Jesus day started Sabbath day in the Capernaum a fishing village at the northern tip of the sea of Galilee. He went into the synagogue and taught. Jesus taught with such authority and zeal he amazed the people in the synagogue at Capernaum. As he taught a possessed man with an unclean spirit in the synagogue cried out to Jesus and said Jesus of Nazareth what do you want from us? O Jesus have you come to destroy us, I know you are God’s Holy One. Jesus, sharply replied back to the unclean spirit. “Come out of him”. The unclean spirit caused the man shake violently and suddenly the spirit came out of him with a blood curdling howl. The people in the synagogue were amazed and the news of Jesus teaching and good works spread all through the galilee region. Jesus traveled to Simon and Andrews home with James and John his disciples. Upon Jesus arrival to Simon’s home, Andrew and Simon share with Jesus that their mother in law is bedridden with fever. Jesus, immediately went to their mother in law and took her hand the fever left her and he helped her to her feet. After the fever left her she began to wait on and serve Jesus. Evening was upon them now Jesus and his disciples. The whole town gather at Simon and Andrew door. The people brought Jesus all the sick and demon-possesed. On into the night Jesus exorcised demons and healed many people of their diseases. The people departed, the disciples, residents of the house and Jesus slept. Very early the next morning, while it was still dark Jesus woke up and found a quiet place to pray to God. Simon and Jesus disciples went looking for him and found him. They exclaimed to Jesus “The whole household is looking for you” Jesus, answered it time to travel to a nearby village so I can continue to preach, for this is why I have come. Jesus traveled throughout the synagogues in the Galilee region preaching, teaching, healing the sick and driving out demons.
