This Wasn’t The First Time

Chapter 7 and verse 24 ends with these words “he could not be hid.” Now in verse 25 reads of a woman coming to Jesus after hearing, how did she hear? We are told He could not be hidden. But it goes way deeper than that. I would say that this wasn’t the first time this mother had heard of Jesus. No, I would say she had heard of Jesus before now. Don’t forget what we have already read               Mark 1:28 (KJV) And immediately his fame spread abroad throughout all the region round about Galilee. What Jesus was doing and where He was, was being spread fast. So when this mother heard Jesus was in her town she took off and found Him and fell at His feet, but not for herself but on behalf of her daughter. What was wrong with her daughter?  Mark 7:25 (KJV) For a certain woman, whose young daughter had an unclean spirit, heard of him, and came and fell at his feet: She hears and she runs to Jesus and falls at His feet. Great things happen when you realize that Jesus is the only one that can help. Oh you have tried everything you know, except Jesus. Why? If you don’t know Jesus you can’t answer that! You may have heard about someone you know getting what others called saved. But you really don’t know what that means, but whatever it is has really helped others.  You may wonder if I could afford to go to the RBQ Recovery center. But you can’t afford that.          Matthew 19:25 (KJV) When his disciples heard it, they were exceedingly amazed, saying, Who then can be saved? If you look at that word from a human view you see it as a being rescued from some danger. Why do I say that because that’s the way most people view it.  Matthew 27:42 (KJV) He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he be the King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him. This verse is when Jesus is on The Cross. Jesus Saved many from earthly sicknesses yes, but His real purpose reaches much further than that. This life will soon be gone then what? Until next time, have a blessed day.
