked up his pallet and began to walk. Now it was a Sabbath on that day. So the Jews were saying to the man who was cured, "It is a Sabbath, and it is not permissible for you to carry your pallet." But he answered them, "The man who made me well was the one who said to me, 'Pick up your pallet and walk.'" They asked him, "Who is the man who said to you, 'Pick it up and walk'?" But the man who was healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had slipped away while there was a crowd in that place. Afterward, Jesus found him in the temple and said to him, "Behold, you have become well; do not sin anymore, so that nothing worse happens to you." The man went away, and informed the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well.

    Key Takeaways

    • God's grace is not limited by time or circumstances—He meets us in our brokenness.
    • Healing often requires a response—Jesus invites us to embrace the changes He brings.
    • Legalism can blind us to God’s work—we must focus on His mercy and grace over rigid rules.
    • True healing includes spiritual renewal—Jesus calls us to live differently after receiving His touch.
    • Jesus takes the initiative in our lives—He seeks us out even when we do not seek Him.

  • Jesus Heals a Man Who Was Unable to Speak

    Jesus Heals a Man Who Was Unable to Speak
    2024/10/26

    Matthew 9:32-34 (NASB):
    32 And as they were going out, behold, a demon-possessed man who was unable to speak was brought to Him. 33 And after the demon was cast out, the man who was previously unable to speak talked; and the crowds were amazed, and were saying, “Nothing like this has ever [fn]been seen in Israel.” 34 But the Pharisees were saying, “He casts out the demons by the ruler of the demons.”

    Key Takeaways

    • Jesus has complete authority over both spiritual forces and physical infirmities.
    • Miracles require faith—either from the individual in need or from those around them.
    • God’s power often surprises and amazes, but not everyone will respond with faith.
    • Spiritual pride and skepticism can prevent people from recognizing God's work.
    • We are called to bring others to Jesus, especially those who are spiritually or physically bound.

  • Jesus Heals Two Blind Men

    Jesus Heals Two Blind Men
    2024/10/19

    Matthew 9:27-31 (NASB):
    27 As Jesus went on from there, two men who were blind followed Him, crying out, “Have mercy on us, Son of David!” 28 And after He entered the house, the men who were blind came up to Him, and Jesus said to them, “Do you believe that I am able to do this?” They said to Him, “Yes, Lord.” 29 Then He touched their eyes, saying, “It shall be done for you according to your faith.” 30 And their eyes were opened. And Jesus sternly warned them, saying, “See that no one knows about this!” 31 But they went out and spread the news about Him throughout that land.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Faith is essential in receiving God’s healing and blessings: Throughout Scripture, we see that God often responds to faith. In this passage, the blind men’s healing is directly tied to their belief in Jesus' power. Faith is not just about acknowledging God’s existence but trusting in His ability to intervene in our lives. Without faith, it’s difficult to receive the fullness of what God wants to give us. Our faith invites God to work in ways that go beyond what we can see or understand.
    • Recognizing Jesus as the Messiah, the Son of David, is key to understanding His authority and power: The blind men’s cry of “Son of David” shows their recognition of Jesus as the promised Savior. This title acknowledges that He is not just a teacher or prophet, but the one with divine authority to heal and restore. Understanding Jesus' true identity shapes how we approach Him in prayer and faith. When we know who Jesus truly is, we are more likely to trust in His ability to meet our needs. Recognizing Jesus as the Messiah unlocks the power of His promises in our lives.
    • Jesus responds to sincere and persistent faith: The blind men did not just call out once but followed Jesus persistently until He responded. Their persistence was a demonstration of their faith, even when it seemed Jesus was not immediately answering. Jesus honors those who continue to seek Him with faith, even in the face of delays or challenges. Our persistence shows God that we trust Him regardless of circumstances. This story encourages us to never give up in our pursuit of Christ’s help and intervention.
    • Healing often comes in response to our faith, but in God's timing and way: Jesus could have healed the blind men as soon as they called out, but He waited until they entered the house and affirmed their belief. This reminds us that God’s timing in responding to our faith may not always align with our expectations. Sometimes, our faith is tested through waiting, which strengthens our reliance on God. Healing can take many forms—physical, emotional, or spiritual—and may come in ways we don’t anticipate. Yet, when we trust God’s plan, we can be assured that His response will always be for our good.
    • Testimonies of God’s work in our lives naturally overflow, even when instructed to remain silent: After being healed, the men couldn’t contain their joy and shared the news of Jesus with everyone, despite His instruction to stay quiet. This reflects the power of personal testimony; when we experience God’s grace, it’s natural to want to tell others. Testimonies of healing and transformation can inspire others to seek Jesus for themselves. Even when circumstances call for discretion, the impact of God’s work in our lives often speaks for itself. Sharing what God has done encourages faith in others and brings glory to His name.

  • Jesus Raises Jairus’ Daughter Back to Life

    Jesus Raises Jairus’ Daughter Back to Life
    2024/10/12
    Matthew 9: 18, 23-26 18 While he spake these things unto them, behold, there came a certain ruler, and worshipped him, saying, My daughter is even now dead: but come and lay thy hand upon her, and she shall live. 23 And when Jesus came into the ruler's house, and saw the minstrels and the people making a noise, 24 He said unto them, Give place: for the maid is not dead, but sleepeth. And they laughed him to scorn. 25 But when the people were put forth, he went in, and took her by the hand, and the maid arose. 26 And the fame hereof went abroad into all that land. Mark 5: 21-24, 35-4321 And when Jesus was passed over again by ship unto the other side, much people gathered unto him: and he was nigh unto the sea. 22 And, behold, there cometh one of the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by name; and when he saw him, he fell at his feet, 23 And besought him greatly, saying, My little daughter lieth at the point of death: I pray thee, come and lay thy hands on her, that she may be healed; and she shall live. 24 And Jesus went with him; and much people followed him, and thronged him. 35 While he yet spake, there came from the ruler of the synagogue's house certain which said, Thy daughter is dead: why troublest thou the Master any further? 36 As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, he saith unto the ruler of the synagogue, Be not afraid, only believe. 37 And he suffered no man to follow him, save Peter, and James, and John the brother of James. 38 And he cometh to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and seeth the tumult, and them that wept and wailed greatly. 39 And when he was come in, he saith unto them, Why make ye this ado, and weep? the damsel is not dead, but sleepeth. 40 And they laughed him to scorn. But when he had put them all out, he taketh the father and the mother of the damsel, and them that were with him, and entereth in where the damsel was lying. 41 And he took the damsel by the hand, and said unto her, Talitha cumi; which is, being interpreted, Damsel, I say unto thee, arise. 42 And straightway the damsel arose, and walked; for she was of the age of twelve years. And they were astonished with a great astonishment. 43 And he charged them straitly that no man should know it; and commanded that something should be given her to eat. Luke 8: 40-42, 49-56 40 And it came to pass, that, when Jesus was returned, the people gladly received him: for they were all waiting for him. 41 And, behold, there came a man named Jairus, and he was a ruler of the synagogue: and he fell down at Jesus' feet, and besought him that he would come into his house: 42 For he had one only daughter, about twelve years of age, and she lay a dying. But as he went the people thronged him. 49 While he yet spake, there cometh one from the ruler of the synagogue's house, saying to him, Thy daughter is dead; trouble not the Master. 50 But when Jesus heard it, he answered him, saying, Fear not: believe only, and she shall be made whole. 51 And when he came into the house, he suffered no man to go in, save Peter, and James, and John, and the father and the mother of the maiden. 52 And all wept, and bewailed her: but he said, Weep not; she is not dead, but sleepeth. 53 And they laughed him to scorn, knowing that she was dead. 54 And he put them all out, and took her by the hand, and called, saying, Maid, arise. 55 And her spirit came again, and she arose straightway: and he commanded to give her meat. 56 And her parents were astonished: but he charged them that they should tell no man what was done.Key TakeawaysFaith in Jesus' power: Jairus' belief that Jesus could heal and even raise his daughter from death was an essential component of the miracle. His willingness to seek out Jesus in desperation showed his trust in Christ's authority over life. This faith sets an example for us to come to Jesus with our needs, knowing He is able to do far more than we can imagine. The miracle demonstrates that even in the most dire circumstances, faith in Jesus opens the door for God’s power to work. Faith is not merely belief in what we can see but in the unseen power of God.Jesus’ authority over death: The raising of Jairus' daughter clearly shows that Jesus has power not just over sickness, but over death itself. This miracle serves as a foreshadowing of His own resurrection and the ultimate victory over death that He would achieve. For believers, it offers reassurance that physical death is not the final word because Jesus holds the keys to eternal life. His command, "Talitha cumi," proves that death, for Jesus, is only a temporary state, one that can be reversed. We are reminded that in Jesus, there is no situation too far gone for Him to restore life.The importance of believing in the impossible: When Jairus heard that his daughter had died, it would have been easy for him to lose hope. Yet Jesus called him to continue believing even when the situation seemed impossible. This teaches us to maintain faith even when ...

  • Jesus Heals a Woman in the Crowd With an Issue of Blood

    Jesus Heals a Woman in the Crowd With an Issue of Blood
    2024/10/05
    Matthew 9: 20-2220 And behold, a woman who had been suffering from a hemorrhage for twelve years, came up behind Him and touched the border of His cloak; 21 for she was saying to herself, "If I only touch His cloak, I will get well." 22 But Jesus, turning and seeing her said, "Daughter, take courage; your faith has made you well." At once the woman was made well. Mark 5: 25-3425 A woman who had a hemorrhage for twelve years, 26 and had endured much at the hands of many physicians, and had spent all that she had and was not helped at all, but rather had grown worse— 27 after hearing about Jesus, she came up in the crowd behind Him and touched His cloak. 28 For she thought, "If I just touch His garments, I will get well." 29 Immediately the flow of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of her affliction. 30 Immediately Jesus, perceiving in Himself that the power proceeding from Him had gone forth, turned around in the crowd and said, "Who touched My garments?" 31 And His disciples said to Him, "You see the crowd pressing in on You, and You say, 'Who touched Me?'" 32 And He looked around to see the woman who had done this. 33 But the woman, fearing and trembling, aware of what had happened to her, came and fell down before Him and told Him the whole truth. 34 And He said to her, "Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace and be healed of your affliction." Luke 8: 42-4842 But as He went, the crowds were pressing against Him. 43 And a woman who had a hemorrhage for twelve years, and could not be healed by anyone, 44 came up behind Him and touched the fringe of His cloak, and immediately her hemorrhage stopped. 45 And Jesus said, "Who is the one who touched Me?" And while they were all denying it, Peter said, "Master, the people are crowding and pressing in on You." 46 But Jesus said, "Someone did touch Me, for I was aware that power had gone out of Me." 47 When the woman saw that she had not escaped notice, she came trembling and fell down before Him, and declared in the presence of all the people the reason why she had touched Him, and how she had been immediately healed. 48 And He said to her, "Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace."Key Takeaways:Faith in Christ brings healing: The woman’s belief that simply touching the hem of Jesus' garment would heal her shows the power of faith in action. Her faith wasn't passive but active, driving her to seek Jesus despite the obstacles. This reminds us that faith in Christ is a powerful force that can bring about miraculous change in our lives, even when situations seem hopeless. It wasn't the garment that healed her, but her belief in Jesus' ability to heal. Faith, when placed in Jesus, opens the door for His healing and transformative power to flow into our lives.Jesus responds to individual faith: Although the crowd was pressing around Him, Jesus immediately sensed the touch of faith from the woman. This shows that Jesus is deeply aware of those who genuinely seek Him, even in the midst of chaos or a crowd of distractions. His response emphasizes that faith is personal; it's not about the proximity to Jesus or the volume of the request, but about the sincerity of one's heart. This teaches us that even when we feel unseen or insignificant, Jesus recognizes and responds to our personal faith. He is always attuned to the hearts of those who earnestly reach out to Him.Jesus offers more than physical healing: While the woman’s physical healing was immediate, Jesus addressed much more than her physical condition. By calling her "Daughter" and offering her comfort, He also healed her emotionally and spiritually. This interaction shows that Jesus desires to make us whole in every way, not just solving our external problems but bringing peace to our inner being as well. His healing goes beyond the surface, reaching into the depths of our fears, insecurities, and brokenness. Jesus offers complete restoration—body, mind, and spirit.No one is overlooked by Jesus: Despite being considered an outcast by society due to her condition, Jesus took the time to acknowledge the woman and affirm her faith. This teaches us that no matter how society may view or treat us, we are never invisible or insignificant to Jesus. His compassion extends to everyone, regardless of their social standing, past, or condition. Jesus’ attention to her shows that He is not swayed by the opinions of others; He values each person individually and personally. In His eyes, everyone is worthy of His love and care.Persistence in seeking Jesus leads to wholeness: The woman’s persistent faith, even after twelve years of suffering and failed attempts to find healing, ultimately led to her miracle. She didn’t give up despite years of disappointment and worsening conditions. Her story encourages us to remain persistent in our pursuit of Jesus, trusting that He has the power to change our circumstances, no matter how long we have been struggling....
