When the sun was setting, all those who had any that were sick with various diseases brought them to Him; and He laid His hands on every one of them and healed them. Luke 4:40
When the sun was setting, all those who had any that were sick with various diseases brought them to Him; and He laid His hands on every one of them and healed them. Luke 4:40
Once the word got out about Him, multitudes came for healing and deliverance. No one was turned down, Jew, Gentile, sinner, made no difference, it was all for the glory of God! Jesus is our model for the church today, a sinner's hospital and emergency room for the saints!
Sadly, our modern-day focus is nickels, noses, and numbers and not the ministry of Jesus. Years ago I went to a pastor's luncheon and God gave me a vision of the churches coming together forming a spiritual net over the city and God's anointing would bring revival! But as I listened to their conversations, they boasted about how many they ran on Sunday as if they were herding sheep!
Needless to say, the vision never came to pass because of pride, greed, and competition! We are Christ's body and not our own and His vision and anointing is to spread the gospel. We aren't competing against one another; we are all on the same team!
And Jesus said to them, "I (we) must preach the kingdom of God to the other cities also, because for this purpose I (we) have been sent." Luke 4:43
