Jesus entered the synagogue again, and a man was there who had a shriveled hand. In order to accuse him, they were watching him closely to see whether he would heal him on the Sabbath.

Mark 3:4-12 CSB

NIV KJV ESV NLT NKJV

Then he said to them, “Is it lawful to do good on the Sabbath or to do evil, to save life or to kill? ” But they were silent. After looking around at them with anger, he was grieved at the hardness of their hearts and told the man, “Stretch out your hand.” So he stretched it out, and his hand was restored. Immediately the Pharisees went out and started plotting with the Herodians against him, how they might kill him. Jesus departed with his disciples to the sea, and a large crowd followed from Galilee, and a large crowd followed from Judea, Jerusalem, Idumea, beyond the Jordan, and around Tyre and Sidon. The large crowd came to him because they heard about everything he was doing. Then he told his disciples to have a small boat ready for him, so that the crowd wouldn’t crush him. Since he had healed many, all who had diseases were pressing toward him to touch him. Whenever the unclean spirits saw him, they fell down before him and cried out, “You are the Son of God! ” And he would strongly warn them not to make him known.

Are We Pharisees?

9 Days

James wrote: "... if you listen to the word and don’t obey, it is like glancing at your face in a mirror. You see yourself, walk away, and forget what you look like.” (James 1:23-24 NLT) The Pharisees thought they were obeying the word. I wonder, could this be us? Are we Pharisees? You’re invited to gaze afresh, ditch religion, and grow in the childlike intimacy God desires and adores.

Heal

12 Days

We all carry wounds. Some are visible. Others are hidden beneath the surface. Some are physical. Others are emotional, relational, or spiritual. Some are fresh and raw. Others are old and familiar. The question is not whether we are wounded. The question is what we do with our wounds. Throughout the Gospels, healing is not a side note in Jesus’ ministry. It is central. He heals bodies, restores relationships, confronts lies, and brings life where there was despair. Yet healing is not mechanical. It is mysterious. It requires faith. It requires participation. And it unfolds in relationship.
